I was sleeping peacefully in my bed. Sunrays kissed my cheeks as I squinted in the bed and finally woke up. It's just another normal day but who knows this day will change my life.
I went downstairs to have my breakfast as I intruded on my mom and dad's discussion "good morning!!" "Good morning my dear Rose!!!" My dad welcomed me with a big smile "what conversation was going o
n here" "Rose… it's all about your marriage" "marriage?" "Dad, how many times should I tell you that I don't want to get an arranged marriage? I want to date and love someone and only then I'll marry him ""Rose just stop this nonsense already, 3 years passed and still you are saying the same reason" your mom yelled at you "mom bu-" "no buts. We arranged a groom, get married to him, don't tell us some silly reasons. "Dad? I don't even know him, how can I?" " Don't worry dear it's my friend's son they are also very rich family they own "Even' sgroup' and he is also a good looking ,CEO of Even's" I sighed "ok it's getting late to my work we will discuss about this on evening " I changed the topic and stepped out "Rose" your mom stopped you "They are coming to our home today to meet you so don't be late" "mom!!!" "just don't say anything," I shrugged .came to my work
And by the way I'm Scarlett Rose. I don't have siblings.
I grew up in a small town and moved to Manhattan when I was 19. Now I'm 26. My dad "Christian Fernandes' ' is a top businessman in New York and he owns 2 companies but I'm running a small Startup I don't get much income but I'll make it one day. It was my dream to start a business on my own. My dad forced me to work at his company after my studies but I had no idea and ended up here at a small building to build my career.
My mom "Olivia Elizabeth"is a social influencer and sweet mom.
My life was quite simple, and peaceful!
Until,the whirlwind called "marriage" came up.
Isabella, my best friend since my childhood. We both finished our studies in the same school and university. Now we are working here. She got married last year to her boyfriend .
At cafeteria,
"Isaaa... how can I marry a stranger??"
"Rose, listen, you've already started your career. It's a perfect time to. the guy you were stalking, he also has a girlfriend. just get married to him," I pouted sadly and nodded my head.
Everything puzzled me. I came home and a car was parked in front of my house. "I think they arrived soon" I went in and as I thought they were sitting inside, I went to my room and refreshed myself and came down "Rose introduce yourself" my dad said.
"Hello! I'm Scarlett Rose
""Hello sweetheart, he is Mr.Francis Evans and I'm Mrs.Sophia and unfortunately our son had an urgent meeting so we came to see you .
"you are really pretty" she complimented
"Oh Thank you" I smiled at them
"My son agreed to this marriage"
Their visit was weird to me.
Somehow my parents convinced me to marry. I don't know if I was satisfied with this or not but, to me, my parent's decision is more important to me than anything. They gave everything I wanted. I don't have a good reason to deny this marriage,I don't have a boyfriend sadly I didn't have anyone in the past too, I had a crush on a guy in college but I'm not that lucky now, he has his girlfriend there is no way to escape so, I agreed. Everyone was happy except me.
Time was around 10 pm I can't understand what's happening around me, I don't even know his name but they already fixed my wedding date "Ufff" you sighed and drifted off
2 weeks skips
The great "Hendry Evans" CEO of Even's group and his mom sent me his pic and number Yet I haven't talked to my future husband, I saw him few times while shopping and family gathering but he always will be in a rush he come late and go soon he haven't glanced at me in these days. He is handsome to be honest but how will his appearance tell you about him? Our wedding will be held tomorrow. I hope my married life goes as I dreamt.
On occasion day
Both families were rich so the wedding arrangements were also royal and beautiful. The wedding arrangements were super cool and fantastic. Everything was perfect except my heart.
I wore a very big and elegant gown and came to the aisle with my dad. where a man was standing with a perfect black suit, dark brown eyes in front of the priest. He didn't even give a glance at me. I felt like I were standing near a rock
Priest: Do you take Scarlett Rose as your wife?
Hendry: I Do
Priest: Do you take Hendry Evans as your husband?
Rose: I Do
Priest: Now , you may kiss the bride.
My heart started racing " I don't even want to marry a stranger then how could I ki-kiss him" he came closer, i were shivering and sweating as he placed his soft lips on my cheeks everyone cheered for us and my face turned red.
And that's how it started!!!!!
