- Hi dear. Mom's said

- Hi princess my dad's response.

- Princess, we will tell you after the Castro's arrived. Your brother is still in the office so don't worry. - my dad replied

(door open at the restaurant and the Castro's arrived) Andrew's parents and of course Andrew also .

I feel nervous when I our eyes met.

I just hope it's not what I thought. I keep saying in my mind .

Hi Peter and Helen nice to see you. - Andrew's mom said

Hi . Good evening Grace and Philip

let's all sit down.

Let's order and we can talk later.

After ordering we start to eat.

I start to feel someone is watching me then when I raise my head I see Andrew looking at me as if I did something wrong...

But I don't give in and just look at him without emotion.

After eating they start talking about business.

- Andrew how's your work ? Your father said you're taking his position soon. My dad.aid

- it's all set uncle, and it's doing fine..

Andrew replied.

- I think you will be a successful business man like your father.- my dad said

- enough with that .. let's talk about our agreement.!- Andrew's dad said.

-Yes . let's talk about it .. My mom said .

- Jasmin, you're at the right age to know this .so we think that it's time for you to know that we arrange for you for someone to marry when you're still a kid. - my mom calmly said

But I feel confused.. Why they arrange a marriage for me. ?

"Wait! Mom who ? Are you serious about this? "

- it's start 10 years ago when we decided to arrange your marriage.

You're Our only daughter so we want you all the best. - my dad said

but I don't want to marry..

- I am you're gonna marry!

I hear Andrew said.

"what? You! Then I don't want to marry you. Uncle and auntie I'm sorry but I can't" I replied.

I get my things and said sorry also to my parents before going out.

I'm about to go on my car when someone just grab me behind..

I almost scream but when I see who it is I feel more annoyed.

What? I need to go! So can you just let go of me!

-why are you avoiding me? - Andrew said

I didn't.. Why do you say so.. And first we can talk without you holding me.

But this guy did not let me go.. Instead he pick me up like I'm a Bride .. And go to his car ..

I try to get out but he just lock the car after letting me sit on the passenger side.

(inside the car)

Andrew, what's your problem..?

- YOU! and then he just grab me from the neck and kiss me..

I fight back.. I'm pushing him but he's so strong and catch both of my hand ...

he kiss me and I don't want to respond but he just bite my lower lips so I can open my mouth then whisper on me.

- Response on my kisses please.

I didn't know what I'm doing, but I responded on his kiss, and it's start to be passionate likes he like me. But I know he doesn't.

After the kiss he told me to marry him.

- I don't know what I feel for you but I like your kisses and I don't like seeing you with another guy.

- wait! Are you serious.. Are you moving on from jade? Then you want me to marry you..

- yes marry me. Help me to move on.

- But ... I

I'm not finished but he just said something to cut me off

- I want to marry you. we can have a contract so you will not fall in love with me.. And I know I don't love you Maybe just attractions but not love.
