"Dear are you listening? I told you that you will have a fianće. Arrange Marriage!" Mom said in front of me.
"Okay" I said bored.
"Arrange marriage! Arrange marriage!" Mom cried again
"Mom? Can you stop shouting? It's Iritating." I said calmly.
"That's true love? Why are you shouting?" Dad asked Mom.
"Look at your daughter Jia Chen, she will enter into an arrange marriage and then do nothing? And yet her answer is okay?! I can't believe it?" Mom said continously.
"Mom you react like you're the one who will be in arrange marriage?" I giggled.
"Look Jia Chen! She's laughing! Instead of protesting." Mom said and my dad just shrugged.
"Love before you react let your daughter explain. Xhu xhu can you explain?" Dad said softly.
"Mom, I accept that I'm going to be arrange married." I said smiling.
"Oh my God! I thought you were going to disagree! but this is really unexpected!" My mom squealed.
"That's why I've never been in a relationship because I know I'm going to be arrange married too."
"Really? Maybe because you're too busy learning?" Dad said smirking.
"Ssshhhh dad!" I put my index finger on my mouth, signaling him to keep quite. My dad just laughed and shook his head.
"Will you two stop. I'm curious to what you're talking about. I'm always out of place when you're talking about it." Mom said rolling her eyes.
"Mom I'm fine. I'm ok with your descision that you would let me marry the son of your business partner." I told Mom at once.
"Okay Xhu xhu I'm really sorry but I have no choice, that's your grandfather's command" Mom was almost teary.
"Its ok mom. Maybe we can work out our relationship as you did." I said to my mom with assurance.
Well mom and dad were arrange married but the difference between all arrange married couples, they work out their relationship. And at first she didn't want to accept it, but eventually she did, and mom said that dad didn't seem to be as different as her dream guy.
"Thank you my dear Xhu! You understand us." Dad said then we had a group hug.
After that little heart to heart talk, they left because they had a business meeting. While I was in the room I was thinking.
What does he look like?
Does he have good body shape ?, Anyways i don't care if he has good body or not what matters is .....
Does he have a good behavior?
Doesn't he have a displeasing personality?
I have many questions in my mind right now, though I accept that I am being reconciled does not mean that I have nothing to do with my fiancée.
Beeep bbbeeeppp ...
I was pulled out of my thoughts when my phone suddenly rang. It was a text message from an unknown number.
So? Are you happy on what you did?
Who sent this message?
Who are you?

Reply: What? Desperate?Who are you really? Are you crazy!

HAHAHAHAHA chill Xhu it's Li Wei HAHAHAHA

"Hey! Do you think that's funny ?!"
"HAHAHAHA chill! What the heck am I just playing with you. HAHAHA"
"Are you done laughing? Because if you're done I would drop the call I have something to do."
"Ehem! It's done! Any way is there any news? Hows life?"
"You must not know! I can't tell you a secret jerk!"
"Tsk! Here you are again with being mad.I'm just kidding."
"Ok Bye Li Wei I have something else to do. Bye!"
I pressed the hang up button then I tossed my phone on my bed and went straight to the bathroom to bathe.
What a tiring day.
"Sorry little Xhu this is really urgent so i have to go there immediately please do understand me." Mom explained.
"Mom it's ok I have dad here."
"That's the problem your dad will come with me. We have to leave you alone." Mom said nearly crying.
There she is again with teary eyes.
Kkkrrriinnggg kkkrrriinnggg .......
Mom's phone rang.
"Excuse me first Xhu, ill just pick this up. Just a minute!." Mom smiled and walked away.
After about 4 minutes of waiting,
"This is really a good chance for you to meet your fiancé! Because his parents are also going to states to settle some matters. You would be staying there with him, including the maids. " Mom said continously.
What! I will live with my fianće? Immediately?
"No mom I can do it myself! I can be alone here." I said with the tone of excitment in my voice.
"Dear pack your things. Mrs. Guevara said the car will be here in about 20 minutes to pick you up."Mom said excitedly
What?! She didn't dropped the phone call yet?!
Uugghh No choice left!
I got everything ready after my mom left. They are going to states for urgent business and do not know when they will return. After 20 minutes, a black car arrived. And the driver took my belongings. I decided to have my earphones on my ear while I was in the car.
"Young madam? Wake up we're already here." I woke up when I heard someone calling me I opened my eyes, to be suprised by a mansion in front of the car . I got out of the car and take a look around.
Hmm? They are rich, mansion, swimming pool of around 200 sq. Meters.Ferrari Racing cars (i bet that the son of the owners is a spoiled brat. Or should i call him my fianće.)
Yes our house is big but we do not have this luxury.
"Young madam? Hello! I'm Mrs. Lu. I'm the head of the maids here in the mansion. Come on in." An old woman who was I think in her 50's met me at the door.
"Hello Mrs. Lu!-" I said waving my hand
"-Thank you" I said respectfully. I almost fell down when I saw the inside of the mansion.
It is so elegant and jaw dropping.!
All were expensive, mostly fragile and I think some are from auctions. They are also rare or limited edition products.
"Young madam your suitcases are in your room with young master." A woman with freckled face, who I think is around 30s wearing a maids uniform i think, said to me.
"Thank you! You're still busy please do your chores." I answered smiling.
But your room with young master ?! What? We only have one room?! Don't they have a guest room?
"All right then young madam I have to go. If you need anything please call me." Said the maid.
I just gave her a friendly smile in response.
Since I was doing nothing I decided to go upstairs where the rooms were.
I searched the rooms to see where my belongings were located. As I opened the fifth door at the end, my two suitcases met me. This is maybe the room that the maid was talking about.
I looked around and saw that the motif was black and gray.
There is a king size bed with a side table, a lampshade with lots of pictures framed. I saw a picture of a man and a woman, the man was wearing a wide smile, a genuine one and the woman was frowning with her hand up forming a peace sign.
I would have ignored the picture but there something pushing me to look closer at the picture. I took the picture and looked closely. The handsome guy, in tattered blue faded jeans and white v-neck shirt with matching dogtag, he's raggedly handsome. The woman was in white dress and white high heels that made her look tall.
"Who are you?" I was startled when I suddenly heard a baritone voice from behind me.
I don't know, but suddenly I could feel the coldness in his voice. When I was able to recover from the shock, I noticed that I suddenly dropped the picture frame I was holding. The glass of the picture frame broke into a thousand pieces.
I quickly pick up every piece of the broken glass.
"Shit!" I stopped on picking the glasses when a hand took the photo on the floor.
When I look up I was surprised again, the man in the picture was actually him.
"I said who are you?" He raised an eyebrow.
"Ah..eh .." why am i nervous?
"What are these? -" He asked pointing my suitcases.
"- Madam Lu, who is this woman in my room ?!" He shouted.
A minute later Madam Lu came in the room.
"Ah Young master Jiamu? -"
So Jiamu is his name huh? Infairness his name is handsome as well as his face.
"-Didn't madam tell you-"
"Sir I am your new maid." I cut off what Madam Lu said.
"I'm sorry I was lost.I'm sorry I broke this picture of you."
I bow down as my knees were still on the floor.
I didn't know what was happening to me and I told that to him. Suddenly I was nervous on the thought that Madam Lu would tell him I was his fianće.
"But young-" I cut off what Madam Lu had to say.
"I'm fine Madam Lu, thank you and sorry for being disturbing you" I stood and clean up my clothes.
"All right, please clean this mess Madam Lu. And you--" he stopped pointing me.
"- be careful next time you don't come into my room and I might fire you here" He said with his eyes filled with anger.
My gosh! I pulled out my two suitcases and went straight to the guest room I had passed by.
Bbeepp.. Bbbeeppp
"Hello mom?"
"Have you been there little Xhu? Are you ok?"
"Yes mom I'm fine. How about you guys?"
"We just got in the airplane. Alright dear I just called to be sure if you get there safe. Take care Xhu! I love you!"
"I love you too mom" I answered and dropped the call.
I put my phone the pocket of the ripped jeans I was wearing and picked up my suitcase and put it on the bed.
