Her Life Episode 1: Young adult

Kaynine just graduated from high school, she hoped to get accepted into a good university and make her dreams come true.

Who would have thought that she would be getting married.

Mr Davis

I understand that this is very strange for you and I apologize for any discomfort we have have caused you.

Kay

It's OK Mr Davis. Since my family has already agreed there is nothing I can do about it.

Mr Davis looked at the little girl in front of him. She looks so young, you would not believe that she has just completed High-school. It is such a pity that he may have to ruin her plans for her future.

Lawyer

Here is the contract miss Manika

Lawyer

Here is the contract miss Manika .

Kay

OK, I have gone through it.

Kay

I have a few conditions of my own.

Lawyer

You are not in a position to give conditions.

Kay

I am signing away a part of my future. No amount of money can buy that.

Kay

Seeing as I could just as easily end my life as I can live it, I don't see why I can't give a few conditions.

The room is deathly quiet as everyone ponders her threat. Feeling a little more nervous than before, Mr Davis smiles...

Mr Davis

OK, Kay - may I call you that? - what are your conditions?

Kay

First I will study whatever I want and pursue any career I want. Education and a career are non-negotiable. Second I'm only entrusting a PART of my future to your son, that does not mean that I will be dictated by him, you or any of your family. Third my body is my own. I do not know your son and should therefore not be expected to consummate our marriage. He will not touch unless I permit it and I will not be pressured to bear him children.

Kay

I will think of others as I go along.

Once again everyone in the room was left shocked by the young girl in front of them. Mrs Davis looked at her with concealed pity and wondered for the fifth time that day why such a young and beautiful soul should have to go through so much.

Mr Davis

OK, we accept your conditions.

Kay

OK. (with a little more energy and a slight excitement) when do we leave?
