Marriage drama

SOPHIA

I glanced at the clock and it was 9:30am

What??How long was I asleep??

I stand up from the bed,stretching myself.i really need to refreshing up I muttered to myself.

Yeah..it's breakfast time...

Good morning Mom and dad!!

I said taking my seat at the dining table and clapping my hands excitedly..

What did we have for breakfast dear..my dad said making me blush at his affection to his wife..I wonder if I can find a love like those two lovebirds. they're love is superb.

Mum and I set the dining table helping her with the little assistance I can render

Everyone started eating in silence, not until dad broke the silence

Emm..princess.. daddy called

Yes...kingie I said sweetly

Which made him smile at him..he continued"you know am a good father and will always find joy for you,you know I won't tamper your happiness"he said making me confusing."sure dad I know you are one of the sweetest dad no one can imagined of,I replied him staring at my mom for any clue why he's saying that but she isn't talking just staring at her meal.making me feel absurd

There was this contract I signed with Ryan company and they wanted to make it into a marriage contract ..I actually have signed the contract before knowing it's a marriage contract.but this contract cost alot of billions.he said rushing his words.

"But dad,that doesn't cost you anything.you can just look for a single employee in your company and matchmake them".I smile unconcerned.

Yes,that what I wanted to do but not until the contact says it should be from my family and that's You"dad said emphasizing on the you

Dad!!! I yelled, slamming the table making mom flinched back,what the hell is that?

Don't tell me it's true dad, marrying me off for a contract? That's impolite dad,You know what? Am outta of here.i said taking the stairs back to my room

I said storming back to my room

Ryan

Am home mom..I said

That's my baby boy,how have you been? She asked still glaring at the movie she is watching.

"M good mom"i said sitting next to her putting off my suit.

"Yes that remind me mom,why did you ask me to make the Michael's contract a marriage contract"i said still baffling about the reason she said that..wait mom who is getting married to whom?? I asked her giving her no chance to explain

Ryan!! When did you start questioning my authority in this house ? She yelled at me seems she is getting pissed off

"Am sorry Mom you should know I always obey your command and also, I was just trying to know the reason you made that decision..I said backing myself up

Well, you're actually the one getting married to the daughter of the Michael's company.she said

What?? I yelled

"Ryan will you shut the crap up and listen to me" she yelled back

But mum that's unfair,you should have hear me out first.m not ready for marriage.i still wants to be eating that delicious food of yours, drilling many hot chicks outside,I haven't even gotten enough babes.i still wanted to be the hottest boy ever mom.i said almost murmuring

And who says you can't do that ?when you get married you can do whatsoever you want to do .. whatsoever you care to do..no one can stop you or did you think the new bride will do? She dare not

Trust me you know am always dear for you "my mum said as she is caressing my face

You know I just wanted you to keep her at home,I heard she is one hell of beauty" my mom continued

But mom won't she report if she see me doing illegal things in the marriage, because I don't want hinder me having fun of my life.i said already getting worried.

She dare not say something of such.i know her father would have advice her cos failure to obey our rules they are the ones to be at loss.mom said

I felt satisfied that why I love you Mom,I said hugging her

Sophia

"Colllle"I yell into the phone.

"Xup princess, calm down,what's the matter you sounds angry?he said trying to make me calm down.

"Bro,am not gonna calm down,like seriously,come and speak to your dad here? He is trying to sell me off for a contract.i said fighting the urge not to cry.

Calm down!!!he isn't trying to sell you off sophie,he had actually explained everything to me.he said calmly but I cut him off

Wow!!! it actually makes sense right,both of you planned it together,I said interrupting him.

It's not like that sophie"he said trying to explain but I hang up on him

So Cole is snitching on me now or i am the one taking the joke too far,dad doesn't looks like someone who can just sell his daughter off

Maybe am the one exaggerating,it may a joke..

It can't be really germane.but I know my dad he doesn't play with his company,he never plays these expensive joke now,I said battling with my mind

I have to free myself from this delusion..

I will just have fun with Bethel,yeah she is the only craziest, funniest best friend I have.

Few minutes*

Am done with my dressing,just a simple blue long gown and a designer palm dad just bought for me,I just love being simple,but my life is complex maybe that's what I think.i grab the car key from the glass table in the room .off I go.

Sophie !!

Princess!! I heard mum called but am just going to ignore her,I don't feel like talking to her she was sitting there pretending not to Know anything when dad was talking to me,I zoomed off,accelerating the car.

Less than 15minutes

Am in bethel's apartment

Sophia!!!!!! I just had to put my hand on my ears to avoid it getting block. I don't need to know the person shouting,I know it's bethel that's what I meant when I said I have the most craziest friend,she is just opposite of me, confident and boldness was her second name.

"Hi bethel, what's up? I questioned even though I sound dumbish

"You don't really have to call my name as loud as that,I don't know when you will be mature enough"I said nagging at her stupidity

"Guess what ?she said almost falling me down and ignoring my complaints

What should I guess or you're also part of the game bethel? I answered almost giving her a knock

"Sylvester proposed to me"she shouted almost ripping my ear off,

Really ? M kind of speechless

Yes Sophie, m engaged now dear

Wow!! My friend is getting engaged while am getting sell off for marriage

What a whack fate!!

I Bursted out.

What?? you are getting sell off as how ? To whom?? Bethel's asked

It was bethel's questions that made me realise I don't even know who I am getting married to?Ashhh..sophie, you're too dumb"I said messing with my hair

Coughs..am lost here, girlfriend who are you getting married to?she ask this time around being curious

"I was matchmake for a contract marriage by dad to this company I don't even know it's name,you know I can't believe it?I have always heard of a contract marriage but I don't think am also going to be a participant"I said still roughing my hair taking all the anger in me on my hair.

Hey girlfriend stop that!bethel noticed while she arranging the hair back with her hands, actually girlfriend you don't have to punch me for what I want to say but it's the truth, promise you won't punch me?she ask making this puppy's face I couldn't resist but something in my heart says she will still gush out rubbish from that silly mouth of hers,I nod my head giving her the go ahead

You know what sophie, your dad made the right choice by marrying you off,just take a look at you,see all the beauty every lady want on you,

Is it long hair?or the curves you have?and yet

No boyfriend, always declining any boy that comes your way,the old man doesn't want you to get old still single or lonely,he quickly finds a solution,she said smiling making a mock out of me.then a thought comes to my mind.

"Yeah she is saying the truth"

wow!! Bethel you are too smart girlfriend,I don't even think that way,high five for you girlfriend I said smiling,she come near putting her hands up which I immediately hold and twist very well to the back

My ..han..ds,Sophia pls..it was an advice girlfriend.she said

Really,an advice to mock me right?

I said leaving her hands,Ash..that bone of your is get alot of calcium these days Sophie,you promise not to touch me?

I promise not to punch you, that's why I go for twisting baby girl..I said

this is another advise girlfriend,i think you should just accept your fate,everything shouldn't be the way you want it to be, thats why we called it "FATE"

Sophia

I arrived home late in the night,because it was fun with bethel that one reason I am addicted to her,I can't be bored with her around. Switching on the shower,making the drop of water fall into different part of my body,i let all worries asides but one thing on my mind is "FATE"so is all what happen to we"human being" Fate?.is it true it can't be changed.if so I will have to put all my fate in God's hand since it's inevitable to change one's fate, Stepping out of the bathroom,I saw mom sitting down on my bed,

Mom,why are you here at this hour? aren't you going to sleep? I said quietly moving next to her I can't sleep Sophia,we can't sleep,we are sorry,your dad is extremely sorry,he doesnt know it's a marriage contract before signing it,we cant dictate your life for you, marrying you off for a contract is awkward.we are going to terminate the contract princess,we can't sell your happiness for our own selfish act,just go and meet your father,he is asking of you since.she said in a trembling voice almost in tears.

"Mom"stop crying,I am sorry too,I said,that's my weakest point,i can't stand seeing my mom's voice trembling because of me,sophia,your mum can't sleep because of you,aren't you turning into a bad girl.i thought Unaware of my situation,I found myself in dad's room,I think while am thinking mom drag me to his room.

" she is here"mom said

Princess am sorry,am extremely sorry for my behavior,I did something wrong daughter am sorry.i was too selfish,I don't remember you yelling at me since you're born untill this morning,am sorry dear,dad said patting me as we hug each other,

i was trying to reach Jane I will terminate the contract,he said.. suddenly a call interrupt our conversation.it was from dad's phone

Good day sir,I saw your missed call sir,I notice the voice is from Jane dad's secretary

Am sorry jane for disturbing you by this hour of the night,I just want you to terminate the contract,that marriage contract of a thing terminate it,he said

Okay sir,but sir,we have already sign the contract,we will have to compensate them for beaching the contract,Jane said

"I will do it dad"I found myself saying

Are you saying something princess,mom said but I just walk up to dad and collect his phone,

"Hi aunt jane"I said into the phone

It's Sophia speaking,you don't need to terminate the contract,good bye ma,I said hanging up

Wait princess!!did you just say yes to the contract,you will do it?dad asked

Yes dad,am going to do it,you can approve the contract,I said walking back to my room

Then,I remember the question,dad,who am I getting married to??

It's Ryan-he said

What??
