Damien’s POV
“You are getting married.”
Those words got me jolt up from the chair sending my chair flying back. “WHAT DO YOU MEAN?” I yelled at my father. He flinched at my voice and glared back at me.
“I mean what I say, my son.” he simply stated. “Look you always worked hard to get the company to its best. Now we have the chance my son.”
“What do you mean?” I asked my dad confused. ” One of my friend and I had the idea collaborating the company. And the only way to do that is when you marry his daughter.” he explained.
“Not only that. When you were born, it was already decided that you marry one of his daughter.” he finished.
I started to think about it. If by marrying the girl, I will get my company to number 1 than I won’t care. My company always come to me first.
But suddenly the girl that I met outside the café came into my mind. I quickly shook off the thought. There is no way I will meet the girl again anyway. So why waste my time on her.
Something in me was against the proposal of my father. But the future of company made me say the next words.
“Fine I will marry the girl.” I said instantly regretting. My father looked at me shocked. “You serious my son?” my father asked me confused.
I rolled my eyes at my father’s reaction. “Yes father. If by marrying the girl I can get the company to number 1 then why not.” I answered my father’s unheard question.
He finally recover from his shock. “Thank you so much my son.” he said. “We are going to meet the girl and the family today.” he informed. “Whatever” I muttered and went back to my work.
He exited the room soon. Once he left the room my hands automatically stopped working. I started to reconsider the choice.
I don’t know why but the girl’s face keep coming into my mind. No matter what I do I keep having her disturbing me. Urgh. This is so irritating.
I pushed everything and start to focus on my work.
In the evening
I somehow managed to finish all my work. To say I wasn’t distracted will be an understatement. But I managed to finish everything.
Just then my dad walked into my office. “You ready my son?’ he asked me. “For what?” I asked back confused. ” To see the girl and her family, remember I told you.” he reminded me.
I totally forgot about it. “You forgot about it didn’t you?” he asked with a pointed look. I just glared back at him. “Give me few minutes I will be with you. Wait for me at the parking lot.” I said and started to pack my stuff.
He just nod his head and left. I quickly start to pack my stuff. Once having my table clean, I arranged my stuff. I needed my place to be tidy.
Sooner or later I was done with it. I took my staff and made my way to the parking lot. On my way there, I was keep my thinking about my decision.
There was no chance of me meeting the girl again. She is just some random girl. I don’t even know her name. I know nothing about her.
At least by getting married to this girl I will be able to get my company to number 1. So without any further thinking I made my way to the parking lot. Once I was there I saw my dad waiting for me there.
My Dad and I got in our car and were off to meet the girl and her family.
I don’t know what was I expecting to say the truth. I never thought about marriage or anything. I always focused on my company and business. Now that my dad is making me marry, I have no idea what to think about.
To say honestly all I am thinking about right now is the girl that I met outside the café. She is simply stunning. I am feeling bad for threatening her. I always loved it when people feared me. But when I saw fear in her eyes that was directed to me, I felt odd.
What am I saying? I shouldn’t be thinking about her. Especially now that I am going to marry another girl.
Sooner or later my dad and I arrived at their placed. Their place looked quite astonishing to say honestly. It looked homely from the outside.
We parked the car and head to their doorstep, My dad rang the door bell. We were a greeted by a woman who looked to be in her early 40s.
“Oh my god their here. Honey they are here. Please come in.” she invited us in politely. She gave this warm motherly feel. We entered and were asked to sit down in the living room. Soon a man who looked to be my father’s age came down.
“Albert its so nice to see you.” he greeted my dad while they did their man hug. “Same here.” my dad greeted back.
“Damien is so nice to finally meet you. Your dad have told me so much about you.” he said while he pat my back. We all took our seat.
“Olivia come down darling.” The man called. That’s when I saw a woman coming down. She was wearing a short dress with tons of make up. To be honest she looked more like a cake then a lady.
She came down and gave me a flirty smile. I wanted to roll my eyes. Every girl tries to flirt with me. I always preferred someone who was hard to get. Not barbie dolls.
“Come here and sit Olivia.” he father said. She took a seat in the couch that was beside me. Wow. “This is Olivia, Damien. You and she will be getting married soon.” My dad said. Great. Note the sarcasm.
We talked for awhile. Soon we started to have dinner, done be Mrs knight. Once we were done everyone was indulged in the wedding conversation. While I was thinking about the Café girl.
How it would be to hear her sweet voice. Look into her bright blue eyes, and get lost in them. Pinch her chubby cheeks. Hug her so tight that no air would pass through us. Have her soft lips against mine.
What am I doing. Here I am sitting in the house of the girl I am going to marry and thinking about another girl.
Just then the door bell rang. I got confused to who it was. Mrs Knight went to get the door. “That’s my second daughter.” Mr knight said.
I heard Mrs knight answer the door. “How many times should I tell you not to play in the rain?” she scolded. When she said that I wanted to chuckle but refrained. Wow. The sister seems to be an interesting person.
Just then I heard the most soothing voice in my life. “Mum whose car is outside?” I knew I have heard that voice. Its a voice I would not forget in a billion years,
Just then I saw her enter the living room.
The café girl.
