Julls POV
"Julie, this is a done deal" my father says calmly, did you notice how I didn't use dad there? , well that's because I don't recognize this man as the same man who loves me. I would admit that he normally pampers me more than he should and I trust him with my life but right now I'm so confused. He surely would never allow mother to sell me off like this.
"I'm sorry my gem, please try and understand the family really needs this, yes you haven't been involved in the business but you are part of the family Julls" he pleads with me and I'm dumbfounded. How could he?
"no, this is just wrong" I say already feeling sorry for myself. You know I didn't choose this family because if I had a choice in the matter I promise you, I wouldn't be in this position.
"my precious gem I know this is not what you wanna hear but please atleast try being positive you might grow to love Antonio" he tries to encourage, key word "tries"
I mean the guy has the looks yes but his a douche, nothing can ever encourage me enough to have some positive view on being his wife, argg.... Just the thought of it gives me a migraine. But knowing him he would never agree to this, I mean he doesn't like me as much as I don't like him, so I begin to have some hope. See this guy is way older then me so he attended school with my brothers but we have had a few encounters so I drew my conclusion from there.
"he will never agree to this" I say hopeful,
"He was in the meeting and he already agreed" my father crushes all my hopes and I'm left defeated. What is his problem?, did he have a secret crush on me or what? Or my mother also bullied him to agreeing?
"ohh... so he gets to consent and I don't?" I ask but it really came out as an observation and my dad gives me the guilty look while his wife remains void of any emotion.
I quietly take my leave with my heart feeling heavy not even caring about the fruit salad anymore.
I make it to my room finally, I get in, close the door and lose my shit right there. I fall to the floor and cry, I cry, I couldn't stop crying, I cried for a long time that i was left drained I couldn't move from the floor even when I was done I kept sobbing there until I fell asleep.
The cold floor woke me up after about 2 hours of my nap on the cold floor, it's already in the evening. I woke up with a bad headache, I make my way to my bathroom and catch my reflection on the mirror I look so pale with very puffy eyes and this just reminds me of my demise and I can't stop the tears from falling again. I forgot what I was doing in the bathroom in the first place and went to bed still sobbing.
A knock on the door interrupts me but I pay it no mind.
"my gem" my father calls from the door. I'm certain they heard my breakdown that's why he's here
"go away" I respond softly in between my sobs and my tears come back in full force, I feel so helpless and I hate this feeling. I had moved out of my family home very early because I was miserable here especially on the days where my dad was away on business.
The man refuses to listen me as he opens the door and make an appearance and that just gets me mad that I shout at him for the first time in my 19 years of existence "GET OUT OF HERE I DON'T WANNA SEE YOU" I shout.
My father looks so torn that my heart breaks more, the man just sold me off and all he can do is stand in front of me looking sad? Ohh wow. If I wasn't in so much pain I would probably be feeling sorry for him but just now I only feel sorry for myself more but I try to reign my tears back.
He scurries out of my room, just as he closed the door I fell back on the bed and cried again. This is the most I've ever cried in a long time, I think the last time I cried this much was when I was 11 years old after mother shot my dog dead. My dad had bought me that dog for my 9th birthday. What's worse today is that it's the person I trusted the most who's caused me so much pain. If it was just mother maybe it would have been better but him?, no.
After 30 minutes I finish crying and remain motionless on the bed until I'm disturbed by another knock on the door of which I don't even bother finding out who's there, I can't bring myself to care so I shout "go away"
The chef, Maggie responds "Julls I have your food please eat something" she has always cared for me and I feel bad for shouting at her.
"Maggie im not hungry thank you" I say out loud since she's outside and I get a very defeated "okay" before she goes. Just soon after she knocks again
"Julls, I have some medication for you can I please come in?" She rings, I refuse her gently telling her im good and she gives up and go only to be back again in 3 minutes. She opens the door and gets in with the food and medication in a tray. I hope you all can see my father's fingerprints here, Maggie cares for me yes but now I can tell she's being sent.
"Maggie please tell my father to leave me alone" I respond and she tries to deny it but I say nothing and she gives up. Maggie places the tray with food and medication on the bed side table and leaves and I decide to lock the door after her so im not disturbed in mourning my life. I don't bother myself eating and taking the medication why should I care?, my life might as well be over. I have nothing worth fighting for in this life. I really am not hungry.
