Natalia pov

i slowly ate my dinner, i didn't even feel like eating, i was too tired to do anything right now. i had a long day today and all i wanted to do is be on my bed

the double doors that lead to the kitchen swing opened, my mother and father walked in making their way to the diner table i was eating on. they took their seats without a word

my eyes went back to my food

"sweetie" my mother spoke up catching my attention, i looked up at her narrowing my eyes as a response. she just gave me a sad smile "are you busy tomorrow?" she asked making me shake my head

"i don't think so.. why?" i said placing my fork down

"just wondering" she mumbled looking over my father who ate his food "do we tell her?" she asked my father making me confused

i sat up looking over my father as well

"it'll have to wait" my father answered

i bit my top lip nervously, whatever it was i didn't have a good feeling about it. i became worried. i wanted to know what it was now.

"how long??" my mother asked my father. he just looked over at her than at me

i didn't know what they were talking about or planning.

"can i be excuse?" i said. my mother looked over at me with a warm yet small smile. she nodded her head as i got up from my chair and made my way to my room

i threw myself to my bed. it made me nervous when they spoke like i was involved on something. i never liked the feeling

—

a knock on my door woke me up. i sat up looking over at my clock. 9am. i threw myself back to my bed

"come downstairs. we have visitors" i heard my mother say through the other side of the door, i groaned throwing my head back before getting up and walking to my bathroom

visitors?

i brushed my teeth and took a shower. i didn't care if i came downstairs late, it was too early for this shit. i got dressed into a nice decent dress

i finally decided to go downstairs.

there was talking, i narrowed my eyes once i reached the last step and made my way to the diner table

my eyes scanning the table

"natalia meet the polibio's" my mother said introducing the family that sat on the table

there was just two people, a women and a guy, i looked over at my mother and father. i still had no idea what this was, and i really didn't want to know what it was either

"nice to meet you. call me mila" the women said as i shook her hand

i took my seat across from them

a few minutes passed and they were just talking. i just poked on my food.

"you haven't told her?" i heard mila say. i immediately looked up. were they talking about me? my father shook his head in response to mila questioned

"i think now it's the time" mila's husband said to my parents.

my father cleared his throat before he looked at me. i looked at each and every one of them confused. my mother hold onto my father's hand nervously

"natalia" my father said, i looked at him to continue "you'll be marrying their son" my father finished like it was nothing

my eyes widen

i tried looking for words but nothing came out. i was marrying someone i didn't know? i couldn't believe a single thing that just came out my father's mouth

my throat was dry.

"what?" i finally spoke up

"don't over react it" my father said as if it'll make anything better.

"so your forcing me to marry someone i don't fucking know?" i almost yelled. my father looked straight at me narrowing his eyes

"lower your tone" my father said shaking his head

"how can you guys be ok with this" i said in disbelief. speechless, i was speechless. there was no way i was doing that. marrying someone i don't love. i couldn't do it and i didn't plan on doing it

"it'll be worth it. as long as everyone knows you guys are married than it'll just bring nothing but good to us and the family" my father said only making it harder for me to believe it

"that's selfish. what about me? what about him? your just doing it for yourself" i said. i couldn't believe how selfish they could be. for money? for fucking money.

"darlin, it won't be bad" mila said making me look at her

"yeah, cause marrying someone i don't know will be fantastic"
