My 21st Bday🖤

3-Can't say shocked or surprised

Savannah's pov

He turned around and i got struck noticing his features. Dark brown curls covering his forehead, eyebrows furrowed and outstanding hazel grey eyes curiously staring through my soul. Features like god took his precious time to create this human better than the rest.

He cleared his throat and directed a question towards me, "Are you Savannah Adams?".His lips moved slowly and that's when I focused he had plump pink soft looking lips, sharp chiseled jaw and a tattoo on the right side of his neck. I suddenly remembered he have asked a question and feel embarassed for checking him out.

I mumbled a sorry and said, "umm yess, but no one is home right now you can visit later. I have no cash to repay." As i remembered the end number of people visiting to collect their money from mother, father and ofcourse my sister Julia.

I noticed he was staring me from head to toe. I'm anxious about people judging me through their eyes so I shift uncomfortably. That's when it clicked I'm wearing a full sleeved black plain floor length gown. It covers me completely and my long hair is left open as always.

"Where are they all? And where were you?" he asked me like he was my father. I got irritated as I am not used to the concern that laced his voice when he asked about me."I don't know about them they are usually out after 10 am and return by evening" I replied anyways.

"Okay then we should wait for them, you can continue with whatever you do usually I'll just take a seat over here" he motioned towards the couch and settled down. I was confused as to why he needs to wait here but instead of wasting my time I decided to change and start working before they all arrive.

I went in my room and changed into an oversized black hoodie and leggings. Started with cleaning Julia's room and ended up doing dishes in the kitchen. As there was no noise from the hall I assumed he must have left, tired waiting for them.

I checked the time in the wall clock in kitchen and it read 6:05 pm. As I left the kitchen I heard doorbell and marched towards it but before I even reach close enough to open, the guy from earlier opens the door. I got scared realising he was here the whole time.

My father, mother and Julia scurried in and quickly shut the door behind them. They arrived together which is a shock to me as they never spend a single day being in each other's company. I decided it was my cue to leave for my room so I turned around but heard him say, "don't leave stay here, its regarding you" I got worried about what's going to come next.

"So as decided, Savannah will get married to me as she turns 21 and today is her birthday so we should start preparing for the wedding" I can't say I was shocked or surprised at this point. It was my wedding they were talking about and I knew nothing about it at the same time I just want to get out of this hell already.

My father spoke gravely, "yes sir what is the wedding date and what all should be prepared?" he replied, "preparations will be taken care of and the wedding will take place day after tomorrow. I would like no issues from your end Mr Adams."

He turned towards me, "takecare sweetheart, I'll be back soon" and left through the door. I was dumbfounded and remained still for few mins. That's when mother decided to inform me, "you are getting married to Mr Parker. Don't even think about throwing a tantrum or pulling a stunt, you don't have a choice so just accept it and behave."

I replied with a nod as I was at loss of words. My eyes connected with Julia and she was in fury I didn't understand but decided to leave as everything was feeling too much for my brain to register.
