Lily was a little girl
Afraid of the big, wide world
She grew up within her castle walls
Now and then, she tried to run
And then on a night with the setting sun
She went in the woods away
So afraid, all alone
They warned her, don't go there
There's...
THE RING IS SOO HUGE. I TOOK A LOOK AT IT FOR THE TENTH TIME.

"LILY CAN WE GO." HE ASKED.
HE GRABBED MY ARM LEADING ME OUT OF THE ROOM .
HE DIDN'T EVEN ASK ME WHETHER I WILL MARRY HIM. NOT LIKE I EXPECTED THAT FROM SUCH RUDE MAN.
" WHAT IS THE RING FOR." IT SLIPPED OUT OF MY MOUTH.
"YOU ARE MY FIANCEE NOW." THIS GUY MUST BE CRAZY.
"LET'S GO." HE SAID.
I SERIOUSLY WANT TO CRYING RIGHT NOW. WHAT DID I DO TO DESERVE THIS? I DIDN'T WHEN A TEAR DROP SLIPPED DOWN MY EYE. I QUICKLY CLEANED T BEFORE HE NOTICED I DON'T WANT HIS SYMPATHY.
ALEXANDER DRAGGED OUT A SEAT FOR ME. WHAT A GENTLEMAN?I STILL HATE HIM.
I KEPT ON STARING AT THE EMPTY PLATE.THIS IS STUPID EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS HOUSE IS STUPID.
HIS FAMILY MEMBERS STARTED TROOPING IN ONE BY ONE.
NOW I SAW WHERE HE GOT HIS DARK SKIN FROM AND HIS PINK LIPS. HIS MOTHER IS SOOO CUTE. BUT HE LOOKS NOTHING LIKE HIS SISTER OR FATHER.
"LILY, THIS IS MY MOTHER MELINDA BERLING." HER SURNAME IS DIFFERENT FROM HIS. HIS' IS KNIGHT HER'S IS BERLING.
" THIS IS MY SISTER ELENA KNIGHT." HE SAID.
HE KEPT ON INTRODUCING HIS FAMILY MEMBERS.
" THIS IS LILY BLACK MY WIFE TO BE." HE SAID. IMMEDIATELY HE SAID THAT I REBUKED HIM.
" NICE TO MEET YOU LILY." HIS MOTHER SAID.
"SAME." I SAID WITH THE BRIGHTEST SMILE ON MY FACE.
" CAN WE EAT ." HIS SISTER YAWNED.
AS WE ATE HIS FAMILY MEMBERS KEPT THROWING QUESTIONS AT MY FACE. SOME ANSWERS WERE LIE AND ALEXANDER KEPT LOOKING AT ME WHEN I THREW A LIE BACK AT THEIR FACE AND THEY SEEMED TO BELIEVE IT.
"WHY IS THAT YOUR SURNAME IS NOT THE SAME AS ALEXANDER'S OWN." I ASKED. EVERYONE STOPPED EATING AND LOOKED AT ME LIKE I SAID SOMETHING BAD.
HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO KNOW I SAID SOMETHING WRONG WHEN ALEXANDER TOLD ME NOTHING ABOUT HIS LIFE.
" ALEXANDER BIOLOGICAL FATHER IS DEAD." THAT WAS ALL ALEXANDER'S MOTHER SAID.
THAT ONE STATEMENT MADE THE ROOM TO BE FULL OF SILENCE. WE ARE DONE EATING AND HIS FAMILY MEMBERS STARTED LEAVING BUT HIS SISTER, HIS MOTHER AND FATHER WERE SPENDING THE NIGHT.
I WALKED INTO MY ROOM AND GRABBED MY PHONE. SEEING TEN MISSED CALLS FROM JULIE.
