"I mean, your choice of picking my cousin, Amelia." Ella said as I closed my door quietly.
"Well, it wasn't my choice but my boss's, so, yeah." Aria said, smiling brightly.
"But what do YOU, think about Amelia?" Ella asked.
"Uh...."
"I think it is a wrong choice, ma'am." Ella retorted.
Aria arched her brows.
"Amelia is a one dirty, clumsy and smelly girl. She will suffocate your boss, trust me."
My heart clenched.
"I am sorry, but isn't that rather harsh to say about your own cousin?" Aria asked.
Ella scoffed. "Oh, please. It isn't. She deserves more. She smells of nothing but fish."
I clenched the sides of my worn out dress as tears approached my eyes.
"Your boss has to rethink it and pick Blanca instead. She is the perfect choice for him." Ella said, smiling proudly.
I fiddled with my fingers to help suppress my tears.
"Blanca is perfect, though." Aria said.
"See?" Ella asked, chuckling.
"She is beautiful, perfect age and has nice blonde hair." Aria said, making Ella chuckle happily.
"My boss loves blondes, you know."
"Really?" Ella asked.
"Yeah."
"Blanca is fully blond!" Ella squealed happily.
"Yeah. But he has already made his choice." Aria said, making Ella's smile fall.
"I am sorry. There is nothing I can do. Amelia it is." Aria said as she looked towards me.
"Oh, Amelia, you are ready!" She said, smiling at me.
I nodded slightly as I looked towards Ella. She is scowling at me. I dropped my gaze nervously.
Her hatred towards me is alarming.
"Oh well, that's awesome." Aria said, standing on her feet. Her expensive and fancy attire made her stand out in our poor looking home.
"Your cousin and I were having a little chit chat." Aria said, chuckling as she looked between Ella and I.
Ella, on the other hand is still scowling at me.
"Since she is the one before you, why don't you make her your maid of honor?" Aria said to me.
Ella scoffed and stood on her feet.
"I will pass!" She blurted, scowling at me before walking away.
I dropped my gaze.
Aria chuckled. "What a bitch. Come on, Amelia. Your fiance is waiting." She said, extending her hand to me. I nervously walked towards her and took her hand. We both headed out. We entered the car and drove off.
Along the way, I thought about what Ella said. She always callo me dirty and smelly. Including Blanca. That's why people hardly associate with me.
They told everyone that I smell. It is painful. My heart aches anytime they call me that. Now, she has said it to Aria.
Aria, on the other hand said that dangerous man loves blond women.
Why did he choose me?
I am far from blond. My hair is completely red. Blanca has blond hair. Why did he choose me?
