AHH I'm sorry about the cliffhanger last chapter, I feel bad :,)
It was getting a little too close to my word limit though. This one is too, but I didn't wanna do that to y'all again 😭

But now yall can be introduced to the main plot!!

"I told you she wouldn't react well," dad states, leaning back in his chair.
"Oh, hush. She's just surprised."
I furrow my eyebrows. "I'm sorry— I'm getting married? Is this a joke?"
Mom turns back to me. "No. You're 18 now, the perfect age for marriage, and we've found you the perfect candidate!"
This can't be real.
Dad nods, "He's set to inherit a company that's worth hundreds of thousands— I'm sure you've heard of it."
Oh, so this is about money.
He continues, "Does 'Magnum' ring a bell?"
I've never heard of that in my fucking life.

I frown, "So... wait. Am I gonna meet this guy before we get married? What if we don't like each other?"
Mom chuckles, "Oh, of course you are! And it's alright if you don't like each other. Your father and I weren't too fond of each other when our parents introduced us, either!"
What the fuck?
She continues, "If it continues though, you could always just let him see other women to satisfy his 'urges.'"
...what the FUCK?

Dad hums, "Mhm. You'll actually be meeting him this weekend, we're having his family over for dinner."
I almost choke on my food, "T-this weekend?"
Mom nods, "Yes! Isn't it exciting?"
NO.
"So I... don't have a choice?"
Mom frowns slightly. "...no, you don't. Why? Is there a problem?"
"I... no, not at all..." I look down at my food.
Dad sighs. "Arranged marriages work out better in the long run. Love only gets in the way of things. We're just looking out for you, {Y/n}."
"Of course..."

Just then, the sound of the front door opening and closing echoes throughout the house. We look to the door to see April.
She glares at me, specifically, before stomping upstairs and slamming her door.
Mom frowns in annoyance. "Who does that girl think she is?? I'm not sure if we'll ever be able to find her a husband..." she sighs.
"I'm sure we'll find someone, just maybe not as good as John." Dad grumbles, seeming to care less than mom does.
"John?" I tilt my head.
Mom perks up slightly. "Oh, John is the name of your future husband. In just a few months you'll be Mrs. Doe!"

...What the hell am I gonna tell Josuke?

When dinner ends, I quickly go up to my room, taking out my phone and texting Josuke.
