Suddenly, the crowd began murmuring, whispers filled the room.
Rachel's parents stood up from their seats.
"Rachel, what is this madness!?" Her mother exclaimed. Words tried to leave Rachel's mouth, but they couldn't. She sighed with frustration and stood quietly.
"Do you know how many problems this is going to cause?? What were you thinking!?" Manuel -Rachel's Father- asked threateningly, banging his walking stick on the floor.
Tears start rolling down Rachel's face.
"I know- I KNOW this is what's gonna happen-"
Rachel snaps.
"I NEVER EVEN WANTED TO GET MARRIED IN THE FIRST PLACE!-"
The crowd gasps in shock.
"But of course,, you HAD to get me married off to a rich guy for your own sake.."
The two start to panic. They try to keep calm, but it's useless. It's written all over their faces.
"Tha- That's not true!" Marge scoffed, embarrassed. "That's just nonsense!" Manuel added.
"I knew we were going bankrupt, and I knew you wanted me to marry Percy to help with that, and I tried mum and dad! I really tried...
I dated him, I got engaged to him...I tried liking the things he liked, I tried making friends with his family...it would help us, I know! I tried loving him, I tried being happy...and I was! For a split second I did...but I just- I couldn't shake the feeling that...
...I'm lying to myself
And I mean- Percy's a nice guy! I mean, he's kind, and caring, and considerate...
But...I don't truly love him..."
Rachel chokes back tears, as she stands silently, waiting for a reply.
