Arranged

Chapter 7

Gina POV

I ran outside and just kept walking though it was 7pm this was an elite area so I knew I would be fine. I can't believe he would stoop so low. Bringing another girl and taking her on a date when it was supposed to be our date. We're getting engaged in 2 days. I'm shocked that he asked me to a threesome. I haven't even had sex and he's asking me to do it with 2 other people. Ew. Another being Natasha and a girl. I don't want that, that's nasty.

 I hear footsteps behind me and someone calling my name. It was Mit. Why would he come after me. I did the only logical thing I could do. I ran. I didn't know where I was going but I didn't want to talk to him. I hear his footsteps started to get faster and nearer. He's catching up to me. Hell, no. I start running even faster and all the people around us look at us like we have gone mad. I keep running as fast as I could but I realized I was out of shape. He starts picking up his pace once I slowed down a bit and grabbed me by my waist.

"You know, I'll catch you babe." he whispered in my ear while trying to catch his breath

I didn't say anything. I didn't want to be near him at this moment. I avoided his gaze until he grabbed my chin gently and faced it towards him. He hesitated to say the next few words.

"I'm sorry. I realized that was a shitty move for me to do so I'm sorry." he said. It seems like the word 'sorry' seemed very foreign on his lips.

I kept silence. Even though he said sorry doesn't mean that he won't do this again when we're married cause he did tell me that. It just saddens me that I can't get married to the man of my dreams and have a happy life afterwards.

"I understand you're upset with me but say something" he spoke again

"You know what Mit. I don't want this. I don't want you cheating on me when we get married. I kind of wanted us to try" I said the last bit of the sentence very quietly. What was I saying. I don't know if he'll agree to it. You'll get rejected like you always have with men. Was I that ugly to not be with? The only one was has taken the slightest interest in you was Xavier.  I look at Mit in the eyes. I don't know how I gained the confidence to say what I just said or look him in the eyes. He was a bit intimidating. He just looked at me. I couldn't read his facial expressions because he's good at masking it. I need to learn how he does that.

"I understand. We can call the wedding off if you want. I don't want to force you to get married to me. I can't be the husband you wanted. You're not my type. I like girls like Natasha and I can't settle down. I'm 24. You're young too. What 22? You need to be having fun. That's why I came up with the compromise for us to still have fun. We don't have to acknowledge each other if you don't want to. Anyways I can call my parents up right now and cancel the wedding." he says while reaching for his phone.

"No. Don't do that. " I say. He looks confused. What the hell am I doing right now.

"I don't understand" he says

"I know. Well your family has people coming over tonight. Right?" he nodded. I continue. "And mine come tomorrow. They spent so much on coming to America that it doesn't feel right for them to cancel. Our parents have already spent so much money on us. I've gotten all the dresses for all the events and it's just too much to cancel for our families. I guess we could make this work." I say 

"Are you sure?" he says

"Yes" I say. I seriously don't know what I am doing. I just got the chance to run away from all this but both our families reputation is counting on this. I can do this.

"Okay" he says awkwardly

"Okay." I say. We just look around us in silence.

"We should probably go back" he starts to say.
