Samantha's POV

I quickly gather my things. Another successful Broadway show of Oliver. I walk out into the cold night. I suddenly bump into someone's chest.  

"Watch where your going!" The man snaps. 

I look up to see icy blue eyes and perfectly coiffed golden brown hair. He reminds me of someone in my childhood. 

"Do I know you?" I squint to look at his features. 

"Do I look like I know you?" He scoffs. 

I shake my head and scurry off. Well, he was rude. He almost reminds me of my childhood bully. The same golden brown hair, crinkles near his eyes. Except Aaron was lanky and skinny unlike this guy who had a muscular build. I watch the man walk into the Broadway theatre. What could he be doing? I shake off the thought just as my phone rings.  

"Hello?" 

"Hey Sam, it's mom."  

"I know" 

"How do you know?" 

"Because I have your caller ID." I roll my eyes. 

"Oh, well anyways, you need to come home right now." 

"Why? Is there something wrong?" I search for my car keys in my purse. 

"I have something important to tell you."  

"Mom, your freaking me out! Why can't you just tell me over the phone?" 

"I guess that will work." I sigh in relief and collapse on a bench. 

"Your father and I have chosen a husband for you." 

"What?" I scrunch up my nose. 

"A husband, sweetheart. We've made a promise with his parents since you were a child. He's a very handsome and mature man, I'm sure you'll like him. You knew him when you were little." 

"Why can't I fucking choose my own husband?" I curse. 

"Watch your language, missy! I need someone to protect you! Your old mother can't take care of you anymore! Think about it! This was what your father wanted!" 

My father had passed away when I was 13. 

"Mom, I'm fine by myself!" I argue and bite my nails. 

"No you're not, we don't want to see you getting hurt anymore!" My mom's says with a stern voice. 

"I should be able to control my own life!"  

"You're coming over at six tomorrow to meet him. No exceptions. Do you hear me Samantha Jane Barks?"  

I groan,"Yes mother" 

She hangs up and I groggily drag my butt to my car. I hope my future husband won't be a jerk.
