Forced in an Arrange Marriage...Oh Shit!

My Dream or Reality

My Dream or Reality

I woke up abruptly, from the sound of someone banging loudly on my door.

‘UUUgghhh…..Come in, Im up!’ I yelled in response

‘Sorry Miss Sarah, for waking you up, but it is 8am and I need to get you ready for breakfast’ said the girl

‘OKayy…but who are you?’ I asked with genuine curiosity

‘Oh, my apologises Miss Sarah, my name is Elisa…I am your personal maid.’ Said Elisa in a humble tone

‘My personal maid? But I don’t need a personal maid. I am very well capable of taking care of myself’ I replied with a harsh tone

‘I..I am sorry Miss, I do not intend to upset you. But it is my job to be with you all the time, Mr Anderson appointed me.’ Elisa said in a hushed tone, like she was afraid I would yell at her

‘Oh….did he? I guess I can’t argue with Mr Anderson then’ I replied with frustration

‘How about I help you get ready for breakfast….the entire Anderson family is waiting for us and your future husband too’ Elisa said in a rush

Suddenly everything that happened last night came rushing back to my mind. The gorgeous boy, no gorgeous man that I met last night. But did I meet him…was he real…or a dream. The last thing I remember doing for sure was reading in the balcony, and I woke up some how in my bed. How is that possible. Unless, the gorgeous man who claims to be Nate…carried me to my bed. OMG..he carried me?! How embaressing. Gosh..he was sooo sexxyy…that body and those eyes…ohhh those eyes…beautiful sea green coloured eyes. STOP SARAH! SNAP out of it! I scolded myself.

But what if I was imagining things….what if that wasn’t Nate. Maybe it was all a dream. It had to be a dream, there is no way a player like Nate would be happy to see me after knowing that we are in an arrange marriage. No bloody way.

I could feel a headache coming on. I gently pressed my fingers to my temples. Trying to stop the pain. I had so many questions and no answers. It was incredibly frustrating. Gahh!

‘Ohh Miss…is everything okay? Would you like me to get you some medication? Elisa asked in a caring tone

‘Ugghh…No thanks…I don’t think there is any medicine that can help take this headache away’ I replied sadly

‘If you say so Miss, how about I get your clothes out, whilst you shower?’ Elisa asked carefully, trying not to upset me again.

I let out a deep sigh before replying ‘Okay Elisa, But on one condition’ I said firmly

Elisa looked at me with confusion dominating in her eyes

‘You will not call me Miss or Mam, my name is Sarah and that’s what I want you to call me’ I said with a kind smile and a tone of finality in my voice

Elisa let out a broad smile, that made every feature in her face shine with happiness.

“Of course Miss—I mean Sarah!’ Elisa replied happily

I smiled right back at her, thinking that maybe Elisa and I could be good friends too. Wow, I was really on a ball, I had made two friends in the past two days. It was a great feeling.

Elisa, started to go through my new wardrobe, trying to find the right outfit for dinner. She was so busy finding the right clothes, the expressions of confusion were evident on her features. This was a new experience for me, no one in my entire life cared about what I wore, or how I looked. And now, suddenly I had a personal maid who was stressing over the clothes I should wear for dinner. For me, all this was unbelievable, it felt like a dream-no more like a nightmare, that I was stuck in and no matter how hard I tried I just couldn’t wake up.
