Wild People [OLD VERSION]

Part 2

I woke up with first light. My eyes were puffy and I was really tired. Laying in my bed I remembered my conversation and felt devastation inside of me. How can they do it? To force your only daughter into marriage.... I know that I should look for a guy to settle down but I'm just simply not ready for it yet. Atleast they would let me finish my shit degree.

I looked at my alarm clock and saw that it was only 5 a.m. Sigh left my lips and I quickly walked to my bathroom. After my shower and skin care I put my books into my bag and chose my attire for today. I picked black skirt and dark blue shirt with black flats and jacket. I put light make up and some accessories and left my room.

When I walked into the kitchen I froze for a moment. My mother sat there with the cold coffee in her hands. She looked horrible. Her eyes were puffy and I knew she didn't sleep all night. As much as I wanted to hug her and tell her that everything is going to be fine, but I knew it won't.

I walked into the kitchen and her head instantly jerked my way. Her eyes were sad with bad make up. But I just walked pass her. She hurt me a lot yesterday and she knew I didn't forgive others easily. But after this I don't know if I could ever forgive her.

'I'm sorry about yesterday' she said with her hoarse voice but I ignored her. I made myself a cup of tea and couple sandwiches and sat on other side of the table to eat.

'Rose, I'm talking to you' she said with a little bit of anger. I placed my empty cup to the dishwasher and passed her.

'And I'm not talking to you' I said and left her sitting there. I took my bag and left the house even though it was only 6.20 a.m.

I didn't know what to do for 3 hours and 40 minutes so chose to go to the bar and take a drink. It wasn't my favourite place or thing to do but I needed it so I took a pace.

After 20 minutes I walked in and was surprised to see quite a lot of people hanging there. I took a seat in the corner of the bar and barman walked to me.

'What can I get you?' He asked and I looked at him. He was nice looking guy with sand hair and brown eyes.

'Your strongest drink please' I said and put my head into my hand waiting. I was probably more stressed out about my wedding than my exams. After couple of minutes my drink was placed in front of me and I took a sip. I instantly shook from it.

'Wow' I said. This drink was really strong. Barman chuckled.
'Is it too strong?' He asked and shook my head.
'It's fine, I need this booze more than everything right now' I replied and took bigger sip. Soon I was done with this one and ordered another one. I might as well get drunk.

When my second glass came I was a little bit tipsy.
'Is something is wrong?' He asked cleaning glasses infront of me.
'I'm getting married that what is wrong' I replied and saw surprise in his face.
'Married? Shouldn't you be happy?' He asked and took another glass to clean.
'I'm forced to marry' I said and he froze for a moment. Then got back to his work.
'Then why not run away?' He casually asked and my head shot up.

'What did you say?' I asked with my eyes widen.
'Why not run away?' He reasked and I looked at him in surprise. How didn't I think about that before!

Through my drunken state I grabbed him and kissed him on the cheek.
'You just saved my life' I said putting money on the counter and a little bit staggering walked away not before hearing "You're welcome" from barman.

I left the bar in high state. The plan was already forming in my mind. The only thing left is to prepare.
