SCARY AND TENSE MOMENT.
I looked into Mark's eyes and he was horrified. I could tell he really didn't like the situation we were in. I was also scared, probably even more than him because after this event, Mark would stab me to death himself.
The crowd shouted louder.
"Why? Just show us some of your love Mark, everyone wants to see you" Shawn continued.
"Hold it!" a voice boomed form across the hall.
We both turned to look at who it was and we saw Mark's dad and mum standing on the staircase. Mark gave a relieved smile. Saved by his dad.
"Now now, why are you bothering the couple like this? Can't you see they are shy? Mark just returned to the spotlight, and my daughter-in-law is a bit shy and timid, I can't believe that the cameras are already on them, have you forgotten the rest of us?"Mr. Diaz said jokingly.
This made everyone laugh. "Let them have their fun" Mrs. Diaz said with a smile. She shifted her gaze to me and smiled.
"OH Look at my daughter-in-law, so beautiful!" she exclaimed. "Both of you! come here and come and greet your parents" she said in a commanding tone.
Both of us sighed with relief and walked hand in hand towards Mark's parents. I was so happy and scared at the same time. Happy because we got out of the situation and scared because if I was going to remain with Mark, how was I going to avoid the situation next time? I sighed and looked over to Mark who maintained his surprised expression at me.
"What on Earth do you think you are doing? Are you really going to create a scandal out of this! Fine! I guess I deserve it but it really doesn't mean you..." He said in a haste.
"I won't do it" I cut him off.
"What did you say?" he said in confused expression.
"I will not do it, not like this, I will not end your life and your reputation just for my freedom, I am really not like that" I whispered hastily to him. He remained silent and looked away. I shifted my gaze from him and looked at his parents who were standing in front of us.
"Hi Dad, hello mum" Mark said.
"My son! how are you dear? You look splendid honey! I see you've been taking great care of Deanne here, look at her! she is really one of a kind" Mrs. Diaz exclaimed excitingly. I smiled shyly.
"Hello dear, I haven't really being able to talk to you or introduce myself. You see, considering the circumstances we were in when we got you two got married, we thought you should have sometime alone for awhile, but now I can see our plan worked and you have totally charmed my son!" Mr. Diaz said happily.
I felt Mark flinched at his father's choice of words. His expression wasn't encouraging or convincing at all. I smiled widely to cover up his behavior.
"I'm Joseph Diaz and this is my wife Mary Howard Diaz" he said proudly.
I could guess she was British before she married him since she had a similar accent. She looked younger than Mr. Diaz and her jet black hair fell gingerly on her shoulders. Her smile gave me a sense of gentleness and love. She walked over to me.
"Oh dear, how are you? I hope you have been taking care of my son, oh of course you have he looks so healthy and delighted! and it's all because of you, thank you so much dear" she said as she hugged me. I felt a twinge of sadness in my heart at her statement. I really wished our relationship was the way she described it.
