Runaway

CHAPTER 4

Rylie's POV: I woke up kind of excited for the new day ahead of me. I got ready, I went downstairs, and I left the house, but as I was walking out of the door, I saw someone who I haven't saw for a while. My aunt Trisha. She was in her mid 30's so she wasn't that old. She was always the cheery, spoil her niece and nephew type of aunt.

Aunt: "I'm so glad to see you. It's been forever!"

As usual she gives lots of hugs, smiles a lot, ask how I've been doing, and then she goes and greets other people and repeat the same thing.

There is always an aunt that gives you gifts and everything, so she got me an awesome bracelet with pearls, jewels, and awesome charms. I am usually the one to get spoiled a lot and Chris is just there to complain about how I get everything.

Aunt: "Rylie, How is the wedding going? "

"Well, I hate the arranged marriage thing, I think it is dumb. I mean my other friends never  talked about having an arranged marriage, they get to choose whoever they fall in love with."

Aunt: "Well its ok, Jake is not that bad of a guy. I mean, he is handsome, smart, and elegant. I don't think whoever you fall in love with,  is just as good as him."

I hate the fact that she is not taking my side. Usually my aunt is who I depend on the most to agree with me, while everyone else isn't. But, I just try to understand her and try not to turn everything into a mess.

"Yeah, I guess. What would happen if I were to marry someone who is not arranged to me?"

Aunt: "Well, I don't know tha-."

"Well, if you don't know there should be no reason why I am not allowed to marry who I want. Right?"

Aunt: "As I was saying, you would have to talk to your father about things like this. He needs to know what's going on as much as I do. Ok?"

"Okay."
