It is my time to pick. I only have an hour left to pick. I had my idea and I know that you already know who is the boy that I'll pick. I walked to the crowd when suddenly......
"Hey!" my Grandmother said that made me snap out of my thoughts. "Yes?" I replied to her as I forced a smile. "Have you made your final choice?" she asked. "I guess....." I said but I'm not sure. Actually, not yet. Remember you made this an on the spot marriage. "Good then do the final thinking and decide. I will pick the rich ones if I were you. Follow your heart's desire." she whispered. "So now you are saying that to me now?!'' I said with a sudden outburst. Everyone's attention was on me. They stood with there mouths widely opened. "I just want the best for you!" she shouted back. "No you want the best for the status thing cause your social status was so high and you want mine to be the same!" I shouted with my fists clenched. Her mout dropped open and with that I started to walk away. I saw Austin watching at the door. I grabbed his hand and he fllowed. "Take me away." I whispered to him. "Rachelle! Come back!" my grandmother shouted as she clutched her chest using her hands. "Fuck off!" I shouted. Too bad, I can't take that back. I ran outside with Austin but my feet stopped when I heard the panic in the crowd. I turned and saw my Grannie. She's having a heart attack. "Ambulance!" was all my mother shouted cause she's worried. Austin and I dashed back to check.
My grannie was brought to he hospital. "Grannie!" I called but she was sent inside and I could not come in. They said that I'll cause stress to her. Mom went out. "We'll stay here. Your grannie is okay now. Why don't you go home and rest. You have to deal with the company." she said smiling half heartedly. I just nodded. "She also said that you could pick any of those five on your own. The wedding will be next year. She's giving you time to meet them all. They will all live in a house with you for the whole year so Good luck." she continued and before I could retort she went in the room. I just rolled my eyes and Austin laughed. He wrapped an arm around my shoulder and guided me to his car. I gave him the direction to my house.............I mean my Grannie's mansion.
"Come on." I invited him to go in and stay for a while. He followed. "I'll change for a while.'' I said as I went upstairs. I changed to a cotton over sized shirt and shorts. ''Want to watch a movie?" I asked Austin. "Yeah, sure." he said. "Where?" he asked. "In my room." I said pulling him. "What do you want?" I asked. "Sky high. I did not watch that before.'' he said and I nodded. I got on my bed and he got on the bed as well just like what we do before. Sky high was so awesome. I ordered pizza and it arrived after thirty minutes. The movie ended. ''I should go now." he said as he stood. "Please stay." I whispered holding his hand. "Okay." was his reply. "Want to tell me something?" he asked. "I know that you witnessed my outburst a while a go." I started and he gave a nod. "It is because my grannie always dictated everything. I can't even choose on my own." I said trying to hold back the tears. "I'ts okay." he said hugging me. His hug was comforting and relaxing. "Why does she have to dictate me?" I asked as tears kept falling down my cheeks. "I don't know but it will be okay soon." he replied. "and now after her heart attack, she still wants to push through this on the spot marriage she planned." I continued. "Just rest cause you deserve some break." he whispered.
The next day I woke up to see myself wrapped in Austin's arms. my head was rested on his chest and it was comfortable. I stared at him like a creeper for about thirty minutes. He suddenly opened his eyes slowly meeting mine. "Good Morning Beautiful." she greeted hugging me tighter. "Good Morning to you too." I said as I blushed. He kissed my forehead softly and we hugged mor for five minutes. "I have to go to our company." I said as I remembered. I took a bath and got dressed. I heard someone cooking so I ran down and I saw Austin cooking. "Here." he said handing me a plate of eggs and hot dogs. We ate together and he rushed to his car. "I'll change for a while and help you with your day at work." he said with a wink. He went out wearing an office attire.
We got in his car and he drove. It was a Mustang and it was blue. "How come you have extra clothes in your car?" I asked looking at him. "I am an actor. I always have clothes." he said. "Don't you have a shooting or something?" I asked. "Well nope but tomorrow there will be. Want to go with me?" he asked. "That will be nice." I said with a smile. "I'll give you a tour at the set." he said with an obvious excitement in his tone.
We got to the building. As we walked in I noticed the employees looking at Austin. Well, I forgot he's an artist. "Good Morning Ma'am!" they all greeted me. One of the girl employees tried to flirt Austin that made me really angry. "Excuse me but I pay you to work not to flirt with him." I said to the girl. "Sorry ma'am." she said and walked back to her desk. I pulled Austin to my office. "Someone's jealous." he teased. I smacked his arm and he laughed. "No need to hurt me just tell me that you really are jelous." he teased. "Seriously?!" I retorted. "I'll work and you will-" I continued but he cut me off. "will help you." he continued.
After all of those working things, I was really tired. Austin and I went to his house. He got some clothes cause he will start to live with me like the other four boys. This is crazy, right? Even the five of them are handsome, I don't care. Well, it is true all of them are handsome. I don't know what to do to this awkward thing. I'm not that desperate to find a husband. What should I do? I was comfortable with Austin but not with the other four.
