The Arranged Marriage

Chapter 1

I'm walking going through the hall to get to the kitchen when all of a sudden I hear a loud yell coming from my mothers room.

Mom:what do you mean I'm BROKE!!!

lawyer:I'm sorry ma'am but your broke.

Mom:I cant be broke.

Lawyer:I'm sorry but your husband left you nothing.

Me:What!!?? Me and mom are broke but how.

Before my father had died my father would always tell my mother he would leave everything to her

Me:*sighs* what are we going to do about my school and this house, whats gonna happen since me and mom have nothing??

Me:I walk away from the door to the Kitchen.

Mom:Oh hey Y/N how are u??

Me:hey mom I'm good, and you??

Mom:I'm good baby.

Me:Good

Mom:Y/N I have to tell you something.

I already know what she was gonna tell me I just had to act sad.

Me:What is it mom?

Mom:Come and sit down

*We walk over to the couch to sit down*

Mom:I have something that will break your heart.

Me:What is it???

Mom:umm baby me and you dont have any money in the bank so were broke.

Me:I pretended to look shocked and sad. MOM!! what do you mean were broke.

Mom:I was just as shocked as you, but according to your dad lawyer in his will he left us nothing.

Me:So who did he leave it for???

Mom:He wont tell me, but I don't get why your father doesn't leave everything to me I have been married to him over 20 years.

Me:What about my school??

I go to this really preppy school were only rich kids go and that school you have to pay a lot of money to go. The tuitions there are ridiculous.

Mom:Your just going to have to drop out and go to a pu-, sorry your going to have to go to a pu-, what I mean is your going to go to a new school for free.

Me:what about you? What about our maids and butlers and this house?

Mom:I would have to get a jo- sorry but what I mean I have to work, the maids and butlers would have to work someplace else and this house we cant live here anymore.

Me:WHAT!! We cant live here anymore.Why not???

Mom:Because your father wanted it to be sold to the realtors.

Me:For what??

Mom: I don't know he just wanted it to be sold and at the time when he said that I thought I could buy us a new but smaller home since it would be just the two of us.

Me:So now were homeless??

Mom:No were going to live with your aunt Cathy.

Me:Aunt Cathy, I haven't seen her in 3 years.

Mom:well she has agreed to us living with her so next week we will be moving in with her.

Me:When am I going to start school?

Mom:Maybe next week the day after you move in.

Me:ok, I'm gonna head up to my room.

Mom:But dinner is almost ready.

Me:Sorry mom but I have lost my appetite, I'm just gonna go to bed.

Mom:Ok baby sweet dreams.

*Walking up the stairs heading towards my room*.

When I get to my room I just slide down the door and just start crying

Me:How can this be??

I head towards my bathroom and take a shower, when I'm done taking a shower I put on my expensive face mask and put on some product on my face so no pimples would form, once I was done I climb in my bed.

Me:How can my father leave us nothing, how could he leave us homeless??

While thinking of it I drifted off to sleep.
