ADRAIN'S POV:
It has been months since I visited my parent's house. I do love them but, I liked being alone, which is why after college I moved into my penthouse. I don't like coming home because, my parents always nag me about settling down and giving them grandchildren but, that was far from my plans now. I have no intentions of getting married or having kids anytime soon. It's not that I have a problem with kids on the contrary babies love me but, I have my personal reasons which I'll share later in the future or maybe not.
I rang the doorbell and immediately the door opened revealing my mom, she engulfed me in a tight hug almost squeezing life out of me.
"Oh my baby boy.... I've missed you so much. Why don't you come see your poor mother anymore"she said getting teary eyed. This is mom being dramatic. She knows that I have been busy with work
"I've been busy mom, and you know that", "but..." She tried protesting
"May I come in or you want me to leave?" I knew that was the only way to escape her
"Right, come in baby" I rolled my eyes. She knows how much I hate it when she calls me that
"Where's dad" he is not here to tease me. Thank God for that but he said we had something important to discuss
"He's in his office" she said heading to the kitchen probably to check on the meal. I went to dad's office in the meantime
"How are you son?" He said coming to give me a hug. After 52years of age, he still looks handsome. I guess good looks and smartness runs in my family
"I'm good dad" I sat on the couch in his office. "So how was the meeting at OGC (Otalia's Group of Company)"
"It was good. We were able to buy the shares. Anyway, you said we have something important to discuss. What is it?"
"Right, let's go to the dinning room. We'll discuss over dinner". I wonder what it was that was taking him so long to say.
We sat at the table awkwardly eating dinner. No one was gonna start the conversation and the suspense was irritating me.
"Well?, What is it?" I said looking at both of them
"Son.... you're getting married in two weeks" WTF is he talking about. I burst into laughter. I can't remember when last I laughed this hard. For once, his joke was actually funny. I glanced at him and my mom and they looked serious.
"You're kidding right" I asked nervously, wanting him to tell me he was pulling a prank but this happened instead
"I'm not kidding Adrain, you're getting married to my best friends daughter Harmony Harrison" he looked me straight in the eyes meaning he was serious
"WHAT??" I got up abruptly seriously pissed off. How could he?, when he knows my past and the reason I have never had any serious relationship for years now.
"Son..."mom tried to calm me down but I wasn't having any of it.
"Fuck....who gave you the right to decide who I'm going to marry" I said yelling at both of them. My mom was already crying but I didn't care right now how could they do this to me
"Don't you dare yell at me Adrain. I am you father and I have every right to interfere in your life especially when it's the best for you" he got up angry
"F*** you", "HEY, don't you dare use such language in my house" he tried to lunge at me angrily but my mom got in between us
"Stop it Desmond, he's our son" she sobbed
"Then he should learn to respect me" he said giving me a death glare
"Fuck the both of you. Am not marrying anyone that's final" I marched angrily to the door and was about to leave when my dad said what would turn my life around. Something he knew I can't let go of.
"If you walk out that door, you lose the company"I have walked hard for that company, dedicated my life to it. It was my only way of forgetting about 'her'. How can he do this to me?
"I'm so screwed" I muttered to myself. I left the house angrily and drove to my penthouse where I plan on getting drunk tonightDESMOND'S POV:
"How could you do that to him?, He clearly isn't ready to move on" Taylor said sobbing
"What do you want me to do?, Let him suffer all his life?, he's my son too you know" I said angrily
"I know you mean well for him but he's been through so much"she said sadly. Shit I hate making her cry
"Honey trust me this is the best for him. I love him too and I also want to see him smile again. Trust me love" I hugged her as she sobs softly on my shoulders.This is the best for Adrain, for all of us. Harmony Harrison is perfect for him, she'll be able to heal his wounds and make him happy again as he once was. I didn't mean to blackmail him but am sure he'll thank me in the future for making this decision for him.
