Marriage Before Love

29

"Your parents weren't at the wedding" I stated and he looked at me

"No shit" was his short reply before he turned to look out the window of my dad's limo.

"Why?" I asked purely out of curiosity

"My parents and I aren't actually on speaking terms" he answered

"Do they know, about the pregnancy I mean?" I asked

"Sole reason we stop speaking" he replied

"I'm sorry, I di..." I began to speak, but he cut me off

"Stop...talking" he seethed, clenching his fist

"I'm sorry" I said quickly then kept quiet for a while. "What was the exact reason though?"

He didn't answer, so the rest of the ride to my dad's wedding gift was silent. I fell asleep shortly after, and was woken up by Maliky who looked to be at a loss for words. I rubbed the sleep from my eyes and looked up to see a beautiful two storey house.

The crisp white colour of the house made it even more beautiful. The freshly cut, green grass of the lawns which sandwiches the driveway, the clear view of the gigantic pool at the side of the house. Everything was just so beautiful.

The driver existed the car and opened the door for me. I was so mesmerized, I didn't even know Maliky started walking until I heard him ask if I was coming.

"You...uh, yeah I'm coming" I replied as I started walking to the house.

We entered the house to see it fully furnished and beautifully decorated. We had a 64" Sony smart TV on the wall of our living room and a family room differently. I couldn't help but be excited to live here. It's awesome

"What do you guys think?" Dad asked from behind us and we both turned around shocked

"Two words..." Maliky said as I looked at him "Awe...some"
