Love Is Made For The Foolish (English version)

Chapter 3 Mom's Choice II.

-But mother, I haven't even seen him in years, I don't think I'm going to feel comfortable, I'm already grown up, I can get a date if I wanted one.-

-Forget it, you have terrible taste and also very little time left. And don't worry about not knowing him well enough, we'll all have dinner together tomorrow night when David and Sarah return from Argentina.-

-Okay!- I agree with dinner so that my mother can go and leave me alone, but I'm not going to accept a date that she has made without asking me.

The next night, I don't even bother to dress up, I just pin my night-black hair into a high ponytail, put on a black skirt and an olive silk blouse. I put on little makeup to look naturally tired so Matthew has no illusions that I am dressing up for him.

Upon arriving at my parents' house, I am greeted by Nelson, an older man who used to be our butler, but whom I have always seen as part of the family, he is my favorite person, he always gives the best advice and on more than one occasion covered our asses when we were doing some mischief.

He no longer works for the family because of his health, but we love him so much that we adopted him as the grandfather we never had and now he lives with my parents.

-Hi little girl, how was the trip? - he asks while I hug him so tightly that he can hardly breathe, God, how I love this old man.

-You know, there are a lot of idiots with a driving license. But here I am.-Hey, has my undesirable date arrived? -

-Yes honey, your mom has been talking about you and what a good wife you will become. I think we will have a double wedding! - Nelson says in a mocking tone.

-Ugh, it's not even funny, you know that's how it would be if I don't pay attention for a second.- I head to the main hall where everyone is gathered. The first thing I notice is the vibe, everyone is very happy, except my brother, who looks at Matthew over his shoulder.

-There is my princess!- Says my mother running to hug me until she sees what I have put on and gives me a reproachful look. - I imagine you come from the hospital, that's why you haven't been able to dress well, my poor girl, so brave!- She says to justify the fact that I don't look as perfect as she had painted me for Matthew.

If she knew I had 5 hours to get ready but I just didn't want to push myself, then she would kill me.

-Matthew, do you remember Eliza?-

-Of course, although I admit that my memory has not done you justice.-

-Well, I just remembered how much I despised you, so we're even!- I reply in a not very friendly tone. My brother laughs as Mom stares at me.

I must accept that Matthew is quite attractive, he is tall,and seems to be in very good condition, he has curly brown hair and green eyes with a little bit of golden. His smile could melt anyone, and as soon as he turns for us to go back to the living room, I find myself looking at the best ass I've ever seen.This man has changed so much. For a moment I consider whether being a complete jerk to punish my mother is worth it.

-Yes, I accept that I was an unbearable child! But fortunately, we all mature over time, don't we?- says Matthew with a mischievous smile.

I just smile back and greet the rest of my family. My father hugs me and taking me by the hand, pushes me aside.

-Honey, I know that your mom could not keep to herself the idea of ​​Matthew accompanying you to the wedding, I must admit, I never liked that boy very much, but now he is different and I want you to give him a chance. Ok?-

Oh dad, always with his fear that I will die alone.

-Okay daddy, but I'll do it just because you ask me so nicely. I'll be more civil.-

-Thank you, darling, it's the only thing I ask for now.-
