Us together???

Chapter 3

After greeting them, we all sat inside the dining room. I was facing Joseph. This is the first time I have seen him after our graduation which was five years ago. There is one thing different about him, which is a good difference. Okay fine! He looks handsome but anyway he just looks different, I don't think his behavior might have changed.

<Time Skip>

The dinner was good. What I mean is, I only focused on food while others were eating and discussed business and stuff. And now I am walking in the garden beside Joseph. Yes, this was my mother's idea.

The weather was good; not too cold, not too hot. There was an awkward silence between us while walking. "Why did you accept the proposal." He said without looking at me "Well, to help the companies and my family." I answered and he just nodded.

I was about to ask the same question but I tripped while walking, since I am wearing heels and I am a tomboy, so I hope you understand. I was going to fall flat on the ground but then I felt two arms around me. I open my eyes and I saw him. He was straight looking in my eyes. We were so close that I could feel his breath on my face.

He made me stand back on my feet. "You okay?" he asked. I was just out of words so I just nodded. He started walking but I was still standing there processing what just happened. But then I heard his voice "come on clumsy!"

I cut my thoughts. I paced towards him so we can go home together. We reached home seeing our parents laughing and smiling at each other. I know Mr. and Mrs. Dawn very well. Mr. Dawn had an older brother but I have not seen him or his wife for years. The last time I saw him was when I was 9 years old.

Mrs. Dawn saw us together "Oh! Your back!" She said and smiled. I smiled back and her and sat on the couch. Dad started the conversation. "So, now you both are here let us start the main reason why we are here." He continued. "we decided the dates for marriage. It held two weeks for now on Saturday"

I was shocked. That's too soon! I glanced at Joseph; he was shocked too but then he started acting cool. Then Mr. Dawn took the lead of the conversation "you guys must go on dates; you know to solve your problems and be at least good to each other." Yaa right. we need that. We nodded. He continued "before the two-three days of wedding you have to choose your dresses and suits for wedding and party. Later on guys have to go on your honeymoon..." is that even necessary? "for a week.." for a week, wait FOR A WEEK!!!!

"After you come back your house will be ready by then..." Mr. Dawn said that and then just was looking at us.

Wait a minute, "I am sorry but dad but what do you mean by your house?" asked. I was about to ask the same thing. His mom answered "don't be silly... after you guys get married you have to live together under the same roof"

Why? Is this happening to me?
