Hamma... I don't feel like eating."
"Noor, eat that food now!" I said, my voice firm and commanding, cutting through the silence.
She looked down at her plate, her eyes filled with reluctance.
"Hamma, please... I'm not hungry. And... the food is too much for me to finish."
"Noor, don't argue with me. I'm not your mate," I replied sharply. "You better eat that food, or I will force it down your throat. Trust me, I can do it."
My words hung heavily in the air, a clear and unmistakable threat.....
This is a story about two young people who were married without their consent, a union carried out with their parents' approval.
...So technically, it was an arranged marriage from their parents' perspective, but a forced marriage from theirs.
He was far too arrogant for her liking, and she was far too stubborn and clumsy for his.
Could this journey ever truly work...?
We all have those cousins who can hardly be called family-more like cats and dogs.
Sharing the same roof is nearly impossible, even when the rain pours endlessly.
⚠🚫⚠ WARNING: READ AT YOUR OWN PACE!!!
This is a fictional story; all characters and events are imaginary, and any resemblance to real life is purely coincidental.
It also explores forced marriage, is highlighting both its advantages and disadvantages-something parents should carefully consider before practicing it.

Married to you ✔
Arrange marriage, I hated to even hear about it. But my fate didn't favour me. Born into a conservative family, I had little say in the matter. I was made to meet men chosen for me, one after another. Each time, I found my own ways to be rejected and thankfully, they did reject me. But then he came. He was somehow different from the previous guys that I had met. Still, I tried the same tactic, hoping he too would walk away. Instead, he offered me a deal that was never meant to change anything. "We will marry each other and will be living under a same roof but we won't practically be husband and wife. Neither will I control you nor will you control me. Or let's just say we can be roommates." It was simple. Ridiculous but somehow strangely convincingly practical. Or so I thought. Because that one deal... changed my life forever. **** ~A love after marriage story~ It isn't as simple as you think. They will end up bickering over god knows what kind of stupid things. They will end up having cliche moments and at times you will go all aww on them. Just click the button 'Read' and be a part of their journey.Complete
