I dragged my father into the kitchen to talk about this- this stupid agreement. I will not just keep quiet and let them do what they want with my life. "H-How could you do this to me, Daddy? I said with tears in my eyes. "I'm sorry, darling. I made a promise to him". He said with a sad smile."I cannot break it." "B-But...". My face was drenched with the tears and it started falling to the ground. "No buts, now stop crying." "I am your father and I know what is good for you, Do you understand?" I simply just nodded because I knew arguing is not gonna work against my dad. He was absolutely serious. 'Him' refers to Alexander Conway, my father's childhood friend. I didn't know him at all except that he came with his wife to my house on Sunday morning to talk about the 'promise' my father made to him. I had to marry their son who is 4 years older than me. I am only 21, not ready to get married and settle down. I felt like someone just buried me alive under a river with a huge stone on my mouth, preventing me from talking and expressing my opinion when i got the news. I mean, its not everyday you have to marry a complete stanger. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My name is Paris Lockwood. My mother always dreamed of going to Paris so she named me that way. I am 21 years old, cheerful yet sensitive and I cry too easily. People tease me because of that but I am used to it now. I have a beautiful and caring mother who loves me a lot. My father is very entertaining and loving but he gets extremely serious if it was related to business. But despite that, I love him a lot. I have a older sister who cares for me but does not lose the opportunity to tease me sometimes. I am very timid but bold enough to make choices on my own. I studied business and have a lot of friends. I had a happy life but god decided that I was not satisfied and brought this to me. I have to marry a stranger.

The moment I was in front of him, I grabbed hold of his collar with my both hands. As I yell, "Are you cheating on me, Shahzain?" Seems like I took him by surprise, it took him a whole minute to realize what was happening right now. And the moment he did, he loosen my hold on him and pushed me, which had me stumbling back. "Even if I do, it shouldn't matter. I was forced into this marriage, Sobia." He yells back. "I didn't have a choice. But you had. You shouldn't have agreed to this marriage." Only if he knew, all my life it wasn't me who got to select the choice. Neither is this one, the most important one in my life. "I won't tolerate this. Either you leave me or leave her." I stated, anger clouding my senses. He walked towards me and took a hold of my chin in his hand and stated clearly. "And where's the fun in that? You ruined my life. I promised to ruin you till death do us a part." I pushed him hard. I had already suffered much from my so-called family. And I refused to get suffered by my husband. It's all about the limit. The moment I had my limit of misery and pain, I will end all of this. "Are you sure, it's not the other way around?" A humorless chuckle escapes my lips, as my darkest shade of eyes met his grey ones. "Also, just wanted to correct you, my dearest husband. You can't ruin what's already ruined, Shahzain." "And if I find out that you kept meeting her behind my back. I will ruin you and that lover of yours." With that I stormed out of our room, making up my mind.
