6 I do (2)

I couldnt forget last night, did he really love me? Or was he trying to convince himself into it? Well neither mattered because we were getting married today, he had ordered a dress for me- I expected it to be plain and far too big but he had checked my size with Grandmama and he had picked the most beautiful dress.

It had a huge ruffly skirt and the torso felt like silk against my skin...It was perfect. I had my hair done in a simple yet elegant bun, even if we werent marrying for love It felt like We were throughout the wedding. As I walked up the aisle he looked at me like he really loved me, I must of looked at him in the same way since Grandmama looked suprised.

After the ceremony we went to dinner since nobody knew it was an arranged marraige, I didnt eat much infact the last thing I was thinking about was food I was thinking about last night when he kissed me, why he helped me, how our marraige would be burdened and cold and why we even had to get married in the first place.

I barely spoke all evening until we went to bed, "Why did we have to get married?"

"Because it opens up connections for both our families."

"Did you want to get married," I asked eagerly, but he didnt answer my question he just said, "we should get to sleep I have work tomorrow and I'm sure you're tired, goodnight miss Zhao." He turned out the lights and I knew I wouldnt get my answer any time soon.
