1 I obey them I won't judge in this matter

Finished refreshing up Scarlet came for breakfast to the table with her family.

" Sweety, we have important matter to discuss with you later." Mom said as breakfast continue " Do you have time after breakfast?" Mom ask. She nodded and slowly eat her breakfast.

Scarlet sit with them in the living room to hear the matter.

" We got a marriage proposal for you" she look at dad and mom. They have a happy face which she doesn't understand. Ah, even sisters know about it they are not surprise.

" I see..tell me" she said as if she was dealing with normal thing.

" Wow..third sister, you are not surprise at all. We were surprise to hear at first. But why are you always calm?" Kate her fourth sister said. They are used to her quitness. But she was burning inside she was stunned when marriage was mention.

" Heart, they are very wealthy and good people. You also know them" her Mom was excited, " When we had a get together dinner, they saw your photo then your aunty wants you to be her daughter in law as soon as she saw it even we were shock but they insisted on getting you."

Do they think I am some product that they can have. Do i really know them?

" Dad, whose family?" she ask wanting to know who wants to end her peaceful life.

" The Clark family" he answered.

" Clark family" her sisters shouted together " that famous and richest whom people fear" Tanny added. Dad nodded.

" the clark family" she murmured slowly. I have heard of their family that's why mom say i know them moreover Mrs.Clark is my mom bestie and her husband do business with dad before. No wonder they always have dinner together once in a month.

" I don't know them, never meet before" she really didn't meet them before though there were gathering before.

" They want your opinion, sweety. You can decline if you don't want." her dad said sadly.

They only wait for her. Her family is a loving family who care each other so much. Her sisters were so eager suppressing their excitement.

" I am not gonna decide this matter. It's you dad and mom to decide." she said as if they ask for her dinner menu, " All i care is my freedom and peaceful. I want this two." said all this after thinking a while. She doesn't care because there is no real love in this world. Who care about marriage.

Her parents and sisters were dumbstruck by her. They never know they had a child like that in their home who doesn't think what will happen to her life after marriage.

" That's all i am leaving." seeing their reaction she was about to leave then turn back " mom, ask Mrs.Clark again". They knew what she mean she only want peaceful and secret life but that won't happen once she got married. It cannot be like her home now.

Lucy wonder if she really give birth to Scarlet. She is really different from her other children even her sisters thought the same - is she our biological sister. They only watch at her back retreating to her room.

.....

It passed two days already after mom told me about the marriage proposal. That day returning to my room i lay down on my bed wondering because why the hell i have to face this rather being nun is better. Why sisters and parents looks happy about it. But the thing is how did they get my photo i never had one. Unless, the one when dad ask for since every family member have to take to keep in family name. Back then, Mom took another copy with her since i never have or take picture.

Mom ask my presence so i went to them. Wow.....look who came today.

" Hi sis, suddenly you become more beautiful. Aya, i envy." Hellen smiling brightly hug her.

" Sis, did you just came because of my marriage proposal?" Scarlet smile at her elder sister.

" Mom told me but i can only come now. Sorry I am late." Hellen laughed.

" Sweety, I already talk with your aunty. They want it." Lusy was happy as always.

Scarlet was surprise that they actually agreed with her but why would they be interested in her. She have nothing only depend her parents and stay at home, they all know that right. She never appear in public so they never see her right?

" Do they know me?" Scarlet was serious.

" They only saw you when you were two" her mom said.

" I can't believe you are marrying into Clark family." Hellen said pleased.

" Me neither, i never think of marriage" she replied. They all laughed at her.

" Do whom am i marrying with?" she don't know them so what did they expect. Her sisters also want to know this more than her.

Her mom smile so does her dad, they were taken back by their parents reaction.

" You are going to marry Rolland Clark, the eldest son." mom said.

" Oh god! the cold and no.1 handsome man in our country" Kate screamed, everybody cover their ears.

" Can you behave more mature?" dad yelled.

" I am sorry. I was just so surprised." Kate replied sorry.

" So we are" Hellen retorted.

" Is there to be so surprise?" Scarlet ask. Once again she left them awe at her.

" Who don't know who really is Rolland Clark?" this time Tanny ask which everybody wanted to ask even her dad.

" I have heard the name but i don't know anything else" of course his name always appear in news so she heard but she had no interest to know about others if it's not they are blood. They feel sorry for her not knowing the dangerous business tycoon moreover their families are close.

" My poor child, who only know her room and house" her dad pity her. He don't know want to say more.

" Seriously?" Hellen ask astonish.
