" why do you want rose to get married" charlie asked while trying not to show his nervousness

" Because she is old and her late mother wanted her to get married before 25" Annette replied calmly while looking at Rose with affectionate eyes.

" So who is the groom you guys chose for me " rose replied while eating snacks that they had ordered as if she didn't care what they were talking about.

" my dear you know him though" this time it was Charlie's mom Eddy who answered her with a knowing smile making rose to have a bad feeling in her guts.

When charlie heard that he also had a bad feeling that something is wrong.

" Ivan" Charlie's dad Allan Anderson replied cheerfully leaving the children dump folded especially charlie.

Rose who was eating cake paused for a second before continuing meanwhile Ivan was loosing his mind because he saw Anna giving him a dead glare and a sneer.

"But we are not ready to get married we are still young" Ivan told them nervously trying not to look in Anna's direction.

" I think Ivan is right dad they are still kids" charlie told them which made rose to pause and looked at him and then answered immediately while frowning.
