Chapter 24

"Can't you be a little more patient then?" I asked him. I was not ready to do this I was just not ready for it and I don't think I ever will be. "No, I can't." He said. "Okay how about I give you a massage first?" I asked him. "No." He said. Oh God please help me, I really need your help right now please help this innocent child that is about to lose all her innocence because of this man in front of her. "Mr Courtney please have mercy on this innocent lamb." I said. "What did I say you should call me?" He asked me. "OH, hubby can we not do this tonight, I don't think that I'm ready for such things besides I am really young and I'm inexperienced too I'm sure that you wouldn't want to do such things with an inexperienced person like me, right?" I asked him, praying a million times in my head that he would at least change his mind."I will take the lead so you don't have to do anything and don't worry I will teach you what you need to know so there is no need for you to worry babe." He said. "Mayn... I mean hubby, I am a bit exhausted right now so I want to rest a little." I said. "Don't worry I won't tire you out." He Said. Damn this guy really wanted to do this. "Can I please give you a massage?"I asked him."I hate repeating myself, the answer is still no." he said leaning closer to my face he was so close that I could feel his hot breath on my face. I really wished that he would wait for a little while longer because I just wasn't mentally prepared for this kind of stuff. Just as he was about to kiss me his phone rand and I mentally thanked God a million times in my head, I guess he really did hear my prayers huh. I heard him groan in frustration and then he got up and he took his phone he checked the caller ID and I saw him frown I guess the caller wasn't someone he wanted to talk to, he shook his head. "I'll be back." He said walking out of the room. I sat up from the bed, I looked around and I saw Maynard's shirt on the couch (he had left it there this morning, I still don't know why). I took the shirt and I wore it, I didn't know what I was supposed to do now, whether I should wait for him or just go to sleep or maybe take a shower because I didn't shower tonight, but something told me to secretly listen to Maynard's conversation with the person that he was talking to on the phone but I decided not to because he would probably be angry at me if he found me secretly listening to his conversation with who knows who without his permission.

After an hour Maynard returned into the room and he looked angry, who on earth had the audacity to piss this guy off(well I did), but who else. He didn't say anything he just walked towards me and he sat next to me. "Go to bed, I have something important that I need to attend to, I'll see you tomorrow." He said, I wanted to scream in excitement because that meant we were not going to do that thing tonight but I was also a bit curious about what it is that he had to attend to at this time of the night."Okay." I said not wanting to ask him any questions because I was afraid I would piss him off even more.

The next morning I woke up to an empty bed, Maynard was not yet back from who knows where he had gone to, I did my usual morning routine and after that I went downstairs for breakfast and his parents and grandmother were already there, his grandmother gave me a look of disgust, if not liking someone could kill you then this woman would have died the moment she saw me for the first time. "It's already 8:30am, in this family we are expected to wake up at 6am and be at the dining table at 7am but you, miss Queen are late. That's one of the rules that you should follow, I hope that I won't have to remind during my stay here since I'll be staying here for a month. "She said. A month, a freaking month, so I seriously had to deal with this annoying old hag for a month oh my goodness how many minutes are there in a month. A minute with her feels like an hour."Okay I'll make sure to learn and follow the rules of the family... I have a question ma'am."I said seating down."Do I have to follow those rules that I have yet to learn even when it's just Maynard and I." I asked her. "Yes." She said. I rolled my eyes, it's not like I was going to follow those rules. I didn't know what those rules were but I could tell that they were ridiculous. "we are just two days away from the wedding and I have yet to meet your family." She said. "So then tell me when am I going to meet your family?" She asked me, I looked down fiddling with my fingers I didn't know what to tell her at this moment, was I supposed to tell her that they weren't coming or that they sold me to Maynard and they wanted nothing to do with me, what was I supposed to tell her, the truth? No if I did then Maynard would kill me with his bare hands he wouldn't even think twice before doing it. "My parents are not here." I said. "What do you mean? Are they out of the country? I mean if they are out of the country they can at least make a plan to attend their daughter's wedding."No they are not out of the country." I said. "Then where are they?" She asked. "Mother I don't think that you should ask her so many questions, just let her eat first." Maynard's dad said. "Shut up junior I'm not talking to you, I'm talking to her. Anyway I do have the right to meet her family."She said. "Answer me dear where us your family?" She asked me. If Maynard was here then I wouldn't be in this situation. "Well... My parents died in a car accident two years ago and I don't know anything about my uncles, aunts or grandparents." I said clenching the fabric of my dress tightly. I knew that I hated my parents for what they had done but lying to someone saying that they are dead, really hurt me, it was hard to say. "What bad luck, I hope that your bad luck won't fall on my grandson." She said. "Mother that's enough!" Maynard's dad shouted. "Junior I'm your mother you can't raise your voice at me like that!" She shouted back. "Mom how can you say something like that to her? Did anyone tell you that you were bad luck when dad and my brothers died in a car accident and you were the only one that survived, did anyone ever say such things to you?" He asked, I could tell that he was angry. But he didn't look scary like Maynard. "Junior do not compare me to this woman, I am much much different from her." She said. "Moth..." Before he could finish talking I cut him off. "No father it's okay, she's right I guess I do have bad luck, not everyone is lucky in this world I just turned out to be the unlucky one. Sorry." I said standing up and walking out of the dining hall. I really meant it, I was just an unlucky girl, I had gotten such evil parents who pretended to love me for all this years and I knew nothing about my aunts or uncles my parents told me that I didn't need them and that they would only bring us down. I went outside and I sat on the chair that was on near the pool. I looked up at the clear sky, my life was really a bad one wasn't it. I even wished that I would wake up someday in another person's body who has a perfect life, a person with loving and caring parents, a person who will marry or is married to a man that they truly love, someone who was not forced to drop out of school by her selfish and greedy parents, someone who is loved by everyone and doesn't have to pretend to be someone else and that they are happy with their lives, I wish that someone or something could come and grant me one wish, I would only wish for nothing but happiness because I really needed it.
