Chapter 2 - The Meeting (2/2)

I went there and saw four of them sitting on couch talking with my mom and dad.

Mr. Carlton came with his wife,his son and his daughter. I stretched out my hand to greet him ” It's nice to meet you Mr. Carlton how you been?”

He shook my hand and replied ” All good and it's good to see you too.” I greeted them all and sat beside my dad.

” I think we shouldn't be so formal here,you two go to the garden and talk with each other.” My dad said looking at us.

” Yes I also think this,after all these two are getting married so they should get to know each other first.” Mr. Carlton added to that.

I took her to the garden and I was hoping that I can convince her to cancel this marriage.

Seeing her up close, I noticed that she has a slim figure with a pale complexion, long black hair. She's not wearing too much makeup which I can tell very well,just a simple look and she wore a peach colour dress which stretched out to her knee. Her height wasn't short either, she was tall enough to reach my shoulder. Both of us were quite so I decided to break the silence.

” I'm Theo Lester, which you probably know by now.” I said smiling at her

” Uh... no I just came to know about it now.” She replied back straight in a soft voice.

Well I was quite surprised. I knew that I'm quite famous around here,most girls knows about me.

I asked her

” You never heard of me? ”

” No.”

” Not even from your friends?”

”Umm, no.”

” Not even from your parents? I'm supposed to be your marriage partner!”

”Umm...well...yeah I kinda heard that they want me to meet up with you, I...kinda forgot to ask your name .....haha.. ”

she replied giving me a nervous laugh. After this I can tell she's kinda air head and dense to her core.
