What a strange man

After we announced that I have decided to get married to one and only The great Zyan Bruce, grandpa Chris was the first one to congratulate me beside papa. Then my dad and Mr Bruce congratulated me as well. Then my eyes saw the disgusted faces of my steps mother and sister and Mrs Bruce. The resentment in their eyes was clearly visible. Grandpa told me that Zyan already left because of some business thing. I was kind of disappointed; but disappointment is something I've had my entire life.

×------------------------×

Since the day my marriage was announced Jennifer and sebrina started treating me even worst than before if that's possible. Sebrina say that I have stolen tha love of her life from her as if that's true. I don't know what's her problem with me she have a life better than me obviously. She got the love of my father,love of her mother and she even got everything she wanted without shredding a single sweat for it. Meanwhile i always had to work hard if i wanted something i had to prove that i am capable of possessing a certain commodity. Still she has always resented me for mysterious reason.

×------------------------×

A week passed by and my marriage was to happen in a month so that mean only 3 weeks are left and then I'll be a Mrs. Bruce. Whoa that sound awkward I'm way to Young to be Mrs yet. What if they are as bad as Jennifer and sebrina? What if Zyan is a drunken alcoholic? What if he's in love with someone else? what if he doesn't let me persue my dreams and ask me to become a trophy wife? I would never allow that I can not give up my dreams for a man. That's I also one of the reasons i never had a boyfriend. Wait wait how can I have a boyfriend when I never even had a real friend. Workers at the Hershey's are the only friends no acquaintance I have.

As I was thinking about what my life will be better marriage someone knocked my door. I opened it and there she was my soon to be mother-in-law Josephine.

"you don't have to get ready let's go for your wedding dress shopping i don't have much time. Hurry up" she angrily commanded me

"okay. I just need 5 mins to be presentable enough to go out" i said hoping she'd listen. But never in a million yrs i was expecting what she said next.

"Listen you ugly little good for nothing pig i don't have enough time how many times do you want me to tell you to that. And even if you undergo a trillion plastic surgeries you'd still look like a pig. Now get your fat *** out of your bed" and without a word I followed her. When you can't say something good don't say anything at all that what I've learned from my papa. I know i should've put her in her place but i didn't want to fuel the fire and the best thing you do to not make someone even more angry is stay quiet.

I silently went downstairs to 9 meet another person who wants to make my life hell. Amara Bruce aka my stepsister's best friend aka my soon to be sister-in-law aka also one of my worst nightmares. Shoooo that's a lot of aka's!

When she saw me her lips tugged upwards to make an evil smile. "Oh hey rabied girl I heard you're getting married; never thought I'd see this day let alone getting married to my my brother hmmmmm that's interesting. Although i don't understand the reason behind his approval of this marriage i know you are dieing to get married to him. But why did he accept this arrangement no doubt he can have any girl he wants!"

"He can have any girl he wants but any girl is not me only if you had a brain you'd know" i mocked her....i shouldn't have. I know if you can't say something don't say nothing at all. But she is just too much even for me and i have a lot of patience. she's the college queen while sebrina is her sidekick.

"You bitch .....you ugly fa buttonhead psycho what did you just say. I will tell this to your mom and your dad too and i will tell my brother not to marry. Don't come to me then in hopes of being forgiven" she rambled.

"How dare you speak to my daughter like that you pig no one wants you to be married to my son. I suggest you back off already." I have never seen Josephine so furious. As a matter i have never seen Josephine around well i have but not so much.

Then i saw the worst thing ever Jennifer in her angry demeanor did she hear our conversation? Kill me pls. Jennifer stromed towards me and slapped me write in the face. "You ungrateful bitch. Tell Amara tht you're sorry."bI just stared at her while holding my right cheek. Another slap "Tell Amara that you are sorry" tears welled up in the corner of my eyes. I didn't sign up for this life why is my life such a living hell?.why? I guess I'll never get an to of that.

"I'm sorry Amara pls forgive me" i did as i was asked wiping my tears I went out of the house. Followed by Josephine." This the first and the last time you disrespect my daughter is that clear" i simply nodded as an answer.

"Now get in the car you've already wasted enough of my time " yet again i did as I was asked. The thing I've learned from my life is that do what others want you to if you don't want to get hurt.

Shopping for a wedding dress let me tell you is not a piece of cake and if you mother-in-law is Josephine......run for your life peeps. We having going in and out of stores for past 3 hours aside from dress shopping she made me shop for my regular clothes" my style is too simple" her words not mine. I like simplicity in things complicated things make your life intricate.

Finally we arrived at Dole and Gabbana, luckily Samira Gabbana is her long time friend and Will Make me a custom designed wedding dress in less than a month. After Shopping we went for dinner for some mother daughter bonding (note the sarcasm).

I came home by 11pm and I was tired like I could literally pass out on the floor. I went to my room changed my clothing; did some before going to bed business. Right when I was about to go in deep slumber my cell phone started ringing.

Who is calling me at this hour Uggghhhhhh with tired eyes saw who's calling and to my surprise it's unknown number "hello. Who is this and what do you want"

"It's Zyan. Get ready by 9 am tommorow we have an interview." And just like that he hung up.
