I’m inside my bedroom and there I frown, Clarisse did a great job buying things for me. They are really serious about me having my own things here. The bedroom is fully furnish and is in exact places. How did they do this? Are they really sure that I’m going to marry their son?

“Granny, where is Jed?” I break the silence.

“Oh, Jed is at work. You know that boy, he keeps on working since he was eighteen” granny sighs.

I sit down at a wooden chair while watching granny change the bed sheet. I’m more curious of Jed now, did he know about the agreement? If so, what was he thinking right now? Maybe he has a girlfriend? I must talk to him, but now I must keep asking granny about him.

“Granny, does Jed has a girlfriend?” I ask.

She froze and sat on the bed. I don’t know but she’s thinking deeply. Am I asking too way off? Too bad, but I don’t mind.

“I think so Cheska, but I like you more than Rose his girlfriend” she sighs.

So, why did Jed agree about this? Later I saw a black SUV pulled outside the mansion. I look intently, there I notice a tall man wearing a business suit. He’s handsome, young but serious. As he open the other door beside the driver’s seat, a very elegant woman catches my attention. They are perfect for each other. Who are they anyway?

“They’re here, I mean she’s here again” granny said sarcastically. There I knew that it was Rose and Jed. Hmmm, I find it interesting.

What will be their expression if they see me here? Well, as possible I don’t want to meet Jed.

“I can tour you around the mansion if you want Cheska” granny smiles after putting the last pillow on the bed.

“I want to do it on my own granny, but I want to do it secretly. I mean please don’t tell Jed that I’m already here, I don’t want to ruin their date or whatsoever today” I smirk.

Granny left me in my so called bedroom. I quickly prepare myself for walking. A short shorts and a black t-shirt is alright along with my black converse. I let my hair fall and walk outside the room.

The mansion is so massive, not like the others I’ve seen. The interior design is so perfect, where is Jed and Rose? I don’t really mind about them, but if this was so. Why doesn’t he back off about the wedding?

“Jed, you know I’m not yet ready” a girls voice occur in one of the rooms where I stood. It must be Rose, I think. I don’t want to spy, but there’s some kind of force that push me to listen to their conversation.

“Rose, will you marry me? Please” Jed asks desperately.

“I’m sorry Jed, but not now. I have so many plans; I want to reach them before I settle down” Rose replies.

I don’t know what happen next but all I know is that I’m standing face to face to a woman named Rose. My mouth drops open and Crap! “Who are you? And what are you doing here?” she spats. How could she just do say that to me?

“I—I I’m sorry ma’am, I just want to talk to Mister Jed” I answer. I hope she will be convinced but I was wrong. “What do you need?” she looks at me furiously. Well I just want to tell him to back off about the agreement you sick!

“Uhm, very important matter Rose, Aunt Clarisse and Uncle Ben wants us to talk about it privately” I said it chin up. Now who’s the boss?

“Who the hell are you?” she glares at me. Is she really that kind of woman, seriously?

“I think it’s none of your business, and I think you and Jed are already finish discussing something” I didn’t let her respond instead I walk pass her and went inside Jed’s mini office, I think. Before we talk I slam the door close so that Rose can’t hear or if she does can’t disturb us.
