CAMILA'S POV

Buzz.... Buzz.......

I woke up from the sound of my alarm clock ringing on the night stand by my bed. I jerk up and turn to of the alarm. It's like it has been ringing since cos it's now 7:33. Oh no. I'm late now.

Yeah I work in a boutique own by my parents. They wanted me to learn about my fashion, and look at me now I am a fashionista.

I stood up and walk into my en suit bathroom. I took a quick shower. I'm surprised my mom hasn't barged in. She does that when I wake up late.

I got ready. I brushed my teeth, I brushed my hair and wore a blue floral dress with a pair of blue pencil mouth heels.

I walked out of my room and started walking down stairs when a maid walk up to me. "Ma'am, ma'am your parents ask me to get you as fast as possible. They said they needed to talk to you about something." She pants as she tells me everything.

I quickly rush down stairs straight to the dinner. I met my mom and dad eating breakfast before their attention came to me. "Camila darling, come. Sit." Mom said.

I sat down and look at her. "A maid said you wanted to talk to me about something." I said to them as my eyes went to my dad who was looking stressed and frustrated. I wonder what they wanted to tell me.

"Yes dear. Your dad has something to tell you." She said, looking at her husband.

"Dad? What happened. You look frustrated. What's going on?" I asked raising my brows curiously. My dad heaves a sigh and looked at me.

"My dear. You know my boss Mr. Preston, we had a misunderstanding and I lost a lot of his money, I was stressed out do I made a deal with him." He said. But what does this have to do with me? And again what is the deal?.

"So why are you telling me? And..... And what is the deal you made with him?" I asked fiddling with my index fingers. I usually do that when I'm sad, confused or feeling vulnerable.

"Camila, you are twenty years old now and you are clearly an adult. So it's time." He said to me. But I don't still understand what he means.

"Dad, what are you talking about?" I asked with a sad face. Now I'm scared. What is he trying to say?

"You will be getting married to my boss's son. Miguel Preston" he said, and I melt in half.

What? Married? I am too young to married. A guy as never even touched me cos my parents never wanted me be near any guy. And now they want me to get married to someone I don't know. I feel so vulnerable right now. No no......

"Dad please, you can't do this to me" I cried, tears falling from my eyes. "Dad? Please no.... Please no" I begged.

He looked at my teary eyes. "There's nothing I can do about it. It's left for you to accept the reality. The wedding is going to be this Saturday, so prepare yourself. That boy isn't patient with anyone." He said, standing up from the chair and walking away.

"My dear, don't cry. It's not that bad darling." Mom coo me, cupping my cheeks and cleaning the tears with her thumbs but it was no use I was sad right now. "Stop crying, it's also for your own good" she gave a hug and left.

I cried and cried. I didn't feel like going out any more so I called my best friend, Emily to take care of the boutique.

I went to my room, straight to bed , it is official, there's nothing I can do. When my dad says it's final, it is. So what more can I do.

I just can't believe this is happening to me, my life of independence is all over because of a marriage. Im I'm so upset right now that my parents doesn't even care about my happiness, but I'll do it, for my father's wellbeing. Maybe the Miguel Preston is so bad. Is he?......
