"Is your name supposed to mean something to me?" Dad said now getting irritable looking back a forth between me and the man who I have learned name is Logan. "Well apart from me being the head of the mafia, I am engaged to your daughter" Logan replied while putting his hand on top of mine. I'm still in shock from what I heard I don't know what shocked me more that person's hand that I am toughing is the head of the mafia or that he has just said that I am engaged to him. The moment that he put his hand on mine the first response was to pull my hand away. I don't exactly like people toughing me due to my dad beating me. But I know that I probably shouldn't move right now. "What do you just say about my daughter?" Dad respond with getting livid at this point I literally think 5 more minutes he will be foaming at the mouth like a rabid animal. "That we are getting married, aren't we babe?" They both stared at me I knew I had to say something but I was in too much shock to say anything at the moment. All I knew was that if I didn't agree to Logan then I would have to go home with him at God knows what he would do to me, or I could say yes and be free of my dad but have to deal with Logan that I have only knew for seven minutes and in those minutes he admitted being the head of the mafia. I have to decide "Yyyeah it's true" I said stuttering. Logan gave me a smile that was very contagious and made me smile; he laced our hands together I know he is only doing it to make the lie more believable. My dad face that he gave us was the most disgusted and angry face that I think is possible for any human to make. "Fine you want her as your wife, have her but good luck" he turned around and started to walk away. I let out breath that I didn't know I was holding and relief washed over me but it didn't last. On his way out my dad stopped and turned around with a sinister smile "I want an invite to the wedding, oh and I have one condition then you will never see me again". "Whatever you want" Logan said now being over this discussion and wanting my father to leave. "I want the wedding in 1 month and if the wedding does not happen in a month, she is coming back with me and you will never see us again" his voice was thick and sinister. "Deal" Logan said now getting irritable himself with my father. After hearing that I am terrified, it's real now I'm getting married to a complete stranger in a month. Dad left and slammed the door behind him. "Come one lets go, thanks Sal I'll discuss what we were talking about later ok?" He pulled me out of the bar and started walking to behind the bar I'm guessing to go to his car. All of this is happening to fast for me to process I need to clarify what that is going on here. I grabbed Logan's blazer by the arm. He turned around and looked at me. "So I'm getting married to you now?"
