Marry Me Not

EIGHT

"What the f*ck???" I cursed when I found my sisters is having a sleepover in my bedroom without my permission.

"Hey, Jordan join us!" Charlotte said and when I look around I found Athena is sleeping on my bed.

"Who gives you permission to use my bedroom?" I asked Anastasia because I have some feeling that she is the brain of all of this!

"Relax! It just happened that your room is the biggest one."

"And you just decided to use it without my permission?"

"Will you say yes if I ask you first? Besides you are not here when we looking for a room"

Not wanting to fight with Anastasia, I took my bag and leave them without saying any words.

I heard Ana is calling my name but I care nothing about that. All room is occupied and I swear I will never use that room again.

"Jordan where you going?" I heard mom's asking me when I open the front door.

"I am going back home tonight. Enjoy your vacation mom"

"What? Wha..what happened? We just arrived"

"He is angry because we are using his room for a sleepover," Ana tells mom, following by others.

"Oh honey, you can sleep in another room. What is the big deal?" I shake my head no to mom and face Ana.

"THAT IS NOT THE PROBLEM ANASTASIA!!" She flinched when I yelled at her.

"THEN WHAT IS IT? YOU HAVE BEEN ACTING LIKE A SPOILED BRAT AND GIVING US A COLD SHOULDER ALL DAY AND IT IS JUST A ROOM FOR GOD SAKE JORDAN!!" She fights back

"ALL OF YOU SHOULD HAVE KNOWN BETTER BEFORE MAKE A DECISIONS THAT I DO NOT LIKE FROM THE FIRST TIME!" hearing my words is like bringing back their sanity in life.

"Oh, Jo... I am sorry. I thought.." Mom said but I cut her

"It is an okay mom"

Feeling tired of arguing I took a deep breath and then I smile to them,

"I'm sorry if I was acting like a spoiled brat or giving you guys a cold shoulder all day long. But I am not sorry for leaving this vacation. You can have the room forever and please enjoy your vacation, family!" I kiss my mom and mouth sorry to her.

I use the commercial plane instead of using the private jet and it takes hours for the next flight.

I was waiting for the registration counter to open when a girl caught my attention. She is in a group, 5 men and 4 girls.

Got a feeling she is been watching she look over at my direction and I saw her blushed. Her friends noticed and they teased her. I was smiling and felt embarrassed myself but I continued looking at her. Just when I decide to approach her, my phone is ringing and it is from Bethany.

"Hello Bethany"

"Jordan where are you?"

"Airport"

"What happened?"

"Oh, nothing. Don't worry about it"

"Mom is sad"

"I know she will and I am sorry. Just.. is not this supposed to be our vacation? Just us, family"

"Yes, it is."

"Then why are that girl and her family is tagging along? She is not even a family!"

"Yet. You will be marrying her Jordan and that is enough to make her as a part of our family"

"I refused! That marriage will not happen Beth. Look I gotta go. I got a company. Talk to you tomorrow!" I said to Beth when I noticed the girl is walking towards me.

"What company? Who?" Beth asked but I cut her and said bye to her before I hang up the phone.

"Hey"

"Hey. Sorry if I bother you or something"

"No. Not at all"

"Um... May I?" she pointed the empty chair next to me.

"Sure, please make yourself comfortable"

"Thanks. Um... I am Carmen. Are you from around here or..?"

"No. It was just for a vacation. What about you?"

"We are from the north. Heading south try to make it to Africa. Got transit here for a day."

"I see. I am Jordan by the way. And your plan sounds interesting there. I know we just meet but is there any room for me to tag along?"

"Really? Don't take me wrong but um.. can you? I mean what about your work? "

"Oh, there is nothing to worry about that. Actually, I don't even start my vacation yet"

"But are not you are going back home now?"

"That was my first plan. But since the counter for my flight is still closed and not open until the next hour  basically I do not have my ticket for any destination yet"

"Wait. Help me to understand this. You are here for your vacation but no vacation yet?"

"I just got here this afternoon with my family but something happened and I left. Not enjoying at all"

"Wanna talk about it?"

"Nah. It is a long story and your flight is an hour. Not gonna have enough time"

"Oh yes, we do. You are definitely welcome to join us, we will have plenty of time for your story later"

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, Sherlock. Come on. Meet my friends"

"Wow. I hope I do not regret this later"

"Promise you, you would not. This will be so much fun Jordan!"
