MY MISTAKE

NO OTHER CHOICE

I looked at my father and wiped the tear at the corner of the right eye . I had no other choice it is just one mission.

"Look at me ." He commanded . I raised my head and looked at him. "Take this file and tell me when you are ready you can tell me or Alan ." "okay"i said as a whisper .

When I got out I met my mom outside. The tears that I had tried so hard to hide burst out . "Mom..I.. " "It's okay dearie sniffed as I lay on her shoulder .

"Come I cooked your favourite cookies ""Thanks mom"

In my apartment.

I sat on the breakfast stool as I ate the cookies I carried from home with some milk while previewing the file that dad gave me. As I read I concluded that my dad is the devil's son because tell me why I am supposed to marry the target .

Krrrrr...Krrrrr

Who calls at this time of the day it's already midnight. "How may I help you ." "Hello puppy " I closed my eyes and sighed because this is another headache . "When did you change your cell number " "Today actually I just figured I should call you ." "How may I help you" Suddenly I heard crying sounds. "Why are you crying Zion" "I broke up with Mo " Ha ha ha ."Are you laughing?" "Yeah because I had already told you he is not into you but ..." "Fine don't lecture me . "

Zion is a gay and I don't judge him ."Any work" "Don't even remind me I have this new one which I have to marry the target can you imagine." "My poor dragon I know you will find a way . " "I will .... " There was silence between us . "Dragon are you still there?.""Yeah"

" Am coming for a sleepover." "It is already midnight ." "I still have to practise for a duel .I can keep you company ." "You know I can't say no to you " "Expect me in half an hour " "okay"

Zion is a gamer . He still doesn't want to join forces with any team even after being labelled the top gamer in the country.

Knock ..knock..

"The door is wide open " Zion pushed the door but no one came in. Few minutes later three suitcases were pushed in . "Wait is this a vacation?" "Am just staying for three days " . "Remember the last time you said that .

FLASHBACK

"Dragon am only staying for one week " "okay feel at home " And only that statement led to a big misunderstanding because he stayed for the whole year.

PRESENT DAY

"I swear this time it's different. " "With all this suitcases?" I shaked my head and left him there ."Anyway you are getting married this apartment can be considered as a bestie gift . "Has anyone ever told you you have valid dreams that will never come true ?" "Yeah . Actually it was you "I have a long way to go.
