Please" I begged how could my parents be so cruel, how can they do this to me.. " indeed we know, that is the whole Reason of this sudden marriage, Look Child we know what's best for you, you are no longer a child , it's time to grow up" what does she mean it's like I'm talking A and she is explaining Z, she has been always like this.. " No, I love George, please.. You cannot do this to me " I cried " the downtown boy, Oddeth.... George the Downtown boy.." My stepmother looks at me in horror at seems like I just told I'm going to get married with a monster, I sigh frustrated why are they like this what is wrong with George so what his a downtown boy. " no..." I defend not sure what else to say... '' Noo! " she asked looking for hope, well time to crush it.. " I mean yes he is a Downtown boy but he is a woodcutter... I mean he does have a job " " A woodcutter, Oddeth A woodcutter, no we will never approve this, your father will have a hearth attack if he he hears about this And you know well how our bloodline goes you are Marrying Charles Kingsley, that's final.." I gasp in shock how can they be so selfish, it's my life. Perfect timing when Emily walks in. " Oddeth " my half sister Emily called me softly, I look at her already tearing up. She immediately glares at her mother Amelia. Though we're half sisters we don't look anything alike my sister Emily has long curly golden blonde hair and light blue eyes just like her mother Amelia whom is my stepmother, while I have long curly light brown hair and Hazel eyes-just like my mother, I've seen my mothers picture before but I never got the opportunity to meet her, she died a few days after I was born, My father had to remarry Amelia and she became my stepmother, to more to add to it my mother and Amelia are distant cousins, both from the Argents bloodline. Yeah when they mentioned about the Bloodline it always goes as Kingsley's, Argents , Cullen's, Baltimore's, and the Salvatore's. we are classified as the Uptown people, it's true we do have mansions, servants, guards and we're rich. The girls of the our bloodline will be automatically betrothed To one of the uptown bloodline boys to maintain our class and status. " mother, she has a choice, we all do.. If you want, let me get marry with one of the Kingsleys " Emily tells looking at her mum. Emily and I are both 27 years old, the difference is I am born on the January 12 while Emily is born in December the 22nd, I know three days before Christmas. Her birthday was just two days ago. MY father married Amelia a few weeks after my mother had passed away so that Amelia can be my second mother and take care of me I don't lie when I say this, she did take care of me real good as if I'm her own. " you know better Emily, Oddeth is Betrothed to Charles since she was born, that is what Isabella would have wanted.. " Amelia always loves to blame my mothers name on everything... I couldn't stand here and listen to this I walked out from the Hall to my room and threw myself on the bed grabbing the pillow tight sobbing heavily, " Oddeth" my half sister came and cooed my shoulder, I sat up looking at her while she set beside me holding my hands softly.. " I don't even like Charles " I told crying.. " I know " she sighs.. Emily always has been the courages one " I don't want to Marry Charles " I told crying, , she bit her lips and I can tell she is controlling not to laugh, She is my sister I love her but sometimes she is weird since she laughs seeing people cry or in funerals or something bad happens, its okay for her she is in love as well but its with the uptown guy, if I'm not mistaken I think it is Charles younger brother whom is just three years older then is, Charles is George age. They are 32 years old which is five years older then me. " darn Emily now isn't the time to laugh" I told sobbing softly wiping my tears. " I know...I'm sorry it's just you know me I couldn't help it, " she told amused I scoff and shook my head, Emily always being herself. " it is just you are not the one who argues, that's my job " Emily bends her lips trying to cheer me up, not helping sis " we'll not this time Emily, this is my life were talking about , I believe in true love Emily, I love George I love him, I can't marry Charles Emily, I can't.." I told crying " good, " she tells nodding.. " I met George just now" I frown, why did she meet George.. " and we have a plan" she told I frown looking at her still while she grins looking at me, what can the almighty plan be. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * " thank you so much Emily" I told hugging Emily..
