The unexpected vow

Chapter 6

ENZO

I got home,took a shower then head out to my parents house,....

Still thinking about what is going on in that f****d up head of my father,

My relationship with him has been rather unpleasant with time, i mean he wasn't always like that when i was a kid (he was probably trying to be a good father).....

Anyway all that changed during my senior year in high school, when i got into drinking,going to jail,skipping school,bringing girls home, and also fighting which by the way i always win (not that it's something to be proud of, but who gives a f**k)

The one that really pissed him off is when i got drunk,beat up the son of his investor and got arrested although the guy deserved it… for being an asshole…

I came to a stop, got inside the house.. My mom was already setting the table,

….. Hello mother, she looks at me and smiles

‘’How's my favorite son’’

Mom I'm your only son.

““of course you are my only son, who doesn't even care to visit his mother,””

mother….

“”What? you know i am telling the truth””

Alright fine I'm sorry i will try to visit you more in the future (laughing)

Soooo i got you a gift “”you know you don't have to get me anything””

Yes i know but i just wanted to get you something nice, “‘thank you baby i love it”’let me go get your dad,and please can you two try to get along”’

Mom you know i can't control how dad feels about me, sighing’ fine i will try to get along with him but that's only because of you…

“I thought you weren't going to come son*

(Seriously? Is he trying to piss me off)

Well it's not like you gave me any other choice,’now mom looks like she's about to explode’

I mouthed sorry to her before taking a seat, so far dinner is moving fine so i guess that's a good thing

(Yeah right, until someone f*****g ruins it)

“”Have you closed the deal with Mr James yet?””

.. No i haven't, we agreed to reschedule the meeting for tomorrow morning_,

“”Hmmm alright, you shouldn't take long with important things like this before it becomes a problem””

(Are you f*****g kidding me)

Yes father,I'll keep that in mind.

_ so umm dad was there a particular reason for this dinner?

“_ahh yes there is a reason,” I have decided to hand the company fully to you, which also includes you getting all your inheritance, since you have proved you can handle the company well”

(Well that's definitely not what i was expecting)

.._Well thank you father I'm glad you feel this is the right time to hand me over the company completely.

“”Yes of course son,””

“_congratulations baby I'm so proud of you, now you have a lot of responsibilities to uphold”

Thank you mom….

So mom how's the fashion hou__..

I got cut off by dad saying

“”There are conditions you have to follow before you take over””

What? Dad but i thou…

“‘You are to get married to someone of my choosing”’

_Dad what the f**k?

I'm not getting married especially to someone i don't know.

‘Mom looks confused’ I guess she didn't even know something like this was going to happen

“Honey when were you going to tell me our son is getting married? And to a stranger for Christ sake”

“He's not marrying a stranger, it's the daughter of my good friend Anderson and she's the perfect match”__ and just before you think of rejecting this you should know that without getting married you get nothing,not the company or the inheritance””

“What?” My eyes widen.

Dad you can't be serious, right?

_”as a matter of fact i am entirely serious and I'm not changing my mind,

But dad__ “look son it's high time you grow up and i know this is what's best,so if you want to get your inheritance and the company you will do as i say”” oh we meet the family in a few days”

Then he left the table, i stood there looking really angry then i followed him into his study.

Father can we please talk about this, i can't get married I'm not ready to settle down yet.

“”There's nothing to talk about except you want to walk away then i will gladly give the company to someone else””

What? You can't do that,I've worked my ass off for this company to let you give it out to someone else.

“Then it is settled you will get married and if you do well i will hand it over but if you don't then someone else takes over”

I’m clenching my jaw, and balling my fist it almost turned white,i said fine i will do as you say then i left before i do something stupid.

Saying good night to my mother then i left,

I need a f*****g drink’

“I’ve been calling and texting you for the past hour, man,” Frank informs me.

His massive shoulders hunch forward as he swipes the whiskey bottle from my hands.

“Seriously, where the hell have you been?” he grumbles. Your mom called saying you left after talking to you dad,so i guessed something was up,”

It's a surprise frank a f*****g surprise

“What’s this surprise you kept blabbing about?”

I'm getting married man.

“What the fuc…? What do you mean by that?

Stop playing with me man, tell me what's really going on”?

Frank i am not playing,I'm really getting married and there's nothing i can do about it if i want to keep the company and my inheritance..

“What?” So that's the reason your father invited you over?

Yes man that's the reason,

Apparently it's his friends daughter and we are to meet in a few days.

“Damn dude this is huge,i mean i didn't think you would be the first to jump the broom but wow congrats bro”

Seriously man?why the hell are you telling me congrats like that's supposed to make me feel better?

He laughs”because i am happy for you,at least you won't die lonely”

“So do you know if she's hot?”

Bro seriously? “What”

Well i was too busy getting pissed i forgot to ask my father if she was hot or not.

“”Hahahaha fine I'm sorry but this could be a good thing, besides at the end of the day you are getting what you want””

Yeah you're right i think i know what to do, frank looks at me strangely”what do you mean”

I get married to this mysterious girl,get her to sign a contract,we stay together until i get my inheritance then we get a divorce.

“_what? Man why would you do that?”

Look frank this is the perfect plan,

“Uuhnn and how do you intend to convince her?”

It's easy i just have to work my charms besides I'm sure she can't resist my dashing looks.

“Hahaha dashing looks?that's your plan? Well good luck with that”

Thanks bro but i don't need luck, i got this all under control.
