CH.5: The Dinner (Kyle's POV)

(Kyle's POV)

It's been like thirty minutes already,I really have the urge to flip the table and leave. But I had to refrain myself after what grandpa had said to me

[6 hours ago]

I was on my way back to my apartment, when grandpa called."Kyle we have a dinner planned with the Robertsons, you have to be there."

"And why is that, 'I' have to be there?"I retorted. "Well, son that is because you are getting married "he answered nonchalantly."WHAT!, Grandpaa we already talked about this... I am not getting married, and also I am dating Sofia right now, and you know about it" I was getting annoyed."I remember, I know you have a girlfriend,but you have got to see she is not right for you Ky...No matter what, you have to be there or else you will be facing consequences..."he concluded.I just hung up,I know my grandpa he is a man of his words, I don't know what he will do if I don't listen to him, I wont like it either...ARGH! this is actually frustrating!

**********************************************************************************

[PRESENT]

I was casually looking around and when the door to our room opened; there were three people, two girls with polar opposite dressing and expression. One of the girl who had quite revealing clothes: deep-V black dress which came till a little below her mid-thigh and thin straps, a thick layer of makeup with bright red lipstick, and giving me slut vibes.She kept staring at me until I found it creepy, however I am obviously used to those kinds of stares already, but I am kinda guessing that she is the 'heiress',she has the spoilt-bitc*y aura. Whereas the other one walked in with a straight posture, head held high,nonchalant expression basically it was blank, but it was also with full confidence, her expression seemed to be saying 'what dafuq am I here again', And...no makeup? that is surprising not to see it on a girls face.

My eyes followed her every movement, her every reaction, especially when grandma gave her bone-crushing hugs where she is about to die any second,I gave out a low chuckle. She sat down next to grandma, actually forced.Dinner continued, if anyone asked her anything she would answer without thinking 'oh uh-huh,hmm, ah yes, ah no', as if she was in daze not caring what was going around her, who was she next to,she just...had all her attention to the food, I felt that I was watching 'food-porn' or something. She acted like a child who had their favorite dishes on the table, 'look at her savouring that fried prawn', most girls would stay the hell away from fried stuff...but her, she is eating it like that's the best food on the planet.I was amused to be honest,and a little annoyed she hadn't glanced at me even once, does she not know that I am also here? Grandpa cleared his throat and said to Mr.Robertson,;" So Richard, when do you wan't hold the wedding ceremony..." it also got my attention and I looked towards her,I was thinking that it would be so much better if she is the one I'm married to,not this little slut next Mrs.Richardson, grandpa then continued,"ceremony of Kyle and Naira..."

* COUGH*COUGH*COUGH*

All of the eyes were on her. Why is choking like she just heard a death sentence? when she calmed down she asked my grandpa,"excuse me, what did you just say?", 'She has a nice voice' I thought. Then my grandpa replied very calmly like he was expecting this reaction,"I said marriage between you and Kyle". I looked at my grandpa in confusion, what is he talking about? I she...no wayy! I she actually the 'heiress',oh fuck fuck! how in the hell I did not realize that?! I may have been looking really calm on outside, but I seriously freaked out, why am I even freaking out?, what the hell is wrong with me? How would I know that she is the actual daughter...'that's because you judged on the appearance ,dic*k head' a voice in my brain said. "I am sorry I didn't quite get you, what are you talking about and who's Kyle?" she looked at my grandpa in utter confusion, her expression spelled out like,'what dafuq is he talking about?', what she said about me, had left me in confusion, wait does she really not know me.Her eyes were still on grandpa, and anger with disbelief filled her eyes, as she heard the next thing from him, "Kyle my grandson, your father and I had a contract, to be precise a marriage contract.Due to some conditions and to expand the business, to have more collaborations we thought it would be great to join country's top companies, which being your father's and mine ,also it wont just be two companies joining hands but also two families."

Her eyes followed where grandpa pointed, which was me. A glance? she just glanced at me for like a second and frantically looked at her father, her questioning gaze pleading him to her tell her that was not true.Guilt was that was all over her father's face and she looked at her brother I am guessing, the same thing as his father was on his face:guilt. She composed herself and turned towards grandpa and confirmed," you have to-have to hold a marriage with our family?", and he just nodded. "Well you can have Seirra...she is also a Robertson now", with those words, she had left me baffled, 'is she crazy?! what the hell is she thinking ?? Does she not get who she is marrying to?' I asked myself, not believing that she doesn't know what she is talking about. Grandpa interrupted" it needs to be between the 'heirs' and of course the biological daughter of the Robertson",her face became expressionless,she nodded her head and slowly got up to leave,ignoring her father and her brother calling her name out." It's fine, just leave her for now Robert.She needs to collect her thoughts" my grandpa said to father and son. 'What's there to collect her thoughts in, I mean it simple we are getting married that's it, there is no say in for her about the marriage' I thought to myself. Mr.Robertson just nodded his head and slowly sat down. We finished the dinner in silence except for Mrs.Robertson and her daughter trying to strike a conversation, We were done and waiting down in the car park when my grandpa and Mr.Robertson were having a private conversation, "I am so glad that your grandpa rejected Naira's suggestion about marrying you to her step-sister" my grandma came to my side and said, actually even I was glad that it was her not her step-sister.And how come I am okay with this....? Y'know what, just fu*k it, I'll think about it later.
