1 Why me

It wasn't long till I knew the truth, my life, my world, everything was crashing down around me. why? what did I do to deserve this?

My story began three years ago, when my mother died, she was a beautiful woman, her hair was as golden as the sun, and rivaled that of even the purest of silk. Her skin was as flawless as that of Aphrodite's beauty itself. Her smile could shine as bright as a full moon in even the darkest of rooms, but then one day, she was taken from my life. Not long after my mother's death my father decided that it was best for the family to have me married to a suture of his choice. That is when everything changed.

after that, day after day, I was to attend "classes" to learn how to be a proper wife to a noblemen. I learned how to sit properly at a table, what utensils where proper for each meal, how to conduct myself in public and at parties. Each day was as tiring as the next. Till the day my father came in and told me that he had found my suture, and that we where to meet for the first time in one week. I froze. So soon? Did he even take the time to do a background check? Or did he only look as far as there asset's? All these questions played through my head, but what did they matter? My father was definitely not going to hear my pleas, I was a means to more Income as far as he was concerned. Even my mother was nothing more than a paycheck to him, he only cared about the extension of land and wealth that marrying her had to offer. So, without another word, I was loaded up into the car to begin my introductions to my soon to be husband. I can only hope at this point. As I waved goodbye, I watched as my home, and my mother's grave at the top of the hill drifted out of sight.

Looking out the widow as we drove, my mind wondered, what kind of man am i destined to marry? would he be anything like my father? All these things that raced through my head, but among them all i only had one question, Why? Pushing these thoughts out of my head, i looked at the driver, when are we expected to arrive? "we will be arriving at the airport in half an hour m'lady" The airport?! Where exactly is my destination? "London UK m'lady" Of all the nerve! First he forces me into an arranged marriage, now i'm to move to a whole other country?! Gripping the fabric of my dress i look down, tears swelling up in my eyes. Why? Does my father hate me so to send me so far away? The driver gave no response other than the look of sympathy on his face. I had read about marriages such as this in books, but never had i thought i would suffer such a fate. As the tears flowed, i gritted my teeth, how could he do this to me? His own daughter?! With my eyes filled with tears, i sit in silence for the rest of the ride. Once we arrived at the airport, my bags where carried to the reception desk where I received my ticket, from there i went to the restroom to fix my hair and makeup. My pale skin was stained red from my tears, my blond hair flowed as i let it down from my uptight bun. Deciding to straiten it i took my flatiron from my bag and made myself more presentable in my eyes. If i was to leave this country, then i will do so as me, not this image that my father has created. I washed away the makeup that my nanny had done and replaced it with shadow eyes and rosy red lips, I took a step back to observe myself in the mirror, the dress was definitely not working for me. I returned to the reception desk to see how long i had till my flight. "you have one hour ma'am" thank you. With that i made my way to the shop across the street, where i made my way to the back. I opted for the knee-high stiletto boots, with a skintight top that stopped just below my chest, and a black leather mini-skirt. After i payed for my new attire i returned to the dressing room, changed my cloths, and through away my dress on my way out.

Once aboard the plain i noticed that i was the only one in first class. "just like my father" of course he payed for me to have first-class all to myself, god forbid me to have anyone else to talk to. Within minutes the pilot spoke over the loudspeaker informing everyone that we where preparing to depart, with that i looked out the window. I will return father and will take everything away from you just as you have done so to me.
