I stood up firmly and breathed deeply as I looked at my mother. She didn't seem concerned about my feelings because she loved power and wealth.

My mind took me back《 Eight years ago, when I was just eleven years old. It was one of the summer rainy days and my father, Jackson was out in the farm helping his employees lock up the cattle. He loved farming so much and he believed that everyone shall eat from their own sweat. After he finished locking up the cattle he rode straight to home. But on his way the rain got more heavy, such that his car car lost balance and was flooded to a nearby river. He lost his life and left I and my brother fatherless and our mother a widow. Mother did everything to keep the family business running but she changed because of money. She gained pride, power and fame. All she wanted was to protect her reputation 》

"Mother, I cannot believe what you just did. You didn't even ask how I feel, if I'm ready. You just went on and decided my future, my life without me.", I said angrily.

I could feel my cheeks burn with anger that I pushed the chair I was sitting on back and went out to my room.

In my room --- "Father, why? why God? How can you let my life be this painful ? You know how much I love you and how I want to serve you. You know my love for you. Father God, please help me out. Let me not die in an arranged loveless marriage. ", I prayed tomyself crying.
