Butler Ari told me to go to the living room to discuss something very urgent and important with my father.
"Good day, father. Is there any problem?" I greeted my father with an optimistic expression.
"Let's discuss about your engagement with Shinuké. Since Zuké and I had been planning for you two to get married ever since you and Shinuke were little".
"By that, it would also keep our ties with Nightingales stronger" my father said with a serious expression.
The Nightingales are our companion, Zuke Nightingale, Shinuke's father and my father's comrade.
I was shocked, Shinuké and I are childhood friends. He's abroad, If he finds out, he'll go crazy. I have to tell my father that i won't marry him, it'll ruin my friendship with Shinuké.
"But father, Shinuké and I are childhood friends, it'll ruin our friendship. And besides, Shinuké is abroad, if he finds out he'll go crazy" I said, with a slightly mad face and tone.
"He won't. Zuké will talk to him when he gets back" father said.
"Father, think about it, I don't even have feelings for him!" I said.
"You two will get married whether you like it or not" father said with a mad tone.
"I already told you, father! I won't marry him!"
I screamed inside the living room.
"Father, Shinuké will be back tomorrow. We must throw him a welcome party, it's our sister's fiancé after all" my brother, Mayo said.
That's when I walked out of the living room feeling mad.
Thinking of it..... it'll feel weird if my childhood friend would end up being my husband.
I got ready for bed to wake up early for Shinuké's welcome party.
My brother Mateo got me a stylist to style me for Shinuké's welcome party.
"Father will announce your engagement with Shinuké later. So you must look your best" my brother Mateo said.
While getting ready to go downstairs, I heard Shinuké's voice. "That's him, he's back" whispered to myself. I searched for him in the palace, and that's when I saw him in the hallway.
"Shinuké!" I scream through the hallway. Shinuké looked back and ran to hug me.
"Minah! it's been a long time, how are you? My father told me about our engagement, finally! we can be together!" he said with a happy expression.
wait, what does he mean by that?!
"What do you mean? I-I thought you'd go crazy if you find out?..." i replied with a slight shocked expression.
