MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE I WAS TAKEN ABACK!
Christiana's point of view I was in a deep slumber in my bed when the phone rang. I took it from the table beside my bed. It was my brother’s lawyer. I would have ignored the call if it was anyone else. I picked up the call and put my phone on my ear. “Christiana, be ready with my fee. The next hearing is near.” The lawyer informed me. “Yes, sir! Will be ready with the amount. Can my brother get bail this time?” I asked him anxiously. “Christiana, it is a murder charge. Things are not as easy as you think. Be patient enough.” He said to me, making me impatient all the more. “Patience! Are you serious?” I screamed. “Yes, do you even have anything in hand? Be calm and patient, Christiana.” He said to me calmly. “I have been patient enough for years. But got nothing. When will my patience be checked? My brother is innocent. He has done nothing. He has not killed anyone.” I said to the lawyer with tears in my eyes. “Christiana, I understand your frustration. But you need to under
MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE THE D-DAY
Christiana’s point of view “Hurry up, Christiana! You do not have much time. Anyways you do not have anything to do now except abide by me. Did you even bathe?” My stepmother rushed into my room with her orders. I rolled my eyes listening to her. I had felt her selfishness the millionth time. But this time it was different. I wanted to spoil her plan, nevertheless, I was helpless. “Stop it right now. We do not have time. Get ready for your wedding as soon as possible.” She pulled me out of my bed by my hair, pushed me into the washroom, and shouted at me to get ready for the wedding. Well, it was expected from her. Seldom she insulted me. It was her favorite time pass. “Yes, I am going.” I snorted in response. . . . . I was nearly ready in a few minutes. My curly black hair was pulled up into a French braided bun, along with my mantilla tucked into it properly. My makeup wasn’t speaking up, I wanted to go natural instead of bold. It did not matter to me much; I was not excit
MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE A NEW DAY- A NEW SURPRISE
Christiana's point of view When I woke up, I was pretty shocked seeing the surrounding. I was in a room consisting of scenic portraits, king-size bed, and the roof-top not at all familiar to me. My house did not have that view. Also, there were no large chandlers in the center of it. I pinched myself only to comeback to factuality. Gradually, I glanced at the room where I was sitting. Things seemed quite different. The room was quite big, I seemed like an ant lying on the floor. “Where am I?” I muttered. I tried to remember about what happened few hours back that I was there. I threw the blanket and stood straight. Amidst that my eyes went on a man sleeping next to my bed. I was conscious. The moment my barefoot touched the ground, I noticed he was Tiger and I was sleeping next to his bed. My eyes widened and I stepped back in fear. “Get use to this for a year. You are no more living in your home.” He chuckled whilst going out of the room. I frowned. Those words of him were enoug
MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE HAS HE GOT NUTS?
Christiana's point of view I groaned as the sunbeams snapped on my face. I was accustomed to awakening to a cock-crow voice. But now things have changed. It was a new place with new vibes. No matter when I slept, I usually got up by 7 in the morning. That day, too, was nothing different. I sat on the bed next to the king-sized bed – which was Tiger. I let a sigh remembering the escapades which took place one day back. The remembrances of the day were still on my mind. “Oh! I married that trader.” I muttered to myself. How did God let it happen? Am I so bad that he did not listen to my prayers? Everything is destined, and so was it. Thinking about that, I kept my thoughts at pause. “Good morning, Madam.” Miss Daisy, as usual, came to me and greeted me with a smile. After Tiger’s parent’s death, he grew up under her. Others were in charge of the mansion too, like Daisy. But Miss Daisy stayed closest to Tiger’s heart. He regarded her with immense respect and gratitude. It was alway
