《Phone Swap》Part 4

As I enter the cafe, I look around and see it has not changed in a year. It's same as it used to be. I see Daniel already sitting on a table, I make my way towards him. He sees me and stand up to hug me, I side hug him and sit down.

He sits back and said "I ordered our regular and told Sam to bring them after we are done talking. So how did you take the news?" He looked so calm and happy about that news, so I ask him back "I guess you took that news too happily, may I ask why?"

He looked into my eyes and said "Lily, we have been best friends from childhood and we know each other more than anyone else. So it's better to marry your best friend than any other person. And I love you a lot."

I looked shocked at him and said "We were set up to be best friends and you are a player who change girls from time to time. So you can't like me, so stop joking. I am here to tell you that I am backing away from this contract. For me you are just like my brother, I can't think of having any romantic feeling for you ever." He looked broken.

He said in a pleading voice "I have changed, I did not had any girl in my life for past few months now. Please give us one chance. We can take things slow, we can date first and then marry in few years when you'll be ready. I will give you your space, please don't back out."

I look at him and said "I am sorry Daniel but I can't be with you. I don't feel anything for you." I got up and was about to leave, when he caught my wrist, the one which I had cut last night. I hissed in pain. He did not realize it as I was wearing a full sleeves t-shirt.

I turned back to look at him and he sat down on his knee and said loudly "Please marry me." I looked around to see people were looking towards us, this place had more crowd today then usual.

I looked down and said to Daniel in small voice "Get up and stop creating a scene, my answer will forever remain no." He did not leave my wrist "Just leave my wrist you are hurting me Daniel." He got up and forced his lips on my lips. I felt like vomiting, I felt dirty and uncomfortable around him. I pushed him back with all the force I had, slapped him hard on his face and before running away I said "Maybe I would have thought about us, if I was given more time. But what you just did is a perverted move and I will never forgive you."

I reached home and locked my door and cried. I was lying on my bed crying when I heard someone knock on my door. I asked "Who is it?" The person on other side said "It's me Lily, open the door we need to talk." I wiped my face and opened the door to see my parents standing on the door.

My father continued "I never expected such kind of behavior from you, how can you slap your future husband in public? It's all over internet and media will make an issue out of it. We never scolded you for anything, allowed you to do what ever you wanted to do and look what you did, ruined our name."

They both were looking too angry. My mother said "Now as a punishment you will marry Daniel in three days. We don't want any more stunt from you, which will spoil our name. So stay in your limits and start planning your wedding. Tomorrow morning we are going shopping be ready."

They left after that, I locked my room and cried. I was never a child like my parents said. I had never disobeyed them, never disappointed them. I always lived like they wanted, the only thing I asked them was the trip this year. How can they do this to me, and think such things about me. I wish they never found me in that burning orphanage 16 years back.
