Belarus sighed and leaned her head against the glass of the car door. She looked up at the trees and stars and closed her eyes, remembering the exact moment she found out her life was going to end up as hell.
FLASHBACK: That morning
"ARRANGED MARRIAGE!?" The scream was heard resounding through every corner of the house. "BIG BROTHER YOU CAN'T DO THIS!" Louder than the scream was the sound of the door slamming shut and of a girl running upstairs into her room, sobbing. The whispers of her brother and sister downstairs were what made the matters worse for her.
"Are you sure Natty can handle this, Ivan?" The eldest sibling's voice carried throughout the house, though try as she might to be quite.
"If it get little sestra to stop following me." The Russian's voice pierced her heart. She had wanted nothing more in her life than to become one with her brother, not to satisfy herself, but to make him happy and have him finally able to say he was one with someone. The young blonde woman stayed locked in her room the entire day after that.
PRESENT TIME
Now, trapped in the car with the man who'd betrayed her and the woman who'd done nothing to stop this, she figured out that there was no way around this. She was becoming forced to marry whom ever the mystery man was. She watched as snow began to hit the window, and smiled a little.
It was December 24th, Christmas Eve. The Soviet family, Ivan, Yekaterina, and Natalya, were on their way to visit an old family friend, the betrothed to the youngest sibling. Natalya sighed and looked at the boxes of gifts beside her.
When they pulled up to the house she nodded in approval. It was a small log cabin style, two story house. A fence was visible, fencing in an in ground pool and a back yard. There was a small two parking space garage, in one was an already parked silver mustang. She looked up at the shining lights and wondered who the mystery man could be.
Grabbing the gifts, Natalya looked around at the house once more, before walking to the side entrance door ringing the bell. A few minutes later, her fiancée walked and opened the door. The gifts were dropped as the young woman's eye twitched.
