Chapter Twelve

Marriage

I hate the idea of marriage. Its a bad idea, and I will forever refuse to get married. I don't understand it at all. Why do people even fool themselves by thinking they'll love the same person for the rest of their lives? Doesn't make sense.

Anyway, I'm going to this island to work for my aunt. My cousin Julia says that when I get to the island, and meet this farmer or whatever, I'll change my mind.

I highly doubt that.

She says that this farmer girl is loud, free-sprited, and happy all the time.

Not my type.
