I was heartbroken. I saw America with that guard... she lied to me... no wonder she trusted him so much... I still loved her but I couldn't trust her. I didn't love Kriss and I didn't want to marry a woman I don't love. My father had suggested to end the selection a couple weeks ago. I didn't know what to do. I didn't want to marry Kriss or America. I had already announced the final 2 girls and everyone expects me to get married tomorrow. I walked up to the door and knocked afraid of my fathers reaction to all of this. "Come in" his voice called. I slowly opened the door. "Ah, Maxon come to tell me you chose Kriss right?" He sounded hopeful. " Actually about the selection... I wanted to-" I was a little afraid to say this knowing something will make my heart hurt a lot. "I want to end the selection." Father looked confused for a moment like he was wondering what happened. "But the people could get mad! There was all of this hype about you choosing your wife and what? For it all to go to waste? But then again-" he paused a thinking this through " If you don't marry that dumb 5 I'm fine. They are supposed to have a report going on live during the time you're choosing so you can announce then. When do you want to start your new selection?" He asked. I still had feelings for America and so I wasn't sure if I could start another selection. "I don't think I'm ready to start a new selection. I just need time to wait." He took this in slowly. "Fine. Go now I have work." I left I wondered how the people would react to this. I guess I would find out tomorrow.
