Kendall's P.O.V:
Allison and I were sitting in the couch facing my dad who looks uninterested. I look at Allison who's biting her lower lip. I glance back to my dad and see no emotions on his face. I clear my throat and I catch my dad's attention.
"Dad, this is-"I say but my dad cut me off.
"Who are you?" he asks Allison. Allison looks up as she tries to sit comfortably.
"I'm Allison Rose, sir." She says as she stands up and extends her hands for a hand shake. My dad looks at her hands then back to her with a slight look of disgust.
"Rose? Your family name is Rose? Ha, Kendall I should have know." My dad says as he slaps Allison's hand away from him. Allison's shock but she just sit down and start to fidget her fingers.
"So, you're the daughter of Alice and George Rose? I should have know." My dad says. I glance back to Allison who has her head lowered down.
"Don't talk to my fiancé like that." I say.
"Her? Kendall, don't you know that they are one of the poor people here in our city? I prefer for you to marry another rich girl who can handle a business like this." My dad says as he leans back to his chair and extends his arms.
"Dad, I'm marrying Allison and that's final." I demand.
"She's a disgrace to our family Kendall!" my dad exclaims as he stands up and put his hands down to his table making a slap sound.
"She's not a disgrace father! You are! You make me choose girls whom you think are good enough for the business. I choose Allison dad, you should be happy that I finally have someone whom I can marry." I say.
"Not with her. I mean look at her, she's a filthy little girl who just needs some money. How much did you pay to her?" my dad says.
"I didn't pay her to marry me! We've been seeing each other for a month now and I want her to be my so called wife."I say.
"Whatever Kendall. I don't care if you marry her, I will send some girls for you to meet still." My dad says as he sits on his chair.
"What? Dad, I'll be marrying Allison soon! You will not send any girls to be my wife!" I say.
"Watch me son. I will and I won't stop until you pick one." He says.
"Now you may leave with your filthy rat." My dad says as he turns around and I can hear him typing on his computer.
"Let's go." I say and Allison stands up as I sling her bag to my shoulder. I grab her hand and give it a squeeze once we're on the elevator. She keeps her head down so I can't see if she's alright. Once when we're on the car, the loudness of silence makes me deaf.
We reach Allison's house. She gets out with me so I can walk her to their front door. I sigh and lift her chin to see her trembling lips and her eyes were near from crying. I grab her hands and pull her for a hug.
"Shh, it's alright. I'm here." I say as I run my fingers through her soft hair. She starts to cry harder and I just keep my arms around her tighter.
"Don't think about what my dad said. He's the filthy rat." I say.
"But your dad was right when he asked you if you paid me to marry you." She sniffs.
"He right but he doesn't know all of it." I say as I give her one last hug before pulling her away from me. I lift her chin and I dry her tears in her cheeks with my thumb.
"Don't cry." I say.
"I have to talk to you." I say and she nods.
"You will be moving in with me." I say and she looks at me with wide eyes.
"What?! I can't leave my family here! Are you insane?!" she asks.
"No, and your parents aren't leaving here anymore." I say as I motion to their front door.
"What are you talking ab- where did you take them!" she asks.
"Don't worry, I didn't kill them. My mom, who happens to hate my dad, helped me pick a house for your parents. But don't worry, their house isn't far away from my mom's." I say and she sighs in relief.
"Thank you, for everything." She says.
"Don't thank me yet." I say.
"Let's go grab some of your clothes and we will go to your new house which is my house." I say and she laughs.
Allison's P.O.V:
"Wait. Some of my clothes?" I ask.
"Well, let's just say that both our moms shop you some new clothes." He says slowly.
"They didn't have to." I whisper.
"But my mom insisted." He says as he opens my front door and enters like it's his own house.
"Now go pick up some of your clothes." He says emphasizing the word 'some'.
"Why are you being nice to me?" I ask once I enter my room with him following me behind.
"Because of my dad, so don't worry, I'll be mean tomorrow." He says and I nod. Actually I want him to be mean, I don't know why but it's better that way. After 10 minutes, yes ten minutes. I don't have a lot of clothes okay! I only pick some that will fit on my duffel bag.
"Let's go." He says as we both leave my house of box.
"So, I talked to my lawyer last night." He says.
"Go on." I say.
"Well he made our contract a little legal." He says.
"The contract that I gave to you?" I ask and he nods.
"And he also helped me with some marriage terms. We only have to be a married couple for twelve months then after that we can file a divorce. The only reason that I'm going to get married is because of the business and it states there that the person who will be handling the business must be related, or married. So all we have to do is to be a married couple for twelve months." He says.
"Wait. Isn't twelve months a year? And why do we have to wait for twelve months, we can file a divorce a week after right?" I ask.
"Yes it is a year. We have to wait for a year because it is against the law to be married then file a divorce the following day." He says and I nod.
"So all we have to do is to wait for a year then we can file divorce and that will lead us to Rule Number 5." I say.
"Rule number 5?" he asks.
"Rule No. 5 states that 'If the deal is done, we must not speak to each other. For short, we must be strangers to each other.'" I say.
"Wow, you memorized it." He says sarcastically. Good thing he's back to normal.
"Yeah because I made it." I say and he rolls his eyes.
"Whatever." He says as he starts to check his phone.
"Talk about change of heart." I mumble as I watch all the people in the window of the car.
"Wake up!" someone yells on my ear. I bolt up and glance on Mr. Knight who has an annoyed face.
"We're here?" I ask. He rolls his eyes and sighs.
"That's the purpose of waking you up." He says.
"Fine. Sorry." I say as I open the car door and head out to see a beautiful mansion.
"This is your house? It's like a freaking mansion." I say.
"Because it is." Mr. Knight says as he the double doors open to reveal a massive living room.
"Wow." I mumble.
"I take it that it's your first time here?" he asks and all I can do is nod.
"Stop drooling you'll get the carpet wet." Mr. Knight says as he walks towards the staircase.
"Are you coming or what?" he asks. I shake my head and grab my duffel bag before following him upstairs.
"So…where do I sleep?" I ask.
"In a bedroom." He says.
"I know that jerk. I mean where to be exact?" I ask.
"Here." He says as he points to the room to my right. I nod and open the door and it leave me paralyzed again.
"This is the exact size of my house!" I exclaim as I walk in slowly.
"If you need me don't even bother." Mr. Knight says as he enters the other room which is opposite to mine.
I start unpacking my things. I keep on finding the small drawer for my clothes but all I can see in a drawer right next to my bed. I sigh and decided to open the double door which is probably my bathroom. I open it and my mouth drops on the floor. It's my own closet! Wow, I never thought that I can have this kind of closet. When Mr. Knight said about buying me clothes, it means filling the whole room with new clothes. I look at my duffel bag then back to the closet. I go inside as I run my fingers through the clothes. It so soft like a baby's butt. Once I get into the far end, there's a small red button, I press it and the wall in front of me turn and I see dozens of bags and shoes. I shriek and jump up and down as I look at the things around me. It's a dream that a poor people like me would imagine. I grab my duffel bad as I walk towards the drawer. I put them all in before changing to some comfy pajamas (which is an over-sized shirt and panties). It's almost six but the sky is darker. Then it hit me, it will rain. I change brush my teeth quickly but surely before lying on my bed and covering myself with the blankets. I need to sleep before the rain comes.
Kendall's P.O.V:
My dad called and said that he got some girl for me to meet but I declined the offer and he's furious about it. He thought that I'll be living in my apartment but he didn't know that my mom planned to build me a house so that my dad wouldn't know where we are because she will be the last person my dad would talk to.
I sigh as I lay on my bed. I'm about to sleep when I hear the thunder roar. The new said that it will have a slight rain not a freaking storm. I close my eyes for a minute before dozing off. Suddenly I hear my door creak open to reveal a girl figure.
"M-Mr. Kn-knight?" she asks.
"What?" I mumble. She didn't answer but she close the door and walk towards my bed. I can finally see what she's wearing and to tell you I didn't like to deal with my little friend right now.
"Can I sl-sleep here?" she asks.
"What? A big girl can't handle a thunder?" I joke. She shakes her head and a loud sound of thunder comes in and she literally jump into my bed exposing her white laced panties. She goes under the covers and scoot right next to me. I can feel her shaking so I put my arms around her. She looks up to me and closes her eyes tight when a lightning comes into view.
"Care to tell me?" I ask. I massage her back and I notice that she's not wearing a bra since I can't feel something in her back, only her smooth shirt and her curves.
"When I was six, my older brother and I are playing through the rain. My parents aren't home so we can do whatever we want." She pauses when a lightning followed by a thunder comes in. she scoot closer to me bringing our bodies closer as possible.
"It was raining hard but we didn't care. I asked him if it's possible to fly a kite while it's raining so hard. My older brother said no while I said yes. We began fighting about it until my brother decided to test our theories. He walked back inside the house and came back with our new kite that our dad bought for us. He started running with me trailing behind. Of course it flew but not that high. I was supposed to say stop when a heavy wind passed us and both of us started to play with the kite. I was still trailing behind him when a huge lightning came and hit my brother right in his skull. I was standing there and staring at him like I just saw a ghost. I was about to help him when the sound of the thunder came. I began crying when I realized that he was dead. I was there all night with him until my parents search for us. Both of my parents tried to calm me down and said that it's not my fault but it is. I dared him to see if our theories were true. It's my entire fault Mr. Knight, if I didn't dared him he wouldn't die." She says as she cries on my chest.
"It's not your fault." I say.
"All of you said the same thing!' she says as she cries on my chest harder.
"Just let it out." I say. Soon, her cries die down as I run my fingers through her hair. I look down and I see her sleeping peacefully like nothing happened. I close my eyes and tighten my arms around the girl whom I didn't know but sleeping peaceful in my bed as I comfort her.
