A Deal For A Lifetime

BETHEL POV

" you are getting married whether you like it or not, I can't just keep a 22-year-old daughter bonded to myself" Dad yelled angrily.

I can't believe Dad got

I engaged without my permission.

" Tell me, Dad, do you care about my happiness or your company??" I asked.

" well I care about your happiness but my company is falling, I don't know what to do about it, I have tried everything but this was the only option," he said calmly.

I love my parents and I Know they have spent years in their company and it was fine but now, it's not moving anymore, I stare at my dad.

" who am I getting married to????" I asked.

" you must have heard of him, his name is RICOSHAWN JEFFERSON, his father owns the biggest and richest company In New York," he said happily while I stare at him shocked.

" What!!!!! Dad you know I hate that guy and he is irritating " I yelled at him

" hey, calm down" he consoles me as he touches my back.

" Dad, I can't, they are nothing you would tell me that I would agree to it, I hate him and I would continue to hate him, nothing would change".

" oh I can see you hate us now, bethel I and your mom provide everything for you, your need and your want but what are you doing in return is making us suffer, I don't blame you bethel, I blame myself for giving birth to you" he yelled and started heading upstairs.

I sat on the couch as a drop of tears ran down my cheeks, I thought that is the truth, I have to do this for my family. I stood up from the couch then clean my tears then went upstairs to my room.

I am very light in complexion, I have a long platinum blonde hair, arched thick jet eyebrows, ana Aqua blue Generic eyes, ana upturned nose, small heart cherry lips, I am not that tall but I am okay, I won't lie I am not flat but I don't large ass and boobs let me just say medium, I have two sisters and a brother, they are all married, I am the last child of my parents, their names are Charissa- 30, Bianca - 27 and Charles- 25 and I love them so much, now let's end the introduction.

I knocked on my dad's door, and not long after he opened the door, I could see he was pretty angry at me.

" I would do it Dad" he smiled immediately after I said that.

" now that's the daughter I gave birth to ".

Dad hugged me immediately.

" you made the right choice, bethel," Dad said.

I looked at him and then nodded my head.

" I am so proud to be your father" he pecked my forehead, then went into his room, and then I walked back into my room.

RICOSHAWN POV

I drove into my dad's compound, he said he wanted to talk to me, I wonder what he is gonna tell me.

hey, my name is RICOSHAWN JEFFERSON, 25 years old, tall in height, I have an athletic body any woman would die for, generic light brown eyes, jet black hair,medium-thin pink lips, bottom round nose, a black straight scars eyebrows, I am very hot and I am proud of myself, I hate women so much, they are all gold-diggers apart from my mum, she is the love of my life, I love my mom so much, my parents are both Americans, I have a brother and a sister and I am older than them, Katherine - 7, Ricky - 21.

I came down from my black Lamborghini, then started heading to the door, I got to the door then rang the bell, the door opened showing mom shining her perfect white set of teeth, she hugged me tightly.

" mum," I said while struggling to breathe.

" Shawn my darling, where have you been, I can't believe you ditched me for two days," she said placing her hands on her waist.

" I am sorry mum" I apologized.

" don't worry about it, you remain my precious little darling," she said.

" mum, do you know you are still keeping me outside??".

" oh, sorry sweetheart," she said while leaving the entrance to the house.

I walked into the house and then saw Katherine sitting on the couch in the living room, eating popcorn, I quietly walked to her back then " boom" I said.

she landed her butt on the floor making the popcorn pour on her. she was shocked and very angry.

" I am sorry," I said immediately.

she sent me a deadly glare, I understood what that means.

" please Katherine, not my hair".

" then you would have remembered my clothes and my butt before doing that childish thing, I don't know why you behave like a child sometimes," she said angrily.

"I am sorry" I apologized again.

" oh don't worry about it, just carry me," she said as I quickly carried her hugging her to myself, she started using her hand to rough my hair. oh gosh, this is what I was afraid of.

" whoops, I am sorry," she said doing a puppy face and she knows I will always fall for that. I love Katherine so much, she is a very strict person, even at the age of seven (7), well my parents said we all took that strictness from my Grandpa, and yeah that's true, Katherine is nice but if you get into her wrong path, you would have to face the consequences, like pranks all the time, she would make sure you get hurt, I do respect her a lot. she knows my hair is so important to me that's why she did that.

" do you know how many hours, minutes, and second's I spent on this hair"?

" you should have thought of that when you decided to do something stupid," she said too.

" I found a handsome dude, but I'm not gonna show you the guy" her eyes light up immediately.

" you mean super handsome??" she asked then I nodded my head.

" Okay fine, I am sorry but can you show me to the guy tomorrow??" she pleased.

" on one condition".

" anything," she said.

" do you know what mum and dad want to talk about??" I asked.

" I have no idea but they have been acting weird since yesterday like they are keeping a secret from me," she said.

" oh whatever".

" am I still gonna see the hot guy??" she asked.

" yeah," I answered.

" yes, I am so happy,y," she said happily.

" But when you are 20," I said, soon her laughter turn to a chuckle.

" you are joking right??" she asked.

" n,o I am not".

" you don't tell me what to do, young man".

" enough for that argument" mum said as she and dad walked into the sitting room.

" can you believe your son said I won't see a super handsome guy until I am 20, who does that"?

" Rico, I thought I trained you more than that, didn't I tell you until she is 22" dad said.

" Dad, but you were 21 when you gave birth to Rico and mum was 19!!!" she said angrily.

" that was because your mum had 6 girls in her family, and you are the only girl here," dad said.

" And besides who would want to date her???" I said as she sent me a deadly glare.

" Soohoo," I said drawing the so.

" now end of this talk, this was not the reason why I called you here" dad sat on the couch.

" sit down every" we all sat down.

" well the reason why we called you here is that we wanted to discuss something with you," he said then I nodded my head.

" I know you are going to be angry with what we are about to tell you, hone,y," mum said

I wonder what they want to tell me.

" you are getting married, Rico".
