Married at 19

Chapter 13

It has been a week since the lawyer stated the testament which I need to get married at my age in

order to fulfil my family’s tradition. Well, since Mr Dawson suggested me to marry his daughter, which

really freaked me out, but I have to accept it or else I need to get married with random girl who I

happen not know at all.

So it will be nice to get married with someone I knew since childhood, well yeah.....she is Bella

Dawson.

And her father even gave us his blessing...

To be honest, I only considered her as a friend, not more than that. I am totally in love with Sasha

and of course not her.

I’m sorry Bella, I didn’t mean that. I like you, but only as a friend.

And yes...I admitted that she's beautiful, gorgeous, soft, kind heart and also a smart girl. She’s the

perfect girl, but I’m not worth for her. She deserves better than me.

Anyway, I really do love my parents so much and will do everything I could, so I decided to just

follow their last wish, especially my mom; to marry Bella, since she liked her to become my future wife.

Nah...it's just for a while. I will marry her for a year maybe until I turn 21 and the contract marriage

will be expired. Then, I will be free again.

But.....wait wait…what if I fall in love with her?

No.....noo....what I'm thinking? I'm in love with Sasha and I will love her forever....no one can ever

change my feeling not even her.

"Yo dope!!!" Seth suddenly patted my shoulder snapping me out from my freaking out thoughts.

"What are you thinking? I've been calling for you since forever."

I turned to look at him. "Oh....sorry. I have a lot things to think now."

"What is it about?" He asked confusedly. "Are you planning to steal my Sasha again, huh dope?"

I gave him a glare, "Dude....I'm not that kind of person, okay! That's so uncool."

He raised his hands as a surrender position. "I'm just saying, dope."

"Whatever hedgehog!" I said while packed my clothes into a bag.

"Are you sure, you don't want me to come with you?" Since when he is concerned with me? That's

totally weird.

"No....I want to be alone. Don't worry about me, hedgehog." Then put my grey sweater on.

"Besides, I feel not going anywhere this midterm break, just staying at my house, playing with Max,

maybe. Or even working part time at the cafe for a week. Need to make a lot of money now….could

you tell your big bro that I’ll be working this sem breaks?"

"Okay then I will....just tell me if you need anything."

"Alright dude...have fun with your vacation. Don't forget to buy me a souvenir there!" Both of us

bumped our fists together.

"I will....have fun too, dope!"

Phew....I was so glad that he bought that lie. I just don't want anyone to know about this not even

our friends. It will be the secret of us until the end.

I rode my superbike to Dawson Mansion because Mr Dawson asked me to stay at his place for a

while. The wedding will be in few days and he was planning to held it at his mansion where only the

family members will attend it.

Only Nick, Ciara and Bella's sister knew about this. And I don’t want the others know or my life will

be totally disaster. Besides, I don’t want my secret admirers do something bad to Bella. She's too nice

and fragile to be treat like that. I will protect her no matter, I promise!

"Nathan , please come in." It was already late in evening when I arrived at Dawson’s mansion, and

Mr Dawson was so friendly to greet me by himself and asked his maid to take my stuffs.

I smile, "Oh...thanks." The maid helped me to carry my backpack even though I hesitated to give it

to his at first.

"Eddie, please take this gentleman's bag and bring it to our guest room." Mr Dawson ordered his

maid to put my stuff somewhere in the big house.

I saw his maid went upstairs with my backpack and Mr Dawson guided me towards to his reading

room I supposed to call where the room was obviously full with shelfs and books on it and a fancy

computer desk on the center of the room.

"Take a seat, Nathan . Don't be shy. Please make yourself at home." Mr Dawson added.

"Thank you sir." I took a seat on the sofa in front of the desk opposite of him.

"So, about your wedding. I know it hard for you since you are too young for this. But I hope you will

treat my daughter very well,”he started.“For your information, she's a very gentle girl and a very good

daughter of mine. I hope you will never ever break her heart or I will do something beyond your

imagination." He sounded nice at first, but sounded even creepier at the end of his words, that making

me gulped once.

I will be dead if he knew I will marry his daughter just only for a year. Luckily, I asked the lawyer to

keep his mouth shut and even made a contract about our marriage without Mr Dawson knowing about

that. Moreover, Bella already knew about it, since I told her everything two days ago. She did not talk

much that day, maybe also in surprised with our sudden wedding.

Or maybe…she doesn’t want to marry me either.

I bet she already has someone she likes too.

Poor her, stuck in this kind of situation, because of my stupid family tradition that I have to obey.

If that so, I promise myself to treat her better during our marriage days and I’ll make sure she will

be always happy and of course I’ll be more caution not to fall in love with her or even make her to fall

for me, otherwise it will be hard for both of us.

"I promise myself, sir, to treat her better and even protect her, believe me." I made my words to

him. This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
