he looked at me looking so angry... oh God im gonna pee on myself right now!:can the guests go, i think this needs family.
said martin's mother... the guest started going one by one. you could see that others don't want to go but the guards escorted them out. martin's father went to martin and whispered something on his ears.
mr smith: can we all sit down?
martin: dad im really not in the mood to be sitting down right now... I need explanations!
i looked at him confused... can someone explain to me what is really going on?
dad: mr... mr martin i can explain.
he said stuttering... for goodness sakes my father is older than this man why is he stuttering ?
me: dad? you are older than him... you don't have to be scared of him.
everyone looked at me not believing what i just said... why must everyone be this scared of him? we all know that he is a mafia but does he bite? no.
sharon: tyla just keep quiet!
me: i am quiet.
i shifted my eyes and looked at calvin who had a confused look on his face.
me: what is going on here?
calvin: im also confused . but just know that your father is in deep shit.
me: what?
calvin: shh.
oh God he is not really helping right now... i looked at martin who had anger written in his face.
dad: can we all sit down and talk about this?
martin closed his eyes and went to sit on one of the chairs and everyone else followed... i stood on the corner looking at everyone.
mom: tyla sit down.
me: but...
sharon: tyla please.
i rolled my eyes and went to sit with my sister, i looked at martin who was opposite me.
dad: mr smith i don't think there's a difference between tyla and sharon.
me: wait! why are you involving me? Please don't.
martin: there is a difference mr jones! i know what i wanted and you do what you do! I am a fool right?
mom: please hear us out.
martin: shut the **** up mrs jones!
me: don't talk to my mother like that mr!
martin looked at me and chuckled.
martin: bold of you to say that huh? you know i can end your life in just one second if you want.
i swallowed hard looking at how serious he is right now!
mr smith: martin calm down.
martin: how can i calm down when i got married to the person i didn't want!?
what! he didn't want my sister? oh thank God this means that he is going to divorce my sister and get out of our lives for good? great!
calvin: who did you want then dear brother?
martin: her!
he said pointing at my direction, okay i know that he is not pointing at me. i looked back and there's no one on my side or back. no he can't be pointing at me right?
me: who?
martin: you.
me: who?
martin: stop acting dump cause you heard me.
i looked at my dad waiting for him to say something. martin is not serious right? no he is not. He is actually bad with jokes.
me: dad what is going on? please explain.
sharon: you ruined everything tyla, that is why i didn't want to talk to you.
wait is she blaming me? obviously she is!
me: what?!
dad: no one was supposed to find out that you and sharon are sisters. and you tyla you're the younger one!
no one was supposed to find out that im the younger one?
martin: too bad i found out.
he said chuckling... he took one sip of his whiskey with a smile on his face.
me: can someone explain to me everything in details... please.
calvin: I also wanna know cause im confused.
martin: you're always confused calvin.
martin looked at calvin who also looked at martin... why do i feel like these brothers don't like each other?
dad: as you know me and mr smith here.
he said pointing at martin's father who was just seated with his wife confused as hell.
dad: we have been friends for years and business partners obvious... my company has been going through a lot and it came to a time were it almost faced bankrupty. i asked my friend here to help me and indeed he did... but he wanted something in return, as you know in business we deal with negotiations.
me: what are you saying dad?
dad: what he wanted in return was for me to get his son married to one of my daughters and i told him I have two daughters the one who is 24 and the one who is 22... we told mr martin here to choose one. i didn't know that he was going to choose the younger one and that is you tyla. I am sorry.
