Your POV

Our parents made us have an arranged marriage.

I was angry about it at first. That is, until I met him in person.

William.

I fell in love with him, but he's in love with another. He has a girlfriend, and she's a gold digger. William doesn't know it, though.

I know I can't tell him how I feel. He loves her, not me. And we made an agreement.

We will never act as a couple unless we're in the presence of our families.

One small thing: Our wedding is tomorrow. I feel bad that he has to marry me while he likes someone else.

It hurts that he doesn't feel the same for me, and it hurts me that he's dating someone who is only there for his wealth. Once he realizes it, it's going to crush him.

The girl's name? Tiffany.

My best friend, Ronald, comforts me about the situation. He's the only one who knows about William and I's agreement, other than Will's "girlfriend."

I'm so grateful for Ronald. I never would've made it here without him. Without his support and comfort.

I sigh and collapse onto my bed face first, silent tears spilling out of my eyes. I sniffle and roll over, wiping my tears away. The wedding is tomorrow, and I'll be married to the man of my dreams. Yet he won't feel the same for me.

Is this truly my life? Marrying some guy who doesn't love me back? A guy who's dating someone else while he's with me? And I'm..okay with it?

No, I'm not okay with it. But I let it side. For his happiness.

I wish my life would be different. That this wouldn't be happening to me.

Before I know it, I've fallen asleep with dried tears staining my cheeks.

When I wake, I sit up and yawn with a stretch. I stand and walk into the bathroom, cringing at my face. I turn on the water faucet and wash my face free of the evidence of my tears.

I just chill in my room for hours and hours on end, waiting until I must get ready for the wedding. It will be taking place at sunset.

I then turn on the shower and open the bedroom door when I hear a knock. There stands Ronald with another lady. I let them in with a kind smile.

"Hey," I greet and they say 'hello' back.

"Are you ready for your big day?" the lady, Riley, inquires. She's a mid-aged woman who's supposed to get me ready for my wedding later today.

My heart aches a bit and I nod, giving a fake smile. I close my door and lock it so nobody can enter without permission.

Riley pushes me into the bathroom to take my shower as she prepares the dress, Ronald making my bed before sitting on it. Waiting patiently.

He's a gentleman, so I know he won't look at me when I exit until I'm fully clothed.

I shut the bathroom door and lock it, then begin to undress myself. Tossing the clothes aside, I step into the shower. The water feels nice against my body and as it combs through my hair.
