Wow that is a big request my boy. Mr. Stone-will said with a
surprise look
I know it is a big request but I just wanted you to know how I felt
about your daughter. He could hear his heart beat fast and
prayed
Well Annabel darling what do you think? Her father who felt
sorry for not being there for her when she was young and needed
a father but now is after her joy
I already turned down his offer when he asked me so I don't know
why he still brought the matter up again, can't you just let me be?
She asked no one in particular
Annabel my dear why don't you give it a thought and give him the
answer later after thinking about it thoroughly. Aunt Jess said
with a pleading face
But I don't have any feelings for him. She said and immediately
regretted her words because it brought sadness to the face of a
woman she loved dearly but knew she couldn't take her words
back now since it has been said.
Oh okay! Old Jessie said then stood up and went into the kitchen
with the leftover
You heard her Jason I didn't raise you well enough to a standard
of marrying someone like her. Aunt Jessie said and left
Am sorry Aunt Jessie I didn't mean it that way. She said but left
to her room in anger when she saw that the old lady refused to
accept her apology.
Annabel what sup? Why the face? He asked when he saw her
frowning at him and hardly giving him time to finish a sentence
