Williams has never feel this way for a long time now. He kept thinking about this new girl he saw at the cafeteria, no woman has affected him in this way for such a long time. she looks so simple and innocent but endearing. She is not like all these girls that are dying to get his attention, yet she managed to stir up something in him. Even though, throughout the entire time of their conversation she did not smile and Williams kept wondering how much more beautiful she would look if she smiled.
But Williams pushed the thought of Olivia back to his head as he has another important thing to worry about for now. Williams just recieved a message from his parents and his mood has suddenly soured.
Williams was fuming in his room, his parents has made another call for the umpteenth time threatening to disown him and cut of his funds if he didn't abide to their will for him.
His parents has been a thorn in his flesh and their threat has become incessant these days.
His mom called him that afternoon with their incessant threat, nagging and complaints as usual and Williams did not even budge because he has gotten used to it.
" Son Why didn't you come home last weekend for the family gathering" Williams mom accused him with a nagging voice.
" Well I am busy with school, you and dad always wanted me to graduate with a good grade and I am working hard to achieve that any problems?". Williams answered her.
" Coming home to spend the weekend with your family, will not make your grades drop Williams, why are you doing this," his mother cried.
" Why are you and dad doing this to me mum, you people are driving me insane, you people don't want my peace of mind,"
" What do you mean son," his mother asked.
" Mom I want to ask you what you and dad wants from me, why are you always after my iife. When I come home you people always pressure me to leave and whenever I leave you people will still try to drag me back home, what have I done to you all,"
" What can't you be like your twin brother, he be never objects and he does whatever he is told, why must you be the black sheep of the family,"
Williams has a twin brother JohnPaul though they are not identical twins. They are like opposite side of a pole, their looks and personality are so different, so as a result they hardly get along, Williams couldn't even remember the last time they spoke to each other,
" Well he is your favorite son so stick with him, and stop bothering my life," Williams already knows that his twin brother can never replace him. JohnPaul might seem to be a fillial son, but he is not as smart as Williams. Williams has an advantage in looks, charisma, brain.
His parents know this, that is why they kept reaching out to him even though they have JohnPaul by their side. JohnPaul know he is terribly lacking in comparison to Williams so he tries as much as possible to suck up to his parents hoping to obtain some grace and favour.
" That dinner is with the Mario's family, you know but yet you deliberately missed it, why? Why would you miss it ? You know how important that dinner is for our family",
" Mum I told you I can't make it to the dinner because I have a workload to do, I already told you this beforehand mum, why can't you let me be,"
His mom took a deep breath before saying to him, " Chloe's parents want to finalize this marriage as soon as possible, we are planning to hold the wedding immediately after you guys graduation, so I want you to prepare yourself mentally".
" Mom I just want to know wether you care about me as your son or not", Williams voice was now thick with emotions.
" Of course you are my lovely son and I Care so much about you, so please stop breaking your mother's heart,"
" Mom have you been hearing any News of lately about Chloe," Williams mom was silent now, she knows where her son is driving at.
" Is this really The type of person you want me to end up with mum",
" I want the best for you son, once you and Chloe get married she will change for the better, you will have to tame her",
" No mom I can't tame Chloe, she is like a wide animal,"
" Our family future depends on you son, you knows the reason we are doing this, me and your father our hands are tied, it not like we have any other choices", her voice was gradually turning emotional, Williams don't know wether she is truly sobbing or deliberately trying to manipulate him.
" you and dad has a lot of choice, but you choose to sacrifice me to the wolves without caring about how I feel, listen to me mom, I am not going to be a sacrificial lamb for your happiness",
" We have no other choice son, we are going to fix another dinner next month, do your best to come and stop by avoiding Chloe, do your best and try to get closer to her", his mom said with a tone of finality and hanged up.
Williams lay down in his bed and thought about his life, people are seeing him as a handsome perfect gentlemen that has everything at his fingertips, but his life is actually full of darkness and he is swimming in it.
