"Why outside from Germany?"
I asked mom. I was smelling something bad in the air. Like, they are choosing someone from another country. Why? Our country has good people all around.
"Did you actually hear what I said?" Mom disturbingly asked me. "I'm repeating for God's sake. I said that we have a good-" "I heard it. But I asked why outside from Germany?" I instantly cutted her. "His family is so much renowned. They know English. Even he can speak Spanish, too. And yeah, what's the problem with you? You live in the UK until retirement. So, after marrying him, you two are living in Birmingham. Your father will buy you a house according to your fiancé's choice. It's his dream." My mom explained without a breath. And kept eating happily.
There were a few points to note. First of all, it doesn't matter that his family can speak English and it is still becoming a silly reason that you're choosing someone just because of it. Second of all, I don't want to be impressed by his Spanish. Third of all, my father didn't buy me anything. And he's now bouncing for buying us a house ACCORDING TO MY FIANCÉ? And last of all, F-I-A-N-C-É?!
Why is it feeling like he is already getting priorities? Who's he for getting all those?
I didn't say anything. But some of them were looking at my face for those answers. My friends were right about tonight. They knew about it. I should have prepared myself before.
I might not stop them from doing whatever they wanted. But it was my life. I had to speak up.
"Mom, I told you. Don't do hurry getting anything, please. It's a request. You know what happened in those past years. I am tired, mom. I can not make myself fit yet. I'm still not fit. I am trying to come back and score well, and you all are here trying to get a new life for me. At least, I gave you the confirmation that I will get married to YOUR CHOICE. That doesn't mean you want it to happen ASAP. I need a break." I got off from the table and came back to my room. I know everybody was looking at me.
They never listened to mine. My mom told me they would only confirm after giving the proposal and would fix the date after the World Cup. I didn't react nor speak a word. Since then, I closed my mouth forever.
I watched their movements.
Branded rings, even four pairs of it. They even invited well-known designers from the USA and France to design his dress. His each ornaments from different countries. Dresses to wear after wedding from Paris. Thank God the make ups were from my country. They even sleceted decorators to work a whole year to decorate the fucking wedding palace. God! Never seen them being so excited in my entire life.
They kept it up. Who cares?
I do not know when time passed while thinking about my unbelievable pasts. It was a knock for snacks.
"Coming." I confirmed them as I went to change my dress. But I was still between those. I was wondering, there was not even a single clue left for me to know it was Luka Modrić, whom I was marrying. Yeah, I know he knows English, French. But why on earth, I would think it's him? There's a lot of footballers who know French. And still, that's not impressive for me.
Lots of laughter in the background.
But it is true that he looks cute when he speaks English. Cause he can not tell a word properly. Sometimes, he keeps quite and thinks what will be the suitable word.
I called my friends then to give them thanks while watching him getting up and went to fresh. I didn't know I was talking on loudspeaker. When he came behind me to get his hairband from the desk, Draz says- "Hi. How are you? I'm Drazen." I was clenching my eyebrows, but he didn't notice. "HI. I'm fine. How are you? I remember you. You love my message?" Luka asked him as I gave him my phone. I was wondering- HE STILL REMEMBERS!
While taking snacks, I observed him. I am still wondering how life will go and how things will go between us. It's only the next day after the wedding. And I have already felt tired. I do not even think about the next days, I'm going to spend with him. But I guess I can ask him when we fly in another country. Cause we have to settle things down. I will ask at least one serious question if he has another one or if it was a forceful marriage. I want to make myself clear, even after knowing. I do not have any plans to live the entire life with him if he says no. But the corner of my heart says he HAS someone.
