"Marriage?!", Shouted Raya at her father, "You'll be married into a wealthy family, what are you bratting about? He's well mannered, he's smart.", his father said slamming the table, "But this is so sudd–", Raya said but before she could finish what she was saying, "How dare you talk back to your father? you're in the right age of marriage!", Her father shouted, Raya stands up and looked at her father's eyes, and went out of the door.
She went inside her bedroom, locked herself in, she went straight to her bed, sitting anxious, biting her nails and all, her tears started to fall, "What was he saying?", she thought, she can hear some words in her mind; "Marriage? At this age? no",
"Should I just hang myself here?", her instrutive thoughts are getting in. She hit her head among the walls and continued to bite her nails until they were bleeding, staring through nothing thinking of something. "Marriage? can't be... father must be joking...What should I do? Hide in this room forever? that's stupid. Should I confront that guy who I should be marrying? What the hell is going on?", she thought to her mind, thinking she is going crazy.
"Raya?", someone knocks at the door, she immediately wiped her tears off, knowing if someone knew about it, it would cause alot of more problem.
"Yes? who's that?" Raya answered,
"It's me Hao, You okay there?",
"Yeah. I'm fine", she answered before opening the door, "What are you doing here Hao?", she asked, "I heard the news... I'm sorry about it, I came here because I kne–", he answered before getting cutted by Raya's words,
"What do you mean? why would I be sad about it?"
"I know you Raya. Ever since we were children..."
He notices that Raya was hiding her hands, he grabbed them and pushed Raya back inside the room, he looks at her fingers, "Raya... You can tell me what's wrong...", Hao asked holding Raa's hand gently, he looked at her eyes with a gaze.
Raya started sobbing. She fells down on the mat, and so is Hao. Raya was crying and Hao was comforting her...
