Li Shen Fei was walking cheerfully in the street, heading home from school. She is 17 years old now and next month will be her birthday.
Li Shen Fei said while walking " Adulthood here I go."
When she is near to her house, she saw a man snatch a old womans wallet.
She immediately run to catch the man.
Luckily she learned taekwondo and know how to defend herself.
When she catch the man. She kicked him and lie down on the ground and get the wallet of the old woman.
" Here is your wallet grandma, Be careful next time." She said when she gave the wallet
"Thank you young woman." The old woman said and left the scene
After that she called the police to grab the man who is seriously hurt because of her kick.
................
After few minutes.
"Get that man, but before you put him in jail treat his wounds first." she said and left the scene.
" Miss can you come with us to give a statement?" The police said
"Can I just give my statement here?I need to go home now, my mom said we have a visitor today."
Few minutes later.
"Thank you Ms. Li but next time you should just call peoples attention, you are still a kid."
"Sir I'm not a kid anymore." she said
After that she left the scene and immediately walk home.
But before she got home. . .
"You changed a bit."
Li Shen Fei turn around.
"Old brother, MingHao" she was shocked when she saw his childhood friend who she also considered as old brother.
"I saw how you helped the old woman." he said
"Is that really you? You grow a lot. What is your height now?" she asked
"189cm" he said
"The last time I saw you, we still very young. How long we didn't see each other again?" Li Shen Fei said while thinking how long they didn't see each other
" 10 years." he said
"Right. I was only 8 years old the last time I saw you." She said
"Can we go inside now? Your mom is worried about you that's why she send me out to fetch you" he said
"So you are the visitor that my mom is talking about." she said
They now reach home and her parents welcome them. Li Shen Fei noticed that Ming Hao's mom was not there only his dad who greeted her with a smile.
"Where is your mom?" Li Shen Fei asked Ming Hao
Ming Hao instantly change from good mood to bad mood.
Shen Fei's mom grab her to her side and whispered to her.
"Don't mention about his mom." Li Shen Fei's mom whispered
"Why?"she asked
"I'll tell you later."her mom said
They all entered the house and sit in the living room.
"Shen Fei, you became a young lady now.Does anyone from your school is courting you?" Ming hao's dad said.
"No one." she said
"But do you have a male friends?"Ming Hao's dad asked
"Yes. We've been friends for 10 years." she said
"Do you have special feelings for him?" Ming Hao's dad asked again
"Uncle. Why are you asking me this kind of questions?" she asked knowing there is something between those questions
"Okay. I will say it now straight to the point, your parents already agreed on this." Ming Hao's dad said seriously
"Agreed on what?" she asked
"Arrange marriage. The two of you will get married." Ming Hao's dad said
"WHAT!!!??"the two of them react
"As you all know, Us. your parents we've been friends since we were child and we promised to each other that our children will get married." Ming Hao's dad said.
"I'm not 18 years old yet. What about my studies?My dream?" she said
" You will get married after your 18th birthday next month, You will still live with your parents until you graduate highschool besides Ming Hao still have some works to do abroad after that the two of you will be living in the same house here in our country at that time Ming hao will fully manage our business and you will still continue your studies and do what you want after college." Ming Hao's dad said
"I disagree on this marriage, you never tell me about this, Is this the reason why we suddenly fly back home?" Ming Hao said
"This is also what your mom wants we plan this long time ago." Ming Hao's dad said
"I still disagree." he said
"Mom Dad how can you agree on this marriage?What will my classmates think about me?" Shen Fei said
"For now we will not tell anyone about your marriage, maybe in the future you can tell your friends."her mom said
"Hey, old brother Ming Hao. Don't you have a girlfriend? Maybe she can help us"Shen Fei said
"He doesn't have any girlfriend. To be precise he never had one." Ming Hao's dad said
"Can I not marry him? I don't like nor love him. How can I marry a man who I don't love?" she said
"Yah! Little one, I also don't love you." Ming Hao said
"I know, the one you really love is . . ." she wants to continue her sentence but her dad cuts her off.
"Shen Fei, Its better for the two of you to get married."her dad said
"Dad. How can you do this to your precious daughter." she said
"It's for your own good." her dad said
"Own good?What part of this marriage is good for me?"she said
*Shen Fei leave them in the living room and went to her room.
She sat on the side of her single bed and stare at a picture beside her bed*.
"It should be you, not me." Li Shen Fei said while looking at the picture.
