I was looking to move things forward with Willa, hoping for a happy life with her. It was the one moment where I drew into my head to live fantasies of a successful marriage with her.
I was delusioning myself thinking I could have a happily ever after with the woman I love. But born into such a family, my fate seems already predestined.
Still, I wanted to work things out somehow.
When I was hit with the news, I can't say I wasn't hurt or that I didn't panic. Decisions aren't made based on our happiness in this house, no. It's all business and benefits.
It always has.
In order to protect Willa, I couldn't blatantly refuse this decision that brought me no good or joy.
Should I have refused because of my love for Willa, the selfish-mongers in my family will end her for good. I know that no matter how much I try to protect her, they will someday, get to her.
And I couldn't bear to lose her.
So to prevent that, I had to use another way.
