Ronnie's POV
Why must it be always me who has to have the worst of luck in this life?? Why is mother always making life a living hell for me?? Is it because I am not her real daughter or because my dad is no more?? Of all the things to happen to me, why marriage? Not even with a good man but with a monster feared in all the land? I thought to myself as I sit on the porch thinking about why life would be unfair to me even though am just 20. Thoughts were suddenly interrupted when Diana, my step sister screamed my name.
"Ronnie, where the f**k is this girl? Ronnie" she yelled
"Am here" I yelled back
I went to meet her and what i received on reaching her was a thunderous slap across the face which stung more than a bee sting. I looked at her as tears rolled down my face. "Mia, why did you do that" I said in pain.
"I have been screaming your name for two hours now, where the hell did you hide your add" shae thundered
"Mia, I was doing the laundry your mom told me to wash. I wanted to finish up so I can go do the other chores before nightfall" I replied
She looked at me as if I was trash "Well good luck on your marriage with Damon, I hope you live a nice comfortable life while bringing some of his wealth to the family"she said sarcastically. "Oh and while you are doing the laundry, go to my room and clean it up" she added
I looked at her hatefully as she walks out the door. Why does she always has to be a pain in the ass? I went back to continue what I was doing when I received a phone call from Katie, my best friend. I swiped to answer the phone.
"Hey girlfriend, what's good?" I said cheerfully
"Ron, you and I know there's nothing good. How can that witch set you up with Damon" she said fuming
"Come on, you know am helpless" I sighed and smiled dejectedly
"You are a witch darling, you have super powers, why are you letting them treat you like a piece of trash??" She said
I fiddled with my fingers while twirling them. "You know I can't use my powers now, it has not yet been activated. And besides I need constant practices to even get one spell right. I don't want to cast a spell for invincibility and end up turning into a frog. Now that'll be messed up" I said smiling
"I know right, so what's your plan for the marriage? You aren't gonna marry that psycho who literally kicked me out of his office because I asked for a salary increase. He's terrible I tell you, very terrible" she said
At that very moment, Mia voice rang through the hallway." Do you need all the time in the world to finish up and clean my room??"she said.
Oh how I hated her, but I still yelled "just a sec" to her. I leaned back to my phone to continue my conversation with Katie who was still patiently waiting for me.
"Why do you allow Mia boss you around? You're two years older then her and yet she treats you like a piece of rag" she complained
"Come on, I don't mind. And besides, I don't want step mom barging into my room and screaming my name like a lost hound dog" I giggled.
"Enough out the chit chat. You want to go through with the wedding??" She sounded serious
"What do you suggest I do bacause I don't think I have a choice in this situation" I sighed
There was silence on. The other line which lasted for at least 30 seconds and Katie always have something off her sleeve when she's quiet on the other end. I knew what she was gonna say and that's exactly what I heard.
"Don't worry baby girl, I do have a plan" she said
