Story : The Engagement Affair ( 18 + ) {Season 1}

Episode 5
Emelia stepped out of the train and onto the platform. All through the journey she had sulked. Why should she care about someone she didn’t even KNOW? Not to talk of even marrying him? Their damn tradition could go to blazes for all she cared. She had decided long ago she wasn’t going to go along with it.

“Oh really? If he’s such a nice kid why not keep him for yourself? You’re the one who needs a man in her life right now, don’t you?”
Sofia disregarded the insult. She focused on the road ahead of her
