The Arranged Bride

Sophia's POV

" Sophia , I don't think this is right."

" Char, not again. " I whined. Since the time I told her that I was moving back, she was trying to convince me otherwise. She dislikes Nick a lot since the first time I told her what he had done and his recent outburst had fetched him a higher position in her bad book. Ryan too isn't fond of him but doesn't express it too much.

" I am not sure about it." Char folded her arms across her chest . She was looking genuinely upset.

" But I am. I told you why he behaved like that at the hospital. He wasn't thinking. Besides , I hurt him as well . " I tried reasoning. Whenever I remember, what I had told him , I can't help but feel guilty.

" But what about the things he did before?"

" Char , seriously ? That was in the past. I told you ,he had his reasons and he had apologized for that. " I had given her a brief about Clara and Nick's past.

" I don't know, he always finds a reason to hurt you. " She threw her hands up in the air in exasperation . I rarely see her serious side which didn't sit well with me. I knew she was extremely concerned about me. I sighed and walked up to her.

" His intentions are not bad. Don't worry your small head too much." I joked , earning a slap on my arm. I hugged her and we remained like that for a few minutes.

" Soph , Nick is here." Ryan called out. From his tone , it was clear that he wasn't ecstatic to meet Nick.

" Yeah , coming." I replied. I took the small bag with the essentials that I had brought along. I came out to see Nick standing in front of his car.

" Take care and if he misbehaves , just give me a call. I will gladly kick his ass." Char said while glaring at Nick. I chuckled at how uncomfortable Nick looked.
