"I am not the issue here, Sheen did Ford call you?"Mica said.

"He didn't even texted me I guess they had something important that they need to settle."

"Well, let them be but do you think they do that the arrange married?"Zeya said.

"NO!!!"Lance said and they all got shocked.

Dumbfounded "Ah...eh were still young right why did they agree to that if they not in love to each other."He said.

"Ha...ha...ha..He is right if you love someone show it."Sheen said and he whisper to Lance "Bro, relax watch you behaviour." and he smile like idiot.

The teacher is heading in and she said "Morning Class, the Lee siblings and their cousin is absent today they have something to do important lets go and proceed to our lesson."

"Wait ma'am how about Sophie?"Rein said.

"Ah...she is at the dean's office for some papers that need Lu family member signature about the Academy."

"Bro, your safe Sophie is not with Carl."Sheen whispers and Lance smile and look away he thought

What can I do? How can I confess to Sophie that I love her if she needs to marry Carl? I thought our distance is getting near but now I think were not meant to be.

Next day,

"Morning guys "Dei and Ford said Carl is at the back.

"Morning Lee's why the three of you are absent yesterday?"Rein said.

"Ah...we not intended to do that but something came up."Ford said.

"Something like what?" Rein said.

"Family matter." Carl said.

"Yeah...don' bother..."Dei said.

"Okay?!"They said

"Wait, where is Sophie?"Carl said.

"Why did you looking for her?"Lance said

"It doesn't matter to you so don't bother man."

Lance approaches him and he said "Well then find her because this is not lost and found. Smirk..."

"You!"Carl said at angry tone.

"Okay that's enough you two."Ford said and he separates them.

Sophie came in and she said "Hi guys did you missed me?" and Lance walk away and she said "What happen?"

Dei approached her "Ha...ha...don't worry about him."She said.

"Yeah...and we missed you dear."Mica said and the girls hugged her.

"Ahm...girls can I barrow Sophie for a bit?"Carl said.

"Okay please handle with care."Zeya said and Carl nods.

"What did you want to say?"Sophie said.

"Come with me."Carl said and they go outside to talk and they go to the cafeteria.

"The class is about to start."

"Okay...Okay...have a sit first do you want something?"

"No, just spill the beans double time."

"Fine...I need to marry you."

Sophie stands up abruptly and she shouts "WHAT??"And she got the attentions of the people inside the cafeteria.

"Geez...calm down first and sit."

"How can I calm down you want to marry me are you out of your mind?"She said at high pitched

"Shhh...Lower your voice what if they misunderstood you?"

"Okay...okay...so what on earth are you saying to me?"

"The thing is our parents arranged our marriage for the business connection."

"What? Are they insane? This is against our will how can they do that to us? Were still young and we dont love each other."She said in angry tone

He whispers "Because you loved someone."

"What? You were saying?"

"It's not that I don't like you nor love you but were friends and were like siblings."

"Ouch...don't put salt in my wounded heart."

"Why? Do you like me more than that?"

"Hahaha...of course not I loved you as a friend..."He hugs Sophie and Lance saw them while he is heading in the cafeteria and he runaway after seeing them.

Sophie pushes Carl away and she said "Okay...that's enough I don't like everyone misunderstand us so go away back to your seat."

"Heh...me too either..."Carl said and he back to his chair.

"So, what's the plan?"

"Actually, It's depends on you."

"Why?"

"Because before I talk to you I talked to my dad that I wouldn't do that but he keeps torturing me."

"What did uncle do to you?"

"Nothing but he cut my bank account because he knows that I will go abroad to my mom."

"What? You want to go abroad?"

"Yeah...I want to be with my mom and start new life there but even airlines he banned me."

"What the heck? How can I help?"

"It's easy just tell your parents that you don't like me because I'm a gay."

"What??? Do you even know what are you doing?"

"Yeah...the twins knows about these actually were absent yesterday too if you didn't know and we made a plan after going to the mall."

"Wow...at this time? Do you have a time enjoying yourself at the mall?"

"Hahaha...yeah...they treat me for the farewell for me but suddenly our nanny in the house is the spy of my dad she heard about the abroad thing from us."

"Oh..I see but wait how can I tell to my parents about that they know you since were a kid I'm afraid that they don't believe me."

"Chill, we have a plan so just leave it to me."

"Okay?"

At the same time at the classroom,

"Gasp...Gasp..."Lance heading in the classroom.

"Did you run?"Ford said.

"Yeah...Gasp...for exercise...Gasp.."

"Are you naive? Exercised in school uniform?"Dei said.

"Because he is at the school so that's the proper way of outfit."Rein said.

Mica hits him and she said "Idiot you're not funny."She said.

"Ouch...your always hitting me...boohoo...Ford looks Mica."

"Heh! Just shut your mouth and sit."Ford said and Mica said "Bleeh..."

"Anyways, guys we have something to tell you."Ford said.

"What is it?"Zeya said and they all sitting down.

"Actually, our reason that's why was absent yesterday because of Carl and Sophie's arranged marriage."

"Like what we thought."Mica said.

"So, guys you know about this?"Dei said.

"Yes...Mica told us."Sheen said.

"Unfortunately, I accidentally heard the conversations of my parents and their colleagues about that."

"Oh is that so?"Rein said.

"What do you think of me gossipers?"

"Cut it out guys...Listen we need to help them as you can see they're still young."Ford said.

"What help?"Rein said.
