Hi, my name is Olívia, I'm 16 and I'm a rich and unhappy girl. Here's my story.
This is Tom, our servant, he's a very poor widower. His wife died in his son birth, Ben.
When I turned 15, my parents started trying to get a boyfriend for me. OMG. I can get my own boyfiends for god's sake. The difference is: they wanted me to marry a rich boy.
One day I had a fight with my mother. She said I'm almost 17 and I'm not "even engaged". I told her I won't be engaged if I don't love the person. I was really upset, I went to the garden and Ben was there. He saw me crying and really upset and asked me what had happened. I unburdened with him.
I was so mad at my mom that I made her look like a monster. He listened to everything I had to say, hugged me and said "everything is going to be okay". It was everything I wanted and needed to hear. After that day, we got closer and talked each day more. When I least expected it, I was in love.
I got engaged, my dad promised me to marry this guy. My God! I didn't even know him and my parents wanted me to marry him. What I had with Ben is over. And I was more unhappy than ever, Ben made me happy, with him I could be who I really am. But with my fiance, Anthony, I don't feel like this.
