Chapter 17 - Soon To Be Daughter Inlaw

All attempt by Bryan to get Sonia to leave the room, was met with equal resistance. It was very clear to Bryan that Sonia had no intention whatsoever of leaving him alone and she had every intention of spending the nigh with him.

"Why are you doing this?" Bryan asked when she walked out of the bathroom dressed now in his polo shirt, and one of his boxer pants which he hadn't give to her.

"Because I can, and because I want to." She said with a sweet smile. "Shouldn't we get the room service to serve us something? I'm really famished right now, and I need to eat before going to bed." Sonia said with a yawn as she sat on the couch and placed one leg over the other on the center table as though she owned the place.

"You can call them and ask them to serve you whatever you want to eat. I'm going to bed." Bryan said before heading for the bedroom. He needed to rest his head and come up with a plan on how to escape from this lunatic who had just invaded his world.

He briefly considered drugging her and running off in the morning before she wakes up from sleep. But quickly shook his head to discard the thought. He knew without doubt that Sonia could do a lot of damage to his image if he so much as did something like that to her, especially since the public was aware that he had approached her and not the other way around. Thus he had to end whatever was between them in an amicable way.

As soon as he lay on his bed his phone started ringing and he sighed when he realized the call was from his mother. He didn't need anyone to tell him his parents had probably seen the news since they never failed to check the gossip columns for news about him... Or perhaps Tom had informed her already.

"Congratulations my dearest son! I'm so proud of you." His mother gushed happily the moment he accepted her call making him wince.

"So who is she? When am I meeting her? When are you getting married?" She went on and on.

"Her name is Sonia Smith." He told his mother quietly as he massaged his temple. How on earth was he going to get out of this stupid web he had spun on his own?

'"Awww! I love her already. Can I speak with her? She is there with you, right?" His mother asked eagerly.

"No, she is fast asle..."

"Baby, the food is here, would you like to join me?" Sonia called from the doorway of the bedroom.

"Hand her the phone, I want to speak with my daughter in-law to be." His mother said excitedly making Bryan sigh as he tried not to glare at Sonia for being so loud.

"Here. My mother wants to speak with you." He said as he held out the phone for Sonia who hurriedly went to his side to take the phone from him.

"Hello ma'am!" Sonia greeted politely.

"Hello my dear! Congratulations on your engagement! I'm so excited, and I can't wait to meet you in person." Bryan's mother said, and Sonia could picture the broad smile on the lady's face.

"I can't wait to meet you either. I've heard so many beautiful things about you from Bryan and I've been dying to speak with the beautiful woman that raised such a perfect son." Sonia said making her giggle happily.

"You're so well mannered. I hope we meet soon my dear. Please hand the phone back to him." She said, and waited until she heard Bryan's, "Mom?"

"Yeah, she's a really nice girl. I called earlier to find out when you would be available for a little family get together. We could all stay at your brother's house for a week." She suggested.

"Sure. I'll get back to you on that tomorrow. How is dad?" Bryan asked while Sonia catwalked around the room as she waited for him to finish with his phone call.

"He is smoking outside. He misses you all even though he won't say anything. So just make yourself available, okay? I'd love you all to surprise him with your presence on his birthday. He would really love that." She said, reminding Bryan that his father's birthday was in two weeks.

"Oh! Sure. I'll just have to make it work then. Have you spoken with Tom and Jade yet? Did they agree to it?" He asked curiously.

"Yes they did. So work it out, and make sure to bring my soon to be daughter in-law along with you, okay?"

"Yes mom. Have a good night's rest. I love you."

"I love you more dearie." She said before hanging up.

"Your mom is so sweet." Sonia said with a small smile as she stopped walking around the room, and turned to face him, "You're sure you don't want to eat?"

"Yeah. Thanks." Bryan said disinterestedly as he remained on the bed looking up the ceiling while Sonia returned to the living room.

He quickly pretended to have dozed off when he heard her returning to the bedroom, but she ignored him as she carried the food and sat on the middle of the bed, "I know you're awake, so sit up, and I'll tell you what I want us to do." Sonia said, but Bryan ignored her.

Sonia threw one of the chips at him, and then threw three more when he failed to respond, "I guess you don't want me to leave any..." Before she could finish what he was saying he quickly sat up and looked at her.

"I knew that would get me your attention." She said with a bright smile.

"You know, I've always wondered what it would be like to spend a night with a celebrity, so now that I got the chance I don't want to waste it." Sonia said between mouthful making him look at her with a mixture of both irritation and curiosity.

"So what do you want to do?"
