"STUPID!" I blinked at what he said and I could see his irritable face.

"I told you not to mess with my stuff, didn't I?!! You're a really stupid woman!! You're stupid!"

Tears welled up in my eyes.

"What are you crying for huh?!! I'm not even hurting you, you're such a dramatic--"

"There's something that got into my eyes! If you're in my situation, aren't you going to shed tears!!? And also you told me that over and over again, last night you called me stupid multiple times! My ears are hurting listening to your rant."

"And besides, you're the artful one! I only used your socks for a while, you selfish! Why did someone throw my socks in the trash huh?"

"It was freaking smelly that's why I threw it!" He sounds irritated said.

I came near him and grabbed him by the collar. "What! What did you say smelly?! Are you saying my feet stink?!" He was a little surprised.

That's his reason? What the heck?? What the hell does he care if it's smelly, he doesn't have any right to throw my socks because that's my stuff!

"You said that, not me."

He suddenly grabbed my cheek and blew my left eye. "What is your problem!" I yelled at him.

I rubbed my eye to the left and blinked a second time, I think the little thing that got in my eye is gone now.

"You went to bed, didn't you?" He said philosophically before turning away from me.

What's that? Should I be thankful?

I quickly grabbed the sock I was wearing and threw it at him, it hit his back.

"Pick up your stinky socks! Stinky!!" He seriously turned to me and picked up his socks before finally climbing the stairs and heading to his room.

"That skinny guy!" I just sighed and tried to calm myself down. I sat down again and continued eating.

I cooked a lot and he won't eat it! Tsk, I'll take care of it all! But maybe that fool is hungry and just shy? Is he? Looks like it's not!

Argh! It's tiring to live with that kind of person!

I just stood up and went to his room. I opened your door and..."What the f**k! I'm getting dressed!" I blinked when I saw him wearing only boxer shorts.

"Okay." I just said and closed the door. I just leaned against his door and crossed my arms.

"Gosh, does he think he has a beautiful body, tsk! What a joke!" I was exhausted.

I was surprised when the door suddenly opened and didn't expect that I got leaned against his chest. "I can hear you." And pushed me hard at the same time. 

I almost fell because of that.

He's really rude! When is he going to change?!

"Congratulations, you're not deaf. Eat now! I made an effort to cook--" I didn't finish what I was going to say when he just passed me.

"Nice talking huh!" I just laughed and followed him.

I thought he wouldn't eat!

"Why are you staring at me?" He asked me coldly while taking a bite of food.

"You want a divorce?" I asked, I was a little surprised when he hit the table and stood up.

"Are you kidding me?! I should be the one to ask you that--"

"And why? Can't I? Why are you the only one who doesn't want us to get married and live together in this house?!"

"No! no divorce will happen! And not because I want to be your wife for the next few years or to be with you forever, do you understand?! We're just doing this because of our parents! After all, we've only been married for two months and that's what's on your mind right away!" He looked at me intently.

"Tsk, you act like a boss all the time and when it comes to your parents you're like a loyal dog who obeys them," I said while drinking some water.

"I'm ashamed of you! Do you think we would be like this today if you didn't obey your parents as well!!"

"Whatever!" I stood up and turned away from him.

"Where are you going, you woman! Wash the dishes!!" It screamed.

I haven't gotten far yet, do you really need to raise your voice?! I'm not deaf!

"Wash that on your own! You have hands, don't you!" I finally went to my room.

I lay down on the bed and took my phone. I saw that man messaged me.

He's just downstairs, does he really needs to message me? I clicked on that and I saw that he sent a picture of the food that was left and other dishes that needed to be washed, I was a little surprised by the last picture that he sent, it was his face looking seriously at the camera as if he was looking at me.

From David: Wash the dishes!!

From David: If you are not going to come here right now! I'm going there in your f**king room and drag you out!

"So, should I be scared?" I asked myself. I looked at the time and it was almost 10 pm. I put my phone on the side and straightened up.

I was about to close my eyes when the door to my room opened loudly.

"Wash those dishes now, I'm not a maid to order me around Claire!" I got up and looked at him evilly.

"Wow! So, do you think I'm a maid ordering me around like that?? Shame on you Mr. Buenavista!"

"Stop calling me Mr. Buenavista!" It seems that he will explode in anger in a few minutes.

"What do you want me to call you?! Hubby? My love? Sweetie pie? Babe? That's disgusting--ouchh! Let go of my hand!!" He suddenly pulled my hand.

"I said I don't want to! I'm sleepy!! A-Alright tomorrow, I promise I'll wash it off! Wait, I already said I'll wash it tomorrow!!" I said but he still grab my hand.

He let go of my hand when we reached the table and didn't say anything, he just left me here alone.

Our helpers and guards here are on vacation so I'll do the housework for now! But the next day they will come back, I suggest that they go on vacation to Boracay and said it's on me but the truth is that David will pay. And yeah, I didn't think that I would do the housework if they weren't here.

"That guy is really annoying!"

I washed all the dishes and went to my room. I was about to open the door of my room but I noticed the door of his room right next to mine. Because of annoyance, I kicked it before entering my room.

I was about to go to bed but I heard someone kicking at my bedroom door.

Why! He even imitated me! I wanted to go out and ask him to fight with me but because I'm sleepy already so I lay down and slept.

I woke up with someone shaking my shoulder. I blinked several times because the surroundings were dark. I was a little surprised when there were hands on my shoulders.

"Is that you David?" I caressed his face.

"Yes, it's me! Stop fiddling with your hand and you might touch someone else."

"What are you doing in my room? Why did you turn off your light!? It's so dark I can't see anything!" I asked him irritatedly.

"No electricity!" I think I will be deafened by his screams.

"What's that? Your rich and only electricity, you still have nothing to pay for!"

"There's just a problem..." he stopped speaking and I don't know why.

"Hey! Why did you stop talking?" I ask.

A few minutes passed and I didn't hear a word from him. Suddenly the light came back on and I was surprised to see Xander laying on the bed with his eyes closed.

"Did he fall asleep?"
