IT was past seven in the evening when I got home. I laid my tired body on the bed. I haven't eaten dinner yet because I have no appetite. Kier and I will have our engagement party in a few days.

I got up when I heard a knock on the door outside my room.

"Dad?" My father was the one I saw when I opened the door.

"Luisa," my father turned to the maid. It was only then that I noticed her standing behind my dad. "Put those in your Ma'am's room."

"What are those for?" I asked curiously. I saw two boxes in our maid's hand.

"Where have you been?" instead that’s what my dad said.

"Why? Must I report everything to you?" I replied nonchalantly.

"Don’t go too far, Fatima. I might not be able to control myself," he roared, obviously controlling his anger. "I'm warning you."

I looked away. "Can't you see, I'm in an office uniform?"

"I'm not blind," he replied angrily. "Why did you come home late?"

"I worked overtime at my job, Dad."

His father took a deep breath. "I don’t want to find ou

  • I Hate You, But I Love You   Chapter 27

    I know that my father would be very angry with me for the plan I had in mind, but I would rather do that than marry Kier. I took a deep breath before picking up my cell phone and dialing a number."Hello? Is everything okay, Kim?" I ask."Yes. My cousin will take you to Baguio. Just be careful, Fatima," Kim said."Thank you for the help, Kim. I can really count on you in times of need.""I really don't like the idea you came up with." I heard her sigh on the other line.I sigh. "I will call you later, bye."Last night, I called my best friend and asked for help. There is only one solution I know for not continuing the marriage; the bride has to disappear.I impishly grinned.I got up from the hanging chair I was sitting in. I peeked at my bedroom door before finally going out and coming down."Good morning, Dad," I greeted my father. He was watching television in the living room."Good morning. Have you made a choice yet?" he said in a formal voice. "Have a seat."I resisted the urg

    "YOU Know, it's your fault. I told you, just pick from one of your girls so we don't have any problems," I blamed Kier."Then what, my father will disown me?""Coward," I taunted.He folded his arms and looked at me. "Why don't you just find a man to introduce them as your lover?"I was stunned. Suddenly Drix came to my mind–Ma’am Cora’s younger brother and also my friend Kim’s cousin.Drix is ​​gay, but when he acts he looks like a real man. I also considered him a friend. But I thought that he might betray me when he saw Kier. He was attracted to handsome men! But I don't know any other man, who can be asked to pretend to be my lover.Hmm… Drix can do it! Nodding I said in my mind. I smiled."Why are you smiling?" he asked stubbornly."You know, you’re right. Why didn’t I think of that? I guess I should call Drix." I was glad. I walked closer to the bed. "Wait, where's my bag?""Our fathers are not stupid to forget to take our cellphones.""What?" Annoyed, I stomped on the floor. "W

    THEY were startled when they suddenly heard a telephone ring. Surprisingly they looked at each other. They never noticed a phone inside the room."Where does that sound come from?" Kier asked.I shrugged. "Let's just find it," I suggested.We stood up and headed to the cabinet near the bed. That’s where the sound comes from. Kier opened it and we saw a black wireless phone."Hello?" Kier answered.I quickly approached him. I pressed my ear to the phone he was holding. I tried to ignore his teasing look. We were in an intimate position. And he seemed to find it amusing. I showed him my fist when I saw his mischievous smile on his lips.He laughed as he moved closer so I could get closer to the phone–I almost kissed the phone."How was your sleep?"Kier and I looked at each other when we heard that familiar voice. My father is on the other line."Give me the phone!" But I had already snatched it from Kier's hand.As I did, we switched positions. He was now listening to the phone I was ho

    "WOW!" Kier wipes his mouth and looks at me. He took the glass filled with water and drank it. "When did you learn to cook?""I just followed the instructions in the cookbook," I replied. I am very hungry. This is my third plate of rice. "Do you want more rice?"He shook his head. "I'm full. I certainly won't be hungry when you become my wife.""There's no charge for illusion," I whispered. I didn’t pay attention to what he said. I saw Kier open his mouth so I pointed the fork in his face. "Let me finish eating first before you speak and I might lose my appetite."He listened and kept his mouth shut. But while I was eating, he was watching. I just didn't look at him anymore. I ignored him even though I almost choked because I couldn't chew the food in my mouth properly.*****WHEN I woke up I felt very thirsty. I groaned. Why do I feel so hot? I feel like I'm getting burned. Moaning, I opened my eyes. I was stunned to notice that the surroundings were dark.I remember falling asleep

    I force my sanity to prevail over the burning desire between us. What’s that kiss for? Kier doesn't love me. He will never love me, because, from the beginning, I knew that he only considered me a childhood friend who wanted to make me angry.Think about it, Fatima! It is now or never. If I give in to temptation now, I will be the loser in the end. So I suddenly pushed him away from me."F-Fatima..." He threw me a curious look."Please…" I whispered and looked down. I don’t want to meet his gleamed eyes.I swallowed when he touched my chin and lifted my face. He stared at me for a moment. He hesitantly stood up and walked toward the large window. He looked at the moon. I heard his heavy sigh.I bowed my head and remained silent. Only the crickets outside could be heard in the room where we were. My heart felt a strange emptiness. Why do I often feel that way?Am I falling in love with him?I shook. That is impossible to happen. Now that Kier has kissed me, I don't think I can face him

    Deep breath… I tried hard to control my temper. I heaved a sigh and then moved away again. But he moved closer to me again. I shot him a threatening look. "What's your problem, huh?"He shrugged. "Why are you staying away from me?""Why are you approaching me?""Because you're moving away.""Are you trying to annoy me?""That's what you always think.""Why am I wasting my time with you?" I turned my back on him. I was disgusted because last night I was dramatizing while thinking I was falling for him.How was I able to love my number one enemy who was born to make my blood boil every minute?"Do you feel anything for me, Fatima?" he asked bluntly and pulled my hand."Let me go!" Annoyed, I pulled my hand away."Answer my question.""Are you ordering me?""No. I just want to know.""Nothing." I stammered and averted my eyes. Of course, I won't admit it."Nothing?" He didn't seem to believe what I said. "But I have a feeling–""That I like you?" I added to what he would have said. I laug

    “I’m not Superhero to be able to push this car back to the mansion. The rain is heavy. You better take off your clothes too, even just your pants. Don’t worry, I think there is no one else here except us. It is probably the private property of the Santillan family.”"I- I beg your pardon?"“You heard me right, wifey! Take your pants off. ”My eyes narrowed staring into his eyes and I didn't even move in the seat.“If you don't come down to help me, I'll lift you out of the car! I can’t let you there while I’m pushing this damned car!”“Carry me? I dare you! Try it and–” I hadn’t finished what I was about to say when Kier got out of the car and opened the driver’s seat side door. I stared at him wickedly when he attempted to pull down my pants.“For the last time, are you going to take your pants off or not? The floodwaters were up to my knees. No one else can see you.”“I most certainly am not!”“Fine," he said, then picked me up and walked to the back of the car.I swallowed thickly

    I can't count how many times I sigh. I look back and forth between the wireless phone and the tv screen.I closed my eyes tightly as if I could mentally talk to my father. Annoyed, I stood up. I went to the laundry area and washed our dirty clothes in the washing machine. It has a dryer so it dries quickly even if it rains outside."Haist…" I shook my head as I poured the powder detergent into the washing machine.I got out of the laundry area. I went back to the living room and was annoyed that I picked up the wireless phone. Suddenly it rang. I screamed in shock and threw it on the carpeted floor. I also picked it up quickly."Hello?" Hoping that my dad was on the other line."Fatima.""Dad!" I was glad to hear my father's voice. “Please, pick us up. I don't like it here. I don't even know which continent of the Philippines you took us to. If we are still in Manila, abroad, or what.""Hey, slow down. How are you two?"I was silent for a moment. How are the two of us?"No–" I stared a

    "I've been three years away from you but I can't forget you. You're deeply etched here in my heart. That's why when my parents opened up again that they wanted me to marry you, I agreed. I said to myself before heading back here, I will make sure that this time, you'll fall for me no matter what. And thank God! I finally succeeded! You can't escape my charm!""Charm my foot!" I pretended to be annoyed. "Did you hear me say I love you?"He was stunned. He seemed to think. Of course, my heart is to the rescue. "I hate you!" I said and hugged my husband tightly."You hate me?""Yes.""Why is that?" Kier asked in a confused tone of voice."Because I've been waiting for a long time for you to tell me that you love me. Then now, you confessed your love for me while you were naked!""Love me, Fatima. I never stopped loving you. Tell me you love me too.""I think you used a potion on me." I caressed his face. The happiness I feel is unparalleled. "I love you, Mutant. I love you, Kier. I

    Kier stood up and handed me a brown envelope. "You're my wife... legally." With trembling hands, I opened it. I gasped when I read what was written in the document. Our marriage certificate! "This isn't true. You said our marriage was fake?" My blood boiled. Did he trick me? Just to please our parents? I held my chest. "They knew about our plan. They tricked us." "Does this mean we're really married?" "Yes." "L-let's get a divorce." I approached him and held his hand. "I know I'm just a burden to you. I know you don't want to be tied to me, either. So please, give me back my freedom." "I can't..." "W-what?" Frowning, I looked up to see his face. "Didn't I say, I won't leave you even if you ask me to? I even said that here at the Santillan Mansion. A promise is a promise. The promise should not be broken, wifey." I blinked. I think I got dizzy from what he said. I just woke up. Who wouldn't be surprised when you wake up with the man you've been thinking about for days? "Do

    It's been a week since I left Kier's house. From the subdivision, I took a taxi and asked the driver to take me to Tagaytay. I checked in at the newly opened hotel and restaurant in Tagaytay. While I was there I was thinking of leaving the Philippines to visit my brother in America. "Thank you," I said smiling at the woman who delivered my order to the table I occupied. I stirred my coffee and smelled its aroma. I tasted a slice of strawberry cake. Delicious! But I smiled bitterly. Earlier, I called my mother on the phone. I explained everything to her. I said don't look for me. I'm not ready to go home yet. I wasn't sure of anything anymore. I just want to get away. After drinking coffee I decided to leave Starbucks. I still feel the sadness inside me. All I want to hear from Kier is that he loves me. It's sad. But I will try to be happy. But it's impossible because Kier destroyed my ability to be happy. He is my happiness. I didn't have any trouble getting a taxi. When t

    There wasn’t a moment of hesitation. His mouth was on mine, and I stopped breathing. He shuddered and there was a sound from the back of his throat, half growl, half moan. Little shivers of pleasure and panic shot through me as he deepened the kiss, parting my lips. I stopped thinking.The rush of sensations crawling across my body was maddening. Scary. Thrilling. His hands were moving down, under my shirt, his fingers skimming over my skin, sending a rush of blood to every part of my body."You can still say no..." he whispered, dropping small kisses along my face.I wanted to say no. I'm afraid to give in to what he's doing. But I couldn't disobey what my heart was whispering. I loved him. And I wanted to feel his love at least tonight.I might be a fool to think that way.Stupid as it is, I wanted to take the risk. I caressed his cheek and kissed him sweetly.His lips slid down my neck. And my hands went down. I ran my fingers down his chest, His stomach was hard, dipped, and rippl

    Kier looked at his father with a smile on his face. "Dad, Fatima loves me." "My daughter, she used to talk about you when she was just a teenager. She would tell me how she hated you. But I know that it was the only way she could deal with her feelings. I always see her sneaking glances at you when you talk to Tristan, my son. When I tell her that her older brother is better at basketball, she gets annoyed. She said Tristan is my son. So I don't see that you are better at basketball than him. I know that she secretly admires you even when you were teenagers." "That's mainly the reason why we wanted you to get married. We saw you love each other. You can't admit your feelings for each other, so we made a way. When I accidentally saw Fatima's picture under your pillow before you flew to America, I talked to Carlo. I no longer had doubts that you love her," said Rodrigo and patted his son on the shoulder. "Y-you saw it?" Kier asked his father. It was his biggest secret. He kept a pict

    "There's no reason for Kier to know about my feelings for him.""Why?" Kim let go of my embrace."He loves someone else, Kim."She caressed my back sadly. "Tell me the truth, you were just pretending to argue with Kier in the kitchen, am I right?"I nodded. "From our marriage, and our divorce plan, it's all just a pretense. Our marriage is fake.""What?" With wide eyes, Kim covered her mouth. "You mean–""Our marriage is not legal. We are not a real couple," I added to what she would have said. "Kier paid the lawyer who blessed our marriage.""Oh, God! Why did you agree?""Because I love him. Even though I know it's all just a pretense. I thought he loved me too.""Many people die because of delusions. Has anything happened to both of you? I mean, have you given him your virginity yet?""No!" I answered quickly. "We kissed.""When your father learns the truth about your marriage, he will definitely be angry.""I know. Before we decided to get married, we had already planned our divorce

    "Wifey, our parents will come here later."I was stunned. We are currently in the living room."Is that so?" I faced him. I stood up and went to the window."Don't worry." He followed her.How could I not worry? He said that our parents will visit us and it only reminds me that we will soon be separated. But that's what I wanted to say to Kier, I just couldn't say it. My heart suddenly hurt because of what I thought. I cleared my throat."Are we going to let them know about the divorce we are planning?"He fell silent for a moment. I heard his heavy sigh."Is that what you want?"I blinked to stop the tears from forming in my eyes. I bit my lower lip and wrapped my arms around my body. I suddenly felt cold. Is that what I want? For my heart's safety, I silently nodded."Okay. We'll do it.”After a while, I heard his footsteps away from me. He left the house and I don't know where he was going. I couldn't stop myself from crying.It hurts to accept that our marriage is not real. Tha

    I tried to push Kier away from me, but my strength was wasted, he hugged me tightly. I didn't expect what he did next, he bent his head and kissed me hard, muffling my cry.His warm kiss was enough to get rid of the coldness I was feeling. I want to hate him but no matter what happens, I can't stop myself from loving him.When our lips parted, Kier bent down and picked me up. "Let's go inside the house. You're going to get sick from what you're doing. I was very worried when I talked to Teresa. She said she never saw you leave the house and you weren't in the bedroom either."I rested my head on his chest. I was physically and emotionally exhausted.We entered the house. We used the stairs in the kitchen to go up to the balcony on the second floor. And then he took me to the bathroom, made me stand there, and fixed the bathtub. He felt the water and added bubble salt. Then he faced me and removed my wet clothes one by one."W-what are you doing?" I hugged myself."Modesty's not appro

    "We don't have a relationship.""Really?" I said sarcastically. "Why does she call you darling?""Come on, don't you trust me?" I didn't answer. "Are you jealous of Savannah?""Of course not," I answered quickly. I noticed the pain on Kier's face. "I am your wife and we are newly married. What if our marriage became real? Would you treat me like this in front of many people as your wife? You're going to flirt with another girl even though I'm with you?""Why did our conversation turn to me?""Because you started it," I said. Annoyed, I turned my back on him. I went to the closet and got some clothes to wear. I heard Kier call my name, but I answered him with a loud slam of the door.I don't know how I fell asleep next to Kier, but I did sleep. Somewhere in the night, I woke up when I heard the door creak. Sleepily, I turned to the other side of the bed. Kier wasn't there but I could see the bathroom light was on. I went back to sleep.WHEN I woke up, Kier was no longer by my side. I w
