Chapter 7

(He married me

                   

                 But loves me not)

Eva

Fred's penthouse....

Sometime around midnight...

I jerk up from the bed when I feel something heavy, or I'd say someone, fall on me.

"Ouch!" I hear a female voice exclaims in pain.

A female? I didn't see any female when I came in this evening. Just then the lights flicked on and I'm met with a very angry Fred, I try my possible best to avoid his angry gaze.

I take a peek at the woman next to him. She put gorgeous to shame, her proclean skin glittering, her small pink lips pouts as she rubs her back.

Who is she?

Then I remembered Fred told me before going out, that he'll come with his girlfriend later. I guess this is her. Well, now I know why Fred can't pay attention to someone like me, compare to this goddess I'm a disgrace to women all over the world.

Someone snap their fingers in front of my eyes and I quickly come back to reality.

"What are you doing here?!" Fred's angry voice boom.

Huh? What does he mean?

"I should be asking you that. What. Are. You. Doing. In. My. Room?!" I asked measuring shoulders with him.

It's so late in the night, he should be in his room.

He laughs sarcastically and scoffed.

"Really? Your room?" I nod.

Then he holds my chin in his tight grip. I winced in pain and frown as I struggle to get away from him.

"Are you deaf, ugly?"

I hit his hand so he can let go,but this beast didn't, his hold gets tighter.

"I said count two rooms, the third is yours. THE THIRD IS YOURS!!" he screams the last part in my ears, then he pushes me away and I fall down.

I gently rub on my chin to numb the pain. I get up from the ground and match my glare with his, Jerk!

He could have told me nicely and I'll leave without putting up a fight.

The woman quickly clung onto Fred's arm.

"Darling! Who's this bitch? She almost broke my back" she whined.

Oh! So it was her back that hits my head when I was having a sweet sleep. 

"She's not someone important"

I gasp quietly.

"Not someone important?" I walked round them as if I have a sinister plan in mind.

I see the woman watching me cautiously and I feel kinda good. I step closer to Fred and tiptoe to his ear.

"Well, I'm not someone important" I said in his ear. Then I turned back to the woman with a sweet smile. "I'm his world" I wink at her.

"What?" She turns to Fred with a frown. "Did you hear her?".

Before Fred could say anything, I quickly interupts him.

"I'm his fiancée, you'll only have him for one night. But I'll have him forever" I said.

Fred look at me in disbelief. Well, I am surprised at myself too, from where did I get this so much courage. And besides, Fred doesn't admit I'm his fiancée so why am I claiming him?

I'm so stupid.... Well, I can't back down now, I just pray Fred doesn't loose his cool.

"Now you tell me if I'm someone important to him or not?" I told the woman.

"Darling, she... What is she talking about?"

Fred glared daggers at me, if looks could kill, I'd be six feet under by now.

"Cynthia, don't listen to her. She's just saying nonsense" he paused and look at me, then back at Cynthia. "Look at her, does she look like she worth my time?"

My heart cracks a little bit. So he thinks Cynthia is better than me because she's beautiful, haven't he heard that beauties got no brain?

Cynthia... What a silly name.

No offense to those bearing Cynthia 

"Well, Fred. You...."

"Shut up!" He cuts me off and lungs at me.

He takes my neck in a tight grip, choking me.

"I said don't call me by my first name. It's Mr Russell to you! Now bounce!" He roared and throws me across the room.

I tried my best to save myself from falling too hard. I hold my neck and take large gulps of air, I stand up and head out. Immediately, my luggage was thrown out.

My luck is so bad. First I was engaged to him, second, that not been enough, I have to fall in love with him.

And he's nothing but a BEAST!

Ah! He calls me ugly, I'll call him beast. Ugly and the beast.

I dragged my luggage behind me and head to the third room. I open the door and step in, after putting my luggage in a corner, I lay on the bed to sleep.

10minutes later.....

I can't sleep... No matter how hard I try, I can't seem to bring myself to sleep. The noise coming from Fred's room is just too loud.

It's not just any noise. It's the sound of Fred's bimbo moaning.

"Oh my God!"

"Ohio! Yes, baby!"

"Right there, don't stop Fred!"

I put the pillows on my ear to stop me from hearing her screams but it doesn't to work.

I sit up on my bed and sigh frustratingly. How can her voice be this loud, for godsake they're two rooms away. I need to distract myself.

I leave my room and head downstairs looking for the kitchen. Finally I see the kitchen, I begin to open cabinets one after the other, but I didn't see any food.

Maybe I should check the fridge. I open the fridge and I saw a cup of pudding. Ah! This would do.

I take out the pudding and sit in a stool next to the counter and start to devour the pudding. By the time I'm done with the pudding, the noise had died down.

And besides hear the main door open, I guess miss bimbo is leaving. So quick? I thought she'd stay the night. Well that is none of my business.

I stand up and head to my room. Getting to my room, I check the time it's 3:40am.

That beast! 

I better sleep now, or I won't get up early for my test tomorrow. I lay back on my bed and close my eyes and force myself to sleep.

Next morning.....

' Grrrrrrrrrrrh '

I wake up to the sound of my alarm playing on my phone. I yawned sleepily, I stretched my body and rub my eyes.

I switch off the alarm and I lay back down to sleep for five more minutes, but I jerk up again from the rapid knocking on my door. 

My eyes move to the wall clock on the wall, 7:00am and my test start by 7:30am. I quickly jump up from the bed, totally ignoring the Knocking in my door.

I dash into the bathroom and quickly do my business. I changed into a plain white turtle neck and a black leather skirt that reaches my mid thigh, I wore my shoe and rush downstairs. 

Just when I'm about to open the door, a voice stop me.

"And where do you think you're going?"

Oh no! Don't tell me you want to start last night's conversation all over again. I slowly turn around with a nervous smile on my face.

"H-hi" I waved him.

"I'm hungry" he said plainly. 

I stare at him confused. If he's hungry he should get something to eat.

"Hmm, the kitchen is that way" I points towards the kitchen.

He frowns.

"So?"

"You should get something to eat instead of telling me you're hungry"

"Is that so... "

He smirked and crosses his arms around his chest.

"I remember you telling Cynthia last night, that you're my world and you'll have me forever" he paused.

I feel my cheeks warming up as he replays last night's event to me. Hearing him say those words now, made me realize I made a fool out of myself.

"I see you so badly want to be my woman" he said.

"What? N-no.... I... You..." I'm short of words.

How can I think I want him so badly. Yes I fell in love with him at first sight, but it doesn't mean I'm desperate to be with him. I can still fall in love with someone else.

"Now I want you to do what I expect my woman to do for me"

What is he planning now? I don't have this time he's wasting. Hold on... I open my mouth when it dawn on me. I quickly cover my chest with my arms and glare at him.

Don't tell me he wants us to have sex like other couples do.

"What do you mean?" I asked him with my voice trembling in fear.

"To cook for me. I'm hungry and I want to eat noodles and eggs"

Huh! So he only wants me to cook? Why did I not think of this first?.

"But I can't do that now"

"Why?"

"I have test this morning and I'm already running late" I explained.

He smirked and I can see his eyes twinkling in evil. I can tell his head is running wild of evil thoughts now.

"You have test! Well that is not my problem"

" What? "

" Yeah. My problem right now is food. I'm starving after last night's work" he said.

I rolled my eyes. Last night's work indeed.

" But if I don't leave now I'll miss the test"

"Ugly I told you that is not my problem, according to you, you're my fiancée and it it your duty to take care of my needs."

" What if I decide to leave without cooking the noodles and eggs"

He takes slow predatory steps towards me and I involuntarily take one back.

"If you don't prepare the noodles and eggs, I'll chase you from my penthouse and I'll tell our parents that you want to break the engagement"

" You wouldn't dare! "

" Oh, ugly! I would. Imagine how broken hearted your mother will be"

So he wants to blackmail me.

Well fine, if it's noodles he wants, he shall have them.

" Fine, I'll make it"

"Good girl" he said and reaches out to pat my head, but I dodged his hand.

" Beast! " I muttered under my breath hoping he wouldn't hear me, but he did.

"You said?"

"Nothing!" I said and put on a forced smile.

Then I drop my backpack in the sofa and head to the kitchen. I'll prepare noodles that he'll never forget in his life.

He stands by the kitchen door watching my every move, like he doesn't have anything to do.

After 13minutes or so, I'm finally done. I place the plate of noodles on the table and wait for him to taste it.

He inhale deeply.

"Ugly, this smells so good. I bet it's very sweet" 

I give him a tight smile.

"Yeah!" I said.

He takes a spoon and put it in his mouth, then he starts chewing. After chewing for some seconds, he spits it out and his face goes red.

"Holy shit!!" He exclaims and starts looking for water.

I laughed quietly.

"Holy shit! Bloody hell!" He wipes his mouth and starts blowing out air. "What the duck is this you cooked? Why is it so god-damned spicy!!"

"You asked for noodles, right? Well that's it"

" Then, why is it so spicy and hot?!!" He asked, his eyes bringing out water and I almost, almost pity him.

" Oh! That is pay back!!" I told him and run out of the dinning room.

"Ugly come back here! I'm not done with you!" I hear him scream behind me. But I pay him no attention, I need to try and catch up with my test.

Fred

My mouth is burning like an erupting volcano. The food is so spicy, and I'm allergic to too much pepper. I see small red spots forming on my skin.

Pay back?! I'll make her regret what she just did when she gets back.

I quickly head upstairs to my room to get my medicine..
