"Hope we're not disrupting anything"
I heard Alex voice and quickly pulled away from Brian.
I was trying to compose myself but heaven knows it's not working. I'm sure Alex saw everything but pretended as if she didn't.
"Hi." I called
"Hello" Jake said holding Alex by her shoulders and pulling her closer to himself.
"How are you guys doing?" Brian asked shaking hands with Brian while Alex smiled at me.
"We're cool. sorry for today. Alex was really down so I had to take care of her." Jake explained
"no it's okay"
"So how did it go?"
"It was alright." I said smiling sheepishly.
I was thinking about everything that happened earlier before they arrived.
.
Alex excused herself from Jake and walked into the room with me while the guys talked about random stuff.
"So.. " she trailed off after shutting the door behind her "how did it
MARRIED TO MR RIGHT (MMR)***#19"I believe you owe me a kiss now" he says while I stood there like a statue staring at him in disbelief as he started laughing hysterically."A... a kiss?" I stuttered causing him to laugh really hard. is the kiss really that funny?he cleared his throat "don't worry you can do it. it's just a harmless kiss and we've kissed on countless occasions before right?" he asked but I didn't respond. just then he leaned forward "are you scared Ciara?"he seems to be enjoying this. I bit my lips as I weighed over the pros and cons in my mind.why is he asking me to kiss him?he's never done something like this before.Maybe it's one of his tricks to see if I've finally fallen for him.He must think I'm crazy. well I was actually crazy to make a bet With a guy like Brian.Who does he think he is to ask me to kiss him.I let out a breath as I stared at his face.
MARRIED TO MR RIGHT(MMR)***#01"There all done" The makeup artist Brian had told to make me up said to me. I felt the tears coming out from the corner of my eyes."don't you want to see how it looks?" she asked again but this time placing the mirror in front of me. I took it from her and threw it on the floor making it smash into a million pieces.My life is being ruined and I can't seem to do anything about it. I can't believe I'm getting married to this arrogant bastard.There was a time in my life when I wanted to get married to a, man who would love me for me, a man who would respect me, who would cherish every moment I had with him, who would be ready to love me till death do us part but now it's just the complete opposite.Marriage was supposed to be a sacred relationship between two people. it is a second important relationship in a, woman's life. how would I be able to survive in this life commitment when the
MARRIED TO MR RIGHT (MMR)***#02THREE MONTHS EARLIER"Ciara wake up" Mom called from across the room."Please let me sleep a little. I'm having a headache" I lied"I said wake up" She said in anger and shook me violently. I had no other choice but to wake up like she demands."Alright I'm up" I said and scuttledto the bathroom to have my shower then went downstairs to cook breakfast."Breakfast is ready"I call after setting the table. Everyone gathered round and sat down. Seems like everyone is at home today.I went up to my room and grabbed my bag then rushed downstairs to go when my mom called me" Where are you going?""To work. I'm already late" I tell her"You won't be if you woke up earlier than this" She gave me a glare and continued eating"I had a stressful day yesterday and I came back late last night so I had to sleep in" I explain to her but it seems
MARRIED TO MR RIGHT (MMR)***#03He wore his clothes and rushed out to the living room. He sat down to wear his shoes when his wife who was busy reading the papers asked"where are you going all dressed up?""I'm off to the bank to get a loan for a new business that I'm about to put up?" he said excitedly not noticing the perplexed look on her face"A loan? and how do you intend to pay back? you and I know that there's no such money in this house and you're thinking of getting a loan?" she snapped"I'm sure it's gonna work out don't worry""of course I'm going to worry. Ben has no job to support the family and Ciara can't even pay up with the little cents she make. so what if something goes wrong? who are you gonna lean on?" she asked again feeling irritated"you trust me don't you?" he asked searching her eyes for an answer but she glared at him"trust? let's not go there right now. because I don
MARRIED TO MR RIGHT (MMR)***#04I quickly glanced at my watch. it was almost eight at night. I can't believe that I seated here till this time. it's already late.I quickly stood up and made my way home.I got a cab and drove home.immediately I arrived, I walked straight to the kitchen to make dinner. I have to get mom some food to eat cause I'm sure she's very hungry.I didn't bother taking off my clothes so I set to work.the door opened slightly"Ciara" my aunt called. I turned to look at her and continued chopping the vegetables.I can't believe that she was at home all this while and never bothered to cook anything.she didn't even visit the hospital to check how dad is doing. some aunt she is."Where is mom and Ben. they just ran out of the house and refused to tell me anything" she pulled a chair and sat down"Maybe if you tried calling your husband then you would kno
MARRIED TO MR RIGHT (MMR)***#05"You're Brian?" I ask.I need a mental check."what can I get you? water or probably mud?" he asked and I felt weak all of a sudden. he flipped through some papers then stood up and slowly walked up to me.Alright now I'm scared."don't worry, I won't hurt you" he said as if reading my thoughts. "I should be mad at you but I must confess that you're indeed very beautiful" he placed his hand on my cheeks but I yanked it away.Now I know why that man asked if I was his side chick or girlfriend. it's crystal clear. Brian is a flirt. a huge one.damn the nerves of this guy. who the fuck does he think he is to touch me in such manner?I should really be feeling bad for what I did to him at dad's workshop but looking at him now, I don't regret anything. he deserves worse than that. I just hope he listens to what I have to say."So Ciara. nice name" he said and hel
MARRIED TO MR RIGHT (MMR)***#06"Here, try to eat something." I told dad and gently placed the tray on his thigh.I opened the dish while he stared intently at me.It's about a week after his surgery and I guess he's fully strong now. not that strong but okay.The past few days had been horrible for me. I had to work long hours take care of the family at the same time.I was already loosing weight and was gradually fading and as if it's not enough, Brian keeps on reminding me of our deal.I know that he already has, a right to me now but shouldn't take it slow. he doesn't expect me to just rush off and get married to him.Ben on the other hand, had started applying for jobs and going for different interviews.maybe he has had a change of heart or probably feels like everything would be on his shoulder once I'm gone so he has to prepare for the worst."thank you Ciara. your mom told me ever
MARRIED TO MR RIGHT (MMR)***#07*BACK TO PRESENT*it was 3:00am in the morning when I heard a low chuckle.who could that be at this hour?I tried to ignore but it didn't stop. I guess it was Brian. but why isn't he asleep?I later heard a, deep voice followed by a girly giggle.I quickly stood up and made my way to the living room.immediately I arrived, I saw Brian perfectly seated on the couch with a blonde hair girl on his thighs.they were too engrossed in their romance to notice my presence in the room.Brian is cheating on me?I mean, not that I didn't expect it but we just got married, it's not even up to twenty four hours and a girl is already swaying her boobs at him.Couldn't he at least wait for just one day before doing this.I felt so irritated, it's so gross. I've never seen a, guy making out with a girl before. and for the first time I'm seeing it happe

MARRIED TO MR RIGHT (MMR)***#17"Good morning sleeping beauty" I heard Brian's voice in my sleep.I opened my eyes to adjust the rays of sun passing through them.i sat upright on the bed as the blanket fell to the bed.I had forgotten that I was half naked until I heard Brian Cough"What's wrong?" I ask.he didn't say anything but pointed at my chest.I looked down only to realize that I was just in my bra which exposed my cleavages. I quickly pulled up the sheets to cover my body.I looked at Brian, he turned his head to the other side.why is he acting like he's never seen a naked woman before? I'm pretty sure Janelle Walks round the house in nudes giving him a chance to wander his eyes over her body and here he was pretending."Good morning" I greeted Brian who placed a tray containing tea and muffins."Rise and shine sleepy head"I grinned, holding my head.
MARRIED TO MR RIGHT (MMR)***#16"Cheers"We all echoed at the same time round the dinner table.We were having dinner at Alex and Jake's garden tonight. They decided to give us our victory meal even when we tried to oppose the idea.Actually, we were having the meal together.They were almost like family now. we even decided that both families would be having dinner together from now on.I helped Alex prepare the meal and damn, she is such a great cook. I overheard Jake saying that she once attended a chef programme in LA before they got married so it's pretty obvious that she'll be this good."To Brian and Ciara for winning the piggy race" Jake said causing us to laugh as, we clinked our glasses together."Damn. you guys were pretty good today. like a, pro" Alex said giving Jake a soothing massage on his shoulders with her hands."Yeah. we make a pretty good team" Brian said I smiled shee
MARRIED TO MR RIGHT (MMR)***#15I woke up and was greeted by Brian's face.he slept really close to me that our faces were touchingHow did we get here? last thing I remembered was—oh shit!I fell asleep on his shoulders but how come we're both on the bed.He grinned and placed his hand on my hips possessively. he's forming a habit with this and I can't risk it. I ran my hands over my body quickly.I heaved once I realised that I was still on my clothes.So that means nothing happened between us last night.Great!I glanced at the alarm clock. it was almost eight in the morning. how did I sleep so late. I tried pulling Brian's hands from my hips but he tightens his grip on them. I tried to wiggle free but it felt kinda impossible.He pulls me closer to him as if he wanted to kiss me but I looked away."Brian get your hands off of me" I say trying to hit him but
MARRIED TO MR RIGHT (MMR)***#14We took a cab at the airport and drove off to only who knows where.Our tourist guide couldn't stop preaching about the goddamned place.Brian was already feeling tired of the ride. it was way out of town."The beach here is nice. The sun is magnificent. wait till you get out on the sand with the wind in your hair. you'll have a great time over here in Hawaii" he said drifting to the left."Do they have a, place where you can keep annoying people" I ask making Brian turn his face to look at me.The driver laughed."Most times." he said chuckling"great" I giggle"And hope the clubs are nice too. I heard you have a great night club over here. you know, where you can meet incredibly gorgeous and sexy girls" he said trying to annoy me"Maybe we could go together. I'll love to be around those handsome and muscly d
MARRIED TO MR RIGHT (MMR)***#13"are you fully packed?" Brian asked me stuffing my luggage inside the car.I nod "Yes that's all""Have you called penny?" he asked again"Yes I have. she'll be here in a while" I say not looking at him.My eyes were fixed somewhere else. I'm leaving the country and i couldn't say one "Goodbye" to my parents and Brian doesn't seem concerned about it. he just acts like he doesn't care.part of me feels like murdering him right here and now.I notice him glance at his watch. I guess he was getting pissed off with penny running late.I hope she doesn't come so we can cancel.We waited for about half an hour before penny came running to us. but surprisingly, she didn't come prepared. just a clutch hanging on her shoulders."What took you so long penny, we've been worried sick and we're running late" Brian st
MARRIED TO MR RIGHT (MMR)***#12I woke up the next morning and had a cold shower.last night was a wild one and I'm glad it's over.I slipped into a pair of leather pants and a white top. then I rolled my hair into a messy bun. I walked out from the bedroom and went straight to the kitchen.After thinking of the perfect breakfast. I settled for tuna casserole.I quickly prepared breakfast and set up the table.I served breakfast and sat down to eat mine."Why is he not here? he's never late for breakfast" I thought to myself and shrugged.I pushed the thoughts of Brian aside and sat down on the couch. I went through a, magazine I saw on the table to pass time.20 minutes30 minutesAn hour???I glanced at my watch for the umpteenth time. No sight of Brian. where could he have gone.I stood up and
MARRIED TO MR RIGHT (MMR)***#11we pulled away from the kiss and that's when I realized what I was doing.I Kissed Brian again?what is wrong with me? why couldn't I resist?But damn I guess I kinda liked it. I put my clothes in order. I couldn't even look at him.We were both avoiding eye contact.I sighed and wiped my lips with my hands.He adjusted his tie and tried to walk away."Where do you think you're going?" I ask, feeling a lot irritated by what happened"To finish dinner. that's what we came here for, right?" he asked, sarcasm down his throat.He just kissed me and pretended as if nothing happened.I mean I wasn't expecting to act like something happened but still"You just kissed me Brian, forcefully" I said pointing at him"And what part of it didn't you enjoy?" he asked feeling a bit
