"I'll take care of it." He said and went to get the door.We are here now at his condo. Its been three days since I got drunk. He went back to their company which I didn't know was a few hours away from here. But he returned home two days later.I got annoyed with him when he said that he would come back there but also promised to come home soon. It's good that he fulfilled it. I might get drunk again. Yesterday, he came home at night so I was here at his condo straight after school and then slept here.Someone's ringing his door bell so there he's checking who it is, but he seemed to know that someone was coming today. I think it's his brother. I confirmed that it was his brother when I heard their voices talking near here.I was eating pasta when they entered. I stopped eating when I saw his brother looking at me."Hey!" He said. I put down the fork and sat down."Hi!" I greeted back. Kalle immediately sat next to me."Take a seat." He ordered his brother, Trevor immediately sat in
What is he doing? What is this?! What does this mean? And why am I so affected? Maybe because it's only done to me once? I was used to having just flings, and the pursuit of those was always just make-out. They didn't hold my hand like this, because in the first place we weren't connected romantically.Why is he doing this? Why is he holding my hand like this? Now when his brother is here in front of us. I looked at Trevor. There was a trace on his face that he noticed Kalle and I were holding hands. I saw him smirk but he hid it by drinking some water.I felt ashamed. I don't know if I'm ashamed to show in front of Kalle's brother that we're sweet, that we're flirting.I looked at Kalle again, he stared at me too. He looks serious and seems just calm with our holding hands while I am very thrilled with it. His palm is not that smooth, but it's not rough either, it's also soft and it feels so warm. It feels like it's made to fit my hand. Like they were made to hold each other like thi
"Are you really not going to change your decision, father?" My voice sounded like I was already pleading. It could be heard in my voice how much I wanted him to change that decision of his.He's just watching me with his serious glare. Sumptuously sitting there, with his intimidating presence and strict aura."What do you want to happen, Quiva? I thought we were fine with my decision. We've talked about this a long time ago." His voice rises slightly. He's now getting angry. I sighed, annoyed."I wasn't fine with it! I never agreed to that! Can't you change your mind, father? Please, revoke your decision that only you wants it."His aura darkened even more. He looks like he got angry with my words when I didn't say anything wrong. I didn't say anything bad, I just told the truth."We have discussed this for a long time, Quiva. I have made this decision for a long ago, and I will not change my mind unless you have an acceptable and genuine reason that could change my mind!" He said str
My whole body tensed. I couldn't move. It was like a bucket of cold water was poured on me. Did I hear it right? Did he say Morton? For a few moments my brain didn't work. Couldn't believe what I heard.Morton... Morton...I know that surname very well. I know the person who has that surname. Fuck! Nicholas surname is Morton!Damn! Is it Kalle? Is it him? I felt giddy when I thought about that. Damn! If Nicholas is the one I am to marry, I am very willing. But then I had another hunch. Nicholas has a brother, and Trevor told me he's arranged to marry someone else. Fuck! Is it me? Was he referring to Trevor? Am I bound to marry Trevor? But I don't think that's true. Trevor is fine with his marriage, so if he is to marry me he will not be fine with it because he knows his brother and I have something. But what if he also doesn't know that I'm his fiancee?"What's his name?" I asked my fathe
I stopped myself, he shouldn't know that I was crying. Once he sees me crying, he will definitely find out why I'm crying. And I don't want that to happen. I don't want him to know what I know. "You've been there for a while now. Are you taking a shower?" I heard him say. I quickly took off my clothes because of what he said, and then I went to the shower and got my self wet with the water. I went back behind the door right after. "I'm taking a shower. What is it?" I lied to him. Still sobbing a little. "Open the door. Let's take a shower together." He said, and then laughed darkly. I was nervous. We showered together several times. It's not new to me to take a bath together. I'm nervous because he might notice that I just cried, and I might cry again in front of him. "Just take a shower later." I told him. I thought he was going to let me go but he wouldn't stop until I opened the door. Like a kid. I opened the door and let him take a bath with me. I immediately turned away from
"Are these enough?" I asked while observing the amount of potatoes I put in the basket. I felt his hand on my waist, and looked at the contents of the basket."Yes, baby." He said softly, and went back on finding the other ingredients we needed.We're going to celebrate Noche Buena together, and he'll cook the foods that we'll eat. He wanted to get plenty of potatoes. He's gonna cook mashed potatoes and chicken potato balls. Well, he's the only one who eats mashed potatoes. I don't know why he'll still cook that. I let him be, because it's his favorite.He bought a lot of chicken skin. He said he knows how to imitate the taste of jollibee's chicken. I was happy, he would have to deal with me he wouldn't get the taste. I'm so excited, I'm afraid I might just get disappointed. But I have a feeling that he will get the taste of it. He's a good cook.Tell me why should I stop praying for him to be my husband. Give me a reason not to want to marry him. I love everything about him. I think
I texted Kalle, asked him where he was, but he didn't reply. I'm getting all nervous. My body was stiff, I was restless in my seat. From time to time I could feel my father glancing at me. I tried to calm myself and act normal.I feel like my head is going to explode from overthinking. It didn't help Kalle's not replying!Maybe it's just me, overthinking that his family are the people we're waiting for. Maybe he isn't replying because they are having a party with his family.I hope so.I anxiously looked at the crew. They are serving our food. Fuck! Why is it so fancy? What the fuck is going on?!There is so much food, and f*cking elegantly served. Everything's prepared so well.I stood up, restless in my place. I was about to excuse myself to go to the restroom but then my father said something. I felt like fainting when I heard what he said."They are here." He said seriously. My mom and my sister stood up, and prepared to welcome the people we were waiting for.I froze in my place.
My whole world was shaking. I can feel my sisters holding on to my hand tightening. I was so nervous that I cried. My emotions about to explode.Not now, not in front of Kalle. If Trevor is really my fiance, I don't want Kalle to know about it yet. I don't want him to hear it face to face. I can't take it. I don't know what to do."Quiva, your fiance is Trevor Morton."A tear fell from my eyes the moment I heard the words of my father. I looked at Kalle while he said that. I saw the anger in his eyes. He knew I knew about this. He knows I already know, that Trevor is my fiance.Trevor looked more shocked compared to me. He was also stunned and frozen in place. My visions blurry by the tears that are forming. I just closed my eyes when I saw Kalle's angry face before he leave. I don't know where he's going.I took courage. I removed my sister's hold on my hand, and ran away from there. I will find Kalle. I need to talk to him. I need to explain to him."Kalle?" I called out even though
