They all says that once you love someone and they love you back, the church is the only thing they will go no matter what happens.  When I was a child, I always talk with my grandmother about how I would like to be married in a church full of flowers. 

A simple wishful thinking of a child. Yes, it is. But… who would have thought that, marriage is not the way I think it would be?

Getting married is a piece of crap!!

“And from this day forward, I now announce you, Lea and Aiden to be husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride”

The priest says as he blessed the two of us in front of oh so many people that have the maximum count of my hand.

“I now present to you, Mr. and Mrs. Lazarus! “

And by that, we live happily ever after.

The end.

I did hope that it would be as easy as that but… no. It didn't end up like those you see in the fairytale movies. 

” I have rules to be made. Rules that you must follow or else, your head would be chop off “

It was indeed harsh. To marry someone the day after you bought them in some kind of an auction and now treat her like this… somehow, I can say that I am lucky but… am I really am?

Even the bruises in my hand were still in here. The print of that thing that tied me hasn't been fully removed from my skin. 

It was truly a witty thing for them to make it like this. 

” This is my house and all rules must be done by me. You can never object it. Despite of being my wife, you are first my slave. Do accordingly if you want to live a somewhat good life”

He stated as if he was threatening me. It is as if he was saying that it was him who have the power in this house. 

What else can I do… I am but a piece of slave in his eyes…

What happened to Aunt Estrella by the way? Ah!! Why am I even stucked in this kind of situation???

“Are you even listening to what I am saying? “

Now he was a bit mad since I didn't answer him. He has been talking for a while yet, it was just him who was speaking. Maybe he thinks that he looks like an idiot person talking to himself. 

“Yes, I understand”

I simply reply. There is nothing good if I would act like a brat. Who knows. If I did disobey him... he would do just as what he said. 

Gulping as I slightly touch my neck, I don't want to imagine being killed that way. It would hurt so much! If ever I would die, I wanted to die peacefully.  I don't want to get hurt so bad… it would torture me to be seen my grandmother being in that state…

My thoughts were disturbed as soon as I notice his hand touching my chin. It was just his pointing finger who was touching it but I can't help but do just as what he wanted. 

Raising my chin just to see his face, he let out a smirk that soon disappeared after his words.

“So, if you cherish that head of yours… I advise you to be as good wife just like how you do good in being my bride”

The door suddenly opened after a three consecutive knock. He let go of me and faces the man that entered the room.

“Sir, Master was outside. He was furious on why you didn't invite him in your wedding. Shall I prepare the dining hall? “

Looking at his wrist, he slightly shook his head. 

“It was too early for us to have dinner. Prepare some snacks and drink, we will be out in the garden”

“Yes sir”

And with that, the man went on his way. I didn't notice it at first since Aiden was blocking him, but now as he went out, he seems to be wearing a butler uniform. Those clothes I saw in movies whenever there is a rich kid visiting their big mansion.

Closing my eyes, I even wonder if I can find excuse to get out of this place. 

Grandma… what should I doooooo

And before I can even have any ideas of how to get out of this place, we are now facing the man that the butler stated. 

Wearing some luxurious clothes and watch, no matter what kind of people look at him I know they can easily say that this man in front of them was a rich person. The way he moves, the way he speak, every single detail about him shouts nobility. 

Taking a peek in this man beside me, even Aiden do have that features. Ah, wait a minute…

Looking at the both of them, it surprised me how similar their features is. The fact that they somehow look alike— even the timing of them drinking is perfectly synchronized!

I gulp in realization. 

If Aiden is already a big shot, what's more... this man in front of us.

“What brings you here? Father? “

He said with confidence.  Maybe I should just stay silent. Who knows… if his father thinks of me as a nuisance, he would just order his man to kill me on the spot. That is a big no no! 

I still have to get out of here… somehow…

“I told you to that you must first marry before you succeed in getting the land that was given to you by your mother. It was written in her last will. But to think that you would do this carelessly, are you out of your mind?  My son? “

The way he speaks, I thought he would shout but he still remains having his composure. That was scary…

Again, Aiden took a sip in his cup before answering. 

” I didn't do this carelessly “

” But you just met her. You can't marry someone you've just met! “

“Say by who? Isn't it true that you propose a marriage the very first time you talk to mom? Let's just say that I am just taking the steps of my father”

“That was different. I already know your mother, we just don't talk to each other. That's all. It is different if you who just met this girl, would marry her”

Lea, remain calm… Aiden states that you must perform good as his wife. If you don't want your head to fly in the air or if you don't want to be shoot dead in this place, do a good job. 

“I already married her. There is nothing else you can do. Father.”

“Yes, there is. Son”

    The tension between them is suffocating. I thought that I would die in an instant! But… why am I in this kind of situation in the first place… hah… “Lea… that was your name, right? “ ” Yes, sir “ He stopped on his walks. We are about to go in a greenhouse nearby. Just a while ago, they are talking to each other but now, I was drag by his father for who know what reason it may be. I bet he would chop me and fed me to the pigs? Or maybe he would leave me in a lion's den and let me face my death? Not wanting to think of things as that, I didn't notice that we already arrived in the greenhouse. ” Wow… this place was beautiful… “ I stated out of awe. Surprised by the beauty that I see, I forgot that I was with the father of Aiden. Looking at him he let out a small chuckle. ” Yes sir? “ ” Calling me sir is giving us distance. You are now my daughter in law which means that you can call me as father “ ” But... is it alright? I thought you don't like me for Aiden… “ Wait, what

    Ding As soon as the door of the elevator closed, it left me hanging alone on the lobby. I have no idea of what would happen to me since I was just here because I went together with Aiden. Isn't he supposed to go upstairs together with me? Or is it just natural for him to go in his office without even looking back on where I was? It is not as if I was expecting something from him but as his wife on the public's eye, doing this would just make him be suspicious. Isn't it his main objective to make us look like a couple and not let anyone make suspicion about our relationship?

    “What’s up, man? I brought something along on my way.” As soon as the door opened, he talked to Aiden who was sitting on his chair. Looking at his friend then in me, it was as if it was something that he always sees. Like it was normal that I am here. He didn’t even let himself spare any more time to look at me. So, he really doesn’t know that I was left on the lobby? I just quietly sat on the sofa. He didn’t even let himself spare any saliva to talk to me. The two of them talk to each other as they let myself be focused on my phone. I was busy reading some articles that he wanted me to read. Who knows this would be asked to me one time and when I have no idea of what to tell, he would just give me a bunch of papers that I needed to finish. “It is really a surprise to me to know that you are already married. Like man, you didn’t even tell it to me one time. And to think of it, it was so long ago that you two got married. Isn’t it some kind of cheating? I am your best friend. So w

He bought me which is why he must have his reason to use me whatsoever he likes. But… still… I didn't know that Aunt Estrella can do such thing… “It seems like you have no appetite” It was him. None other than Aiden. The man with a cruel heart. The man who has no idea about the things that are happening to the people around him.

It is also a good thing that we manage to fix things. I have no reason to make enemies after all. “It is my pleasure as well, Aiya” With that, things went the way it should be.

    With a slightly embarrassed face, I was worried that she might find my action insulting. After all, I did learn that people with high status always see things in a different way. “Laughing at others is not a good attitude at all. It was rude of you Miss” Her eyes show a bit of annoyance. Oh no, she really did think of it that way… it would be bad… “I don't mean it that way… I was just… surprised to see another person here... And… I smiled because I find you adorable… sorry if it leads to a misunderstanding…” With her acting embarrassed, so do I… I can understand why she was worried like that. After all, no one would want anyone to see them do things as that… specially if you are a rich person. Although that case is different if you are close with that person. “You find it cute?” She asked as if I said things that as out of the world. Slightly nodding my head, I hear her laughter forming. Wow… that was cute too. She looks like a living doll if I may say “Aren't you interesting?”

    The answer to my question, I soon find it as Aiden went to my direction as he holds my hand. With Sylphia not finding it nice, she just gives off her annoyed look. Strangely, the moment our eyes met, she smiles. What is… with her? “There is no need for you to interact with her” “But why?” “Because most of the girls don't like her. If you know what I mean, then do what I said” Not wanting to ask more question, I was still left puzzled why the treat her like that. I mean… it would really be bad if I would be in trouble just because I talk to her. But… she seems nice… so… why… “Just eat here and don't be bothered with her” We sat in our table and there we saw the couple. Aiya and Elton talking to each other. As soon as Elton notices our arrival, he asked me in curiosity “Oh, there you are. Where did you two go? “ ”…“ I didn't say anything since it was Aiden who give him a question as a reply ” And are you my father to ask me? “ ” Well, even if it is your father who asked you,
