CHAPTER 17

Halos hindi na ako makahinga ng maayos dahil ang lapit na namin sa isat-isa, bukod pa roon ay ang lalim ng titig niya sa akin.

He licked his lower lip before speaking.

"You have to fulfill your duties as a wife to me, whether you like it or not.”

It felt like the world stop right after those words came out from his mouth. Is he being serious right now? Why is he saying this? Ano kaya ang nakain niya at nagde-demand siya ng ganito?

He's telling me to be faithful to him, and that is it!

Mag tatanong pa sana ako sa kanya kung bakit pero nagsalita siyang muli.

“And expect me to do my part. I will also fulfill my duties as a husband to you.” His eyes remained staring at mine and his words felt true.

That was reassuring, but still... I have my doubts.

“Is this for real? Bakit naman iyan ang naisip mo?” As I said the last word, I withdraw a step to keep a space between us and he only watched me do that.

“Why not?” he replied shortly.

Mukhang ang lakas talaga ng trip niya ngayon.
