All Chapters of Arranged Marriage To My Boss: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

   "Miggy, anong ginagawa mo dito?"   Sa dami-rami ng lugar sa mundo. Bakit nga ba dito ko pa makikita ang ex-boyfriend ko? I don't love him anymore. Or I guessed, never did I? Hindi naman sa bitter ako sakanya. We broke up after trying it for few months. He was nice and romantic, kaya nga napasagot niya ako. It was just he had some weird habit that I couldn't stand.    "May secret job lang na kailangan gawin," sabi nito. "Saan ka papunta? Sabay kana saakin, hatid na kita."   "No thank you," umiiling na sagot ko. "May orientation ako ngayon araw. Actually, doon lang sa building na 'yon. Turo ko sa napakalaking building malapit sa likuran ko.    "Esqueza's Corporation?" Kunot-noong tanong nito. His face changed, as if I said something unpleasant.

  Tama nga ang Newton's third law noong highschool ako. "In every action there is an equivalent and balance reaction." Things weren't doing great the past few days. My parents immediately packed up their things, iyong iba naman ibinenta para pangdagdag sa mga kailangan nila sa probinsya. Kailangan din ibenta itong bahay dahil wala nanaman titira. Kaya kahit ayoko itong iwan, wala akong magagawa. It would never be the same without them. Malulungkot lang ako lalo.   "Ingatan mo sarili mo, anak ha," bilin ni daddy. "Kapag may problema ka, h'wag kang magdadalawang-isip tumawag saakin, okay?"   Niyakap ko siya at idinantay ang ulo sa d****b niya. "Pwede ba ako tumawag kapag hindi ko kaya magluto, Daddy?"   Tumawa siya, halatang pinipigilan ang luha. "Pwdeng-pwede, anak." Niyakap niya ako ng mahigpit. "Mami-miss kita ng sobra."   Hindi ko na napigilan ang pagtulo ng luha ko. Since birth ata, s

I couldn't hardly breathe. I think my airways was closing because of this scenario! I tried to look at him but he wasn't smiling like the usual, nakakatakot lalo iyong aura niya. Kahit wala siyang sinasabi parang mangangain ng buhay iyong mga mata niya.   "You," he gave me a deadly stare. Nagkarerahan ang mga daga sa loob ng katawan ko. My knees started shaking and my voice went missing. I gave him a questioning look.   "Don't talk," he said in a flat tone. I nodded still couldn't find my own voice. "When your mouth is full, Ms. Villafuente."       I never thought that it was possible to feel like dying when you're still breathing and alive. Ilan araw din akong namuhay sa kahihiyan, takot at pangamba. It's nearly been a week, I was waiting for them to fire me. Paano ba naman kumonti ang pinapagawa saakin, it only meant they were not trusting me anymore. Kaya kahit si Romeo at Ros

    It was like my happy bubbles popped all at once. I was shocked and angry at the same time. Hindi ko alam kung ano ang motibo niya. I know he knew they're my parents, alam ko rin na may balak siya kung bakit niya nagawa iyon. But really? A triple interest, for what?   I couldn't sleep a wink that night. Hindi ko alam kung anong confrontation ang gagawin ko sakanya. I was now infront of his office, talking to his assistant.    "Can you please tell him that I'll wait here kahit ilan oras pa?" pagmamakaawa ko sakanya, I was holding his black suit.    His assistant eyed it, and raised her brow a little. "I told you to go back to work and I'll call you once his schedule frees up today."   "This is really important," pagmamatigas ko. 

  Weeks had passed, nairaos ko ang pakikisama sakanya. Hindi naman ako nahirapan dahil laging late umuwi si Mr. Esqueza. Kagagaling niya rin kasi sa out of town meeting kaya halos hindi na kami nagkikita. I somehow missed talking to him. Ganon pala kapag nakatira ka sa isang malaking bahay, you could have anything you wanted but still feel lonely. Minsan nga naiisip ko na baka iniiwasan niya ako o baka pinagsisisihan niya na ako iyong napili niya?     "Hoy, atey!” natatarantang sigaw saakin ni Romeo. “Nakakaloka! Bakit ka nanaman pinapatawag sa itaas?!”    Parang nagliwanag ang mood ko dahil pagkatapos ng ilan linggo magkikita ulit kami ni Mr. Esqueza. Tumingin ako sa itaas para magpatawa dahil nate-tense agad si Romeo sa pagpapatawag saakin.    “At nakuha mo pang magbiro, ha? Ewan ko lang kung makaka
