All Chapters of The Marriage Contract: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

IT was one week had passed since I have received that message, telling me that I should claim my marriage certificate in an office. My whole world was literally shaken by that sudden message I just received. My eyes went wide as I finished reading the message that has been sent to me. I even screamed ‘What?!’ loud and good thing Bella didn’t hear it because she didn’t go to my room to check what was happening why I yelled. At first, I thought that the sender was nuts so I just disregard the message. What matters to me at that time was that I need to go to school and attend my classes that afternoon. I also think that maybe they just send it wrong to the wrong person because why am I married in the first place? I just had broken up with my boyfriend. Not until if, Felix is crazy enough to hire a lawyer and made a marriage certificate telling that we are married together so I have no choice. Tss. As if. If Felix really makes that kind of tactic, I’ll die

"Pardon me, miss and sir?" said the lady, and I looked at her and blinked three times." I'm guessing she's still in high school."Uh... Are you two... a couple?" the lady inquired, which caused her to look at her with wide eyes open. "Because if that's the case, you two could just share the chocolates. Isn't that what couples do?” she said with a bright smile on her face. What she said made me want to rip her smile off.Both I and the stranger beside me turned our heads 90 degrees towards the lady in front of us.“No!”“Yes!”As a result, I quickly turned my head towards the man beside me. I'd say I'm almost boiling with rage right now. He couldn't possibly do it. Regardless of how attractive you are, mister. I'm not going to give you this box of chocolates. We require this! This is necessary for our brain to function properly!“What?!" I screamed in frustration, but he remained silent. I take a deep breat

THEY SAY that when you're in love, you have to be inspired in everything you do. Perhaps they were correct at that point. Because I was always happy and inspired every minute of my life when Felix and I were still together. He didn't cheat until I caught him. It shattered my world into a million pieces. It was the most heartbreaking experience I'd ever had. I simply adore, but why does it appear that fate does not want me to be happy? Perhaps it is true that some people were afraid to be happy because fate would play on their emotions and hurt them. You are inspired when you are in love. But what if your heart has been broken? You're a frozen corpse? Do you appear to be carrying half of the world's problems? Is that it? If there's one thing I've learned from my broken relationship, it's to never give your entire self to someone, especially when there's no guarantee that you two will end up together. I mean, please make s

THEY say that dreaming is free, so keep dreaming. Make big plans. I was in my junior year of high school when I decided I wanted to be an architect. I, too, hesitated at first and became frustrated whenever the thought occurred to me, ‘What if I can't do it?’ ‘What if I don't succeed?’ ‘What if... this isn't the right path for me?’ ‘What if I'm not cut out to be an architect?’ And a slew of "what ifs." But, as Bella once said, "How will you know if you don't try?" That question from my best friend irritates me. And I realize she's correct. There are so many what ifs in my head that I forget I'll never know if being an architect isn't for me if I don't try. I was in my senior year of high school at the time, and I was frustrated. I was even on the verge of crying every morning because I was still undecided about which course I would take in college. I was angry at myself because my classmates kn

IF it was Jake's girlfriend who Lina saw in the mall with him, Bella had better say good-bye to her ultimate crush. What a tragic love story my best friend's best friend would have. I felt bad for her.But, once again, we never found out who that girl Lina saw with Jake was. It could be his cousin, his sibling, or whoever it is. Bella is still hoping that it was Jake's girlfriend until we can confirm it.The night shift went well; there were customers in the shop from time to time, so we didn't have to stay up late tonight for our responsibilities. It was already 10 p.m. when the customers began to leave one by one after finishing their cup of coffee. When someone entered the shop, I was leaning against the counter.I didn't get a chance to look at the man's face because he was too busy roaming his eyes around to find a perfect spot, despite the fact that there weren't many customers by this time and there were plenty of vacant spots. But he seems to find a comf
