Chapter 1 : Unexpected Groom

Chrisanna"Samuel said YES", I'm goggling at the message reflecting on my screen. I have read it more than a hundred times now, countless times pinched myself and it's not a dream. "Is he old?""No. He's twenty-five. Maybe, two to three months older than me""Is he ugly?""No""Is he a playboy?""No. I mean— I don't know""Is he an Andrew Tate fan?" "No", I shoot Nancy a glare as my voice comes uncontrollably like a thunderstorm.The tiny opera club where people have been vibing idly is now converted into people who are eyeing me. "Then what's the problem?" She asks, sipping from her beer. "He doesn't sound to be that bad""I never said he is bad", I shrug, taking a look at my wristwatch. "Or else you're into girls", Nate suddenly jumps into the conversation as he settles his glasses carefully on the middle of his nose, looking into his phone. As usual."Huh?" I choke on my drink. "Gosh!" Nancy enlarges her eyes. "Girl, I hope you never intended to kiss me on the sleepovers""Wha

Chapter 2 : Trapping the groom

Chrisanna Wait!I blink twice, take a deep breath and look up at him again. He's looking straight into my eyes, unconcerned, unaffected as if I'm a literal stranger he's talking to. "What?""Break the damn alliance, Auburn!" he repeats with a fierce tone. I hadn't been called by my middle name ever since he left because he used to be the one to call me Auburn. I try not to dive into my thoughts right now since I have to know what the hell is going on."Okay. I'm definitely not getting anything. You want me to break the alliance?" I ask again.His jaw clenches as his thick eyebrows narrow as if he's done with repeating. "Yeah. You have good hearing. I said it", says Samuel.And what the hell!"Okay. Then why did you agree in the first place?" I scoff. He doesn't reply for a second. "I'm not here to take on a rivalry with you""Why do you want me to do that?" I exclaim. "Simply because I don't wanna marry you", his voice is much harsher than before. His abrupt confession has me i

Chapter 3 : Wedding!

ChrisannaI left everyone discussing my decision and came back to my room to take a shower. I'm indeed a little nervous about the thing I have done only to teach Samuel a good lesson. What if it somehow goes wrong?I hope it does not. I'm doing it after joining all the practical thoughts together. If I wait for Samuel to announce his actual decision, he's going to eat up all the time we'll be getting before the wedding. I can't carry this facade for so long. And it's gonna build more excitement and expectations in everyone. I'm sure Samuel is going to lose his mind and immediately announce his decision to call off the marriage. A knock occurs on my door after I get dressed in my sweatshirt and yoga pants. I open the door and discover paa standing over there."Were you about to take a nap?" he asks."No, paa. Please come inside", I say.My heart races faster. Paa knows me more than anyone. And I hate to lie to him. I hope he doesn't ask me anything about my decision."How's your lea

Chapter 4 : A New Beginning?

Chrisanna Damn! Was that a— dream? I find myself on my bed when I open my eyes wider. I was sleeping! That was a dream! That marriage— I get up right away and roll my eyes around. Meanwhile, mama comes into the room. My eyes widen at her. She's wearing the same dress that she was wearing at the wedding!"Hey, you woke up?" She smiles and strides towards my bed. Cupping my face, she looks at me with concern in her eyes. "How are you feeling now?"I frown. "What happened to me?""Chrissie, you fainted after the wedding ceremony", she tells me.My lips part in shock. I look down at myself. I'm wearing the wedding dress. This means I actually fainted."I'm married?" I exclaim."Chrissie, are you alright, sweetie?" her voice is more serious this time as she stares down at me. I pull on an immediate smile and hold her wrist. "Yes. I'm fine, mama. I just don't remember how I— fainted. I thought I was dreaming about the— wedding", I mutter, recollecting every moment of the ceremony. I can

Chapter 5 : He's a mystery

Chrisanna Which message? My eyes widen at his question. Meanwhile, before I could say anything else, Kylee comes inside with Zoey. Zoey meows at me right away, jumping onto my lap. "She missed you", Kylee pets Zoey's head as I smile, rubbing her fluffy furry torso."Wait!" Samuel husks. As my gaze drifts back to him, he gawks at us in disbelief. "What's this?" he scoffs, narrowing his thick eyebrows in annoyance. I look at Zoey before focusing back on Samuel again. "This? This is a dinosaur with lots of furs and fluff"Samuel throws me a blank look. "I didn't know you had never seen a cat before in your life, Samuel", I gasp under my breath as Zoey snuggles to me. Kylee cracks up. "I can see, it's a cat. But why is it here?" he shrugs."First of all, she's a female cat. So, stop saying 'it'. Call her 'she' And her name is Zoey. Cute no?"Samuel rolls his eyes. "Okay. But it— why is she here?""Because I'm here""Why are you even here?" he grunts with a voice of frustration.I t

Chapter 6 : Happily Married!

Samuel "Denial is normal. Having no clue what to do is normal. You don't understand why you're doing a certain thing. It's fine. Everything makes sense as long as you accept yourself, your emotions, and your decisions. Acceptance is the key. God accepts you, understands your dilemma and you also SHOULD"I lock my phone and take my AirPods out after turning the podcast off. Summer has finally arrived and I didn't realise that until I landed in Texas. It's still colder in Melbourne. It's always cold over there, at least to me. The warmth is missing which I always feel in Texas. For eight years, I was away from this warmth. I am scared of it, even though I like it. I'm scared of light, sunshine and zeal. Over the years, it only got worse. I look at my phone. It's already eight. Sitting on the wooden bench, I watch the unknown faces cheerfully jog around to start a better day. And I'm here to start a day without the expectation of any change. I get onto my feet and put on the hood of

Chapter 7 : First day went wrong

Samuel Kylee is glaring at me in the hope of hearing an explanation—an explanation that likewise confuses me. Indeed, I had no desire to marry Chrisanna. It was a guilty pleasure that I was running from. Yet, I recall the absurd dilemma I was in yesterday when I received her message. My stomach dropped and I typed that message out of nowhere. I still don't know why I did that and I don't want her to ever find that out."Samuel, I'm talking to you", Kylee screeches, dragging me back to my senses.A sigh of distress escapes me as I look at her. "Listen, little bug", I touch her cheek. "I'm really sorry you had to take this blame for me. But this is the first time I have asked for something. From you"Her raging eyes gradually cool down as she blinks at me, nodding."You can at least do that for me""I can", she looks at me with her confusion-filled eyes. "But I can't understand why you did it. If you truly wanted to marry her then—""No", I snap, stuttering the next moment. "I never

Chapter 8 : Night changed

Chrisanna "Ms Corinna wants a beach-themed shoot. She emailed me last night", Phoebe tells me as I scatter all the pictures of some locations from different angles. "Great! She has a shoot scheduled for tomorrow. How are we going to get the location ready in less than 24 hours?" shrugging, I toss the notepad at Derek's face. Accidentally. "Sorry, Derek!" I scoff. "Go and pick up the goods soon as possible. I'll have to shut down before the afternoon"Derek fixes his hair which was definitely not that affected by his face getting slammed."Miss C, are you okay?" he groans."Derek, it'll be better if you pay attention to your internship rather than my mood!" I snarl at the nineteen-year-old boy as he nods and walks straight out of the room. Paxton and Mayla scramble to return to their work as my gaze falls on them.When I'm working, I'm never in a bad mood. I enjoy working and am not rude to my coworkers. However, I have been unable to maintain a positive attitude since my marriage.

Chapter 9 : Breathe!

Chrisanna Samuel's eyes fix on me without any movement as I make the pillow bridge again. He rolls his eyes and looks away as if he's done with me. I'm so tired of this attitude when he acts like I'm getting on his nerves. I set a pillow against the headboard and lean against it, holding my tablet as I focus on making a theme board for my next shoot. I hear him opening the closet but don't give much attention to it, instead, I hold my focus on the tablet. It takes me a while to balance all the colour palettes with the dress code. I finished a lot of stuff in one sitting and finally exhale a sigh of relief, closing the tablet.Surprised, I find Samuel still digging inside the closet. He throws his clothes on the bed and again folds them. I realise he didn't come to bed and he had been near the closet for forty minutes straight.Don't talk to him.Don't call him.I shouldn't care. I keep ranting this to myself. However, I can't ignore the anxious look on his face."Samuel!" I call h

Chapter 10 : A new chapter!

Chrisanna "Sorry?" I shake my head, wondering if I have misheard her."You'll be reporting Mr Samuel Vance, Chrisanna", Nicole repeats with a teasing smile lingering on her face. Of course, she's the only one from this office who attended the wedding and knows about it. "Wow!" Nancy exclaims and I pinch her under the desk to keep her mouth shut.I'm freaking out over here. "Nicole, me? I'm just halfway through my internship. I'm not even ready yet""You are, Chrisanna. You're much better than you think you are. Trust me", she says and looks at her wristwatch. "I'll come to escort you to B corp in an hour. All the best"Nicole surges away after giving me a mini panic attack. "Damn, you're lucky!" Kizzy scoffs. "But what will you do with this luck? You have a fiance""And you are too boring to play around", Nancy groans."Shut up, you two", snarling, I come out of my desk and walk faster towards paa's cabin.* "Come in"I come inside with my heart still pounding against my chest."G
