just a stranger

I wasn't worried at all when my mother set me up with her best friend's son and forced me to marry him. I feel like I can handle all that well. Especially if my future husband is a rich billionaire who is very handsome and also successful. Ahh, I feel like a Cinderella who got the husband of a prince on a white horse. But... my dreams just shattered after I experienced the complex household problems that I was facing. Starting from a weird husband, his strange habits, and his first love problems that suddenly appear and complicate our marriage relationship. I felt trapped in the complexities of my domestic relationship with my husband. I'm desperate and I feel I can't handle all these problems well. And just as I was about to step back, I discovered the fact that I was pregnant and I would never be able to leave my strange husband.

Loud music, smoke scattered everywhere, and lots of crazy people dancing their asses out. She was sitting on the corner, still thinking about how her beautiful morning, turned into a disaster. How is her so-called silent life ruined because of one asshole who-she-called Boss? She was fired because of an unreasonable reason. And now, here she is, drinking her ass out because tomorrow will be another day. She drinks and drinks then starts dancing to the tune of electro music. She slowly opened her eyes as she felt something was moving beside her. And suddenly, reality strikes her. Who the fuck this guy beside her? At bakit wala siyang saplot?

Feeling pogi at suplado, ganyan i-describe ni Belle ang ultra rich at most sought after bachelor na si Zyrone Craig. Kaya nang masaksihan niya mismo ang hindi pagsipot ng fiancee nito sa tinaguriang wedding of the year ng mga ito, kulang na lang ay magpa-fiesta siya dahil naniniwala siyang deserve na deserve iyon ng hambog na binata. Tuloy-tuloy na sana ang kanyang pagbubunyi kaso habang tinatakasan nito ang makukulit na taga-media para sa isang exclusive interview, walang sabi-sabing isinama siya nito sa pag-eeskapo. Nadamay siya tuloy sa magulong buhay nito kahit hindi niya plinano. Isusumpa na sana niya ito dahil sa dinala nitong gulo sa buhay niya kaso, naging sabaw lahat ng braincells niya nang bigla siya nitong alukin ng kasal. At take note, um-oo siya! Kung anong nangyari, hindi siya sigurado. Basta ang alam lang niya, nang unang beses siyang halikan ni Zyrone, parang gusto niya ng take-two. At habang tumatagal, nararamdaman din niya na parang hindi na rin masama kung silang dalawa nga ang forever ng each other. Kaya lang, mukhang mahihirapan silang ma-achieve ang happy every after kung maraming sikretong nakapagitan sa kanilang dalawa dahil nga sa parehas silang stranger.

"Kiss me." My eyes widened as my throat ran dry. His lips were inviting but I knew I was walking straight into trouble. "Stop this, Khalil." He came closer, backing me up against the wall, "I said, kiss me. Or no answers." -•- Life goes into sudden crumbs for Kezie when Khalil Ahmed, his rival and arch enemy takes his lips under the warm showers of the boy's locker room. For some stupid answers about what he had said the last night when he was drunken to stupor. But he knows deep down, that Khalil is using his body to invite him in slowly irrespective of what their society believes in. He knows it's a dangerous game. But why does he keep getting succumbed into his kisses? Why is he always begging for more?

"Cheat on him," panimula nito at nagulat ako sa sinabi nya. "W-What?" "Cheat on him and let him find out or see that you cheated, then divorce Elthon." "Bakit? Bakit ko naman gagawin yon sa asawa ko?!" "You know from that I don't like you for my son! Kong hindi ka lang buntis nong time na pinakasalan ka nya hinding-hindi ako papayag na kayong dalawa magpakasal ng araw na yon, tapos ano? Dahil sa katangahan mo nakunan ka!

Cerita ini tercipta berdasarkan kisah yang dialami langsung oleh sipenulis alias cerita asli walaupun mungkin akan terdapat beberapa bagian cerita yang akan dikasi penyedap rasa alias fiktif namun tujuannya tidak lain dan tidak bukan hanya untuk menambah sensasi didalam alur cerita agar pembaca tidak mudah merasa bosan.

Dan hal itulah yang membuat salah satunya kadang terlihat lebih egois dan mendominasi didalam hubungan mereka.

My husband's first love posted a video on her social media. In the video, the two of them were passing a playing card with their lips. When the card fell, their lips met in a kiss. They didn't stop—lost in the moment, they kissed passionately for an entire minute. Her caption read: [Still the same clumsy piggy! PS: Steve's skills are as good as ever!] I quietly liked the post and left a comment: [Congrats.] The next second, my husband called, yelling at me furiously, "No other woman is as dramatic as you! I was just playing a game with Lanie. Why are you acting crazy again?" It was then that I realized seven years of love meant nothing. It was time for me to leave.
