Unwillingly Married

Chapter 17

“I want chocolate ice cream”

“With cookies and cream”

I heard him huff and take his phone out dealing someone to get what I want. So yeah the board game brings us on what we are now. Him my slave or more like personal assistant.

After winning he keeps on saying that he wants rematch and after the third rematch he finally accepted his defeat. Ever since then he keeps looking at me like he wants to kill me.

Will it looks like it is the first time of Brian Hawkins lost. I then find out that he is the ace player in their school when he was in high school in playing chess aside from playing basketball.

I look at him at him innocently from the side after I saw him hang out the phone and stuff food in his mouth.

“You know if you don’t want to do it you just say no” I said playing with my fingers looking at him innocently but he just huff and look back at the tv.

So yeah he doesn’t talk to me after that game. He is so pissed and that he decided to just go back home but of course I have the upper hand. We stayed there and watch the sunset before we came back.

“Your such a prick. Can’t accept your lose babe?” I ask sweetly playing with his puffy hair.

But he just ignored me.

He is so pissed at me and I am enjoying it. Payback is a bitch.

“Come on babe, don’t be mad” I said but still doesn’t get any reaction.

He just keep stuffing his mouth with the food.

“Any plan for tomorrow babe?” I ask while keep playing in his hair, it was already afternoon and we never leave this room ever since the yacht yesterday.

“You plan” he said and eat a big bite of cake.

“Aren’t you going to get fat? You eat almost all the cake I told you to take for ‘me’” I said emphasizing the word me.

“You can’t finish all of this and it is just a waste. Girls and their diet” he said.

“Well I am not most of those girls. Remember babe” I said and take the spoon of cake that he is about to have.

I look at him and smile widely. I get up from the couch and went to our room and take a pillow. The pillow is so soft. I throw it to his lap and dive in.

He was shock by my action and I just grin at him.

He just shake his head in my action and takes juice in the coffee table.

Moment later and we were watching tv when the a knock was heard. He look at me with his eyes saying “leave, I’m going to get the door” I just huff and sit in the couch.

He walks to the door and came back with the ice cream in his hands. I clap my hands happily and eat the ice cream.

And yeah, Brian help me finish of all the food. We didn’t even ate dinner and we just fall asleep or I don’t know if he feel asleep but I did.

I wake in with the comfort of the bed and saw that Brian is not in bed.

I look at the window and it’s already night. Taking my phone from the bed side table I switch it on seeing the time. It’s already 10 in the evening.

Wow I sleep so long.

I went out of the bed hoping to find Brian when I heard his voice in the balcony. I walk towards him and heard his voice talking.

When I am near I saw him talking to someone in his phone.

“I’ll be there. You better make sure that everything is done when I get there. I’ll take care of the rest when I came there” I heard him saying and saw him pinching the bridge of his nose.

Might be a company problem. After hanging up the phone he turns around and upon seeing me he looks shock.

“Why are you awake?” he ask his face cold like the one he use when we first meet.

“I don’t know, I just woke up and beside I sleep like hours and now I am up” I explain and look at him.

“How long have you been listening to the phone call? Did you hear everything?” he ask and he looks mad but this time he looks really pissed unlike earlier.

“No I just heard what you said before you hang up. Don’t work up this too much. Like you said were married so a company problem is like also my problem”

“Just stay away from my business” he said and walk pass me.

What the fuck is his problem?
“What the hell is wrong with you?” I ask pulling his arms stopping him from his tracks.

He looks at my hand holding me and back to my face.

“Let go”

“No, unless you tell me what’s wrong. This company problem is making you mad and I want to know. I am not like spying you or something” I explain and look at him not backing down from his intense gaze.

“You don’t need to worry about it. Let’s just go back to sleep” he said completely avoiding my question.

“May I remind you that we have a deal” I said

“And that deal only states that you can have everything you want” he counter

“And I want to know what the hell is the problem” I said.

“There’s no problem, Glyn”

“Yes, there is. Your action after the phone call is so obvious. Your mad over it. I thought that we might work this up but if you’re not telling me anything especially a company problem, which I may can help you then this may never really work up. I hate being left in the dark” I said and walk pass him and went to the kitchen.

I can feel my eyes starting to burn but I didn’t let any tears fall down. I never cried after my mom’s death. I am strong but just because Brian can’t trust me I felt like I am stab with something.

Walking towards the fridge I take a cold water and pour it in the glass. After drinking I feel myself more calmer than earlier when I suddenly felt an arm around my waist.

He nuzzle his face in my neck sending shiver down my spine.

“I’m sorry, it’s not like I don’t want to tell you. I just don’t want you to worry. I can take care of it. Okay?” he explain and I just nodded.

We stay like that for a few moments, him back hugging me, when we decided to come back to sleep.

We came back in the bed but this time we are both on our own side.

“Before coming back home we are going to stay in Venice for some time. I need to fix something before coming back” he said.

“Okay” I said and we are both silent afterwards.

Tomorrow will end our honeymoon vacation. I still can’t believe that for that time I come to know him and enjoy it. It is just that it looks like we are going to leave like the time we both came from here.

The progress I thought that is going is like a bubble, gone. Back to zero.
