SIMON
FUCK!
I shouted as I threw the newspaper that I was reading in my room. It was the announcement of my engagement. I picked up the newspaper and hurriedly run to my dad's office.
"What is this Dad?!" I angrily said as I threw the newspaper in his desk, I have never been this angry my whole life
"Mind your tone Si, it's only natural that we announce this kind of event and it is good for PR" He calmly said
"The only natural way is to announce it is with the whole family not with the whole nation" I madly said
"And besides I never agree to this engagement" I added and I immediately got out of his office without listening to what he was going to say
I AM SO MAD
Andrea must already read about the engagement; I never want to hurt her. I lied to her, I told her that I need to go home because of the family business but it wasn't the case. I thought I could change my parents mind for the span of 2 months but I didn't.
How did I get into this kind of mess?
Ever since I got back here in manila they've been watching my every move like I am a criminal. They told me I had to marry someone or else I will be removed as a Marcos and they'll forget I exist. They also threatened your existence. Fuck!
Flashback
We got back in London last year for the arrangement
"are you ready Simon?" my dad asked
"as if I have a choice" I said angrily
"Simon it's going to be ok" my mom assures
I am mad and so does my dad
My parents told me that they arrange me for fixed marriage with one of my childhood friend here in UK. We are now on our way to meet them.
"Bongbong!" a man shouted as my dad is getting out of the car
Tito Patrick? So that means it's......
"Simon!" she shouted as I was walking towards them then she hugged me
It was Erica Martinez, one of my closest childhood friend in London, she grew up her but she is a pure blooded Filipino. Does she know why we are here?
"how are you?" she asked in a British accent
I was about to open my mouth but she spoke again
"Ferdinand Alexander?" she said while looking at my brother
"you never really change, I said call me Sandro" my brother said while smiling
She hugged my brother and left me there hanging.
We went straight to their dining area since it's almost lunch time and the food is already served.
We ate in silence and we are almost done eating when my parents and Erica's parents broke the silence.
"We have an announcement to make" Tito Patrick started
"Simon and Erica will get married" my dad added
"what?!" Erica said while laughing
"is this a joke, are they joking Simon?" she added with a British accent while looking at me for confirmation
I hope it was a big joke
