elizabeth's POV
days have been passed, I have settled in here in alexander's mansion a week ago.
he wouldn't let me come to work since I came here and me being a stubborn person that I am, I tried coming to work only for him scolding me and bringing me back home.
I didn't want my work to be passed on somebody else, so I told alexander to bring my laptop and work phone and other important papers for me to do here.
I cant go to work? I bring work here nalang.
wala na rin akong magawa since I finished working, I went to the library na meron si alexander dito sa mansion nya. i'm not even surprised he is a billionaire after all.
I grab the books that I got interested in and walked out towards the living room. this has been on one of my routines since I started living here.
I heard a knock at the front door, I scrunched my eyebrows as I look at the time.
5:30 pm
too early for him to come home, and even though na uuwi sya ng maaga diba dapat may susi sya?
I opened the door only to meet a girl, she is pretty with her blonde hair that goes down to her bum, she is sexy and she looks like a model.
"who are you?" I asked only for her to roll her eyes as she pushed me aside walking her way in.
uhm RUDE.
"the question is who are YOU" may pag diin si ate gurl "alexander's fiance" I said confidently, she laughs.
hindi tawang masaya, tawang bruha.
"oh please we both know na walang feelings and fake lang yun diba? I mean sa itsura mong yan mag kakagusto ang isang alexander elijah cole?" she laughed "never. you both just made a deal kasi para di na sya kulitin ng parents nya at may nanay kang may sakit diba" she pouted crossing her arms.
who the fuck told her that? and who the hell does she think she is to talk to me like that?
"by the way i'm alexander's bestfriend for five years" she introduced herself lifting her hand up for me to shake.
as if naman na hahawakan ko yang kamay na yan, ew, germs.
instead I rolled my eyes "what do you want alexander's bestfriend for five years?" I crossed my arms on my chest.
"it's trisha for you" she walked infront of me as she walked closer I noticed her face is covered in plastic and heavy makeup.
my gosh lapit ko ito sa heater melted na ito, fake pala sya di lang ugali nya.
"you listen here and you listen carefully, I want you to stay away from alex because he is mine" she fumed"even though na mag papakasal kami and almost 24/7 kaming magkasama?" I smirked as I see her face fumed in anger.
"AKIN SYA" she yelled "and you stay away from him bitch or I will end you" she threatened pointing a finger at my face.
"no you listen HERE" I walk closer to her as she backs up, coward. "you stay the fuck away from me." I spoke
"pero kung hindi, sisirain ko yang peke mong ilong at puputukin ko mga dede mong balloon am i clear?" she nodded as fear covers her eyes."now be a good doggy and get the hell out, bitch" I said as she run towards the door but before heading out she looked at me "makakarating eto kay xander!" she grunted at umalis na sya after nyang ibagsak ang pinto
"makakarating eto kay xander" I mocked walking back to the living room for me to continue reading.
not long after, the door opened I looked up from the book to see alexander holding a plastic bag and his suitcase as he untie the buttons from his suit.
"may pagkain tayo dito dala ni mama, dumaan sya kanina" he muttered as he removed his shoes. "sorry di ako nakapag luto di ko alam na maaga ka pala uuwi" I apologized standing up and grabbing the things from his hand I put his suitcase sa sofa and yung plastic bag na may laman na pagkain sa dining table.
he followed me sa kitchen as I grab some plates and spoon and fork, "it's fine buti nalang nag padala si mama ng pagkain" he said helping me sa pag hain ng lamesa.
we sat down and started eating, his mother's adobo is amazing kakaiba mag luto, masarap! she also cooked us some fried chicken.
"nga pala" he started swallowing the food sa bibig nya "sabi ni trisha dumaan daw sya dito tapos pinaalis mo rin naman, totoo ba yun?" he continued as he looked at me.
I rolled my eyes "what a lie sinabihan nya ako ng kung ano ano tapos sya yung nag palalabas na victim dito" i muttered and continue eating my food.
"liz" he called "what?" I questioned "tell me the truth" he said calmly while looking at me I just rolled my eyes at him.
anong gusto nya sabihin ko? na inaway ko si trisha? ayoko mag sinungaling noh ako pa mapapahamak dito.
"kung maniniwala ka naman rin sakanya edi wag ka na mag bother mag tanong" I played with my food, I lost my appetite because of someone named trisha.
trisha pangalan iisa naman sya parang baliw.
"hindi naman ako nag tatake ng sides, gusto ko lang naman malaman kung ano nangyari sabi nya sinaktan mo sya" i chocked on my drink, bruha talaga sya!
"sinaktan?! anong sinaktan pinagsasabi nya" rolling my eyes once again, gusto ko saksakin yung babaeng yun gamit etong tinidor na hawak ko
"mali yun liz ha? lalo na bes-" "stop with the nagging, why would I hurt someone lalo na sa di ko pamamahay?! even though na sinaktan nya ako sa mga salita nya di ko parin sya sinaktan!" I shouted standing up, I dont want to waste my time here.
a hand grabbed my forearm stopping me from walking out of the dining room "liz sorry okay?" he said "let go cole" I muttered releasing myself from his hold.
I heard him sigh, "mom invited us to charity event tomorrow" I looked at him as if he was crazy.
"wala akong damit bakit ngayon mo lang sinabi?!" I panicked, I dont want to make his parents be unimpressed with me, I dont care sa ibang tao I just want to impress his parents even though na fake lang lahat na ito.
"kakasabi lang kanina okay? plus i'll call the stylist tomorrow don't worry" I nodded my head and walk upstairs towards my room.
i'm angry not because of him telling me that we have an event attending tomorrow, I am angry at myself sa kanina.
syempre kakampihan nya bestfriend nya, normal lang yun lalo na five years silang magkakilala syempre yung bond nila walang makakasira.
pero yung way na sinabihan ako ni trisha na layuan si alex dun rin ako nagagalit kasi, gusto ko rin layuan si alexander pero parang ayaw ng mundo.
I buried my head on my pillow and groaned. itulog ko nalang lahat ito.
