The Unwanted Marriage

TUM - 28

Kringgg! Kringgg!

Kringgg! Kringgg!

I heard my phone keep ringing ang aga-aga sino bang tatawag ng alas kwatro ng umaga? I frowned and stretched my body while reaching my phone on the table beside my bed.

I keep blinking my eyes while unlocking my phone. The call ended at nakita kong may tumatawag na naman. My blurry eyes becomes more clear and I saw my husband's name on my phone.

I immediately answered him and opened my camera. "Kanina pa kita tinatawagan, bakit hindi ka sumasagot?" Pambungad niyang tanong.

I scratched my eyes and fixed my baby hairs. "I.. Just woke up I'm sorry, 4 AM pa lang po rito." I saw his mouth shaped 'o' and he chuckled.

"Sorry babe." I yawned and lay sided para hindi mangalay ang kamay ko. "It's okay," I smiled at him at napansin ko na puro dugo ang noo niya at nakasuot pa siya ng mask.

"Why are you looking like that? Bakit puro dugo 'yang mukha mo?" Nag aalala kong tanong sa kanya. His eyes looks so tired, parang hindi pa ata siya nakakatulog.

Agad niyang pinunasan yon at tumingin kung saan at ngumiti. "Ahh. Kakalabas ko lang ng operating room." He smiled at someone at nakipag apir pa.

"Who is that?" Joshua tend his attention to me again and smiled while looking down, dahil sa angle ng cellphone niya. "My co-doctor. Why? It's not a girl don't worry," He laughed.

"Did you eat already? Matagal ka atang nasa operating room. Matulog ka mamaya ha." Pag papaalala ko sa kanya dahil mukhang puyat na puyat na siya.

"Okay doctora bea," I laughed and giggled.

Lumipas ang ilang minuto ay nakatingin lang siya sa akin at ganoon lang din ang ginawa ko. He keep pouting his lips while teasing me.

"Did I disturb your sleep?"

"Yes. You're always disturbing me."

"Ouch. Your husband is hurt."

"I think deserve," He laughed at tumayo na sa pag kakaupo niya. I saw him keep bowing his head at bumabati sa bawat taong nakakasalubong niya.

I saw his door at alam kong opisina niya 'yon. Ipinatong niya ang cellphone niya sa lamesa niya at ipinaharap sa kanya.

He started to unbutton his uniform at hinubad niya ang damit niya habang nakatalikod sa akin. Nag palit siya ng sando at saka kinuha ulit ang cellphone niya para makahiga na siya sa sofa niya.

"Ahh..." I heard him moan while fixing himself. "I'm so tried today,"

"Then sleep," Ngumuso siya sa akin at tumawa. "Patutulugin mo nalang ako agad? Wala bang goodnight kiss jan?"

I saw his eyes faded as he keep laughing in my screen. I miss him already. "Joshua.."

"Hmm?"

"I miss you," I cupped my cheeks as if I'm still a maiden and Joshua is courting me. "Eh? Why are you hiding your pretty cheeks," He is so goofy!

"Don't you miss me?!"

"Of course, I miss you too, look." I saw his wrist and I saw my gift for him. "I'm wearing your love. This is your gift for me right?" I nodded. "I'm always carrying your love."

"How about you? Are you carrying my love already? I hope it's a girl tho." He looked up and scratches his chin.

Ha? Di ko ma gets. Anyways. "Maaga akong aalis mamaya, maybe I'll call you later night nalang? Is it okay?" He frowned.

"I'm going to call you later, don't stress yourself so much, 'wag kang i-inom ng maraming alak, don't sleep late, drink your vitamins, more water," Ano ba' to? Bakit parang naging doctor ko naman ata siya.

"Okay... Doctor Joshua? Goodness why are you acting as if you were my doctor."

"Beacuse I'm a doctor?"

"No. You're my husband." Tumawa siya habang tinuturo ang sa camera niya. "Well. Your handsome husband is also a doctor. We can't help that."

"Tsss. Do what you want." Sasagot pa sana siya pero biglang may kumatok sa pintuan ko. "Sweetheart, Excuse for a second."

"Where are you going? Maaga pa jan ah."

"Someone is knocking..." I whispered through my phone. "Check it first, 'wag kang bukas nang bukas ng pintuan sa kwarto mo."

"Wait lang ha. I'll check it." I tightened my bath robe before standing up and wore my bunny slippers. Sinilip ko muna sa butas ng pintuan and I saw a random girl in there.

I slowly opened the door and I saw her shocked but she smiled at me. "Oh! I'm sorry! I think I knocked the wrong room. Hehe." I observed her appearance.

She is not that tall as mine. Short brown hair. Wearing her contact lenses, and I smell a reek of an alcohol from her mouth.

She has small lips, rounded eyes, and pretty cute nose. I believe that she is older than me based on her skin texture, I'm not being a judger or what, but this is based on what am I seeing.

"I see... It's okay miss." I was about to shut my door pero hinarang niya ang paa niya at hinigit ang kamay ko. "I think I know you,"

Lasing ba siya?

"M-Miss please let my hands go." Pinipiglas ko ang kamay ko sa kanya. But she pierced more her nails on my wrist.

"Oh.. I see! Kilala nga kita!"

"Miss, I don't know you! Please let go!" I saw another girl who's having her own two body guards on her back.

"Kunin niyo siya." That woman commanded at agad nilang hinila ang babae mula sa pag kakahawak sa akin.

"Ahhh! Let me go!" She wailed.

I checked my wrist and it's already red. Tumingin ako nang masama sa babaeng kaharap ko at panay sigaw pa rin siya, onti nalang ay magkakaroon na ng iskandalo rito.

"Ano ba! Ilayo niyo na 'yan dito!" The woman with her fierce eyes, heart shaped lips, and has a super pale skin commanded again.

They dragged the woman somewhere at narinig kong tumawa ang babaeng nasa tabi ko. "Tss." She chuckled. "Don't worry about her miss, she is crazy,"

"Do you know her?"

"Yes. She is my assistant. And she is kinda crazy," She whispered at me while looking down at my chest. I saw my cleavage showing kaya agad kong tinakpan ang dibdib ko.

Her mood immediately changed and she looked away. "Her name is Cali, if she showed up again, don't listen to her at all, she is ruining everyone's relationship,"

Cali? I don't know someone's whose name is Cali.

I saw her already walking away. "H-Hey! What's your name?!" She just waved her pretty hands and I saw her long tatoo engraved on her arms.

Denace? Or Denise?
