Arrange Marriage

Chapter 1

Mikhael's POV

I was sitting in my office at my house while reading new papers when my phone rang and I immediately looked at it.

"Babe, pwede ka bang pumunta dito sa bahay?" Jaz texted me.

"I'm all alone kasi eh, I need you by my side, please?" she added.

"I'm on my way" My short response to her.

"Okay babe, ingat ka" I was about to stand up when my phone rang. Johan's calling me, I answered it immediately.

"Dude Xylo tayo, sagot ko na, g kaba? Tagal ka na naming hindi nakikita e payag ka na. I'm with Collie and Gian"

"I'm sorry guys, I can't right now, Jaz texted me she said she needed me; maybe next time" I respond.

"Ay ganon ba, sige next weekend ha kapag ikaw hindi sumipot kakalimutan ka na namin" Johan said while laughing and I laughed as well.

"Deal, I'll even give you a car if I don't show up" I replied to her.

I immediately placed the newspaper on my table and got my car keys and closed my office door. I was walking in the hallway when my mom called me.

"Mikhael, where are you going?" Mom asked me with a confused face.

"I'm going to Xylo with my friends, Ma" I replied while smiling.
Mom held my hand and said,

"You're big na anak ko, parang kahapon lang ang liit-liit mo pa, ngayon pa gala-gala ka na" mom said while holding my hands and laughing. I chuckled and kissed my mom on forehead.

I told her I have to go because my friends might be waiting for me. Palabas na ako ng bahay nang makasalubong ko si dad sa pintuan kasama ang kuya ko kaya dali-dali akong napayuko at binati siya.

"Good morning, dad" I said habang nakayuko ako.

"Saan ang punta mo, Mikhael?" Dad said while kuya's looking at me.

"Pupunta ako ng Xylo papa, kasama ko mga kaibigan ko" I lied, my whole family have no idea that I have a relationship with Jaz, I felt guilty that I lied to mom.

"Xylo? Mikhael, you're always leaving, why don't you be like your older brother who helps me run our company?" Dad said with a calm voice.

I know dad can't raise his voice on me dahil papaano, mahal niya ako kahit ganito ako. Mabait si dad, ngunit palagi niyang iniisip ang company namin kaya't madalas ay hindi mo ito matatanaw sa loob ng mansyon namin. While on the other hand, My mother chose to stay in our mansion and rest because she went to a lot of company to work with in the past weeks.

"Kuya can handle it, papa. You can't rely on me" I respond. Dad sight and walked away. Kuya looked at me and tapped my shoulder. I know dad can't really rely on me lalo na't wala akong ibang ginawa sa buhay kun'di ang gumala.

when my dad and I finished talking, I immediately went to the carport and got into the car that my brother gave me as a gift for my birthday. My brother loves me so much, that's how he shows his love and being his older brother to me.

I immediately went to Jaz's house and when I got there, I immediately parked my car in his garage. I got out of the car and locked it, before I knocked on the door, Jaz immediately opened it and hugged me tightly.

"Babe, I missed you" Jaz said, and grabbed her chin and kissed her on forehead.

"I missed you too" I replied while hugging her.

"Oh halika pasok na tayo, kumain ka na ba?" Jaz said while smiling and I smiled back at her.

I love Jaz, she's very clingy and caring to me, she's my first girlfriend, but she's not my first love. I spent my time with her watching movies non-stop and I've noticed the time, it's getting late so I have to go home immediately before dad look for me. At this age, may curfew pa rin ako.

While Jaz's hugging me, I held her hands and told her that I have to go, she knows that I have a curfew kaya pinagba-bawal ako late umuwi ng bahay. Jaz took me outside the house, I kissed her on the forehead before getting into the car but before I got, in she held my hand. She was going to kiss me on the lips but I avoided it, she was shocked of how I reacted.

"I'm sorry, Jaz, I'm not ready" I replied and went inside the car and drove off.

While driving, I remembered how I acted earlier. Jaz and I haven't kiss even though she's my girlfriend for 7 months, I prevent myself from kissing her because I have a high sex tolerance. Jaz doesn't have an idea that I have what man's have down there, yes I know what you're thinking.

When I arrived at the house, I parked my car right away but before that, I noticed that there's a car parked in front of our house that made me confuse. I walk towards it and look at the plate license but I really have no idea whose car is that so I went inside the house. When I opened the door, there's a couple of guard standing in our living room entrance, I ignored it and was about to head to my room when dad calls me.

"Oh Mikhael, nandito ka na pala, halika dito ipapakilala kita sa kanila" nagtataka man ako kung sino sila ngunit winalang bahala ko na lamang ito at lumapit sakanila.

"Mr. Arcallana and Mrs. Arcallana, meet my daughter, Mikhael" that surname seems familiar but I ignored it, I bowed my head towards them but Mr. Arcallana offered his hand so I offered my hands.

"Mikhael, me and your mom works with them, Mr. Arcallana is my greatest friend" dad said habang nakaakbay siya dito. Palihim kong tinitignan si Mrs. Arcallana dahil tila may kamukha ito ngunit hindi ko ito maalala. Habang nakatingin ako sakanya ay tinakip ako ni dad sa balikat.

"Oh halika Mikhael at pauwi na sila, samahan mo akong ihatid sila sa labas"

hinatid namin sila sa labas at nag paalam kami nang maayos. When they left, dad and I immediately went inside.

"Have you eaten, Mikhael?" Dad asked and I turned to him.

"Yes, dad, I've already eaten" I lied.

"Oh is that so?, sige mag pahinga ka na" dad said and tapped my shoulder.

When I got to my room, I immediately thought of taking a shower so I could rest but before I could enter the bathroom, my phone rang. Jaz texted me

"Nakauwi ka na ba?"

"Yeah, minute earlier. I'll take a shower muna" I replied and throwed my phone to the bed.

After I finished taking a shower, I blower my hair down so it could dry quickly. Then I immediately lay down on my bed, I was about to close my eyes to sleep when I receive a notification on my phone and I took it. It was Jaz, I completely forgot that she was talking to me.

"Tapos na akong maligo" I replied.

"Mikhael, do you really love me?" Jaz replied to me so I raised my eyebrow while typing.

"What do you mean?"

"Earlier, I was about to kiss you but you avoided it, pinipilit mo lang ba akong mahalin kasi mahal kita?" Jaz replied, I feel my heart in being crushed because I imagine her saying that in front of me.

"Jaz, I love you, so much. But I'm sorry of how I acted earlier, hindi pa ako ready" I replied.

"Hindi ready saan? Mikhael, madali lang naman yon bakit hindi mo magawa" Jaz replied and I can feel like she's crying right now.

"I'm sorry Jaz" I replied and turned off my phone so I won't receive any notifications at all. I was just staring at the ceiling and there, I found myself sleeping.
