Arrange Marriage

Chapter 1

Mikhael's POV

I was sitting in my office at my family's mansion while reading new papers when my phone rang and I immediately looked at it.

Jaz
Babe, pwede ka bang pumunta dito sa bahay?

Jaz
I'm all alone kasi eh, I need you by my side, please?

You
I'm on my way.

Jaz
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 "You're big na anak ko, parang kahapon lang ang liit-liit mo pa, ngayon pa gala-gala ka na" 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, I grabbed her chin and kissed her on forehead.

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