Marriage Contract

Gawd! Adrian

Co worker:"Hey, did you see the movie starring Ryou Saji comes on the air today, doesnt it?"
Co worker 2:"I set a timer to record it, I went to see the movie, and it was awesome!"

Since I met Ryou, I notice people talking about him all the time, whenever I turned on the TV, I would alwats see him on the program somewhere, I realized that was really famous.

Maybe thats why, I felt like we see each other everyday, even though he doesnt come home often, however... The Ryou I see on TV is totally different from the real Ryou I usually talk to. Yet, even though differences are normal, its also true that I feel sad about it.

Co worker 3:"Ryou Saji is so hawt! Do you think he has a girlfriend?"

A girlfriend...

I couldnt admit that he was actually married... Even more, I definitely couldnt say that he was married to me, just as I felt like running away, Adrian came up to me.

Adrian:"Frayco, do want to have lunch with me?"
Alexis:"Adrain..."

From the anxious look on his face, I could tell that he was concerned about me as I shied away from the subject about Ryou.

For a moment, I mistakenly thought tha he would ask me about Ryou's marriage... I was touched by his natural kindness, then nodded with a smile.

******

At the company cafeteria, I sit across a table from Adrian. Immediately, Adrian began to talk.

Adrian:"H-hey Frayco, what do you mean by married to him?"
Alexis:"Uhm..."
Adrian:"First of all, where did you meet him? You didnt kniw him from before did you?"
Alexis:"Well, actually... Ryou fell off a bridge into a river a few days ago, and then... When I tried to help him get out, I almost drowned insted."
Adrian:I-I-I didnt know that..."
Alexis:"Then... Maybe because I helped he asjed me to marry him."
Adrian:"Even so, that doesnt mean you have to help, neither marry him."
Alexis:"Maybe not, but..."

Actually, we already submitted our Marriage Registration Form, that means my officially married to him... But I cant tell this to Adrian.

I cant tell this to the man, that really cared about me, and gets so angry, in my defense... I felt sorry for Adrian.

Adrian has genuinely cared about me from the time that we first met... But why does he care so much...?

Adrian:"Frayco, you're hiding something from me."
Alexis:"Oh..."
Adrian:"I know you, I've been watching you is it something you cant tell me?"

I cant tell him about my marriage! I-if I tell him the truth, he would either get angry or hate me, when I think about that, I cant bring myself to tell him.

Adrian:"Please... Tell me, I cant pretend that I domt know anything."

He keeps asking me about what happened, with a grave expression... Finally, I couldnt help but tell him about my situation.

I sighed...

Alexis:"Uhm... Do you remember those guys from the loan company, who came to my place before?"
Adrian:"Oh yeah, was everything fine after that?"
Alexis:"Probably... Well, I finished paying them back."
Adrian:"Y-You did? But... Didnt you say your debt was about $500,000?"
Alexis:"Yes I did, Ryou lent the money to me..."
Adrian:"What did you say?!"
Alexis:"And he asked me to marry him in exchange... I will pay the money for sure... But fow now..."

Immediately, Adrian stood up, I wondered if he was mad, or was fed up with me, then I looked up, and he suddenly grabbed my arm.

Alexis:"A-A-Adrian! What are you doing?"
Adrian:"Come with me."

I was speechless as Adrian dragged me out of the company cafeteria.
