Married

22

Sofia's POV

I locked myself inside my room.

I can't stop myself from crying. Why does this always happen to me?!

I let myself fall on to the bed.

I really thought he loves me now. I've never thought that he's up to something again. I can't believe I'm this stupid!

My sight was become more and more blurry. My chest hurts. It hurts so much!

Hearing all of that awhile ago..makes me feel so stupid!

What did I even do to them to make them hurt me this much?!

I hit my chest a couple of times. It really hurts! I feel like dying.

I heard someone knocking at the door. I wiped my tears and stood up. This might be Drake's parents. They might see me crying. I don't want them to worry about me.  

When I was about to turn the knob... "I'm sorry.." i heard Drake's voice from outside. He was the one who knocked. I instantly let go of the door knob. I place my ear close to the door so I could hear him clearly.

He's really here. He's really outside.

My tears started to fall again.

I leaned my back on the door.

"I'm really sorry...i'm so so sorry.." i kept hearing him. It was nearly unaudible. It was like he was just talking to himself.

"Please forgive me.. I'm really sorry... I love you..i love you so much Sofia." i broke down on the floor upon hearing that. I don't know what to believe anymore. I don't know if I can even trust him after what I've discovered.

I close my eyes shut.

I wanted the pain in my chest to stop. I wanted to end everything now. I hit my chest again.

I'm always getting hurt.

Pain

Pain

Pain...it was always pain. I always ended up being hurt. When will I become happy?

Drake's POV

"Move." i woke up when someone weakly kicked my right foot.

It took me some time to realize where I was.

I'm outside sofia's room. I fell as sleep waiting for her to open up her door and hear me out. I kept on knocking but she didn't opened the door.

"Sofia!" i instantly stood up to hug her. My tears were building up already. I can't loose her now. If I need to beg just to make her stay and marry me, I'll do it. I'll do everything for her to stay with me.

"I'm sor--"

"Let me go." she harshly removed my arms around her and looked at me. I was so shocked by that. I've never seen her like this.

"I still need to get my hair and make up done for the wedding." she said that coldly.

"You're still gonna marry me--" she look at me coldly.

"Don't get too excited. I'm marrying you because I've signed a contract and not because I have feelings for you or anything. Now, step aside. " she said. Contract?! What is she saying?
Am I still dreaming?
I didn't move. I'm confused.

"Fine. Let me tell you this. I am just here to save your family from bankruptcy if that's what you want to ask. Now, move." she said. Before pushing her way pass through me.
I can't believe it. I watch her climb down the staircase.

"You've heard it right brother. Our company is under a very big problem right now and we can only save it with Sofia's help. And don't you even think that she's still into you that's why she pursued this wedding... She doesn't have any other option. she'll only get her inheritance once you guys got married. " she said. She was already dressed. She is our bridesmaid. She looks so beautiful.

What are they talking about?

Am I being pranked here?

Why am I the only clueless person here?! Contract?! bankruptcy?! Marraige?! Inheritance?! Are we in some kind of a damn Movie?!

"Now move. You have to get ready. Let's just finish this off so you can get an annulment after." she said as she pushed me inside my room.

She looks so beautiful.

I can't stop myself from smiling. This all felt like a dream.

She's going to be my wife now.

"Cut that crap and wipe those fake tears. I should be the one crying right now. " she said the moment I held her hand guide her all the way to the altar. I didn't know I was actually crying! I wiped it all in an instant. I even saw my mom smiling at me. She looks so happy.. And so am I.

I was hurt, yes. But I couldn't care less. The thought of her being my wife starting today is just so overwhelming. I feel so happy. I can't contain my happiness. I just want to tell the whole world that she's already mine. The girl that I've first met in a bus. The girl who had woken up my sleepy heart. My first love. And now, my wife.

I've thought this all through. I would never sign for an annulment. Not now that she'd finally said she loves me too.

I'm helding on to it.

"You may now kiss the bride" the priest said.

We both look at each other as I remove the thin cloth hiding her beautiful face.

"I'm really sorry for everything, sofia. I know you'll find it hard to trust me again but one thing is for sure. I love you and it will never change. " I told her in a very low voice before kissing her.

It was just a short kiss but I promised to cherish it forever.

I look at her, a tear fell from her right eye. She wiped it immediately and look away. She looks so sad.

I've imagined her smiling beautifully at our wedding weeks ago but now, by looking at her, it makes my heart torn into pieces. All i can see is that, she doesn't like to be with me anymore.

The crowd clapped their hands and cheered.
