Zenon's

"Honey! eat sweets para mabawasan yang init ng ulo mo!"

"Honey look! i bought new clothes for you"

"Did you like our future baby's room? do you think it's a girl or boy?"

"Honey! buy me some lemon tea, tinatamad akong tumayo eh"

I've been living in agony since she became my wife, she shouts every single time, utos siya ng utos, and she keeps calling me 'honey' for goodness sake i hate my life with her!

"You're drunk again?"

"Honey here, drink this pampa hang over"

she handed me a drink, it was a milk when i was expecting choco-berry like Keira always give to help me sober.

' it was milk '

tinabig ko yung hawak niya at nabasag yun, i don't care about that nor about her existence. She immediately responded, "What the hell?!" she began to show her true self, the one she doesn't let anyone to see.

"Anata ga sore o mōichido yareba watashi wa watashi ga sashihikaeru koto o yakusoku suru koto wa dekimasen" (if you do that again i can't promise i will hold back) she clearly meant that the next time i do that she will completely hurt me.

' what does she think of me? can't hurt a woman? tsk '

that's right, SHE'S A MONSTER

that's her true identity, she's a Kureijī Nihon no on'nanoko ( crazy japanese girl)

hinawakan niya ako sa panga at tinignan ng masama "Honey, i'm trying my best for you to like me, i want you to like me like no one else does so please cooperate hmm?" she calmly said but her eyes are ranging.

i removed her hand on my jaw "No one can ever replace her in my heart" i stood up, aalis nako dito tutal this whole marriage is a shit.

"as soon as i get back i want you to leave my house"

bigla siyang tumakbo papunta sakin, suddenly her face turned soft just like how i first saw her "No, i'm sorry okay? i won't do that again, please just let me stay Zenon" i was right

ngumisi ako at tinignan siya, her family is in great danger because of bankruptcy it's the reason why her family decided to use 'fixed marriage' so that they can start over again while consuming my family's money.

"Why do i have to do that Gwen? you're my wife by 'contract' and you have no rights to tell me what should i do kung hinuhuthutan mo lang ako ng pera" her face turned shocked.

that would mean "pambayad utang ka lang"

i whispered to her ear"That's why your parents sold you to me because your family owe me big time"

lumuhod siya habang umiiyak, her body is shivering due to over-crying, "i was a charge debt?" bulong niya habang umiiyak, well i need to give her some time to cry in sorrow and blame her parents tomorrow morning.

"By the time i come back tomorrow morning i wish not to see you or your belongings here in my house, be thankful, hindi kita kinaladkad palabas"

i left and let her cry all night long, i can't blame her, sino ba namang may gusto na ibenta ka ng mga magulang mo? pasalamat sila i didn't take her for granted and instead i tried our relationship, i tried my best to be a husband to her, pero anong magagawa nun? hindi ko siya kilala, we just met.But i gave her a chance.

i didn't hurt her like i did to Keira, napaka laki kong tanga para saktan siya, she loved me dearly, she took care of me, she gave me companion that Gwen never gave to me.

'bobo! '

"I would like to meet Gwen's parents, now" i called my secretary and made an appointment to her family's hospital, they own a hospital like ours, kaya ako ang napili nilang pagbentahan kay Gwen dahil pamilya din kami ng mga doktor at isa sa pinaka successful na kompanya sa pilipinas.

the first time i heard 'fixed marriage' it scared me, i know what it means and i terribly hate fixed marriage, i know someday there will be some parents who's willing to sell their child to grow rich or to get richer.

"Sir, you may go in" tawag sakin ng sekretarya nila, i got inside and saw him.

sitting in front of me is Gwen's dad, hindi na ako nagpa ligoy ligoy pa, "I request an annulment" Mr. Rice looked mad and started to raise his voice.

"Zenon! you can't just do that!" oh yes i can

he started it, might as well go with the flow

"Mr, i don't want to sound rude but you heard what I've just said and i'm not repeating myself " i looked at him confidently, i'm not scared about this stupid fixed marriage anymore.

' maybe adulthood made me stronger '

pinapasok ko ang lawyer na nirequest ko kay Various since their family owns a famous law firm.

"I already settled things with Gwen and lastly to you"

"You're wasting your time Zenon because there will be no marriage to be annulled!" i made sure to talk to him in a calm way but him? he's now shouting at me.

"Mr. Albert baka nakakalimutan niyong pera ko at pera ng pamilya ko ang hawak niyo ngayon?" sinimulan niya eh, i was trying to be nice!

natahimik siya at hindi na nakapag salita, "Allow me to explain first and make sure to listen carefully" i explained everything to him that even though Gwen and I are annulled, they will receive 300 million, para naman kahit naghiwalay na kami may pera na sila.

i brought the 300 million in cash to hand it to her father, nanlaki ang mga mata niya ng makita ito, "I-i m deeply sorry for my actions, i won't do such things in the future, forgive me Mr. Arsenic" he bowed to me.

i sighed because this is not the way i wanted, ayokong maka kita ng taong binibaba ang sarili para sa 'kin, "Stand straight and sign the papers, i have many things to do"

"oh right, sorry for waiting" hindi siya mapakali sa pag pirma ng mga papeles, kung hindi ko pa in-explain sakanya lahat tungkol sa annulment malamang huhusgahan na niya ang buong pagkatao ko.

pagkatapos niyang piramahan lahat yun tinago na nung lawyer, i was about to leave when he called me "Mr. Arscenic, would you like to have a drink with me?" he politely asked.

i smiled at him "I don't want to keep in touch with you or with your family Albert, i wish our paths won't cross again"

i left at their property, now i have nothing to do with them, good grief

umuwi ako at nag babasakaling umalis na si Gwen and hell i was right again, she left.

nag iwan siya ng sulat sa kama ko.

' i was not a good wife to you but you were always a good husband to me, don't worry i won't let myself to run to you again, i am truly distressed for what happened and at the same time thankful, if it wasn't for your aggressiveness and my insanity we could've not escaped this, thank you for freeing me and giving me the truth, i'm forever thankful. Gwen '

i smiled after reading her letter, it's her first time to accept her wrongs and hugging the truth, the one year with Gwen got me insane but man i learned a lot.

there's one thing i can say:

if i could change one thing, it would be proposing to the wrong woman.
