Chapter 18

Primrose


"What's wrong with that? You're my wife, Primrose," he pouted.

I rolled my eyes at him while the others were pressing their lips, watching him throw a tantrum. Why does he keep on claiming me as his wife? Well, I know I really am his wife, but we know the reason for our marriage.

"And may I remind you that only those under the E Entertainment know that, Loey," I replied calmly. "We can't expose our relationship to others. We can't control them, you know. Please, I don't want to cause any rumors or dramas just because I'm married to an idol."

We can reveal it if I want to, but I don't want to take any more risk than I already do. Isa pa, lagi kong pinapaalala sa sarili ko na hindi permanente ito, na maghihiwalay din kami ni Loey kaya mas maganda na walang ibang makaalam pa na mag-asawa kami.

"Okay, fine," he crossed his arms, biting his lower lip.

I sighed.

Today's the music festival and he's pestering me to go there together. He wanted to accompany me, which I rejected. Kaya ko naman ang sarili ko. Isa pa maaga dapat silang pumunta roon para sa final rehearsal, at ayoko naman maghintay nang matagal doon.

"Come on Loey, stop being too clingy to Prim," Matt laughed. "You'll still see each other in the venue, man."

The guys couldn't help but tease him after that. I really wonder how they're taking it normally. I mean, they really make me feel important, that I was indeed their sister-in-law or whatsoever.

Ang dami na naman pumapasok sa isip ko! I told myself not to doubt them and to learn to trust them, to be more comfortable with them. Well, I'm already comfortable with them, especially when they do things for me—cooking and visiting me in my office even just for a minute.

"Si Sophie ang isa sa may performance, 'di ba? Ito ang second stage niya after her debut last week," Kuya Eros said suddenly.

I nodded, "Since she topped the charts, they requested her to join the festival."

Yes, Sophie finally got what she wanted! I'm really proud that she strives hard just to prove to us that she deserves to debut. I even focused on the preparation of her album's launch from PR to marketing just to see if everything's going smoothly. I wanted to give her what she deserves as an artist under the company, and as someone, I could consider as a friend now.

Siguro dahil sa SBG ay nagawa kong tawagin din siyang kaibigan. Mukha naman kasi siyang harmless. Isa pa, noong nakaraan din ay gumala kami, dahil hindi pa naman siya ganun ka-sikat ay malaya pa siya sa mga public places, pero may ibang kilala siya dahil sa ibang shows na sinalihan niya noon.

"I hope others will treat her right. I'm still worried," he replied, leaning back on the couch.

"What do you mean?" I asked, frowning.

He heaved a deep sigh, "Rookies will have a hard time, you see. There will be mistreatment and such when it comes to shows. Someone might sabotage her just to stop Sophie from gaining more fame or fans. I've heard that the producer of the festival has a history of being biased."

I clicked my tongue, "I'll take note of that then."

My father raised me as a fighter so that I can defend the people under me. I told him when I was still a child that I won't let others harm our people.

"You will not be just their boss, but you will also be their parent, Primrose. Treat them like a family you need to protect and do whatever it takes to let them achieve their dreams." I could still hear my dad's voice when he told me that.
