Look woman I never begged to be your husband, you gave me that opportunity” Min Jun yelled. Mei Xing a 22 year old and the only daughter of multi-billionaires is diagnosed with cancer but doesn’t want to go through chemotherapy, with only a year left to live, she wants to explore. Min Jun a jobless 23 year old, finds himself a jackpot and agrees to be her contracted husband for the money and all the benefits of being with a billionaire’s daughter. EXCERPT: “Will you marry me?” Mei Xing asked a stranger she met walking on the streets. “What did you just say?” he said and was about to walk away. “I will pay you, a hundred thousand dollars, if you be my husband for a year” she said. “A year?” he asked and she nodded. She scanned through her wardrobe and wore a flowery dress, it wasn’t summer but by summer she might be too sick to wear it. “You only live once, more like a year," Min Jun finally arrived in jeans and a polo, “A summery dress in fall” he said as he took his seat. “The deal is I get fifty thousand dollars before we start the arrangement, then after the wedding I get the other half” Min Jun asked and Mei Xing nodded in approval. “You just have to be with me for a year, I probably won’t be alive by the end of the year” she joked. “Do you have some kind of transferable deadly disease. Covid?” he asked her. “No just cancer” she assured. “So I’m going to be free in a year and you'll be dead” he narrated.
View MoreSince my arrival, Min has dropped subtle thing around the hiuse that made my life easier. He'll bing new flowers everytime the old one die, turn of my monitor any time I forgot to do tht, close the blinds so the sun doesn't affect my sleep, put my fully chsrged phone by my bedside. Lemon in water covered with lids, replacing the toothpaste when it finished and notes stating specfically where he went. Turns out he works at Bar and Din, he was only called in when there was a food emergency, other than that, he worked three days in a week. I pretended to not care but slowly it was getting to me. I went o the fridge for breakfast and there was a note in the fridge, it was attached to a food container. I read the note and brought out the food. It was chicken soup and there was a lot of chicken chunk in the soup, it looked yummy. he must have noticed my unwillingness to eat solid foods. I wanted to make you breakfast, please do not refuse, it's yummy and it has chicken in it. I reheate
I slowly open my eyes, blinking softly as I tried to adjust my eyes to harsh overhead light. I looked around and discovered I was in the hospital and someone was sleeping in a chair beside me. I tried to remember how I got to the hospital because the last thing I remember was getting drinks with Soo-Jin. She was the one sleeping in the chair beside my bed, i needed to ask her how I got here. I called out to her but my voice was sore and barely audible. I tried to sit up and that was when I realized I was hooked up to various tubes and monitors. Panic creeps in as I start to wonder what happened to me. The monitor catches on to my panic and started beeping loudly. The sound woke up Soo-Joo who looked confused but in seeing me went to call for help. A nurse rushed into the room and assured me that everything was alright and I was receiving treatment, I calmed down a little but I had a lot of questions. One was how I got here and what I was doing here. I hope it wasn't the cancer sympt
The rush of cold night air made me realize how cold it was but I had to put a face to the voice and make sure my subconsciousness was wrong but she was right.When Min heard his voice, he turned to look at me and was surprised and shocked."She's the wife? Have I lost everything?" The girl asked not bothered that I knew their secret. She walked away angrily, leaving Min to face me."Mei what are you doing here?" he asked."I could ask you the same but I am not," i replied."It's not what you think," he said."The famous line, everyone uses that line when they get caught," i tell him. "I also heard your little conversation in the restaurant," I informed him."How much of the conversation did you hear?" he asked."Enough to connect the lines and know that the friend you told me about was you. You weren't even trying to be discreet, it
The next morning, I woke up and felt really sore and tired. I turned to pick up my phone but it wasn't there. I checked the time and realized it was 10 AM, it wasn't so bad. I tried to get out of bed but it was quite painful. I laid there for wo minutes and remembered the previous. After the first time, it became a lot less painful, it was fun. I smiled and remembered when Min took me to the bath and we just soaked in there before we came back into the room.He changed the sheets, took the stained sheets to the laundry and came back. He grabbed ine of his hoodie and made me wear it, it was comfortable and it smelled like him, I got to be in his clothes and also got to sleep with his hands wrapped around me.I knew I had broken a clause in the contract but we both agreed to it and I already him the full price for accepting the contract and he didn't leave, he chose to stay with me. I softly called out to Mi n but got no reply.I
It had been a week since I made dinner for Min and since then, he has been trying to impress me. He bought me the cutest flowers, carried me home after our run and helped when i told him I wanted to try new dishes."Let's play dress up," Min suggested."Why will we want to do that?" I asked him."Can you just agree, it's something in my bucket list," he replied."I have a feeling you are lying. You made fun of my bucket list and suddenly you have yours. How is that possible?""In this world, we'll get ready in different room and rate each other's outfit," Min said. he went into the wardrobe, grabbed his attire and left the room. I barely got a glimpse of his clothe but I knew there was milk and black. There were basic colours and I could work with them. I walked into my wardrobe and picked my outfit.I settled on a spaghetti strap dress. The dress stopped above my knee and was l
I should have trusted my instincts and not do what Min asked me to do but I wanted to prove that I was teachable. I pushed my body forward and nose dived into the pool. I felt strong hands pull me to the surface."Are you okay?" Min asked."Do I look okay?" I asked him. I pulled my hand from his and found my way out of the pool. "Maybe sharks are really dangerous and there's no need to swim with them," I said as I walked out of the pool to our apartment. I didn't stop walking until I was in the apartment, in the bathroom and brushing my tongue. I knew a swallowed a lot of swimming water. What's worse is the amount og things that could be in the water. The possible pee, the chemicals, the sweat. Everything was in my stomach. The thoughts of it made me gaga but that was all I did, gag, there was no vomit.I stopped washing my tongue after a while and went to take a quick shower, washed my hair and left the bathroom. Swim lessons were ov
Min waited patiently behind the door and it made my choice easier, if he kept on bugging me to come outside, then he would have brought the big but he let me come out on my own. I unlocked the wardrobe and put my head out of the door. I found Min sitting on the bed and staring at me. Was he amused by my justified reach of bugs? I stepped out of the wardrobe when the coast was clear and looked at him. "What did you want to show me? I asked him. He brought his hand from behind him and I was tempted to run back into the wardrobe but I was trusting him. he brought out a bouquet of daisies and handed them to me. "Sorry for being so annoying earlier, I should have just explained it without yelling at you and pouring all my information on you," he apologized. I sniffed the daisies and hugged him. "Thank you for the flowers and the apology, it means a lot and I know I can be a lo sometimes but this is my first interaction with others. i grew up with my thoughts stuck in my throat, so i
The voice sounded familiar but i didn't know whose it was, Min turned around to be met with Quan. "Good morning," Min said and shifted his weight from one leg to another. I guess i was becoming heavier. I should have come down but I held on tightly, just to be safe and also not granting him permission to drop me, He made me go on this run now he must suffer the consequences alone. "Is everything okay?" Quan asked me. "What do you mean?" I asked. He looked at me and my position and I understood what he was implying. "went on a run with Min and my legs gave up on me, he made me run, now he has to carry me around," i explained. "Oh," he laughed and nodded in understanding. He opened the door leading to the lobby and I thanked him on behalf of I and Min. He walked with us to the elevator and we went to our floor together. I bade him farewell and did my possible best to input our password into the door and walk in. "You should have just let me open the door," Min said as he put me on t
Someone was actually listening to me, he cared that I wanted to ride a cart an he got me to ride in a cart when I was having a bad day, making tough decisions didn't seem bad now that it was yielding positive results. It didn't feel bad that he was not in love with me, at least he cared, listened and wanted to make me happy. "That was fun," i said to Min as we paid for our grocery. "I am happy I could make you happy, just a little gift to my pretty wife," he said and I blushed. He grabbed the two light bags and we walked out of the mall. "Should i help you?" I asked him. "No, it's fine, they are really light, we only got four things," he reminded me. The look on the receptionist's face when we wheeled in our empty cart to the checkout, we used the self pay to avoid any issue. "I'll call a cab," I offered. "No babe, let's enjoy the evening sun, it's still bright and safe," he said. "But the walk is long," I lamented. "No really, and I'm going to carry everything, you do
