Her Unexpected Marriage (English)

I QUICKLY got out of the Taxi when I arrived in front of the building where Roven, my boyfriend of over a year, works. He texted me, saying we were going out, he just told me I should just go to his office because he had some things to do.Roven is a Human Resource in the company he works for. I met him when I went with Andrea, my friend, to a bar. I don't know why he just came up to me and asked my name, that's where it all started until I realized that I love him.I entered the building with a smile. I saw the wide ground floor and those employees were busy going back and forth while holding various papers.How many days has Roven not shown me? That's why I didn't think twice about going to see him when he told me to come here because I felt like he was getting cold towards me for reasons I don't know. He rarely texts and calls me these past few days.I smiled at the employees. Some people here already know me because Roven has brought me to this place several times. I felt excited

"HUH! Uncle and Aunt are going to MARRY you to his friend's son? OMG! Seriously, Miles?" Andrea's violent reaction when I told her what my parents and I had talked about last night kept me awake. Who can sleep if you know that you are going to get married without your consent?We were outside the company while eating lunch.I nodded sadly to confirm what I said. "They're crazy enough to do that, Andrea. Just because of that damn f*cking curse that's still in the era of people who believe in it. Hello! We're in the year 2022 and we're not living in the '90s. The curse is no longer fashionable," I ranted.Andrea looked at me seriously and then laughed. I raised an eyebrow at her. "I'm sorry, Miles. I can't help but laugh every time I hear that curse. It seems that your family has been left behind for believing in that old ritual. But in reality, they also have a point in another part." She got serious. "You're going thirty, a few months from now. Your parents are old enough so maybe they

ARE THE words that came from my mouth right? I was relieved when my thoughts returned to normal and I remembered everything I said while we were on our way to the hospital. Dad is currently in the emergency room and he's being examined by doctors.I washed my palms over my face. To this day I still blame myself for what happened to Dad. If only I hadn't answered him like that, maybe everything wouldn't have led to this. My heart is full of anxiety and fear now because of what could happen to him and I will continue to blame myself if something bad happens to him.I felt Mom next to me. He gently patted my shoulder and hugged me. "Miles, what happened to your Dad is not your fault. Don't blame yourself," Mom said calmly.I faced her. "Mom, I can't help but blame myself. It's my fault, if I had only agreed to what Dad wanted, everything wouldn't have been fine now," I answered crying."Hija, it's not your fault what happened to Wesley," said Aunt Mandy. I felt her gentle tap on my shoul

I STILL can't believe that in just a few days I'm going to marry Zandy, the man—that gay guy who stole my boyfriend. It seems like just yesterday that my life was quiet and in an instant, it was disrupted when Zandy came into my life. Is this a dream? I never thought that I would marry the person who stole my boyfriend. Great! Is this how fate plays out? Is this what Andrea is talking about, that game of insidious fate? Well! In that case, I'll play along. I've already started so I'll just finish the game that fate wants."Wow! You look so gorgeous, hija," Aunt Mandy complimented me when I measured the gown she had made at a well-known bridal boutique in Manila. If I'm the only one who can follow, it's okay with me to just marry us into a casual wedding. Less cost and another thing is that this is not a wedding of two people who truly love each other. It's just a marriage on paper.I tried to smile. I turned to Zandy who was on the sofa holding the magazine he had been looking at for

MOM and Dad approached me to take me to the waiting groom who was ahead and was waiting for my arrival. Zandy's handsome face had no expression, I didn't even know if he was happy or he was also cursing this day.Maybe I should just think that the groom waiting for me is the person I love and not Zandy who stole my boyfriend."I'm happy for you, Miles. Finally, we're here in the dream scene of my life. To lead you to your groom," dad whispered but it was enough for me to hear."Your father and I are very happy because finally the curse on you will be broken and you will have a family," mom said, almost making me laugh. I also want to be happy for them but I don't know how.Until now, does mom still think it's a curse? I don't know what to think of them every time they mention that curse. That was one of the reasons why I was forced to do this thing. I'm annoyed and honestly, I have a grudge against them but it's because of dad that I try to accept what's happening.I turned to the two
