MIRABEL

I had the best first day at work all thanks to Beauty. We exchanged contacts and after office hours, we met up.

She wanted to shopping to get new clothes because she wanted to change her wardrobe. I would have refused but because I was enjoying her company, I followed her. We ended up having fun while shopping and she got me some matching slippers with her.

She said it was the start of our friendship and she prayed for me to not lose my job or she'd go crazy.

The thought of that made me a little sad but that motivated me to do so well so that Giveon wouldn't get angry. After his morning schedule and he left for whatever he had in the afternoon, he didn't return to work as he asked me to handle everything.

I didn't know what exactly to do but I was certain I tried my best. When I got home, I was feeling full as I ate some street food with Beauty before we went our separate ways.

"You look excited," Miranda commented, walking towards me with her walking stick.

I smiled at her,

    MIRABEL"This is wrong! What the fuck have you done? I asked for you to arrange them all accordingly to how it should be but somehow you managed to make it worse. The details is evident and all you have to do is arrange them like you do in school. What is wrong with you!" Giveon shouted at me, throwing the papers all in my face.I swallowed the knot that formed at the back of my throat. To say I was tired would be an understatement. I was more than tired. I was exhausted and frustrated. Since morning I've been going all over it and trying to fix it but it's like every time I present it to him, it just gets worse.I was holding myself from crying because I was close to crying. He was shouting and now I didn't know how to pick it all up and restart because I'd done it every way that I could. Would it make me a bad person that I was recording him while he shouted at me? After the third time that he shouted at me, I chose to record him."You are so dense and dumb. I can't even stand you.

    MIRABEL"Is it that you've never had a boyfriend or you don't want to have a boyfriend because I'm certain that lots of men would have wanted you." If only she knew my story but I didn't bother talking much about it. "I don't know. I just didn't have men lining up for me and besides I had lots of things to focus on so even if I did have, it would have eventually ended." I replied."That's true but now you are all set. You should try dating but then again don't take my words seriously and don't bother if you don't find the right person because trust me when I say that it's not worth it when you mean useless people." She sighed deeply. "Take me for instance. I still believe in love. I believe that the love I read in books and watch movies still exists and that's what I'm holding on to hence the reason I've chosen that until I see that love, I'm going to focus on the fun aspect and that's sex!" She cheered after her last word and I chuckled.I glanced at my wristwatch and in panic mod

    MIRABEL"Are you going to speak or should I force the words out of your mouth?" Firstly he was standing too close, secondly, he was whispering in my ears in a way that made me feel slightly uncomfortable. I've never been this close to a man before but somehow his presence made my heart beat faster than normal."My…" I began but he cut me off."You don't learn now, do you? I've told you to stop trying. Stop trying hard to get me to look at you but somehow you don't listen. It seems you love my attention so much, isn't that it?""I… that's not true," I replied, my heart beating so loud that I wondered if he could also hear the rate at which my heart was beating. "Then what is true Mira." I shuddered at the sound of his voice when he mentioned my name for the first time. He has always referred to me as a girl. I never thought hearing my name from his mouth would sound so good. "My skirt…. It…""Yes, your skirt is too short and it is barely covering your ass. Are you trying to seduce

    MIRABEL"Wait what!" Beauty screamed and I had to place my palm over her mouth, preventing her from making my noise as people were now looking in our direction.We were seated in front of a coffee shop close to the office. Since we were closed for the day from work, we decided to go there to speak as she noticed that I wasn't happy.The first question she asked me when she saw me was if I was fired to which I shook my head in response.She asked me what had happened and I honestly tried not to tell her but she wasn't going to let it be I couldn't yet tell her that he was my husband so I told her about the fact that he was my high school bully."You mean you went to the same school as him? I think he knows it's you and that's why he hired you and that's why he's still torturing you but why would he do that?"Before I could speak, she was already speaking again. "I can only think of two reasons. One, you offended him in the past and him badly or he likes you."I almost choked on my cof

    MIRABEL"Babe." The young lady called, now wrapping her arms around Giveon whose hand was firmly in his pocket now, still giving me a hard glare. "I asked a question, didn't I? Why am I not getting any response?""Who is she babe?" The blonde is asking instead, saving me from having to tell him to his face that I had to stay out of the house until night because I didn't want to see him. "She's the girl that lives with me." He replied, now referring me back to "the girl." But I don't take offense simply because I was starting to get used to it."Oh. The one who is supposed to be your wife?" She asked, scrutinizing me from head to toe that I felt like I should disappear at that moment. She knows he's married and is still around. Did he promise her marriage afterward? That he was going to get me to divorce him so that they would be together?As much as I wanted to conclude that she might be playing a huge role in the reason he wants my life miserable, I couldn't do that, not after wha

    MIRABEL"Josh!" Beauty called out, waving her arms behind me to someone I think she knows.I didn't bother to turn because I didn't know who it was. We were currently at the company career is for lunch. "Beauty." I heard the voice of the man named Josh and I still didn't turn. I could hear footsteps from behind me until I finally got the see the Face of the man who was now standing in front of our table.He was tall and that was the only thing I noticed because I didn't bother to look at his face while I devoured my food."When did you return from your leave and why didn't you tell me?" Beauty asked. They had both hugged earlier when he came and now she was back sitting while he stretched his arms to pull a chair towards our table so he could sit. "I resumed today. I wasn't supposed to but I had to since I didn't have anything to do." He answered."You are quite the hard worker, aren't you? Instead of using your whole leave, you decide to come to work. I have to give it to you Joshu

    MIRABELI sat quietly in the living room of my grandpa's mansion, playing Candy Crush on my phone while waiting for him. He sent a text Friday night asking to see me because he wanted to discuss it with me. Thankfully the time he chose wouldn't clash with my schedule with Beauty because we planned on visiting the mall today to get some things and also to bond more. It's been fifteen minutes since I arrived and he was yet to come. I didn't mind it though because there was still a lot of time for me. Finally, I followed footsteps, so I lifted my head to see my grandfather walking towards me dressed in black make kaftan. I stood up on my feet to go hug him. Although we didn't have any good relationship, that was how I greeted him still."Good afternoon Grandpa." "It's so lovely to see you here. How are you?" He asked. We were now seated on the couch. "In doing good.""How is it going with Giveon? I hope he's treating you well. How is work too? I hope it's going well too?" He asked.

    MIRABEL"Hey. What are you doing here?" I said to Josh, surprised to see him here this morning. Josh dressed just like on Friday when I saw him is claded in a two-piece black suit today with a file in his hand."Hey. I have some work with the CEO. Weren't you aware?" He asked, smiling at me. I shook my head before going through Giveons schedule for the day. "But you aren't on the schedule, or are you…" I trailed off when I read the word that was put in the abbreviation. "HOD design departments?" He flashed me a smile confirming it. "You got promoted?" I asked."Yes, this morning." He replied making me smile so hard. They explained why I wasn't aware. Over the weekend when I met with Beauty, he ended up joining us and that's how we bonded. It went naturally and we exchanged numbers too.I've been feeling good since Saturday after my grandpa and I spoke and on Sunday we went to visit my mom at the hospital. She was surprised to see her dad because she could swear that until she died

  • Married To My Bully   29. It gets worse

    MIRABELStarting from the beginning of today, I knew it would become chaotic. From him rejecting the coffee and asking me to get him some sweet beverage instead to him complaining about every work I did and asking me to redo them.I couldn’t even have lunch because I had work to do and he told me to have it done before 1pm so if I wanted to get it done without getting into trouble, I had to do as told even at the expense of my belly. Beauty called in sick today but I knew it was a lie.She had too much to drink and woke up late so she decided to act sick so as not to come to work today which meant she had no one to help me.I spoke to my professor asking for some help but he was yet to reply. Time difference also played a role in why he was yet to reply.It was exactly 1pm when Giveon returned to the office, his usual bland expression masked on his face. I stood up from where I went with the edited copy of the documents he asked me to look into. I followed behind him into his office.

  • Married To My Bully   28. The same circles again

    MIRABELFor some second, I thought it could be my imagination but I was wrong. It wasn’t my imagination. Giveon was kissing me and I didn’t know what to do because in all twenty-four years of living on earth, I’d never kissed a man before so it was new to me.“Kiss me back.” He groaned hoarsely, his voice making me shudder but I didn’t do as told as he continued to aggressively kiss me.“So you won’t kiss me right?” He pulled away, glaring at me and leaving me confused. What just happened? The man who promised me hell the day of our wedding had kissed me but it didn’t seem like he kissed me because he wanted to but for some reason I had no idea about. “You would have kissed him if I didn’t show up, wouldn’t you?” He uttered, his tone laced with venom making me frantic.”I…”“I saw how close the both of you were. You let him close. You wanted him. Don’t you dare deny it?” He pointed accusing fingers at me leaving me more confused than I already was because I had no clue what it was t

  • Married To My Bully   27. The event (II)

    MIRABELAfter he introduced me to Mr. Walter and his wife, Giveon kept his distance afterward and it wasn’t like it affected me because I was happy that he stood up for me.Thinking about it, he did that because he didn’t want anyone to know of the nature of our marriage. I didn’t fail to notice the look on the Face of the lady and I honestly liked it. The second half of the event continued and I could finally understand what was going on. The event focused more on the awareness of kids with eye problems and how expensive the treatment can be. They wanted donors that would help them with the money for it and I, in particular, was interested.Most kids in the orphanage were having issues with their eyes and there was a need for money to be able to cater for the kids. After that part, they took a break as usual.“I’m going to use the restroom,” I informed Giveon but he didn't seem to acknowledge so I left the restroom.After using the restroom, I made my way out only to meet Chris stan

  • Married To My Bully   26. The event (I)

    MIRABELChristopher James and Giveon Jameson were known names in the school. I have been hearing their names since I got admitted into the prestigious high school for only rich kids on scholarship.Although I’ve heard of them and seen them, my presence was never noticed by either of them until one day. That was the day that changed it all and I went from the girl who was barely seen to a well-known figure simply because Giveon Jameson took an interest in me not for the reasons you might think but because he saw me as the perfect person to make fun of.“Why are you so skinny? Here. Have some milk and cake and eat more vegetables and fruit.” Giveon dropped a cake, a small carton of milk, and a parfait for me on my table where I was having lunch. I looked at him with tears in my eyes because everyone was now watching and I felt so embarrassed. I didn’t want his food. I already had mine even if it wasn’t much.I had a toast in my food flask and a bottle of water with me and that should b

  • Married To My Bully   25. An old foe

    MIRABEL“You look gorgeous in this outfit. Damn. It reminds me of my younger days.” Miranda complimented, staring at me. I walked towards the standing mirror to take a look at myself. Dressed in a strapless sequin silver dress that fitted my body so well, accentuating my curves I hadn’t noticed had gotten bigger. From my mid-thigh, the dress had a slit until the end, revealing my not-so-very-long legs. I looked really good so I wondered if I was the one in the mirror because of the makeup and how good I looked. Miranda had done a great job preparing this dress for me and also assisting me with my makeup. For a girl my age, I didn’t have many pictures or videos of myself looking this good. Even on the day of my wedding, I didn’t look happy because I never wanted to get married to him. For some reason, I felt really good today and happy. “I’m sure he’d be blown out of his mind the seconds he sees you. You are lovely.” Miranda complimented again. “Thank you so much and you’ve done

    MIRABEL"Oh my goodness!" I screamed, jumping off the bed when I realized that I was late.It was past nine and I had just woken up. I dashed into the bathroom to quickly brush and bathe only to hit my arms against the door."Ouch!" I cried out in pain, feeling my arms stiffen for some second, and then cried out more when I realized that it's weekend and I wasn't supposed to go to work.How the hell did I forget this? I mentally groaned. Firstly, I slept too much and woke up past ten in the morning. It was the first of its kind since I started working for Giveon.I mentally thanked my stars as I realized that if it was during working days and I woke up this late, I wouldn't have bothered to go to work because Giveon would have kicked me out and fired me.Speaking of Giveon, how did I return home? I don't recall anything besides dancing with Sandra."Oh my goodness!" I voice out.My eyes widened in realization of what I had done last night. I was in Giveons arms. I don't recall that mu

    GIVEON JAMESON"Take care son and call us when you get home." My mom said."I will," I replied."Make sure to take care of her and be nice." She reminded me."Seriously mom?" I replied, feeling bored already because I knew what it was that she was doing. She was my mom and also one of those who knew how hard it was for me then to get my heart broken by a girl for the first time.It wasn't like we were ever together but I crushed on her. Everyone except her knew that but somehow she managed to break my heart without accepting me first. It's been five good years since I last saw her. Five years since I promised to never see her again and to hate her for shattering my heart. I remember the first time my parents told me about the arranged marriage, I told them I wasn't interested and turned them down.Every time they wanted me to settle down, I reminded them I was still young and I wasn't twenty-five years but she would tell me settling down early wasn't a bad thing.That was until my mo

    MIRABEL"You look beautiful every time I see you. How have you been?" Sandra asked me for the second time tonight as we settled on the dining table."I've been good Sandra, and you?" I asked with a smile on her face."I'm always looking good. What is working with your husband like? How are you catching up? I hope he's not being too strict on you forgetting you are his wife?" She asked, letting out a small laugh afterward."You know he can be like his father when he wants to be." She placed her hand on her husband's hand on the table and looked at him with a smile on her face. "My husband can be so strict when he's at work but behind all of that grumpiness, he's a big baby."I didn't fail to notice the smile on Giveons dad's face as he looked at his wife. It was evident that he was in love with his wife but I couple say the same for his son."It's going well. I'm managing well." I replied. "I hope you aren't hard on her Giveon." She was now speaking to her son who hadn't said a word t

    MIRABELIt took everything in me to be able to push him off me.I looked at him frowning. "Please, stop accusing me of what I'm not, and stop trying to touch me in ways that make you think I want it when I don't." "And she speaks. I wasn't the one who said I was distracted. It was you who got distracted seeing me with another. It's okay to admit that you are jealous." He countered."But I'm not." My voice almost failed me.He looked at me for some seconds as if thinking about something else to use against me but instead, when he opened his mouth to speak, he said something else. "There is a family dinner this Friday at my parent's place. They asked me to invite you so make sure to look your best and also don't do anything that will make me angry. You can leave."What? I mentally gasped. Could Giveon be bipolar? It was how he suddenly switched on me. One minute he was being too much and the next it was like he didn't care and my presence irritated him.
