Chapter 11: My Woman

My Woman

"That's why I'm asking you. Why don't you answer it? You are very observant. Try and guess."

He stayed silent. His deep green eyes looked at me, making its way to my soul. It was hypnotizing. If I was just any normal girl out there, I would have given myself in. Surrendering myself to whatever He commands me to do.

But I am different. 

I stayed silent and gave him an eye to eye contact. It was like a staring contest. And I'm gonna win this crap. I won't give up unless he would. 

He'll give in soon enough. 

We stayed in that position for a couple of minutes. Water started to form into the ends of my eyes. Heck! I wanna close my eyes but I know he'll get what he wants if I give up now. I should think of ways to defeat him. But what--

ooh, I've got a foolish idea.

I inhaled deeply and started forming funny faces in front of him. 

I picked my nose, tried acting like a damn monkey, and even did a whacky style in front of him but his face was still blank. 

What the freaking hell! Is he some kind of statue!? 

Hm. Well then, I've got a second foolish plan.

I started making funny noises. The sound of the pig, lion, cat, and whatever comes to my mind. I even tried farting in front of him but I didn't dare to continue 'cause maybe poop will come out my damn anus.

It will be more embarrassing if it did happen.

I slightly slammed the table, annoyed. All of my annoyance faded when he blinked! "OMG, I win!" I shouted at him. 

HE LITERALLY BLINKED! I'm so happy! I just had a very great achievement! Yes! 

But still, damn him! I did many embarrassing things in front of him but it was like nothing to him. He didn't care and now, just slightly slamming the table could make him blink! He's playing with me!

"Some dust went in my eyes."

"Oh please, stop with the excuses. I win and you're not gonna change that." He wipes off the ends of his eyes and looked at me, his expression still the same as ever. 

"It isn't really a big deal, anyway."

"But it is for me! So tell me. Now." He sighed and stood up from his seat. He picked up the dirty dishes and put them in the sink. 

He approached me, his beautiful bewitching eyes never leaving mine. His hand resting on the table as his face went closer to mine.

"You," he paused. I could feel his breath on my face as he continued. "are my fiancé."

I inhaled sharply. My eyes opened wide at his bold statement. "Y-you are not my fiancé!" Yet. I shrieked at him. 

Even if we are the chosen partners by the government, I don't want to call him my fiancé. It needs a proper proposal to get to that point. I want it romantic. Something that I could not forget.

Heck, why am I even talking about this?

He even moved his face closer to mine and bluntly said with his fruity voice,

"Still, you are my woman."

I looked at him shockingly. His face was serious. The nerve of him to say that I'm his woman! And God, how can he say that to someone with a straight face? But knowing him, he's good at it. 

Especially when he says that to all the other girls.

His words have no effect on me. I didn't even blush—wait, let me rephrase that—I don't know how to blush. No matter how 'kilig' it is, I'll just shrug it off. 

We all know how men says crappy words these days just to play with a girl's heart. But of course, not all of them. If there is, I could just count them with my fingers.

It's starting to get hot. Not because I'm feeling any weird shit, but, he is too close! He is already invading my personal space so I pushed him away.

He should know his place.

"Oh please. For your information, nobody owns me." I looked at him with a serious expression on my face and stood up. "I also do not want any of this. I wished that my government notice hasn't arrived yet because you know what, I still have important things to do and someone owning me comes last on my list." He was stunned by my words.

Did I go below the belt? But all I said was true. I was just being honest. 

But still, I said too much. I'll just ask for an apology later when he's in a good mood. Hopefully. Though, I'll have a hard time approaching him because he always wears this grumpy and evil expression on his face.

And what's worse is that I have never seen him having a good mood, since the last couple of days that I am with him, at least.

He opened his mouth and was about to say something when his phone rang. He promptly answered it and left.

"W-wait!" He's gone. I facepalmed. I forgot to say thank you to him. He cooked these delicious foods so that we can eat something but I didn't appreciate it! And now, I made him mad. How shameless, Kira! 

Nana always told me to always be kind to everyone and yet here I am, saying such mean things to that man. But I know that what I did wasn't wrong either, though. She taught me how to defend myself! Even Josh taught me to fight back whenever I am bullied. And what I did earlier was defending myself from that bastard! He was too proud of himself calling me his woman! Owning me already on our second day? How...ugh!

But still, Kira. I should apologize to him and avoid fights with him to make things easier. 

I should search for him right away.

After cleaning the table and washing the dishes, I quickly left and searched for him.

"Where could he be?" He was nowhere to be found. I searched the whole mansion but there were no signs of him. I also went to the garden but he wasn't there.

Where is he?
