Patricia's POV "You need to live with him..." My tongue stocked because of mom's words. I looked at her while holding my tears. "Why do I have to, mom? I did what you wanted! I married him!" she was surprised by my reaction. Maybe I have the right to complain. I married Callum for our company. I don't love him so why the hell do I have to live in the same house with him?! "I noticed that Mrs. Velasquez is a bit strict. You are both married and it's common for the both of you to live in the same house-" "Mom, this is not what you promised.." my voice shuttered as my tears began to rolled down. Very painful. Are they giving me away? Are they satisfied because our company is back to normal again? "P-Patricia, I know…but, Callum's parents was asking about it" her voice trembled, she was about to approach me but I avoided her. I wiped away my tear

Patricia's POVI always tell myself that I'll just enjoy my life once I am become successful, when I get what I want and reach my dream but I don't expect that I'll experience first to take my responsibilities as a wife before finishing my studies."What are you doing? You're too early" I was startled by Callum's voice.I turned and saw his sleepy face."Obviously cooking" I replied before flipping the egg in the pan.It's another stressful morning. I didn't get much sleep here. I'm not comfortable with the new environment here especially that I'm with him.I thought of cooking even though it was very early because I couldn't sleep anymore."Oh, you know how to cook" he sounds amaze.I stopped. What did he think of me? Doesn’t know anything?"Of course, I love cooking" I said bitterly before serving what I cooked on the table.I know he still had work so I cooked for him.Callum went upstairs for a while so I got a plate ready.Since I love coffee, I made one for me and one for him so

Patricia's POV Everything seems so fast. My everyday routine was just so plain and only filled with thrill when I was about to go to school and when Callum and I talked. I'm still not comfortable with him around me. It's so hard for me to deal with our situation every time we ate together and had dinner also with our families. I thought that was just my situation. I thought that was difficult, but it turns out that there is something more difficult. It was not easy for me to study in med school even though it was my dream. I was judged by the students. Some was thinking of me as a user and others seems doesn't care but I don't care about them either. It seems to be happening to me repeatedly. When I come home from school, I will avoid Callum. I avoid talking too much since we're both busy and we don't talk that much. Sometimes, he's insisting to take me to school or maybe pick me up but I don't agree because I don't want students to

Patricia's POV "Where have you been?" That was Callum's greeting when I returned to our table from the comfort room. He was in the usual blank expression unlike earlier who was smiling while talking to Zara. "Just in the comfort room," I answered. I just stared at the desserts in front of me and chose to just drink some water. I lost my appetite. I also saw mommy who was already at their table and eating. The noise around got louder because of the whispers and laughter of the guests. Callum is busy on his phone now and I'm just playing with the spoon in my hand while waiting for the party to end. "Are you okay?" I looked up to Callum. "Yeah..." "Do you want some-" "Nah, this will do" I said and showed him the desserts and drinks I hadn’t touched yet. I was silent and looking around but I could still feel Callum's gaze on me. That makes me more consciou

Patricia's POV  "Could you please inform me? Your mom told me that you weren't at their home so I was worried,"  Callum's serious voice echoed in the living room. I didn't answer. I remained with my head lowered and fiddling with my fingers. I never thought he would talk to me in such a serious way.  "It’s just strange that I didn’t see you here. You had my number so I hope that you just called or texted me? So that I got informed?" I couldn't stop myself and answered him. "I'm safe, okay? I fell asleep at Jess' condo and didn't realize the time," He's too talkative today, huh. I just got home late! But when he comes home at night, I don't say anything. "But a guy answered my call earlier. Are you letting someone else hold your phone?" there was an accusation in his tone. "Tyrone answered the call bec
