Falling For My Contract Husband Novels & Stories

"Okay. Stop texting na while driving.” It's weird. Kasal kami na may pinirmahang kontrata. Masson purposely stated there na mag a-annul kami after 5 months and yet we acted like a real couple. Hindi naman kami iyong tipong strangers sa isa’t-isa but at least we’re civil. Or more than that? Am I falling? Is he falling? Or is this a show for him? If the latter is correct, then I lose. Really lose in the bet.

But His mom is really soft and sophisticated woman. Nang makababa kami he ask me for a talk. Like I was expecting finally showing his true intention about this marriage. And he handed me a revised contract telling that I was freed with debts but still working for him as his wife. We still bind by this marriage. I signed it like my life depended on it. Hindi ko na napigil pa ang sarili ko nasabi ko sa kanyang niloko niya ako. Dun niya inaming he doesn't really love me. At ang tanga kong naniwala na in a short span of time he will fall in love with me. His playing with my feelings. I knew it.

I am angry, I am frustrated and I am confused. Hindi naman ako dapat magalit sa sitwasyon ko dahil alam ko na ang kontrata namin. Pero, kahit contract marriage lang kami, hindi ba dapat single kami pareho? Bakit may girlfriend siya? Fine, nang sabihin niya na we can break the contract anytime we wanted, I thought it was that easy. Hindi ko naman sukat akalain na magiging frustrated pala ako.

Tumingin ako sa kaniya at saka ikinunot ang aking noo dahil sa mga sinabi niya. "The tale about you is that you're strong, can't easily fool, and can't easily tame," he said those words without hesitation. "I only agreed to that contract for me to leave that house, not to be your mate or wife, do you understand?" I said while pointing a fork at him. He raised both hands and said, "Fine, I give up, but I won't stop making you fall in love with me." "Finish your food, it's already a quarter to nine, or else do you want both of us to shower together?" He never failed to make jokes about everything.

Pero ngayon, parang ako mismo ang sumusuko. Napabuntong-hininga ako nang maalalang isang taon lang ang kontrata ng kasal namin na nagsimula sa isang kasunduan. Pakiramdam ko ay 'yon talaga ang kapalaran namin kasi simula't sapul, mali ang nangyari sa amin. Maling-mali ang mahulog kami sa isa't isa lalo na't siya ang Ninong ko at inaanak niya lang ako. "Kung pipirmahan mo 'yan, makikita niya ang ina niya sa huling pagkakataon," bulong ni Charles habang nakatayo sa tabi ko.

"Why would I be mad? We're just married on paper. Simula pa lang, alam ko na ang lugar ko. I won't experience a real husband-and-wife relationship, since you don't love me after all." "Ang sabi mo pa nga, I’m just your bed warmer wife—nothing more, nothing less. I agreed to that contract because… of business and a part of that, yeah, I enjoy the fact that we’re having s*x, even if we don't love each other. I won’t deny that I’m attracted to you—" I suddenly stopped talking after I saw his reaction. His expression shifted—something unreadable flickered in his eyes, something dark and intense. A step.

bigkas ni Mommy dahil sa nang umuwi nga ako kagabi ay tulog na sila ni Daddy pareho. "Sabihin mo, anong nangyari sa date mo anak?" pang-uusyoso pa niya. Inalala ko ang mga nangyari kagabi. Pumirma lang naman ako nang kontrata sa isang pinakagwapong aroganteng lalaki na nakilala ko at nakasaad sa kontratang iyon na asawa ko na siya. Hindi lang iyon, nagpictorial pa kaming dalawa suot ang isang pangkasal na kasuotan at aksidente ko pang naharap ang Mommy niya.

Kasi habang tumatagal, parang sobrang sikip ng mundo sa aming lahat. Pero kaya ko nga bang maging masamang ina? Hindi ba parang magiging katulad ko na rin si Papa kung ganoon ang gagawin ko. But then, pinasok ko ang kontrata na ito. Si Dominic man o hindi ang asawa ni Trisha. Nasilaw ako sa pera.

Kasunod non ay kusa na lang na tumulo ang luha niya. "I'm sorry I can't be a good husband and father." Hawak ng binata ang papel sa kamay nito. Ang papel na naglalaman ng kontrata nilang dalawa. Mawawalan lang dapat ito ng bisa sa loob ng tatlong taon. "But I am letting you go." He was holding the paper of their supposed to be a three-year contract. But he decided to cut it off right now already. Bakit niya pa patatagalin?

“Akala ko contract lang ang marriage nyo.” “Yes, Mom,” sagot ko. “Nung simula. You know how Dad’s pressuring me to get married for the sake of the company. Siya naman kailangan ng money para makabayad sa family bills. No emotions. Purely business…” Tumigil ako. Nag-isip. “Pero somewhere along the way,” tuloy ko, “nagbago. I started looking forward to seeing her. Started caring. I didn’t realize I was falling for her.”
