Falling For My Contract Husband Novels & Stories

Pero hindi ko iyon pinahalata. Pvtangina! Binasa ko ang aking pang-ibabang labi. Tumingin siya sa kamay niyang nakahawak sa akin, tapos pinaglapat ang aming mga daliri, saka pinagsiklop. Sobrang lakas ng tibok ng puso ko. Parang kakawala na ito sa dibdib ko. Does this man even know what he’s doing to me? “Let’s stop this fvcking contract and be real, wife.” Napasinghap ako, hindi makagalaw sa kinauupuan ko.

Tahimik ako habang nasa biyahe. Paano nga ulit niya ako napapayag na pakasalan siya? Ay oo nga pala, it is because of the contract. Pero, ang akala ko noong una, fake marriage lang naman eh. Bakit ba ako pumayag na totohanin 'yon? Wala pa namang divorce dito. "We are here. Tara," aniya at binuksan ang pinto ng kotse niya. Inalalayan niya ako pagbaba, na akala mo naman lumpo ako.

"Lo, kailan ba matatapos 'to? Pagod na po ako." Ang tanging sagot lang na narinig ko ay ang mahinang tunog ng heart monitor ni Lolo. Sa labas, rinig na rinig ang gulo ng mga reporter. At dito sa loob, nararamdaman ko ang unti-unting pagkawala ng huling tiwala ko kay Iñigo. ​Ang 90-days contract na akala ko ay matatapos na sa boardroom—pero mukhang dito pa lang talaga magsisimula ang totoong gulo.

"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.

Para bang hindi ko dapat narinig 'yon. “I just don’t want complication,” he muttered, voice colder now. “You’re my contract wife, after all.” Tila biglang naupos ang kung anumang kakaiba kong naramdaman kanina. Right... He's a businessman, and he doesn’t want to complicate things. I’ll be his contracted wife. Nothing less, nothing more. I looked down, the words stinging in a way I couldn’t quite explain. Hindi ko dapat ‘yon nararamdaman. At hindi ko rin alam kung bakit ko ‘yon nararamdaman.

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.
