Akala ko tapos na ang gabi. Tahimik na ang buong bahay, pero hindi ang dibdib ko. Kagagaling lang namin sa isang party—hosted by his mother. Ang daming tao. Ang daming mata. Pero kahit na ipinakilala niya akong secretary lang, ramdam ko ang pag-aangkin sa bawat sulyap niya. Lalo na nang may lalaking lumapit sa akin. Lalo na nang ngumiti ako, kahit sandali. Doon ko siya nakita—yung paninigas ng panga, ang lalim ng tingin na parang babagsak ang langit. Kaya hindi na ako nagulat nang may kumatok. Malakas. Walang pasintabi. Pagbukas ko ng pinto, naroon siya. Si Cayden. Nakatayo sa dilim, may halong galit at silakbo sa mukha. Hindi siya nagsalita agad—dumiretso siya sa loob, isinara ang pinto, at hinila ako papunta sa kama. “Cayden, what are you—stop!” Nagpumiglas ako. Umiwas. Pero hinigpitan niya ang hawak sa braso ko. Lumuhod siya sa kama, pinilit akong mapahiga. At saka siya bumulong, malamig ang boses, pero parang nasusunog ako sa bawat salita. “Tonight, whether you like it or not… I’m going to claim you.” Nanlaki ang mata ko. Hindi ito tanong. Hindi ito pakiusap. Ito ang utos ng isang lalaking hindi kailanman tinanggihan. Hindi siya aalis. Hindi siya titigil. At ngayong gabi— Tatatakan niya ako ng pangalan niya. Kahit hindi ako handa.

“Zhia, listen carefully to them...” Ipinakita nila sa akin through presentation ang portfolio ni Sean at halos... Wow. Napanganga ako at yung tipong natulog pa ba ang lalaking to sa loob ng 17 years at 17 years lang! Oh my Ghad! “All of the businesses are legally operated.” Napalingon ako kay Sean... “Sorry.” yun na lang nasambit ko dahil alam ko malulugi siya dahil sa trilliones na nawala. “ I don't accept Sorry Zhia. It's just a playing safe words. I hate that single word. So, since sinabi ko na din yan. Don't ever mention it again. I think pumirma ka na.” Napatingin ako sa papel. Oh my na pinanlakihan ko ng aking mga mata. Sabay yakap sa folder at tingin na nakangiti kay Sean. “Hindi pa. Pakuha ka nang bagong kontrata dali.” Nang bigla niyang hawakan yung folder at tigasan kong niyakap. “Ano ba Sean! Ikaw tong di nakikinig eh! Di pa nga!” Pero mapilit talaga.hangang sa nakuha na niya. Tinignan nga niya...at hinarap ako na nakangiti... “You're already mine Zhia, kahit wala ang kontrata na ito.” sabi niya na di maalis sa labi niya ang ngiti.

As soon as I saw her, I knew I had to have her. I thought this Vegas fundraiser was going to be boring—another obligation to keep the family business alive. Wrong. I don’t remember a thing about the night we spent together, other than how good she felt against me, like she was made for me. We woke up the next morning with more than we bargained for—wedding rings. Too bad I don’t believe in true love. I’d feel bad about it, but she’s got a strong opinion of me too. I’m a perpetual bachelor from her perspective. Great. Crazy enough, this could work out for both of us. I need someone to keep my traditional Greek family from nagging me about settling down, and she could use some cash for reasons she doesn’t want to share. I know a good deal when I see one. And if she wants to end up in my bed all over again, all the better…
