Pretended Synonyms

Professional, intelligent and almost perfect for being passionate for her job as a doctor, that's Sandra Olivarez. She is the best doctor that PPS Hospital has and envied because of her incomparable talent. She also have a great and loving family na wala na ata siyang mahihiling pa dahil sa suportang ibinibigay ng mga ito sa kanya. Well, maliban na lamang pala sa kanyang Daddy na wala nang ibang ginawa kung hindi ay ipagtulakan siya na maghanap na ng magiging kasintahan at agad nang magpakasal dahil gusto na daw nito ng apo sa kanya. At the age of 29 kasi ay wala pa siyang nobyo dahil sa wala ni isang pumapasa sa dami ng sumusubok na manligaw sa kanya. Kung kailan naman siya nakahinga ng maayos dahil umalis ang kanyang mga magulang para sa isang bakasyon sa Berlin ay saka naman niya nakabungguan ang lalaking hindi niya ata makakalimutan. Ang estrangherong naka-one-night stand niya nang magbakasyon siya ng dalawang araw sa isang isla sa Romblon. She tried to ignore his presence and pretended she doesn't know him. Pero mas makulit pa ata ito sa Daddy niya dahil simula ng magkita sila ay hindi na siya nito tinantanan hanggat hindi siya um-oo sa alok nitong kumain sa labas. Halos napanganga pa siya ng sabihin nito na liligawan siya nito at hindi siya titigilan hanggat hindi niya ito kinakausap o pinapansin. Paano na lamanh kung malaman nito na buntis siya at ito ang ama? Makakaiwas pa kaya siya kung ang tadhana na rin ang gumawa ng paraan dahil nakita niya itong kusap ang ama habang naghihintay sa lobby ng ospital at nagpaalam pa ito na liligawan siya nang malaman na Daddy niya pala ito.

While I'm waiting for my wife, Anna Fulton, I happen to come across a popular post on social media that's posted by someone who lives in the same city as I do. "What should I do if my husband clings to me too much?" Among the comments that make fun of the original poster for flaunting her happy marriage on the Internet, the lengthy comment left by a masculine ID attracts my attention. "You gotta pretend to be ditzy and dumb. My childhood friend was forced to marry the man she doesn't love, so I suggested to her that she should pretend to be a directionally-challenged idiot. She kept up that facade for five years so far. "After that, her mother-in-law kept urging her to give birth to a baby. So, she secretly coated the stairs with grease, leading to her husband falling down the stairs. When she drove him to the hospital, she pretended to lose her way and drove a few laps around the suburban area. In the end, her husband could never get his manhood up ever again because the treatment got delayed. "Her mother-in-law thought it was an accident. She was afraid that my childhood friend might abandon her husband, so she bought her a house and a car. You have no idea how much that mother-in-law sucked up to her! "Today is her husband's professor selection day. She even suggested to him that she'd drive him to the campus. But the truth is, she plans on pretending to lose her way in the traffic just to drag the time out so that I can replace him in the selection. "Once her husband fails the selection, she'll use the opportunity to convince him to resign from his job. He's already a loser, to begin with. Once he loses his job, she'll have a valid reason to divorce him once and for all." The familiar experience makes my heart skip a beat. Before I can ruminate about the details, I hear Anna's guilt-ridden voice drifting into my ear. "I think I'm lost, Claude. Surely you can make it to the selection on time, right?"

On the day my love fades away for good, I've finally learned something about my mate, Ethan Langley. He's not hopeless when it comes to directions—he just can't remember which path it is that leads to me. Ethan is the Alpha of the pack, whereas I'm his mate. We've been mates for ten years. But whenever I need him, he always gets lost. On the day of our marking ceremony, Ethan got lost in the pack territory. Because of that, the ceremony was delayed for another three days. Every year on the marking anniversary, Ethan would always get lost. The food in the evening banquet I always prepared would always go stone cold. When I was eight months pregnant with my pup, I sent an SOS message to him through the mind-link after I suffered from a bad fall. While Ethan screamed at me that he'd be there through the mind-link, he was physically lost in the pack territory for five hours. By the time our packmates came to my rescue, my pup was already dead. As I lay on the stone bed in the healing center, my packmates came over to comfort me. "Ethan can't navigate at all to save his life. He didn't do this on purpose. Don't get mad at him, okay? You two will still have pups in the future." I could only nod in a daze. But on the day we were supposed to attend our pup's funeral, I realized that Ethan was familiar with the road when he was behind the wheel in the SUV. He even took a detour just to drop by the residence of Lyria Jeffries, a female Beta. "Elena, there's still some time before the funeral starts. I'm going to send Lyria home first so that she can visit her family." Before I could object, the car had already stopped right outside Lyria's residence. Lyria got into the front passenger seat as though it was the most natural thing to do in the world. She wore a bright smile as she said, "Look at how well I've groomed you, Ethan! If you ever forget the way to my place, I'll make sure to skin you alive!" Only then did Lyria notice me, who sat in the backseat. She pretended to be bashful as she stuck out her tongue. "I was just kidding, Elena." I endured Lyria's "harmless" quips with a stony expression. But right after Ethan dropped Lyria off, he forgot the way to the funeral immediately. Because of that, the funeral was delayed by half an hour. As I held my pup's tiny urn, I felt my heart sinking into the pits of my stomach. It turns out that there exists someone who can be exempted from Ethan's hopeless sense of direction. It's just that… my pup and I are never the exception.
