Hindi totoo ‘yan, anak. ‘Yung sinasabi mong complementary—na magkaiba ng ugali—ibig sabihin lang niyan, magkabaligtad kayo. Eh paano kayo tatagal kung magkakasalungat ang paniniwala, ugali, paningin sa buhay? Hindi sapat ang kilig at kakaibang personalidad. Kung gusto mo talagang magtagal, kailangang tugma kayo. Tugma sa prinsipyo, tugma sa pananaw, tugma sa puso. Kasi kung puro pagkakaiba, tiyak ‘yan, mag-aaway din kayo sa huli.”

“Have you realized it now? Then let’s assume the title was named after Aries, you still have access with the land because of your marriage. But if you two got annulled, you will also lose your right with the land.” Bumagsak ang balikat ko. Masyado akong naka-focus sa pagtatago ng marital status ko kaya hindi ko na naisip pa ang cons sa pagpapakasal ko kay Aries. So mapupunta na lang ba sa wala ang isinugal ko? “But...” Napatingin ako kay Cali nang muli itong magsalita. “If he will make the land subdivided, then there’s no problem. You just need to convince him.”

“S-Sandali, kailangan ko rin na manatili rito?” Simple siyang tumango. “Of course, you are marrying me. We can't get married and live separately, don't we? Once you get married to me and carry the Madrigal's name, you will be followed by people who want to overthrow Armani and are just waiting for the opportunity to destroy our family’s reputation. So, every move must be calculated. No one else can know that the wedding that will take place is fake, except you, me, and my lawyer.” sambit niya.

She obviously doesn't know her worth as a woman at yun ang talagang nakakaawa sakanya. "You settle for that? Aantayin mo nalang na umuwi siya sayo kung kailan niya gusto? If he really loves nor wants you, hindi na siya lilingon pa sa ibang babae. But look where you are right now..waiting for a man that's already married with another woman. I'm saying this to wake your senses up. Ismael doesn't want you anymore. He's my husband. Stop being delusional."

Akala niya tapos na lahat noong pumirma siya kanina. Pero mukhang hindi pa pala. Dahan-dahan niya iyong binuksan. At isa-isang bumungad ang mga kondisyon.

I clenched my jaw and fists neverending because of what he was spouting as if I was just a fucking easy to control. No fucking way! I won't marry Mara since I don't love her and for me, arranged marriage is a fucking ridiculous! It's far from my belief and even though I'm fucking merciless and evil, I won't let this motherfucker destroy that belief... the only thing that mother left me before she died.

Hindi niya inasahang ganoon na pala kalalim ang gusot sa pagitan ng dalawa. Tahimik si Kyro, ngunit agad sumikip ang mukha. Matigas niyang hinawakan ang hawak-hawak na marriage certificate, at malamig na tinig ang sumunod na lumabas sa kanyang bibig. “Marriage is not something you just throw away when you're tired of it. Hindi ito laruan na kapag nagsawa ka, iiwan mo na lang. Do you think this is a game?”

Sit in a cactus. Besides, wala na akong makitang rason para patagalin pa namin ang relasyong ito. We did it for the baby. But now that the baby is gone, what is this marriage still for? We can always annul our marriage whenever we want to, he has the money and my approval. We never had the moment to properly discuss about it, but I can't find the courage to initiate the conversation.
