Confusion

Tahimik Lang ako habang kumakain nang dinner.His words lingered on my mind earlier.He asked me to give our marriage a try.Ibig sabihin ,binbigyan niya nang chance ang Kung anong meron sa Amin.Kanina,napatunganga Lang ako sa kanya pagkatapos niyang sabihin iyon.I can't believe it.

I can't believe that he's going to fix this Pseudo marriage.Its not actually fake,because are wedding is legitimate.On the other side,ano namang Nakain niya at gusto niyang bigyan nang pagkakataon tong kasal nato.

"Stop thinking,start eating."

I was pulled back from my reverie when his baritone voice enveloped my ears.Napatingin ako sa kanya.I awkwardly averted my gaze when I found out that he's staring at me too,while sexily sipping his wine.

Of course,i can't deny that Eren is oozing with charismatic appeal.He's handsome, fashionable,achiever and charming.Girls love intellectual guys.Sexy brains over flowery mouth.

I shook my head.

"6 months from now,lawyer ka na." I said.

"Uh-huh,"

I don't know why but his answer,makes my stomach churn.Butterflies started fretting.Nagbaba ako nang tingin.Alam Kong nakatitig Siya sa akin,and i can't stand the intensity of his petrifying eyes.

"Internship na Lang,Attorney Ka na Diba?"

I learned from Kuya that being a lawyer and attorney has a quite difference.Lawyer ka na Kung naka graduate ka na sa law school.But you can be called an attorney if nakapasa ka sa board and licensure exam.

"Hmm,"

"6 months Lang ang itatagal nang kasal natin,you can be free from our marriage.You are free to marry whoever you want."

Matagal niya akong tinitigan bago bumuntong hininga.

"I am serious when I told you to give our marriage a try,Nicoleein."

Napatigil ako sa paghinga at inangat ang tingin sa kanya.Nakatingin siya sa akin bago inilipat ang paningin sa glass wine niya.I was about to utter a word when he spoke again.

"Anyway,what do you want to do tomorrow,except the sex part.I know you're still not ready for that-"

"Tumigil ka nga!Bibig mo talaga,wala na bang ibang idadal yang bibig mo kundi kabastusan?"

I am not ready for that and I am not going to do it with him.

Humalakhak Siya.

"Walang bastos sa sinabi ko,Zette.Normal na Gawain Lang yan sa mag-asawa–"

"Ibahin mo ako."

Amusement was now visible on his eyes.He was playing with his lips before he cackle.

"We're not lovers,yes.But we can consumate our marriage–"

"Ibabato ko to sayo ang hawak Kong kutsilyo,Eren Gunner!"

Tuluyan na Siyang humalakhak.Hindi ko maiwasan ang mapanguso.Tuwang Tuwa ah,parang Hindi tinupak kanina.I can't understand his sudden change of mood.

"Alright,Alright." He cleared his throat after his laugh. "So what do you want to do for tomorrow?May itinerary ka na ba?"

Speaking of that.

I shook my head.Wala akong alam Kung anong gagawin ko bukas.I am not an adventurous woman.Ibang iba sa kambal ko at Kay Kuya.

"You want to visit our farm?We can visit our Corn milling area."

"May farm kayo nang mga mais?"

He nodded.
