Jisoo P.O.V

"Gallo Pinto." I looked at the waiter with a dumb face. He gave me an awkward smile before saying, "tu pronunciacion es muy buena." [Your pronunciation is very good]

"What did he say?" I asked Taehyung curiously, "He said your pronunciation is very bad." I gave the waiter a look of disbelief. So rude

As the waiter took our order I admired the restaurant. It had a royal look with gold-painted walls and white lamps which were shining brightly. At the side, golden fairy lights were hanging through the windows

I was wearing a sleeveless golden sequin dress which kinda matched the place. Ah feels good to match with the restaurant. Yes, that's sarcasm. I have become camouflaged here

I took a few glances at Taehyung who was looking dangerously handsome wearing that black shirt with his sleeves rolled up to his forearms. I should stop doing this. Everyone will think that I have a crush on him or something

As our food came, my whole attention went towards it and I didn't even pay attention to the people who were staring at Taehyung, "Did you do something?" He shook his head as he suddenly became aware of his surroundings

"Hey?" A pretty-looking woman came to us who totally ignored my whole existence and started ogling Taehyung, "You can speak English right?"

"Yes." He answered, "Um I just wanted to know if you are single. Can you give me your phone number?" I giggled when I saw Taehyung in a dilemma, "Oh he is sing-" I was cut off by him. "Sorry, but I'm married." My hands started sweating. Why am I feeling like this? Why is my heart thumping like this? This is wrong

"Is she your wife?" She didn't say anything but her eyes were full of jealousy. I suddenly felt self-conscious. I shouldn't have worn this dress. Maybe I'm looking weird. I tucked a strand of my hair behind my ear while looking down at my plate which was still full

"Yes, she is my wife."

I just couldn't look up at him. I don't know why?

"Um excuse me? I'll be right back." I went outside to take in some fresh air. It was so suffocating inside. I blinked back my tears which were threatening to spill from my eyes. It happened again. No matter how much I try I always come to this point again. I try to be confident. I compliment myself to feel good but all my efforts are useless

"Do you want ice cream?" I looked behind. Taehyung was standing there holding my purse, "No. I don't like sweet things."

"Let's go to the hotel," I said taking my purse from him. The whole ride we didn't speak to each other and I was glad about that. I was not in the mood to even say anything to anyone

After we reached the hotel. We went to our rooms. I sat down on the bed thinking about everything which happened just fifteen minutes ago

There was a knock on the door. I opened it only to find Taehyung again, "Here." He handed me a bag, "What's this?"

"Food." My eyes widened, "Food? But we just ate." Is he serious?

"I did. You didn't." Did he go outside just to buy food for me? Am I dreaming? The Kim Taehyung did this for me? Wow. God must have big plans today

"The food is in large quantity. So we should eat together." He shook his head, "No. I'm full. You can have it yourself." His answer made me mad, "Why are you so stubborn? Can't you listen to me for once?"

He sighed but did as I told him to do. I did a victory dance inside my head. As I took the first bite of the food I felt like I was in cloud nine. It was delicious. My taste buds were having a party today

It is a fact that Taehyung and I hate each other and no matter how many times I say that he is annoying and self egoistic, even I know well that he is a good person. He cares for his family a lot. He respects my Dad like his own

"Taehyung? Why did you agree to marry me?" This was my nth time asking him this question but I can't help it. I was curious. I wanted to know why he agreed to marry the person whom he despise from his heart. Why did he ruin his own life like this? What was his real motive behind all this?

"You should go to sleep." He got up leaving me dumbfounded. I quickly stood up on my feet and grabbed his shirt tightly, "I'm not letting you go. You have to answer me."

I married him because I don't want our company to deal with him but what's his real intention?

"I married you because I wanted to. There is the answer. Now leave me." I grabbed his shirt more tightly, "You don't love me. You never even had a crush on me."

He stepped close to me, "And what if I told you that I love you?" His eyes were full of lies, "Don't give me that bullshit. We both know that it's not true."

"Our marriage is a joke. We will probably divorce each other in no time. So wait for that moment and I'll answer you why I married you." I bit my cheek from inside, "True. After all, we are not meant to be."

His eyes captured me as I saw some unknown emotions swirling through them. Was it pain or maybe guilt?
