Never in Kelsey Alena Sanchez's dream did she ever imagine herself being forced into an arranged marriage. Who would've thought that Benjamin Antonio Donovan―a man she has a cat and dog relationship with―will now be her soon-to-be husband?
And beca...

Bail
Today is the day for the said bidding. I was busy looking for a dress inside my closet when someone knocked on the door. Hindi na niya hinintay pa ang sagot ko dahil binuksan na rin naman niya ang pinto nang walang pahintulot ko.
Nilingon ko ito. Benjamin on his dark blue polo, coat and slacks, peeked inside my room. Agad naman niyang nahagip ang mga mata ko. I stared at him coldly.
Hindi na namin pinagusapan pang muli ang nangyari noong nakaraang linggo. Para saan pa di ba? It's not like we're really a married couple who needs to resolve their problems as early as possible. My problems are not his and his problems are not mine.
"I just thought you're already done dressing up. Isasabay na sana kita." Aniya.
I nod my head. Iniwas ko ang tingin sakanya at binalik muli sa aking mga damit.
"Mabilis nalang 'to. Bababa rin agad ako pagkatapos."
Hindi ko na tiningnan pa ang reaksyon niya. Ngunit ramdam kong hindi niya parin sinasara ang pinto ng kwarto ko. Nilingon ko siyang muli at nakitang hindi parin siya umaalis sa dati niyang pwesto.
Tinaasan ko siya ng kilay. "What?"
He pressed his lips into a thin line then he shakes his head. "Nothing. I'll wait for you downstairs."
Pagkatapos noon ay tsaka niya lang sinara ang pinto ng kwarto ko. I let out a sigh. Imbes na hayaang bumabagabag pa sa akin iyon ay pinagpatuloy ko nalang ang paghahanap ng masusuot.
I ended up wearing a ruffle wine red midi dress. I paired it with a black ankle strapped heels and I let my natural wavy hair down. Habang naglalagay ng hikaw ay nagawi ang tingin ko sa isang alahas na hindi ko masyadong nasusuot.
It's our engagement and wedding ring. Ang bato nito sa gitna ay kaakit-akit na kung sino mang magagawi ang mga mata dito ay tiyak na mamamangha.
We will be in front of a lot of people today and I'm sure they know that Benjamin and I are married. Baka magtaka ang mga iyon kung bakit hindi ko suot ang singsing sa kasal namin. I don't know if Benjamin wears his. Hindi ko alam dahil hindi ko naman pinapansin.
After I wore my earrings, kinuha ko na iyong singsing. I stared at it after inserting it on my ring finger. This fits my finger perfectly. I don't know why he chose to give me a beautiful ring like this. Pupwede naman iyong simple lang, dahil hindi naman tunay itong kasal namin.
A ring as beautiful and expensive as this should be given to the woman he truly loves. Ang kagaya kong napilitan lang siyang pakasalan ay dapat simple lang. Hindi na kailangan pang pag-gastosan.
Nang mapansing napatagal na ang titig ko doon ay kinuyom ko nalang ang aking kamao. It feels weird on my finger. Siguro dahil ngayon ko nalang ulit ito nasuot matapos ng mahabang panahon.
