Zaijan Monzonaga (Cruel Love Series 1)

Wearing a long and shiny color that matches my skin which also shines my white skin. I am wearing a gold earrings, necklace, and bracelet with a pale lipstick and light make-up and slowly walking at the hallway and enters through the open large double doors. The waiter greeted me with a tray with a wine glass, I took a glass and walked closer to my Father with whom he was talking. I caught sight of my father and walked over to me with a frown. "You're 20 minutes late, Elisha" He said in a low tone. I couldn't answer because a man stood in front of me and my father patted me so I smiled. I held out my hand and the man accepted it too, he was old because I could see his white hair. They seem to be the same age as my father.He smile back to me and greeted me genuinely. "Is this your daughter, Cole? She is beautiful" He had conversation with my dad so I stand respectfully. "Yes" My father look me in the eyes. "I am Elisha Devenna Young" I introduce myself to him. "Elisha and Zaijan. Perfect combo" He said and they both laughed. A man entered the room dressed in a matching suit and oxford shoes. He has a pleasant scent, and when our eyes meet, they appear cold as ice. Has a almond eyes and innocent-looking. With thin lips, a large forehead, and a high nasal bridge nose. He is tall, his body is attractive and in good form, and his hair is magnificent all the way down to his oxford shoes. "Oh Elisha, this is my son, Zaijan" His father introduce me to him. "Elisha Young" I held my hand to him and he didn't even respond. "Yes? I told you to pass the papers to me immediately, you're fired Ms. Fernan" I get shocked for a second and I thought he was talking to me but he was talking to someone on his cellphone. I just stood there watching him walk away from me. "My apologies, my son has a pricky attitude" I just smiled to Mr. Zanjoe. I also walked away from my father and Mr. Zanjoe. I have urgent matters in Hospital so I hurried to walk and because of my haste I felt the removal of the lace lock of my heels. I bent down to fix it but suddenly I saw a hand fix the lace lock of my heels. I looked up and it was Zanjoe and he still busy making conversation to the phone. "My name is Zaijan, nice to meet you by the way" He said and his voice sounded like he was just being forced to introduce himself to me. "Nice to meet you" I responded and smile. He did not look at me and immediately passed me and watched him walk away from me. His presence was so cold that he seemed even colder on the ice. To maintain excellent connections with the Zaijan Family, I only act in accordance with my father's advice. My father only thinks that we need a relationship. I'll attempt to get along with Zaijan, but it seems like I won't be able to I only have a little patience, it might wear thin. Because I don't yet have a male friend, I am unsure of how to approach men. What my father was saying was beyond my comprehension. But if I try, I'll merely meet people and make friends. "Hi Doc" Doc. Alford greeted me with a cup of cappuccino. "You're 30 minutes late, Doc" I ignored him and devoted my attention to the slide on the emergency room computer. "While he was sleeping there was a sudden sound in his teeth and after that his mouth never opened again" I look closer to the monitor. "Dental Luxation, it needs to clean the root with saline solution and reposition the tooth back into the sucket, you can do that, Doc. Alford right?" I asked him and he nodded. "And splint for about two weeks to stabilize the tooth" I added. I walked to room 2 to do the dental braces I perform it 1-2 hours and I received a call from ny father. "Your Tito Zanjoe delivered an invitation so get dressed and our family car will pick you up" He said and hang up. I don't have anything nice to wear for this event. The only dress I had in locker was the olive satin peplum corset, and leather pants. I wore it and took my leather sandals to wear it too, I said goodbye to the assigned doctors today. I was also surprised that Zaijan's father delivered the invitation, at 2 AM in the morning. Is that how important he is to say. The family car that my father said earlier has also arrived. I got on and left where our driver would take me. He stopped at a building, he opened the door for me and I came out as well. We are here in the big Cruise Ship Terminal in the Philippines. "Ma'am Elisha,enter that door and a woman will show you the right door to enter the Cruiss Ship. I'm sorry if I can only give such details, that's all Sir Cole ordered" he pointed to the door and I just nodded. "It's okay" I answered. I entered the door he said and walked, a woman approached me and she pointed the way. The guard opened the glass door for me and walked into the Cruise Ship. It's my first time here because I don't have time for fun or night parties. I just spend all my time at work because that's where I'm having fun. "Good Morning Ma'am! Welcome to MZA Mership. We are happy to welcome you and enjoy your stay here" The girl smiled. "Have reservations, Ma'am?" She asked. "She's with me" I looked at the deep voice of the man who spoke. He has a neat appearance, and I can already smell his perfume. He utilizes an aroma that appeals to my noses. He had long white sleeves and a matching suit on. In his left hand, he is holding a silver watch. He looked just as good in what he was wearing. "You're Elisha right?" He asked me and I looked up and our eyes met. "Y-yes ..." I said nervously. He handed me the brown envelope and I accepted it with my hands and was about to peek at it when he suddenly spoke. "Your family is in a desperate phase right now. Do you need money? I'll give it to you so you can pay off your Father's debt, but I need a replacement. Stay away. I don't want to marry you, Elisha. I don't have a plan yet and I don't want to get married to you. But both our parents want us to get married. So that it doesn't continue and happen, stay away " He promised seriously and I just stared into his dark and angry eyes. "What? wedding?...I don't have idea..about what you're talking about" I said nervously. "Of course you don't know anything about our fathers' plan. Someone just came to me with information so I also sent it to you. So what's your plan?" He asked and sparingly smiled. "I declined too. I'm not planning to get married to anyone. I am happy being single" I said it directly he might think I want to marry him so I told him directly. He is cold, that's not my type and my patience is short so I might run out and slap him. And I have never seen myself marry a man. Never and never will that happen. "Good. So you accept my offer?" He asked. "H-huh? Y-yeah..hmm..y-yes" I muttered because I was nervous that my mouth might still say something. "You're easy to talk to, Ms Elisha. That's all for today. Goodbye" He said and I was surprised that I was suddenly confused. He stood up and walked away from me. I was left alone at the table in front of so many dishes to eat. I went home and met the wrinkled forehead of my father who was probably sitting on the sofa. He looks angry and holds back. Did something happened or did I do wrong that makes him angry? "How dare you to say No to Zanjoe agreement for you and Zaijan" He look pissed. "What? Dad—" "You don't have the right to refuse Zanjoe's offer. That's all they're asking for in return, that's all Elisha why don't you want more?" What? why is it my fault that Zaijan still doesn't want to marry me? so it's my fault now. "Dad — we're talking about marriage. For as long as Dad lives. And we don't like each other. He doesn't want it, I don't want it either, maybe you understand that" I explained to him. "You can get married if you don't like each other. Elisha do this for me, please ...." he begged. "Dad—" "I'll fix it, find a place to stay tomorrow and then we'll take care of the wedding" I'm shocked, oh my ghad. "WHAT YOU'RE GETTING MARRIED??!?!?" My friend asked in shock. Stacey is my bestfriend since highschool. So he was very shocked by what I said because he knew I had never been interested in the man and now I will get married, who wouldn't be surprised there? My father’s decisions were insane. "It is, what it is" I said and he was still shocked. "What the f**k are you not joking? Are you — you're lying. I know you're lying, Elisha" He said and he was still shocked. "I don't remember. I mean you haven't introduced a man or no man is planning to enter your life because you're not interested in men and now you're getting married?" He added. "It's my father's decision. You know when he makes the decision I can't do anything there, that's it" He was even more surprised. I gasped and looked at Stacey. "Don't agree with your Dad's decision, don't agree at all. Your future and your husband future depends on it, not your Dad's life. Maybe sometimes say no to your Dad" She was right that we are talking about the future here but I can't say no to Dad, I won't allow that. What he wants is to be followed. "I can't say to him. We've already met my fiancé. He looks okay—" "I'm speechless, Elisha. I don't know, I'm shocked. But what's your plan? Is your Dad's plan your plan too?" He asked as if full of apprehension. "Whatever Dad's plan, I'm still tied up because I still live in his house. I have no right not to follow his orders because he's my father" I said and he just nodded. "This is an unexpected meet up. But this is bad news, my whole soul has lived. You surprised me, Elisha. My only advice to you, don't over limit.
