THE RULES

Blanca's POV He smiled faintly, watching those lips arched upward, I felt my heart beat increasing "I believe you are done and relaxed now" his deep sensational voice penetrated into my mind. I stared at him and slightly gave a nod and he nodded too "good, course I want what I have to say now to sink in deeply" he stopped for a moment "being my wife comes with some rules and should you abide by it, we won't have issues." Rules? Rules in marriage? Since when did that become a thing? I thought but I can't get myself to question him now. "Three rules:? Don't talk to me, Don't touch me, Stay out of my business." My eyes widened in shock, what would be marriage without those things? How can I be married to him but am not allowed to talk to him? Not allowed to touch him? Forget about the business one, I can handle it but the other two? Kale stared at her wide-eyed expression without uttering a single word again. When he was sure his words had sunk in, he stood up and walked into the bathroom, leaving me staring into empty space in shock. I watched him as he stepped out of the bathroom, there were beads of water on his body and a towel around his chest, he walked into his walk-in closet that I didn't know was there when I entered. After three minutes, he came out and went straight to the bed. He laid on his own side of the bed and turned off his bed lamp. I sat staring at him, is he for real? What have I gotten myself into? What kind of marriage will this be? I couldn't get myself thinking of all the possibilities and slowly walked to the bed, I lay on my side and stared at him, he seemed to have fallen asleep immediately. His head touched the pillow and I couldn't believe anything. I reached out my hand to touch him but then it froze in mid air as his second rule rang in my mind 'don't touch me' I swallowed and slowly let my hand fall, I turned my back to him and turned off the bed lamp while I prayed for the night to just be a dream. Waking up in the morning, I was surprised because the room was not familiar. I frowned my brows and only realized then that I was married. Well you won't blame her since I didn't wake up in my husband's arms. Husband? I turned to the other side of the bed but he was not there and then I heard the sound of running water and knew that he was in the bathroom. I got up immediately, went to the wardrobe and got a robe and draped over my lingerie, I walked out of the room, went downstairs and got into the kitchen. Damn, I can get lost in this kitchen, I thought. Everything was where it was supposed to be, nothing missing. It's really good to marry into a rich family, not that I was poor myself. After all, I have been living a very comfortable life. I settled to make breakfast and decided to make the fastest since he was already preparing to leave the house, or was he not? I can't really tell after all, he can't be going to work since today is actually Sunday. I made pancakes with sauce. I also poured him a glass of milk and arranged everything on the dining table that is big enough for ten people. I was about to go upstairs when I heard the sound of a door being closed and knew he was coming downstairs. He was dressed in a black suit and a white shirt. His hair as always was plastered on his head and wet like, where is he going? I thought he looked really dressed up. He dropped his briefcase on the sofa and reached to do his cufflinks. "Good morning" I greeted but he didn't hear me or pretended not to. I bit my lip and walked a little closer to him "let me help you." Kale remained silent and continued with what he was doing "I made breakfast, I hope you like it" I smiled. Kale seemed to be done with his cufflinks now and only reached down and picked up his briefcase again and walked to the door. I was shocked and watched him go, he stopped at the door without turning to look at me "when I give a rule, I expect it to be followed" with that he walked out of the house. I blinked twice and stared at the food on the dining table, what the? Last night wasn't a dream? How was I supposed to live like this? How is it possible? What the hell does he mean by that, how can I be married to him but nothing, no interaction, nothing? Fine, I get it, he is gay but that doesn't mean he has to be so cold towards me, what wrong have I done? I felt my head hurting due to the thinking and decided to leave the matter for now, when he is back from wherever he went I will talk to him. I stared at the pancakes and sighed before eating them. I went upstairs and took a shower, got dressed and decided to tour my house. I walked around the house and can't help but think that I really need a housekeeper because I definitely can't look after this mansion on my own, or maybe he already has one? The house was not only lonely but boring too. I wish to call my friends but don't want to startle them, I just got married yesterday after all. I played away the time with my phone while surfing the internet. When I was tired of the little screen, I switched to my laptop. Luck finally smiled on my face and the day came to an end but my husband was not yet back. I made dinner and hope he will be back soon and also to eat it. I sat on the sofa ready to wait for him but I ended up drifting off to sleep on the sofa. Waking up again, I looked at the time and it was twelve midnight, I looked at the dining table and the food was just the way I left it. Is it that my dear husband is not yet back or what? I felt a sharp pain on my neck and winced, I had been lying down so badly just now. I got up and walked to the dinning, stared at the food for some time and gave up waiting for me. He can come back whenever he feels like. I walked up the stairs and opened my room tiredly, I walked to the bed and fell on it like a lump of wood, I turned to the side and snuggled deeper into my pillow. My eyes slowly opened but only to see a pair of blue eyes watching me. I jumped up from the bed with a scream but the man just stared at me and turned his back to me. I stood staring at the lying figure on the bed while trying to catch my breath. When did he come back? How come I didn't hear him come in? Why didn't he wake me up? Didn't he know I was waiting for him? Why didn't he eat the food and most importantly, why give me such a scare? I almost had a heart attack just now. I really want to throw all my questions to him but seeing the way he has his back to me, I knew I would just be talking to an empty air. I sighed ?and climbed back into the bed while staring at him, after confirming that he won't turn to me again, I released a sigh and faced my back to him too before turning off my lamp light. The next day, I woke up to see the bed already empty. I checked the time and it was already 9:45, how did I sleep so late? I walked down the stairs and as expected, he had left the house. I sighed and walked into the kitchen, I fixed a plate of cereal for myself. When done, she went up to prepare for work. I searched for my car key and remembered that I didn't come with it, I took one of the car keys I saw in his drawer and went downstairs. When she got to the garage, she pressed the key remote and a black Marda unlocked, I got in and drove to work. I will worry about this new husband of mine when I get back. I got to my work and parked the car, I got down and my workers were surprised to see me, didn't she get married just on Saturday? What is she doing here? Was the thought in everybody's mind.
