I patiently waited for him. Even though I appear all confident and arrogant, my inner self was shaking with mixed emotions. Confusion, guilty, anxiety, worry... also a bit of excitement, I don't know why I have that . I didn't tell my sisters about my marriage... how will they react when they come to know that I got married to this guy?? Am pretty much sure that none of them have a great impression on him... It made me somewhat sad.
A brand new Ferrari reached the porch and from driving seat Jake came out. His face contains no expression, just like mine.
" Got ur ID card with you?" , that's the only question I asked him before getting inside the passenger seat.
Instead of speeding up the car, he turned towards me in his seat and fixed his gaze on me.
" Why do you want to get married?" , his irritated sound mad me feel bad but ...
" I just don't want to be someone's fake girlfriend"
" So u can be a wife?"
" Yes, a fake wife... in this way also you will get your shares. After one year we can get divorced , that's it. " With that I looked straight to the front. He kept silent for a minute, then he started the car.
We soon reached the office , before I get out from the car, he spoke again
" You can't have any extramarital affairs" , his statement surprised me, coz I wasn't thinking much about the rules and regulations of this marriage.
" Am not planning to do that. I expect that from you too."
" I hate women" , he told me ," only knows how to cheat others" , he murmured the last sentence under his breath.
I heard it but I chose to ignore it. Maybe he has his own reasons.. who cares , right?
With his status and all, the legal formalities came to an end in the snap of time. Now we are legally husband and wife.... wow!!!!! Who would have guessed that 'we' would get married one day...
Jake took me to his house as he wants me to explain our marriage with his family along with him. Now I need to show my acting skills, am damn sure he's going to get a mini attack from my performance.
I gave my hand to him , and with a nod we entered the home. Am really trying not to freak out. Even it is all a part of our plan, am still getting nervous for meeting his family as his ' Wife ' . Mr. Sebastian and Mrs. Linda knows me well. They are such a lovely couples. Whenever I see them, I used to think about my own dad and mom.
I heard alot about Tiffany , his younger sister. But never got a chance to see her as she was doing her fashion designing studies abroad. From what I heard, she's also a sweet girl resembling her parents. Then y the hell this guy , my so called husband doesn't seem like one among them!!!! Maybe he's adopted or something... should I ask him?
Maybe next time.. let's face this situation now.
Mr. Sebastian was sitting on the sofa enjoying his coffee and reading something. As we entered his peripheral vision, he raised his head in our direction and smiled so brightly at me, he does that always... such a nice man... and here I am standing to fool his kindness.
He welcomed me to an embrace and patted my head like a father....
" You made me so happy dear, I always considered you as my own daughter. Now you became my son's love... my heart feels so content" , my eyes became slightly teary. Kaashhh.. If this isn't all part of a plan.... I could only hope like that.
His mom also joined us and kissed my forehead.
" I was beginning to think that you are a gay" , his mom was genuinely pleased as he got himself a girl, that too Me.
" Mom.. " , Jake got irritated by it.
" What?? You never brought any girls here.. so u can't blame us" , Mom defended herself.
" It's okay Linda, now our son got the best girl , I can't ask more" , Dad kept his smile and side hugged his wife.
Am somewhat getting jelly by this cute couple.
Jake took my hand in his own and smiled sweetly at me, then he brought our hands to his face and kissed my palm.
I was too stunned and soon I remembered that it was all a drama, so I acted my part. I put my head on his shoulders and with a shy smile I looked in his eyes...
His eyes were clearly screaming the word ' Surprised' at my reaction...
He tiled his head towards his parents and dropped the bomb...
" Dad, Mom, We are married" .
