The Arrogant Wife

"I now pronounce you, husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride." Pagkatapos sabihin ng pari iyon, humarap sa akin ang lalaking hindi ko kilala. He is cold as ice and I am lucky enough because I don't have to make things complicated. We both know that we both don't want this marriage. He lifted the veil and stared at me coldly. "This is just a kiss. Huwag mong bigyan ng malisya," malamig niyang sabi, ang mata ay titig na titig na sa akin. I smiled sarcastically at him. "Don't worry. We don't need to love each other. I want your money, not your love or your body." Kumunot ang noo niya sa akin sa akin at napasinghap ako nang marahas niyang hinapit ang bewang ko kaya sobrang lapit na namin sa isa't isa. "Of course. I heard from my parents that my bride loves money. I can give you that," bulong niya sa tainga ko. "Just let me have you for at least one night and I will give all the luxury." I smirked. "Of course. After all, I am your wife for at least a year." Hindi na niya ako pinagsalita at diretsahang siniil ng halik sa labi sa harap ng maraming tao. Pumikit lang ako. I heard claps from the visitors when he kissed me. Nang kumalas siya ay ako ang nag-iwas ng tingin at humarap na sa madla. This is a fixed marriage. I don't know who is this man. Alam ko na ayaw niya rin sa ganito dahil narinig ko na may girlfriend ito. Well, I don't mind. Ang importante sa akin ay ang pera. After all, this man beside me needs a wife with a powerful surname. He needs me and all I need is his money. He can have me for a year, and after that we will annul. Iyon ang nasa kasulatan. Ang suwerte niya. Siya ang nakatali sa akin. Many men want me to be their bride but because this man has a lot of money, my parents and I agreed. But unlucky to him, he got an arrogant wife.
