It’s been a week since my parents announced that I will marry the son of their potential business partner. Sinubukan ko silang kausapin tungkol doon pero kinabukasan ay umalis din sila at hanggang ngayon ay hindi pa sila umuuwi. What am I going to do? I don’t want to marry the person I’ll see for the first time tomorrow.

“Oh right, I saw Nicolo earlieㅡ” Hindi naituloy ni Arissa ang sasabihin dahil naibuga ko ang kaiinom ko lang na milkshake
