14 - Whole Trip
She was shocked to see his hand now pulling at her. How to breathe? How to breathe! The strength of her heartbeat for unknown reasons. Paksh*t. She's already moved on with the guy, eh. Again, her crazy heart is easily facilitated by that online dating. Throbbing as if there was nothing left to open with too much force.
The man in front handed her the carnations he was carrying. It was as if he had accepted that. He was wise to give her a flower.
"Father you may start," Zyd's voice aroused her traveling mind, staring at the bouquet she was holding.
"Wait!" she said quickly and looked at the young man. "I have a question. After that, is there something..." she couldn't add. Too embarrassing, "Like ahhm..."
"What?"
"Honeymoon?" she asked in a whisper.
Zyd mumbled by her question and could not understand. When he recovered, his eyes widened as he looked at her.
"Suggest a place for our honeymoon then, My Elhouette?"
She, on the other hand, was overwhelmed by the straightforward English question. What is it, My Elhouette? Terrifying. But she blushed when he looked at the Father who was going to marry them and raised an eyebrow. Only then did she realize that there was something wrong with what she had asked. But she didn't mean anything else so she asked here. She just clarified that nothing will happen to the two of them. Thick! It's embarrassing.
"Mr. McCluskey?" Father's uncontrollable groan. He was now looking at the young man who was still holding one of her hands and had no intention of letting go of it until they were finished.
"Yes, Father?"
"I can suggest a place for your honeymoon. But please, let's start the ceremony first, will you?"
A man next to him with a briefcase laughed secretly but when Lianne looked at him, he looked serious and didn't say a word.
"Shall we begin?"
Zyd nodded and squeezed her hand so she was forced to nod. "Yes Father, I do. I really do!" she answered like a sh*t.
The man who gave her a flower laughed at her answer and if Zyd hadn't called him by the name 'Kodi', he wouldn't have stopped and apologized.
The Father just laughed at her answer and was shaken. "We haven't started yet, dear."
"Oh sorry."
Sh*t again! She wanted to squat in shame.
As the Priest speaks between the two of them and Zyd, she is restless. Her brain was spinning and she could see the shoes she was wearing. Wait, her gaze deepened at the bubblegum sticking to the side of her shoe. She quickly bent down to remove it when Father called to her.
"Mrs. McCluskey ?!"
"Present-" she raised her hand but immediately covered her mouth and we settled down. She secretly bit her lip when she remembered her answer.
Lianne you're fine! What's wrong with you? She wanted to blame herself for the answer. When did she become Mrs. McCluskey? When? This is probably the result of a lot of problems, insane.
The Priest who was marrying them took a deep breath while Zyd's face could not be painted next to her.
"What are you up to?" he whispered a question and narrowed his eyes.
She also raised an eyebrow at the man. "There's gum on my shoe." she pointed to the shoe. "Can we stop the wedding for a while? I'll just remove the bubble first-"
"I'm tired of this wedding!" Father said that she was about to be eaten alive when he looked at her. "Let's settle on, I pronounce you husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride," he said bored and shook his head. "Go kiss her!"
The man immediately turned to her and looked at her. Sh*t! Kiss the bride? she suddenly blushed and shivered. The speed is too much. Where will he kiss, on the lips? Not allowed.
"Father, waittttt!" she strongly objected.
The Priest looked at her and lazily waited for her to say something. Obviously holding back from hurting her.
"What if I don't want to be kissed, Father?" she covered her lip and shook her head pretentiously as she looked at the man next to her. The tightness of its grip on her hand, it was about to break too tightly.
"Really?" she thought for a moment and looked at Zyd. "Okay, you may now FUCK the bride."
"Father?!" She was shocked. "You're rude!"
Zyd laughed when they got back in his car. He almost choked on laughter as Lianne couldn't paint her face. She almost killed the man now because she felt so ashamed and annoyed. Are they married? Where is the ring? She was thrown into the air as he began to turn on the car's engine and drove down the road.
"Wew! My first laugh," he laughs as his eyes focus on the road.
He's serious now but sometimes he gets ridiculous and if she doesn't look bad at him, he won't be serious.
"I need the money," she said directly while clasping her hands. Her eye was also focused on the front. Shameless, she needed money.
He grinned and did not answer. "Read the consortium first."
"Huh? What consortium are you talking about?"
"The documents Kodi gave to you earlier."
He quickly opened the envelope she was holding. She didn't even notice that she was holding it to her annoyance. "10 pages?" She turned to the man and raised an eyebrow at him.
"With my consent, yes."
She immediately read the paper and couldn't help but look up in the air when he saw that number 1-100 was up. Wow, so many Do's and Don'ts.
1. The money will be given half the agreement after the wedding.
2. Support him in every game.
3. Don't seduce him nor show some skin at home.
4. Act as his loving wife in public.
5. He hates clingy people, be aware of that.
6. Don't try to run away, he knows your address.
7. Don't cheat while you're under the contract. You are only her, and her alone until the consortium ends.
8. No hugs, kisses at home.
9. Living under his roof is advantageous to you.
10. No sex.
Her eyebrow arched at number 10. And who does it think she's going to toot with? The thickness of its face is put in that contract. Even if he hadn't been put down, she wouldn't have done something with it. She was only a fool once, no second.
She lost the urge to read everything that was written so she just took it all home. She might read something else that would raise her blood pressure and she might not be able to control herself, so she would punch zyd.
"Ask me anything if you get curious about something that's written on the contract," he said.
She ignored what Zyd said. She decided to put the documents back inside the pouch when she frowned at the sight of a ring inside the envelope. She picked it up and looked.
"Wear that ring," the man's voice stirred her mind to fly again while looking at the very beautiful ring.
"Is this a real diamond?" Her eyes twinkled as she glanced at the stone of the ring and then suddenly bit it. She even hit it for a moment on the windshield. It was her first time receiving a ring and it was so beautiful. "How much does it cost you in Baclara- I mean in the mall?"
"That should be Kate's wedding ring."
She was stunned and turned to the man. Suddenly her face turned sour. "It's ludicrous how you asked me to wear it," she said seriously but if he noticed the insult behind her voice, it was better.
The corner of her mouth just went up at what he said. "Because you're my wife," he answered without hesitation and glanced at her. "And my wife should wear that."
She blushed hard at what Zyd said and turned her gaze to the ring. It wasn't as beautiful as she thought before, actually very ugly. She had no plans to wear the wedding ring so she put it back inside the envelope. But Zyd quickly took the ring back from her. She let it go and just stared ahead when she noticed they had stopped for a moment to one side. She was literally stunned when it reached for her hand and gently put the ring on her finger. It fits perfectly on her finger and fits perfectly in her hand.
"And now, I pronounce you husband and wife. You may now-"
"Fuck the bride," he said inwardly.
"Elhouette, rule number 10. No sex."
Only then did she remember what she had joined. Animals! She blushed profusely and turned her hand away. After all, Father kept imprinting that on her mind. The strength of Zyd's laughter and she was so annoyed that she hit the envelope she was holding. She didn't like what he said! Annoying.
"I can say, you're in a jocular mood today." Laughing, he started to restart the car's engine. "You may now-"
"Enough!" she quickly cut and smirked at him.
Zyd's laughter filled the whole trip as he teased her, which you thought they were so close. Hey, what kind of tire did he put in?
