Chapter 7 Living Together

• Bryan's Pov:
• Everyone turned to me as I felt very ashamed.
• Arianna secretly made faces at me and I felt like slapping her face hard.
• "I mean the gown is exceptionally beautiful" I quickly covered up.
• I can't let that crazy girl notice that I find her beautiful.
• "Yeah... It looks so perfect on her" Grandma said immediately.
• I heaved a sigh of relief....
• Thank goodness!!!
• I don't want that piece of garbage to start feeling so important.
• I watched her swerve her hips in the very beautiful wedding gown.
• Truth be told,,,, Arianna is actually very much pretty....
• But that doesn't matter to me anyways.
• The shopping continued as usual.
• I rolled my eyes as she eyed me dangerously.
• "I hate her guts...." I muttered under my breath.
• My cell phone rang aloud....
• One of my whore's is calling.
• I really miss banging hard on them like I used to.
• I quickly rejected the call.... I can't let grandma notice that am still womanizing else she might find more tasks for me before I can get the family inheritance.
• Arianna's Pov:
• Tears welled down my siblings and my mother's eyes including mine as I dragged my luggage with me.
• "We are really going to miss you Arianna" Mother cried.
• "I'll miss you too mother... I just need to finish up with the audition.... It's just gonna take 21 days" I lied
• "Sister Arianna please do come home after the 21 days OK?" Bibi wailed
• I pecked his chubby cheeks.
• "Of course Bibi" I said as I touched his check.
• "Pinky promise?" Laila said showing me her pinky finger.
• "Pinky promise...." I replied showing her my pinky finger too.
• We group hugged as I waved goodbye to them.
• I flagged down a cab and hopped in.
• I watched them wave at me as the car zoomed off.
• Tears welled down my chubby cheeks.
• I know this is not going to be easy but I really need to do this for the family.
• We need the money so badly....
• I scratched my head as thoughts kept running through my mind.
• The question is... How am I going to cope with Mr grumpy as his bride for 21 days?
• I exhaled deeply as I gulped.
• Let the story begin
• ********
• The door was thrown open as I walked into the church full of guests.
• With a flower in my hand and a veil covering my face....
• I walked down the aisle slowly as the audience applauded me.
• Tears pricked my eyes and rolled down gradually from my cheeks.
• I can't believe this is all just a pretence....
• Am wedding for the very first time in my life and it's FAKE.
• I sighted Bryan in front with the priest smiling pretentiously.
• "Look how real he's making it look... Curse you Bryan" I muttered within myself.
• I stood right in front of Bryan and the priest as we stared into each others eyes.
• "Bryan Adams do you take Arianna Bernardo as your lawfully wedded wife to love and to hold till death do you part?" The priest asked
• "I do..." Bryan said smirking at me.
• He's making it look so real.... I really hate this guy!
• "Arianna Bernardo do you take Bryan Adams as your lawfully wedded husband to love and to hold till death do you part??" The priest asked as I eyed him angrily.
• I kept mute for some time before speaking.
• "I do...." I said unwillingly as the guest applauded us.
• "You may kiss the bride" The priest said as Bryan removed my veil.
• "This is gonna be my first kiss so I just hope you don't make it horrible" I said with a scoff.
• He furrowed his eyebrows in annoyance.
• "You should be happy that a cutie like me will be kissing those dried lips of yours" I replied.
• "Dried but sexy unlike some people's" I said as he quickly glued his lips to mine.
• ***
• The guests clapped as I quickly disengaged the kiss.
• "You're such a pervert" I said pushing him away a little.
• He only scoffed.
• Bryan's Pov:
• Arianna and I were still dressed in our wedding attire as we drove in the car with grandma.
• "Where the heck are you taking us grandma?" I half yelled
• Grandma smiled broadly.
• "I have a wedding present for you both..." She said as I tut.
• "I can't wait to see what it is you have for us" Arianna said.
• I sighed at her as she rolled her eyes at me
• "She's so annoying!" I groaned within me.
• I stared at the wedding ring on my finger.
• "You will only last for 21 days and nothing more,,,, then I will have to flush your down the toilet" I thought inwardly as I smirked.
• Soon enough,,, the car pulled over in front of a fenced beautiful duplex.
• "Everybody go down" Grandma said excitedly as she got down from the car.
• "What are we doing here grandma?" Arianna and I chorused.
• "Taa...daaa..... You're new home" She said dangling a bunch of keys in front of us.
• We gasped in shock.
• ********
• We walked into the already furnished duplex as we were so impressed.
• "Can we go now grandma?" I asked yawning.
• "No need for that,,,, you can now live here" Grandma said as Arianna choked immediately.
• "Like right now? We're going to be living alone?" She asked sharply glaring hard at me.
• "Yes..." Grandma said as I gulped hard.
• "Oh God! How do I cope with this crazy girl all alone?" I worried
• "What about our stuffs grandma? They are not here and.. " I tried saying but grandma stopped me with a grin.
• "You don't have to worry about anything,,, the maids already moved your stuffs here" She said as I breathed heavily.
• ****
• It was already very dark and late.
• I walked into the bedroom and turned on the light.
• To my greatest surprise,,,,,, I saw Arianna already sleeping happily on the bed with a duvet covered on her body.
• I became very annoyed....
• "Hey,,,,, silly! I called as I shook her vigorously and she opened her eyes.
• "What is it?" She asked rubbing her eyes.
• "Get the fvck outta my bed,,,, you can sleep at the sitting room but this is my room" I yelled.
• She burst into laughter as I arched my eyebrows.
• "What's funny?" I asked as she pushed me away roughly and laid on her warm bed.
• "You go sleep at the sitting room.... This bed here is all mine" She said covering the duvet on her face as I gasped.......
• TBC....
