Chereads / The Fake Marriage / Chapter 5 - Chapter 4

Chapter 5 - Chapter 4

One year ago

I was sitting at the bar counter when suddenly a girl fell over me, I sighed looking at the girl, she ran her hands over me seductively. Well, it's nothing unusual, many girls deliberately try to get my attention.

"Hey! How dare you touch my girl?" A guy grabbed me by my collar.

"Dude, isn't it the other way around?" I rolled my eyes at him.

"Don't you dare mess with me!" The guy shouted, his breath stinks of alcohol.

I yawned and blinked at him. I don't have time for this, I don't want to ruin my mood, "Sorry, bro." I didn't want any trouble here, I'm way over the age to start a fight with a drunkard, so I raised my hands in surrender.

"Better!" The guy laughed and went his own way. I shook my head, but wait, I'm sure I've seen that guy before but where? I tried to remember. Just then my date's voice pulled my attention, "Hey! Why did you apologize?" She glared at me. I scoffed, let's forget the guy and have some fun here, "Because I don't want trouble." I replied as I pulled her close wrapping my arms around her waist and kissed her tugging at her lower lips, she moaned. Suddenly it struck, "Oh yes!" I pushed her away and stood up.

"What the hell?" She glared at me.

"Sorry, but I'm not in the mood to play today." I winked at her. I reached for my phone as I walked away from the bar, her curses dissolved in the background.

"Hey, feisty princess. Whatcha doing?"

"It's just 2 am and I didn't have anything to do so I'm swimming instead of sleeping." I heard her growl.

"Oh, you're wearing a hot swimsuit? I prefer a bikini though... hot black one at that." I chuckled.

"You bloody pervert! Let people sleep!" I heard her shout as I immediately pulled the phone away from my ear.

"Hey relax. I was just kidding okay? I need to tell... no show you something very important." A devious smile played on my lips as I spotted the guy from before.

"Just go to hell." I heard her annoyed voice.

"Eros, the gross, where is he?"

"Why the hell do you want to know?"

"My dear feisty princess, if you want to know about your dear bf then you can come here... no you must come here. I'll send you the address. If you don't then I swear I myself will bring you here and you won't like it so just come 'kay?"

"It better be something important." She warned me.

"Oh trust me. This is so important that you'll be indebted to me."

"Fine. If it's not important, be prepared I'm going to turn it into your funeral, you're going to die tonight."

A few minutes later

"Why am I called at this cheap place?" Rina grabbed me by my collar nearly strangling me. "This is the so-called important thing you wanted to show me?"

"Hey! I'll show you after you release me, please?"

She finally releases me. I straighten my shirt and lead the way. Should I make a video of this to show it to Teresa later? She'll love how Rina will beat the crap out of her Eros, the gross, I grinned as I open the door for her. "After you, my lady."

She rolled her eyes but obliged. She immediately turned around and glared at me. "How dare you show me this!! Disgusting!" She pointed at the couple on bed, doing 'naughty' things, who were oblivious to our presence until of course, she spoke, more like shouted.

"What the?" Her so-called boyfriend, Eros glared at me.

Rina froze at her spot.

"Don't turn around until I say so," I whispered to her.

"Hey, Eros." I waved at the guy. "You left this at the bar." I tossed the wallet at him. He looked at it carefully and smiled looking at the money inside the wallet. So happy with the money he didn't even notice I called him by his name.

"Thanks. You may leave." He smiled.

Bast**d! Teresa was right about him. The gold-digging basta*d.

His eyes then stopped at Rina. "Oh, she's with me." I smiled at him.

"So what are you waiting for man? Get out?" He raised his brow at me.

"Sure. wait, I think you would want to know about this, actually, I just saw a girl downstairs... she was blabbering that she'll bring some Rina girl here to expose you or something?"

"Oh, that must be Teresa! Damn that girl! Why can't she just mind her own business? Anyway, thanks for your concern but she's done that like 100s of times, now Rina won't even listen to what she has to sa— Rina!?" Eros shouted in horror.

"YOU JERK!" Rina shouted.

Oh, now the fun begins, yippee! I grinned. Suddenly Rina stormed out of the room. Huh? Hey! Where's the beating out of shit? usually, she goes throwing punches at my face without a reason and now?

"Hey, Rina! Damn! And here I was expecting some action!" I ran after her.

"Rina!" I shouted but she ran and disappeared into the crowd.

Looking around for a while, I finally managed to catch her out at the pavement. "Thank god! Hey!... don't.. make me... run... like that!" I said trying to catch my breath.

"Hello?" I waved my hands in front of her face but I didn't get any answer from her.

"Rina?" I peered into her face and my eyes widened in surprise. I was left speechless, I pulled her into a hug and patted her head. "I trusted.... him....over my best friend." She said in between her cry. "Hush... it's okay." I kissed her hair.

Flashback ends

I laughed looking at nervous Rina, "just a few minutes ago you were beaming with confidence 'I'll just go with the flow' and now you're such a scaredy-cat. "

"Do you have the confidence to deceive your Grandy?" She glared at me.

"Umm... no." I looked away. "But we have to go." I sighed.

"Go alone!" She retorted.

"You leave me with no other choice." I shook my head.

"eep!" She yelped as I picked her up in my arms.

"Hey! What the hell? Put me down!" She yelled.

"Sorry, but we need to do this." I smiled at her and walked to the house as she struggled to free herself.

This is going to be tough!
