Celina quickly tried to cover her chest by crossing her hands over it
"A massage"zain said
"what?"Celina asked looking confused and a .... little scared
"A massage ,and some cookies , milkshake and a song to go with it"
"o, really?"
"what were you thinking?"
"nothing, I will bring your food but I don't think I have the songs that you will like"
"Did I say you were gonna play the song?"
Celina stared at him confused"huh?"
"I want you to sing for me"
"sing?you are joking right?"
"do you see me or anyone else laughing?"
"I can't..."
"don't even think about lying cuz I know you are into music, you are always listening to songs and I know you are also in the music club"
"Are you stalking me?"
zain chuckled"you wish ,I just happen to notice your....likes and skills"
"why do you even care?"
zain sighed ,why did this suddenly look like a question and answer show?
"first I don't care, I just want to make sure that my wife's voice isn't like the sound of a damaged engine because of lack of proper practice. imagine if you are asked to sing in public , it would be soooo humiliating . i don't want you to ruin my reputation "
"your reputation?it would be MY voice"
"well we will be husband and wife ,so we would be one ,you know two bodies and one soul. And besides it my family name that you will be using ,so it my disgrace. And secondly ,can you go get my snacks now?if you don't give them to me when I want ,I won't give you the keys"
Celina gritted her teeth but gave zain a sweet smile
"wait here, 'hubby' "
Then she turned around and left. minutes later ,she walked in with his milkshake and cookies. Then zain started eating
"Hey , don't just stand there,come and start with the massage. my shoulders hurt from all the talking"
'Duffer ,how can your shoulders hurt ,when you are using your mouth to spout nonsense' she thought but still maintained her sweet smile and moved to his back, massaging his shoulders
"wow ,this feels sooo good "zain said relaxing
"um... can I start singing now sir?"
"Do I have to tell you?do you lack common sense ? should I buy you one?"
Celina sooo wanted to break his bones but all she could do right now was try to calm down 'calm down Lina, this will be over soon. just till you get the keys, just till you get the keys....'she kept repeating in her mind when zain's annoying voice brought her back to the present
"ugh... nevermind. here ,just take the keys. I don't want to be deaf anyway"
He gave her the keys and she turned to leave.
"Hey princess, don't you know how to say thank you?"
"Thank you!"
"you are welcome"he gave a taunting smile"And besides I didn't do it for you,am just scared that you won't be able to resist a magnificent creation like me and may try to....you know"
Celina ignored his remarks and left
"stupid,rich brat"she mumbled all the way to the guest room .
....
Jason sat in his room staring out the window. He felt numb, he was feeling a certain emptiness in him ever since he heard the news . was this truly the end?
"Hey can you snap out of it? it's not like you are going to die"thena said,
She had followed her brother minutes later after he came up. And she met him sitting like it was the end for him. Jason turned towards thena ,his eyes looked so pained, he looked like his whole being was broken .
"you won't understand"he said weakly fumbling with his fingers
"sigh... you are right about that"she said while taking a seat beside him
"she is getting married thena, she...moved on. I guess I .....I was too late"he said the ending in a whisper.As if afraid to say it in the first place.
"There may still be hope"
"how? ,she is getting married "
"it an arranged marriage jay"
"so?"
"so?!!!. okay let me explain. it an arranged marriage and most arranged marriages don't have love as the main criteria. so it could be possible that Celina doesn't even love this zain guy. And if that's true...."
"Then I can possibly win her back"Jason's mood brightened immediately
"yep. it isn't going to be a walk in the park but it is kinda possible "
Jason got up and hugged thena tightly
"hahaha....you are the best sister in the whole world. Thank you,thank you,thank you....."
"cough,cough,cough...you welcome but can you please let me go now?you are choking me"
Jason then let her go"oops.....(giggles). sorry".
