"Hello mom, is everything alright? " I asked and all I could hear was my mom sobbing.
"Mom, what's wrong?" I asked already panicking.
God, please let all me well with my dad.
"It's your dad," she said and my heart sank. Please God let him not be dead.
"He had a heart attack and he's in an even worse condition than he was," she informed and I heaved a sigh of relief. At least he was still alive.
"We have to do the surgery now."
Surgery? But we don't have enough money for that yet.
"But mom we don't have enough money for that." I panicked on the verge of tears.
Where can we get that much money for surgery?
"I know Shayan, I'm thinking of taking a loan or selling the house," she informed.
"Loan?" I
SHAYAN'S POVWe didn't go to work that day, we went shopping. He bought me a lot of things like jewellery, shoes and clothes, perfumes and makeup, he virtually bought everything a girl would need. At the store we got a lot of stares, people were wondering if I was the fiancée while Kel was being affectionate smiling and caring while I was playing the game too."So we're going to be living together in my apartment till we get married.""Okay, so when are we getting married? ""I suppose you heard when Jones stated it," he replied.What would have been hard in saying the date? I tried remembering when and remembered when he said we had less than two months. GreatNow that we're alone in the car he's going back to his unaffectionate self as I care.I got out my phone from my bag and saw several texts and calls from my parents and colleagues, they were probably going to ask if the news wa
SHAYAN'S POVI was sitting in the sitting room munching popcorn while watching a movie on Netflix when Kel came in. I was thinking he was going to walk away but he walked up to me dropping a package on the table and then left. I opened the package to find the latest iPhone and I'm not going to lie and say I wasn't excited because I am. He was probably embarrassed by the one I was currently using but I didn't care, I've always wanted an iPhone and he got me one.I went upstairs to his room knocking on the door to gain his attention, he opened the door and I realized. His tie and suit were gone and the first three buttons were off. His body was amazing I wouldn't deny that even if it was just a glimpse I caught."Are you just going to stand there staring at me or you have something to say?" He asked irritated."I just want to say thanks for the gift," I answered and he just frowned."It's not a gift, I just gave it to
SHAYAN'S POVWe were in the venue of the show, it was The Anny Deserati show. It was one of the biggest shows in New York in which several celebrities were interviewed and never did I think that I will be on the show. I was quite nervous, I've never been comfortable with speaking in front of the crowd and now on a live show with a vast audience, thousands or millions of people could be watching and with just one flip they'd know that this is fake.I was in the dressing room, touch-ups were added to my makeup and the stylist was making sure my hair was still in place."Two minutes to show time" someone announcedI was getting nervous, what if they found out about this being fake. I'd be in a lot of trouble. I looked at myself in the mirror and I looked different not like the poor girl I knew but like a rich sophisticated lady. I had on a simple white gown, diamond earring and necklace and a white six-inch heels and of course the engagement ring.Kel
SHAYAN'S POVThe next day I was packing a light bag, I was going to visit my parents. My mom wasn't replying to my text or calls and I had to know how they were faring. I came out of the room with my bag and purse only for me to find Kel outside the room. I had planned on sneaking out, he wasn't even supposed to be hone by now."And where do you think you're going to?" He asked angrily"To visit my parents, now excuse me" I answered trying to get past him."And what's the fifth rule?"I have no idea what the fifth rule is but seeing as I'm about to leave I guess it was the prisoner rule."I don't know and I don't care to know" I snapped moving past him.He forcefully pushed me towards him giving me his famous glare and for a second I was scared, why was he as angry as he is?"Let me refresh your memory, you're not to leave this house especially without me" he ordered angrily.His anger was pissing me off, he didn't buy
KEL'S POVI introduced her to some business associates and then my mom had a word with her telling her more like warning her not to hurt me. After that, I introduced her to Carlos my best friend. She didn't look so pleased to see him and I knew it was because he was the one that revealed her secret to me. Carlos was trying to make a conversation but she was just replying in monotone. It was funny watching her being so uneasy.We had to dance and so I took her to the dance floor, the spotlight was on us and it enhanced her features. She was beautiful I'd give her that. When I saw her I was dumbfounded, I know she's pretty but seeing her like this was surprising. We were the centre of attraction as everyone stood watching 'the loving couple' dance.My hand was around her waist holding her firmly while her hands rested on my shoulder as we danced to one of those romantic songs. She was looking away from me and I wondered why. She was supposed to l
SHAYAN'S POVKel and I had no interaction during the week, we didn't even see each other. He left early and came back late. I was always bored having nothing to do. I've taken up a hobby of watching TV or going through gossips about us on the internet. I was even going to ask him about getting a job but I doubt if he'd answer me."We're having breakfast with my mom tomorrow," Kel said announcing his return.I turn shocked to see him as he was home early by seven. "Okay," I replied nonchalantly."We're also taking pre-wedding photos you don't have to worry about clothes it's over there," he said then walked away from the sitting room.I sighed after he left, I was regretting my decision already and we weren't even married. I wanted to work so I could get back the money I used on my father's surgery and give it to Kel so I could end the deal but I knew he wouldn't allow it. He came back a few minutes later showered wearing a white te
SHAYAN'S POV"You wouldn't do that." he sounded so sure as if he knew me too well as if he had a plan. "Don't dare me Adrios, we both know what I'm capable of doing." I threatened further meaning every word I said. "Yeah, I'm sure we both know that you're capable of doing absolutely nothing." he retorted staring at me with hatred. Angrily I got out my phone, went to my Instagram, added a picture of us together and wrote. "It's all fake, Kel and I don't love each other, there's no wedding." I read out to him and all he could do was laugh. "I dare you to post that Miss West." he coldly dared to smirk. I didn't take dares lightly, not especially when I'm angry. He seemed so confident that I wouldn't and I just had to prove him wrong. Just as I was about to post it my phone was yanked away and it was no one other than his mom giving me a hard
SHAYAN'S POV" I just want you to be there, I want you guys to come, I can't do this without you. It would mean a lot to me if you guys come please." I begged and I could see Kel relaxing a bit. I was actually going to tell my parents but knowing what they will think of me stopped me and also I wanted to taunt him. I wanted them to come because this was going to be my first and last wedding, I wanted them to be part of it. "Please leave Shayan and please don't come back except he's gone." she opened the door wide for me to leave and I could see the tears slip from my eyes. "We'd leave but I'd love for you to come, if not for me but Shayan, it would mean a lot to her." he took my hand and I just let him take me out. I was shattered. As soon as we got to the car I started crying. I hated this whole thing, I hate the deal. I hate that I'm getting married to Kel, I hate that my paren
