Stuck In The Wrong Marriage

Happy reading….

Hera’s eyes immediately opened wide. She got out of bed feeling uneasy.

“Oh my God, what happened?” asked Hera to no one. Because there was only her in the room. She looked around the place. Wondering where she is now.

There was faint sound of gurgling water from inside the bathroom. The owner of the house was taking a shower. Quickly Hera who was not wearing anything got up from the bed. Picked up her clothes that were scattered on the floor and quickly put them on.

After that Hera immediately ran out of the place carrying her high heels. Hera really looks like a thief. The woman could only breathe a sigh of relief when she was already in the taxi.

“Please touch me. Please!”

The image of her begging to be touched made Hera curse herself. She just wanted to disappear from this world. Really.

“Why can I act disgusting like that? Aish?!” annoyed Hera hit her own head. As if scolding her.

The taxi driver who was taking her looked at Hera confused but the woman didn’t really care.

When she got home, Hera immediately soaked her body in warm water. Trying to forget what happened. But the thought of the strange man fondling her made Hera unable to calm down. Why is he acting like that?This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

Apparently bathing can not make her feel calm. Hera got up from there and cleaned herself up. In the mirror in front of her, Hera could see several red spots adorning the neck and chest.

“Damn it! Why did that man leave his ownership mark here?” cursed Hera did not accept.

But what could Hera do now? There isn’t any. Everything has happened. And she could only hope that he wouldn’t run into that silver-haired man.

“Where have you been, Hera?” asked Anne when she saw Hera had just come out of her room.

“I-I just woke up,” Hera lied.

Anne clucked there. She knew very well that Hera was lying.

“Don’t lie! I know you didn’t come home last night, right?” said Anne as she folded her arms across her chest, peering at the child.

“I was with my friends,” Hera replied nonchalantly. The slender and white hands grabbed the bread that had been prepared by the mother on the table. Smear it with chocolate cream and then eat it.

“Which friends, Hera?” It turns out that the mother is still not satisfied either.

“What’s wrong, Mom? Besides, I have to enjoy my single life before that ridiculous wedding happens,” Hera said clearly when she was furious.

“So you agreed to marry Mr. Elvis’ son?” asked Anne with a smile on her face.

“I have no choice, right?” Hera even asked back.

Anne, who was very happy because her daughter finally agreed, immediately hugged Hera tightly.

“Thank you very much, Hera. You have agreed to this marriage,” said Anne sincerely.

While Hera could only sigh softly. She just hoped that nothing would happen that could harm her with this marriage.

“Oh, Jayden’s mother called Mom today and she suggested that you and Jayden go on a few dates before your wedding,” said Anne after letting go of her hug.

Hera finished her bread first before replying, “Dating? Should I?”

“Of course. You should get to know each other and I’m sure you’ll fall in love with Jayden. He’s a good man,” said Anne praising her future son-in-law.

Hera smiled and nodded slowly. “All right. It’s up to you,” she said turning to return to the room.

“Get ready! Jayden’s coming for you in thirty minutes!” Anne shouted to Hera.

“Okay!” replied Hera.

Date? Hera never even imagined how she would date a man. Especially with the man sitting next to her. Driving with one hand for some reason made him look very cool in Hera’s eyes.

“I thought you wouldn’t agree to date me,” Jayden started the conversation.

“I’m bored at home,” Hera’s alibi shifted her gaze to the front.

“Ah, I see. It turns out that I’m just an escape, apparently,” said Jayden, making Hera a little uncomfortable with his words earlier.

“That’s not it—I mean— well you know right?” Unlucky. Even Hera stammered.

Jayden chuckled a little at Hera’s madness. “You don’t need to be awkward like that. I was just kidding,” he said, inviting an annoyed chuckle from Hera.

“So where do you want to go?” Jayden asked.

“I don’t know. I’ll just go with you,” said Hera because she didn’t know where to go.

“Okay,” said Jayden.

It didn’t take them long to finally arrive at a place that Hera thought was very unique.

Art gallery.

“You like coming to places like this?” asked Hera, turning to look at Jayden for a moment.

The man nodded slowly. “Yes. Coming to the art gallery is like diving into another world where I can enjoy various things in the beauty of a work. And of course to add knowledge too,” said Jayden. Can Hera guess that the man in all white clothes is a science maniac, especially in the arts.

“Wow!” One word just slipped out of Hera’s mouth.

“Come in!” led Jayden to walk first while Hera trailed behind him.

When they arrived inside, they were greeted with various kinds of sculptures and sculptures. The deeper you go, the more beautiful the longest painting can be seen on the wall.

Hera turned to Jayden. The man was standing in front of a painting. Hera decided to approach Jayden. Staring at the painting which Hera admits is quite confusing.

“Is this your first time coming to a place like this?” Jayden asked without taking his eyes off the painting.

“No. This is the second time. When I was in college I’ve come to a place like this. Doing research for college assignments,” said Hera.

“Is it fun?”

“Enough fun….” Hera nodded slowly. “We can also study together as you say.”

Jayden chuckled. “Grateful if you can enjoy it too.”

From the side Hera could clearly see how the small hole on Jayden’s cheek formed when he smiled. Very sweet.

“Jayden?” call Hera.

“What is it?” Jayden asked finally turning to Hera.

Unlucky! That gaze made Hera feel awkward and nervous to say what she had wanted to say for a long time.

“What’s wrong, Hera?” Jayden asked again because Hera didn’t speak.

And finally the woman made up her mind and looked at Jayden seriously.

“I accept this matchmaking.”
