Tutorial for Marriage

Page 2

"Ano ka ba, Mr. Stevensons. Minsan lang 'to, sulitin na namin." my dad joked, and the oldies laughed.

Umupo na kami and as we eat, they begin to ask questions. "How was your first meeting, then?" mom asked.

I was about to answer when the dragon spoke. "It was good, your daughter is very very intelligent, Mrs. Wilsons." he said.

"That's great. Mukhang magkakasundo kayo for the six months na magkakasama kayo for the tutorial." my mom said and I choked in my drink.

"Careful, sweetie." my dad reminded me.

"Six months?!"

I apologized, nagulat ako syempre. Six months ko makakasama yang dragon na yan? jusko.

Blagden smirked. "Yes, you're not informed?" he said as he raised his eyebrows.

Tatanungin ko ba kung alam ko? Duh. I rolled my eyes before smiling sarcastically at him.

"Yes, hija. You will be staying with him for six months because your bar exam will be six months from now, right? He'll help you. He took law too." Mrs. Stevensons explained.

Wait, what?!

"Stay with him?"

"Ye--"

That's it. I stood up. "Woah, wait. I thought tutor lang? Why do I need to stay with him?" mom tried to reach my hand but I refused to let her hold it. I looked at Blagden who's busy eating. I moved my gaze to Mr. and Mrs. Stevensons. "With all due respect po, excuse me."

I made my way out of the kitchen. Nasa kalahati palang ako ng hagdan, someone grabbed my hand.

"Alair..."

I rolled my eyes before facing the owner of the voice, of course, it's the annoying dragon.

"Not now, Blagden. I'm not really in the mood."

He made a face like it is obvious. "I know. Come." He said before trying to pull me with him.

"Just come. Let's talk about this, Alair."

Wtf? He sounded like we are a couple with an argument. Eww.

"Pwede ba? I'm not really in the mood na makipagusap sainyo. You even planned without me." I exclaimed.

He tsked before pulling me again. This time, he used some of his strengths, of course konti lang ginamit niya. Hinila niya ako hanggang sa makarating kami sa garden ng bahay namin.

He let go of my hand before putting his hands on his pockets. "I was just informed yesterday about this. Obviously, wala rin akong alam na plinano 'to."

"Eh, bakit ka pumayag?"

"Bakit hindi?"

Kumunot ang noo ko sa sinabi niya. "Anong bakit hindi? Ang busy busy mong tao tapos mag tututor ka lang. Magkano sweldo mo ha?"

He whispered something that I can't understand. "You."

"Hoy, ano?"

"Nothing. Don't you want to make your parents happy, Alair?" panimula niya. "They did everything to give everything you need and make you happy. Ang gusto lang nila is turuan kita for you to become successful. Choosy mo, ikaw pa tumatanggi."

I gave him a disgusted look. "Talagang tatanggi ako sayo, hindi ka naman pogi. And will you stop calling me with my second name? Ang annoying na nga tapos sayo ko pa naririnig."

He let out a deep chuckle. "Your name is pretty, though. Like the owner." hindi ko narinig yung huli niya pang sinabi.

"Tigilan mo nga kakasabi niyan at imbis na kiligin ako kagaya ng mga patay na patay sayo, mas gusto pa kitang suntukin." inis kong sabi sakaniya.

"Why do you hate me so much?"

"You stole my first kiss, bastard." I rolled my eyes.

"Okay. I'm really sorry for that." nagtataka akong tumingin sakaniya. Nagsosorry siya imbis na sabihin na maswerte ako.

"May sumanib ba sayong espirito?"

"Silly. I mean, girls treasure their first kiss so much. Well, yung sayo, Raul pushed me and it's not my fault if my lips landed on yours." he explained.

"You think it's nor your fault but you said sorry." sarkastiko kong tugon.

He made a funny look. "Men are born to say sorry to their wives even if it's not their fault."

"I'm not your wife, idiot."

"Soon."

"What?"

He shrugged before looking at me."Let's just do it for our parents Alair, okay? It's just 6 months."

Kahit labag sa loob ko, tumango ako. I crossed my arms before looking at the flowers in front of us.

I felt that he is about to leave.

"Kailan tayo lilipat?"

He stopped before looking at me with amusement. He showed me a smile.

"Later, student."

Ang bilis yata?
