Chapter 51: Chapter 50

“I need to know my position in your life. What do you think of me? Straight to the point, what are your feelings for me?” She yelled.

“I-”

“Argh! I’m simply asking you if you love me or not?” Teresa shouted in frustration, not even letting him speak.

“Let me speak, would yo---”

“Do you love me or not? Because I love you!” She shouted impatiently.

“What? Say it again.” Ryouma came closer.

“Look what you made me say? Cancel it, cancel it. I didn’t say anything and you didn’t hear anything okay?” She shake her head violently.

“But why?”

“Because you were supposed to say it first, idiot. Now look what you made me do! You’re always messing up my plans. I was not supposed to fall for a demon like you but look at me I fall for you every single minute. I mean I was supposed to hate you right? You’re so mean, not good to me at all but every time I see you my heart participates on a marathon, when you’re near me, my heart beat skyrockets forget that... I can’t even breathe properly and your smile, let’s just not talk about it," She laughs. "because that...that nearly stops my heart. Wait does that mean I like bad boy types?” She thought for a minute. “Whatever, But I thought since I lost already at least I’ll have you confess but no.....” She paused. “wait a minute just now did I confess everything?” She shouted at the realization.

He nodded.

“Oh damn, see this is what you do to me. Cancel it, cancel it, I didn’t say anything and you didn’t hear anything. Haven’t you heard the one who is confessed to has the other wrapped around their little finger? Argh! I could die of embarrassment.” She whined. “No, I can’t stay here anymore.” She walked to her closet and started to pack her things.

“What the hell are you doing?” He stopped her.

“Packing my bags.” She replied.

“I can see that too, but why?” He shouted.

“I breached the contract see and why should I stay, if you think I like my best friend after all these things I’ve done just for you.” She glared at him pointing her hair. “Why should I stay when you don’t even love me? ” She started to cry.

“Who said I don’t?” He pulled her close and kissed her softly on the lips. “Do hell with this contract! Who said you can leave me? I won’t allow it, never. Just calm down.” His forehead rested on hers.

He placed her hand over his heart which was beating crazily. “This is what you do to me. Only you, no one else made feel like this ever before.“He cupped her face and looked into her eyes. “Just a sight of you makes by heart skip a beat, you’re bad for my heart.”

“You crashed in my perfect life and made me a complete mess, I can’t even think straight anymore. I always knew what I wanted, everything in proper place, everything under my control but since the very first day you came, my whole life has taken a 180 degree turn.You’re the one because of whom I don’t even have control over me anymore, I even surprised myself with the things I’ve done, that you made me do, the things I would’ve never imagined i’d ever do. I never lost my cool never, but from the day you entered my life, I’m never calm. If I see myself now, I am not the man I was a year ago, you make me think that sometimes being mess is good too, you made me change and I didn’t even realize when I started to love this change. I was not really a jealous type and I never showed my feelings to anyone but you surprisingly crumble my calm composure, I can’t even stand anyone touch a single strand of your hair. You bring both the best and worst out of me. Your smile lightens my world up and your tears want me to burn down the entire world and after turning me into a mess, from which I see no point of return to my old self, I don’t even want to return, I already can’t imagine my life without you. Heck, I don’t even want a life without you, I won’t allow you to leave me. Take responsibility I won’t let you run away. You’re mine and I’ll destroy every single thing which even has a small possibility, to take you away from me.” He confessed.

“that’s more like a threat!” She frowned.

“It is and you don’t need to do anything to make me like you, I was already yours, even before I knew it myself.” He hugged her.

“that means all that I’ve done up until now was a waste? I feel sorry for myself.” She clicked her tongue. ” Ah! I’m so tired... So warm....” She hugged him back.

“Teresa?” He called out to her but didn't get any reply. “Asleep already? Seriously, you never fail to surprise me!” He carried her and made her lie in the bed comfortably. He sat on the floor with his chin rested on his palm, looking at her lovingly.

“Does she even know she’s already got me wrapped around her finger?” He muttered as he played with her hair.

Morning

“Ouch my head hurts as hell.” Teresa muttered coming out of the washroom. She stopped on her way when she saw her husband holding a tray with food.

Ryouma’s P.O.V

“What is this?” She frowned.

“Your breakfast.” I replied with a smile.

“I have eyes, idiot. But why’s it here? I am not that unwell, I can go down for breakfast.” She retorted.

“yeah but I thought you’ll be happy to have breakfast in bed.” I placed the tray on the table at bed side, keeping my hands around her shoulders and walked her to the bed.

“Something happened? You hit your head somewhere, why are you so sweet, out of your character early in the morning?” She looked at me with confusion.

“I didn’t hit my head or something but someone did try to stab me with a knife last night. What is so weird? Now can’t I even prepare breakfast for my wife?” I raised my brows.

“Someone tried to stab you? You’re okay?” She asked me with worry in her eyes.

“Wifey, that someone was you.” I looked at her and raised my brows. “Wait, don’t tell me you don’t remember anything about last night?” I frowned.

“last night? I did something?” She tried to recall.

“After making me say all those things...Don’t tell me?!”I frowned. There's no way I'll repeat those again! I glared at her.

Suddenly something lit in her eyes. “Oh last night? What happened? I remember nothing, absolutely nothing.” She bit her nails and avoided looking me in the eye. Oh she remembered and she doesn’t know how to lie at all. I thought and smiled.

“Look at me. Teresa, you just remembered right?” I lifted her chin until her eyes met mine.

She then jumped into the bed and covered herself with the blanket. “Shut up I don’t want to live anymore.” She shouted.

“Teresa get the hell out of that thing.” I tried to pull the blanket but she wouldn’t let go.

“No!!! that wasn’t me, the one last night here, wasn’t me I swear!!” She denied.

“Teresa, get out of there right now.” I tried to pull the blanket again.

“No, I’m embarrassed to death! You’ll tease me my entire life now.” She whined.

“Okay I won’t. Come out now.” I sighed.

“Promise?” She popped her head out of the blanket. She looked so cute, I kissed her on the lips.

“You jerk!” She shouted ducking her head back inside.

“Sorry I couldn’t help myself, you looked so cute.” I laughed.

“Sh...shut UP!” She shouted.

“Did you just blush?” I teased her more.

“I didn’t.” She denied.

“Come on wifey, don’t be so cruel I want to see your cute blushing face. You can’t do this to me.” I pulled the blanket but she wouldn’t let go at all.

“You’re not coming out? And yesterday you were so bold enough to corner me. Ah what a waste, I even prepared you breakfast and I thought we would go on a date today, I was trying to be your ideal husband but seems that..”

“YOU READ MY DIARY??” She got out of the blanket and shouted.

“It was just by chance.” I replied.

“You don’t know, you’re not suppose to touch other’s personal diary?” She glared at me.

“But I’m your husband!” I pouted.

“AND SOON YOU’LL BE A DEAD HUSBAND! GIVE BACK MY DIARY!” She jumped out of the bed and started to chase me. “Teresa, no! You’ll be a widow.” I ran.

“Like I care, you’re so dead today!” She came at me with her fist aimed at my face, but I pulled her hand and cornered her against the wall.

“What the hell are you trying to do?” She glared at me.

“Nothing, just looking at you.” I replied tucking her hair behind her ears.

“.....” She blushed bright red and I couldn’t help but smile. There’s nothing like seeing her face flush red, she’s just so adorable.

“You’re such a jerk!” She said lowering her eyes.

“Thank you for marrying this jerk.” I closed the gap between us with a kiss.

Third person’s P.O.V

Office

“Why isn’t Ryouma here yet?” Rihito asked Ryouma’s secretary.

“He’s on leave, sir.” She replied.

“Okay.” He nodded. “Teresa is also not here yet.”

“Did Teresa actually break his head or something?” He thought placing his finger on his chin.
