Merliah’s Point of view.
----------------
The new year celebration has just ended and I'm ventilating on the veranda. We are in Tagaytay and I'm faking my smile with Arvin's family.
Christmas eve and new years eve have ended. Arvin and I haven't talked ever since we came here. Every time he tried to approach me I pretended to be talking to Lore on the phone or else I would approach Maurice. More often I would just lock myself in the room and would go out for dinner.
During the whole two weeks of my stay, we didn't have any interaction. He also doesn't force me to talk to him.
“Don’t
----------------Maximillan’s Point of view.--------------------The notice of vacating the office came earlier. I bid goodbye to my class because it's my last day of teaching today. I heard from Maurice and Arvin through the phone that Liah is no longer in the dorm and is no longer allowed to use a cellphone without her butler reading who she is talking to. Liah is well-guarded by her butler. I stopped talking to Liah, and I also avoided meeting or even stealing a glance at her. I will leave the university quietly, so as not to complicate everything.I am expecting their parents' confrontation, right away. Fortunately, they have more important business matters to take care of. I was nervous today because I heard from her brother that they had come h
------------------Merliah’s Point of view.----------------"Congrats to us," Arvin said while raising his hand. "See yah at the farewell party later!" he added at the same time while embracing me. I also embraced him back and later we almost cracked into pieces when our circle initiated a group hug.We met at the same venue after the program, at different venues and times because the graduations per department were held in various places. Usually, graduation is held in one venue and there are different times to accommodate all the colleges, but because it is Elysian, the fee for the venues is no longer a problem.“Congratsss to us! We made it! Maurice and I can get married,” sai
------------------Merliah’s Point of view.----------------“Dean, ask for a favor. He booked as a unanimous client in one of the hotel rooms. Come quickly! You have an hour and a half to talk.”I immediately handed Lore the glass of juice, I was about to leave when Maurice took my hand."What? I need to hurry," I said.Maurice took something from his pocket and opened my hand. "Here.""What am I going to do with this?"What the heck? He gave me Durex extra thin!
------------------Merliah’s Point of view.----------------I deepened the kiss, so did he. I started unbuttoning his polo, but he captured my hand and stopped me from doing what I intended to do."Liah, let's not disappoint your parents. I want them to approve of our relationship.""I really hate your conservative mindset. I want to give myself to you before going abroad.” I’m dead serious here."Liah, this is wrong…"I placed my index finger on top of his lips and pushed him to bed. "No more, reasoning. Just let me have you today." I run my finger
------------------Merliah's POINT OF VIEW----------------------------University of Oxford, England | Graduation day.“Are you kidding me? You won't come here?! In case you forgot, today is your sister and my graduation, yet you're blubbering an excuse not to come here?" Lore's nose is breathing fire while holding a conversation with my twin brother, her fiance. These two are always fighting, but it's just subtle, and I'm used to it because they are like that in our college days."H-" Lore was about to explode in anger when Maurice cut off the call. My twin is crazy, he loves it when his fiancée gets angry.
-------------Maximillan's POINT OF VIEW.-----------------I suppressed a laugh when I saw her shocked reaction. She was still like a child who couldn't believe she could see me. In fact, she rubbed her eyes and opened them again.“What? Will you just stand there and not even hug your boyfriend? ”Liah was just one step away when her parents stopped her. I saw how she pallor as her parents hugged her, and I seemed to know what my girlfriend was thinking. She was worried that there might be trouble because she knew that her parents still did not like me. The truth is that her daddy accepted me first and only last year when her mommy welcomed me. It took me four years
-------------Maximillan's POINT OF VIEW.-----------------We arrived at the hotel and mom notify me through the phone that everything was ready. I'm nervous about what I'm going to do today. I was able to ask for liah's hand back then, but it was just the two of us. Today our family is gathered together, what if she changes her mind... What if she does not want to get married anymore?‘Are you crazy? If she didn’t want to, then she wouldn’t have waited for four years! Also, you talked about that before, didn't you? This is just formality, right?’ my brain whispered trying to calm me down."Brother, we'll head out first," Maurice and lore said goodbye in
-----------------------------Liah's POINT OF VIEW.------------------------"What do you mean?" He said as if he was going to cry. I can't help but laugh because he looked like a begging puppy."What if I don't want to?"“Liah…” His voice trailed off when she mentioned my name.~ Pfft ~ he's cute but it's wrong for me to prank him on a serious occasion like today.“What if I don't want to let you go? When we get married, there are no more arrears. As long as you live, you will be forever tied to me, are you sure?”
