52. The new pang of guilt(part-3).
I went towards the door and opened it and saw Dad and Ron. They both came in and were shocked to see Martin inside my room.
"Martin, when did you come?" Dad asked with a surprised tone."Last night, Master. I'm sorry for not informing you about my sudden disappearance. I will make sure this won't happen again." Martin apologized with a bow."It's fine, son. Explain it to your dad, he was worried sick about you." Dad said in reply."I'm sorry, dad. I should have informed you at least." Martin apologized again."Promise me this won't happen in the future," Ron asked."Promise," Martin replied immediately.Ron let out a small weak smile in reply. I'm sure he's going to answer hundreds of questions once he reaches home."Are you both ready?. We need to get down." Dad broke the silence."Yeah, just about to leave," I replied."We both will be at the aisle, then," Dad saRelated chapters

They did hair setting and makeup for me and Martin and we both got ready. The hairdresser and the makeup artist left the room leaving me and Martin. "How do I look?" I asked after inhaling deeply. "Perfect," Martin replied with a small smile. I nodded my head slowly in agreement. Martin came towards me and kept his hands on my shoulder. "You need to relax," Martin said while massaging my shoulders. I nodded my head. "Adam, you are not relaxing. Come on, inhale and exhale deeply." Martin said in a soft tone and showed me how to do it. "I'm trying. It's my first time getting married. I'm a little tense." I replied while doing the same as Martin suggested. "You always talk stupid when you are tensed," Martin said while leaving my shoulders. "Everyone will get married only once, damn it." He replied and hit my shoulder gently. "I know," I said and exclaimed. "You will be fine, jus
Married To My Rival. 54. The kiss of hatred.
I walked down the aisle that was decorated with beautiful and colorful flowers, that perfectly reflected under the sun. Even the sun today was not that shiny. It hid behind the clouds making the weather warm and pleasant.I saw my relatives, friends, and other people sitting on either side of the aisle and in front of me was the person I hate most in the world, Adam Harrison. He looked like the star that's shining in the dark sky. He looked perfect in that tux and the way he's standing.....I can see girls looking at him without even blinking and when it came to Martin, he's always the cutest..... but today he did look stunning.Only if Ralph can see him, he would have fallen head over heels for him. The slow music started playing making me come back to the reality that I was marrying my enemy. Even though he looked stunning, his behavior still reflected in front of me. My brain flashed the memory of the past few days we met like a projector. I really am scared thinking
Married To My Rival. 55. We feel the same hatred and disgust.
I was waiting for someone to get up and speak when I heard a voice from my side. I looked aside and saw Martin standing up. He was preparing himself for his best man's speech."I'm excited to listen," I whispered beside him."I never thought that one day, I would be standing in front of all of you and give a speech or...more like my opinion on my precious buddy, Adam on his wedding day. First of all, Congratulations Adam and Evelyn.I knew Adam since we were 5. It would be best described if I say, we both grew up together. I saw his sulky behavior, anger, friendship, calmness.....love" Martin looked at Adam when he said that."And all sorts of emotions. And every emotion he gets.....was way over top than others. His emotions are exaggerating, they are too much to bear. But...all those emotions are pure from heart and nothing else. It feels like it was yesterday, he left for Australia for his higher studies, and today he's sitting with his beau
Married To My Rival. 56. She's mum's choice.
We sat for lunch and the best part of embarrassment has started, making a toast. Mrs. Lawrenson started the embarrass the newlywed's ceremony, she's so cool. She stated facts and problems and the solutions for the problems.I really have to thank her for the solutions even though they weren't many. Then Mr. Lawrenson gave the speech and finally it was dad's turn, he said things I thought he didn't remember. Well, looks like oldies remember good.After that........Martin stood up. He told me things he really meant and I saw pain and happiness in his eyes. It broke me seeing that but I was happy at some point. His words made me realize that he finally started moving on from me.....for real. That was the best thing I can ever ask for.I stood up and hugged him tightly as soon as he finished the speech. Next, it was Celine....she told me things about Evelyn that maybe....only her knows. But why does it feel different? The way she looks at Celine was the same way Mar
Married To My Rival. 57. Grateful to Harrison(part-1).
Mum died of leukemia when I was 5 years old. That was when my life took a huge turn. I didn't know if it was a sad turn or a happy one. I didn't even know what is meant by death at that age. I just know that mum was gone.....and she's never going to come back. The last time I saw her smile was when on the hospital bed when her long silky hair got shaved. It was a stupid age that I asked her what was the reason for it. At her funeral, I just sat on the ground away from everyone crying in silence. I just know that I felt a hand as small as mine on my shoulder. I looked up to that person lifting my head and that's when I saw a small boy, so fair and as same as my age. Standing in front beside me. "It's okkay, don't cry." He said in his small baby tone and handed over me a tissue. "Thank you," I replied after clearing my hoarse voice from crying. "Is that your mum?" He asked while pointing his tiny index finger towards mum's grave.
Married To My Rival. 58. 'Mum'(part-2).
I got ready for school at home. I was excited to go to school. "You ready, son?" Dad shouted from downstairs. "Coming," I replied and went downstairs to see dad. Dad inhaled deeply and kneeled in front of me. "It's your first day. I'm sorry I can't drop you. You will be okkay on your own right?" Dad asked with a small smile. "Yes," I replied with a big smile. "Good, let's go," Dad said while standing up. Dad drove us to Hairrosn's house and I met Ma'am and Adam in the living room. "Adam," I said while going towards him. "Martin, you shouldn't address young master by his name," Dad said with a serious tone. "Ron, don't be serious on the little one. I asked him to call Adam by name, he was addressing Adam as young master till yesterday. They are of the same age, let them be friends." Ma'am said with a smile. "Okkay, madam," Dad replied with a bow. "So you both ready

"Well...." Master paused. I was scared to hell with his words and tone. I shouldn't have called Ma'am as 'Mum', master must be angry. "Can you call me dad too?" He said after a few seconds of silence. "What?" It wasn't me who said that. It was mum. "What?. Honey, he calls you mum and me master. It's unfair. Martin calls me Dad ." Master said with a soft smile. "You scared the child, Mathew," Mum said as she came towards us. "Oh, I'm sorry. It's my tone, I can't change it." Master replied while shrugging his shoulders. "Martin. Call me 'dad'." Master asked me. I still kept my face down, it really feels different and I'm really scared to call master a dad. "Dear, don't put pressure on the poor kid. He's scared, see." Mum said as she grabbed me in her arms. "Oh, it's fine. Just call me dad whenever you feel like it. Okkay?" Master said, to which I replied with a head nod.
Married To My Rival. 60. Huh, I'm in love with Adam(part-4).
It was our first day of high school and mum told us the same thing 'Don't beat others together'. At least in middle school, that fight happened in our second year but in high school, it was in the first few months. When we came home, we both didn't bleed much but yes there were signs that we got into a fight. "What is it this time?" Mum asked. Even she got used to our fights. "A guy threatened Martin saying he will beat him if Martin didn't do his homework," Adam explained. Yeah, that part was right but he didn't tell mum the whole thing. I rejected doing his homework and he caught me by the collar and was about to punch when Adam punched him and.....that's how the fight broke out. "I declined it. But he didn't stop and tried to beat and..." Mum stopped me from completing a sentence and spoke first. "And that's how the fight broke out and you two didn't start it. Is that what you are gonna say?" Mum asked while folding her hand
