Arranged Marriage: To Hear Your Voice

Gabriel and Sabrina couldn’t hold their longing anymore. He drove the motorbike to their penthouse the nearest place for both of them. As soon as they arrive, their clothes started flying somewhere on the corridor of their penthouse. Both are panting as they ended up on the sofa and that’s when the sofa was making that—sound.

She’s lying on top of his naked body after their passionate love making. Playing with his biceps, tracing her fingers to his neck and jaws. He kisses her fingers and then her top head.

”How’s the dinner?”

”Just fine.”

”Didn’t Ignacio harass you or something?”

”He can’t do that. Besides, Leandro was the host of the dinner.”

”Ignacio is still into you.” He said.

”But I am into you. You sound jealous?” She said as she put her chin on her forearm that is on top of his chest.

”I am not jealous—I am just worried that he would harass you or something.” He pinched her nose. ”How is it going with you?” She was silent for a while. Did he read her mind? Or was it something that he already know? ”Wife, no matter what you have on your mind, I am here for you. If it is to relieve your pain then I will do it.” She haven’t said anything to him about what happened. She’s just—not ready to tell him.

”I’m sorry, I can’t say anything.”

”Okay. No pressure and no rush.” He caress her hair. ”I was just wondering what makes you silent all these years. I was just wondering on how painful it could be to make you like this. And all I know is you are the strongest woman I know.”

”I could beat up twenty armed men.” She grin at him.

”I know. But I still don’t want you to beat anyone up because I am worried that you might get a scratch.” She giggles in a very girly sound. He likes it. He likes everything about her. Her viciousness, her evil and her childlike… she was just a girl back then who was pushed to grow up and to never experience what a teenager should.

He sat up and kisses her bare chest.

”Let’s go take a shower. I haven’t doted on you for days.”

He carried her to the bathroom and wash her up. After their bath, he dry her and massage her with essential oil that is good for her skin. Also, ended up making love to her since she said that they could make love until dawn.

All night they made love, and would stare at each other’s face and talk more. She had never talked much as this all of her years. She never talk to anyone but to him. She had a lot to say and on what she likes. she asked his likes and other nonsensical stuffs. That is how they learn from each other.

She fall asleep quickly after yawning. He was still watching her sleep though he was tired and had thought to himself. This little wife of his need more attention and love and he is there to give it to her.

”Why aren’t you asleep yet?” She mutter opening her tired eyes a little.

”I am just admiring my wife a little more.” He mutter. She smile and hug him tightly. ”Sabrina, I’ll always be here to carry all of your burden no matter how heavy it is.” He murmurs in her ear. She moan and she might have heard it since she’s half asleep.

Veronica was carefully frowning as she stare at the very complicated data in front of her. She have a lot of things on her hands and that includes checking the launching facilities. It was classified and it was eleven in the evening for goodness sake!

She wanted to break the computer but she exhales and maintain her composure. She can do this. She hated office work and her butt is really—numb at that moment. If she could only squats somewhere but she’s wearing the darn fitted skirt.

Her phone rings and she answer it.

”Yes?” She answers casually. It was an exclusive telephone to the COO. The COO hangs up and then calls again. She rolled her eyes. ”What can I do for you, now, Sir?”

”Bring me…”

”Oh, I’ll guess it. You need another cup of coffee. Why don’t I get you something stronger?”

”I was just about to say water or milk.”

”Great. We don’t have that.” She smile though she sound so tired. Sitting in the office making reports is more tiring than doing physical works. Because it hurt her damn brains.

”Uh, are you—still my secretary.”

”Sir, we don’t have milk in the office.” She said clearly. ”How about, we stepped out from the office for a while and grab ourselves something to drink?”

”Okay. But I think my butt is stuck in my chair. How can you help me?” She rolled her eyes. Sometimes, when they are alone, Tony attack her with his flirts.

”I can do something about that without you leaving your seat.” She hang up and went to his office. He look up at her and was curious on how she’s going to pull him up from his seat. She walk around his desk to his back and she pull his swivel chair.

”Woah!” He hold on his swivel chair. ”Wait! I’m getting up.”

”I thought that pretty ass of yours is stuck.” She cross her arms. He stood.

”Since you thought that my ass was pretty, let’s go out.” He turn off his computer and place the important documents in the drawer before locking it.

She exhales and stepped out first her heel shoes clicking on the floor. She bends to pick her wallet and her phone then put away the important documents and locked it. She turn off her computer. She felt that he’s been staring at her from behind probably analyzing her butt and her curves. She turn around and adjust her eyeglasses.

”You got a nice ass there.” he said and check her back again.

”Well, thank you. It takes me few hours to shape that.”

”So, how did you shape it?” He asked as they stepped out of the office toward the elevator.

”Yoga and squats.” She said and she push the button to the ground floor. ”The others are of course classified.”

”Classified?” he chuckled. ”Where do you want to eat?”

”Good thing that you asked, sir.” She smile. ”How long are you going to stay here in the office?”

”Launching is in three days. Our boss doesn’t want to delay anything. He dotes on his wife and he’s doing this launching for her.”

”That’s—sweet.” She said.

”Don’t say sweet. You aren’t that sincere.” She shrugged and the elevator opens as they stepped out.

They walk in the almost empty sidewalk toward the open pizza parlor. They order a big pizza and soda as they talk nonsensical things. She’s just trying to get along though she hates men. All of them with the exception of only few which are her acquaintance.

”Sorry that we have to take a lot of over time these past few days.”

”It’s been two months.” She said. ”I had been taking over time for two months.” She said clearly.

”After the launching I’ll let you have a week of vacation leave.”

”Thank you for your consideration.” She lifted the glass of soda and sipped on it.

”Where are you going to spend your vacation leave?” He asked as he keep his eyes on her and take a big bite on the Hawaiian pizza. She look at the pizza and like she’s thinking.

”Maldives.” She answer. He look at her beautiful face. She got this very peculiar beauty that he don’t know what mixes it from. But the more he looks at her, the more difficult it is to take his eyes off her.

”Can I go with you?”

”Unfortunately, no.” She immediately rejected.
