Marriage and Annulment

I frowned and went inside the beach resort first and Luciana followed me.

“There are many customers, Miss, and everyone is wearing a swimsuit,” said Laica, frowning.

“Yes, but if you are not comfortable, you can also wear shorts and sleeveless shirts. No one will interfere with you, ” I said.

“We’ll eat first because I was suddenly hungry on our trip,” I told them.

I entered the resort restaurant. I noticed Tao Ching in the distance, but I ignored him but he called me. This man will never really give me peace of mind.

“What do you want?” I raised an eyebrow to question him.

“I have already prepared a table for us, Zaneska. I’ve already ordered food,” he said to me. I sighed.

I didn’t want to embarrass him and, even more, I didn’t want to be filled with tabloids the next day with bad features, so I walked over to the table occupied by Mr. Ching.

I sat down, and Tao sat next to me. And he put food on the plate he was carrying and gave it to me. And I noticed that the men with him were winking. I hate this kind of attitude in men. They make fun of me.

“You don’t have to do this. They are all there to serve me.” I was pointing to Lucianna and the girls.

“All right.” An Answer by Mr. Ching.

We started eating, and then we went to the beach to take a bath. Lucianna was already paddling in the water with the men and Mr. Ching was with me like he wanted to guard me. I stretched my neck to look at Randolf, hoping he’d follow me there. Because I’m not comfortable with this Chinese person, but the fool didn’t really come.

“Can’t you take a bath yet, Zaneska?” Tao asked me.

My eyes rolled. We seem to be too close if this man treats me this way.

“Take a swim, Mr. Ching. I’ll be right next. I’m still waiting for my executive assistant. ” I told him.

“I’ll just join you here. I don’t really like bathing in this place. ” He answered me.

My forehead furrowed.

“Then what brought you here?” I asked him.

“To be with you. That’s the only reason for me. ” He answered me directly.

I’m in the class room right now after Duke and I talked. So I checked the kids’ modules. And I noticed Veinna enter.

“Sir, Zander, Someone is looking for you outside. ” She told me.

“Who?”

“I do not know. Maybe it’s an important matter.” She said, once outside the door.

I got up and left the room to go and see the guest Veinna was referring to. The guard signaled to me that it was waiting outside the gate. When I came out, I saw Davianna smile at me once, kissing my cheek.

“I meant to come here since you didn’t make a phone call anymore and you ignored all my messages.” She says.

“I still have work. Just wait for me. Don’t worry, I’ll call you later.” I said.

“I know you won’t call me. Are you avoiding me, Zander?” She asked me.

“Let’s talk later.” I said and left her outside the gate.

It was lunchtime, and my co-teachers were in the faculty room, but I didn’t join them. I am eating alone now, inside my classroom. Duke entered.

“Why didn’t you come with us?” he asked me.

“I still have a lot to do.”

“Vienna mentioned to me that you have a visitor.”

“It was Davianna who came here. I think she wants to talk to me.”

“Is that so? Maybe she misses you. That’s why. When you are if you first, you will be looked for. Sometimes women are very complicated to think about, ” said Duke.

“Is that your girlfriend’s attitude?”

” If only I didn’t love her. I’m going to find another woman.” said Duke.

“Bastard. When Amara hears you, she will definitely leave you immediately.”Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

“I know it’s not going to happen since our relationship has already grown,” said Duke while smiling.

I nod.

“What do you think of Mitch?” Duke asked out of nowhere.

“Why? What’s wrong with Mitch?”

“Sometimes you’re occupied, that’s why you don’t think easily,” he said,

“What do you think of Mitch? beautiful or what?”

“It’s obvious, Duke, that Mitch is beautiful.”

“So what are you waiting for?”

“What do you mean, Duke?”

“Mitch is single. You can court her. The two of you fit for each other.”

“I will think first. Not just what you said.”

“All right.”

“Mitch told me that Amara’s parents are strict. How come you always hide? ” I asked him.

“I do not know. I am really afraid that one day they will take Amara away from me, ” Duke replied.

I laughed. “You are no longer children, so parents can’t interfere in the relationship between the two of you. That’s not right. You and Amara will be together if ever, but her parents, ” I said.

It’s afternoon, and my companions are already busy packing their belongings to go home. And Duke motioned for me to go home first. And I understand that. I was caught coming out of the gate and I found Davianna waiting for me.

“Didn’t I tell you I’d just call you?” I told her.

“I made sure we could talk today, Zander, so I’ll just wait for you until you go home.” She told me.

We went to the restaurant near the school. He’d better be here so we can talk. “What are we going to talk about?” I asked him while drinking soft drinks.

“About the two of us.” I laughed and he was surprised.

“Are we just kidding, Davianna? If I had any faith in you, I would have responded immediately. Why are you taking so long until I’m bored? ” I asked her. She suddenly fell silent.

“I stopped dating you a long time ago, so I didn’t call you anymore. Maybe everything is clear to you, “I said.

“Don’t I have the right to think and then answer you?” I laughed because another customer is looking at us.

“We’re not kids anymore, so we still need a long time for courtship, Davianna.” I said. So I want you to know that I’m not going to date you anymore. Because I’m tired of waiting for your decision. I said.

“I can’t, Zander.” He told me. And I noticed the woman had just arrived and entered the dining room. Mitch smiled at me as our eyes met. Davianna left suddenly and left me inside the restaurant. “I never thought I’d see you here, Zander,” Mitch said as he sat down in front of me.

“Me too.”

“Who is with you? Your girlfriend? ”

“I just don’t know.”

“Is that so?. It turns out that your clothes were left in my apartment. I already washed that. ” She told me.

“Thank you. I forgot to bring it. Get out of work first? ”

“Yes, I’m not a night owl, are you? So I went for a walk. Is Duke home yet? ”

“He left first. Maybe they will meet today. Amara was the one who guarded the coffee shop earlier. Because his parents have not come from other countries yet, ”

Will you eat it too? Let’s go together. The sadness of eating alone .

“It’s okay, too.”

And the syrup got into our food, so we started eating. When are you coming back to the apartment? I think I missed your presence there. ”

Mitch said that it seemed like nothing was said to him, but for me it had a big impact.
