THE PROXY BRIDE (ENGLISH VERSION)

IN master bedroom, Edward looked out the window, waiting for Rossana to come out of the gate. He waited for a second.”I think she thought about it.” He was about to leave the window when he saw Rossana walking towards the gate. “Damnit!” he exclaimed as he realized something was wrong.

Before Rossana went out of the gate, she turned to the house. Edward backed away from his position at the window.

After looking at the house, Rossana came out of the gate.

Edward clenched his fist when he saw that Rossana had come out. He can’t stop her. What will he say when he does it? He said everything  already been said. How about please don’t go because I need you for what a fucking reason? They don’t even know each other! It’s up to her whether she will come back or not. To be honest, he doesn’t care about the money he spent on the wedding. He was just so angry because of what they did, especially to Sherry. He left the window and lay down. But when he closed his eyes, he saw Rossana’s face. “Ahhh!” he growled as he stood up, headed for the door, went down, and went straight to his car.

“Sister, Rossana!” shouted his youngest brother, who was playing outside their house, running to meet her.

“How are you, Rowell?”

“It’s good, Sister.”

“Let’s go inside the house first, Rowell.”

“You will see, I’m still playing.”

“Alright, come in later, okay.” She ruffled her brother’s hair before entering their house.

“Mother,” she called to her mother as she entered.

“Sister!” Rosemary hugged her with happiness. “Why are you here?”

“Where’s mom? How is she, Rosemary?”

“She’s fine, sister. Oh, I thought you’d be home for a long time. ”

“Where is our father?” was another response to the sister.

“He said he was going to the market, Sister.”

“Alright, I’ll leave you alone. I’ll just look at  mother. ”

“Sister, take care of your mother first. I’ll rest for a while. ”

“Alright, I’ll take care of her first.” She entered the parents’ room. She found her asleep. She sat down beside her and caressed her hair. “Get well soon, mother.” She kissed her forehead. She went out because the mother was still asleep. She sat in their small living room. I am thinking about what to tell the parents.

When the father came back from the market, he came to her immediately and asked.

“Rossana, is there a problem with your work?” It sees his child’s lethargy.

“No, Father, everything was fine at my workplace,” she lied.

“Then why are you here?”

She smiled at her father. “That’s why I’m here to say goodbye to you.”

“Sister, where are you going?” The sister just came out of her room.

“Oh, why did you go out? I thought you were going to rest, Rosemary. ”

I can’t sleep, sister. I’m thinking about you. “Where are you going, sister?” she asked again.

“It’s been a long time since I applied to an agency that I didn’t tell you about.” This is what she thought was the reason for going abroad for a two-year contract. It’s been a long time since Edward thought of divorcing her at this time.

“Do you mean you will go abroad?”Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

Rossana nodded to her father.

“Sister, why do you have a job?”

“Rosemary, I will do this for you and to support your mother’s medicine. And to pay our debt, my salary is not enough, “she explained.

“Where are you going, Rossana?”

“In Hong Kong, father.”

“When are you leaving?”

“It’s tomorrow, so I came to say goodbye to you properly and to see mom too, before I take my flight tomorrow.” She had to lie to them first.

“What time are you leaving, Sister? So we can take you to the airport.

“No need for that, Rosemary. I don’t want any crying to happen when I leave. “I know you are too dramatic, Rosemary,” she joked to her sister.

“But, Sister…” Rosemary protested.

“Rosemary, if your sister doesn’t want it, don’t do it. “Rossana, you can eat here first. I’ll cook your favorite dish before you leave.”

“Go ahead, father.” There was a smile in response to the father.

While they were waiting for their father to finish cooking, the sisters talked to each other about something.

Edward went to his parents’ house.

“Son, it’s good that you go home and I’m glad you’re not with that cheating woman!” His mother’s welcomed him.

“I’m going home, mommy, to get my clothes.”

“For what, son?”

“I’m moving out of our house, mom.”

“What’s your house? Wait son, don’t tell me you’re going with that woman? ”

“Mommy, we were married. We should just be together.”

Don’t be so stupid, Edward. You might be ruined by that woman. You don’t know her at all; she might be a member of a syndicate! ”

“Mommy, no.”

“How do you know it’s not Edward, huh?” No, I won’t agree to what you want. Divorce her! She does not deserve you. And you are not either. And one more thing, you don’t know her at all! ”

“Mommy.”

“Do what I said, Edward. If you don’t divorce that woman. You won’t inherit anything from us! ” She threatened her son.

Edward shook his head as his mother’s old line threatened the children. “Mommy, you don’t have to tell me that. I have my own money, you know that. I don’t care about your inheritance. ”

“Leave your son alone, Almira. It’s like you don’t know him when he gets tired of what he wants. You know what he will do, don’t you? Let him do what he wants now, because when you stop someone from doing what he wants, There is an eagerness to do what he wants.

“But, Rafael, We don’t know that woman. She’s a user cheater! ”

“Well, maybe Edward’s heart knows it.”

“What do you mean, Rafael?”

“You know what I mean, Almira, let him have what he wants,” he repeated.

Edward left his parents and went to the room. After packing his things, he immediately went down.

“I’m leaving, mommy and daddy,” he said goodbye.

“Okay son, take care,” the father said.

“By the way, mommy and daddy, tomorrow is house blessings of my house. Can you come?”

“Sure, son, we will come,” his father answered, while his mother was speechless.

As he drove home, Edward thought he would see his wife. He doesn’t know if he feels something for her. He just didn’t know it or he just knew it. He just couldn’t tell himself that he felt a love attraction towards his wife.

When Edward entered the house, he immediately asked Nena if Rossana had come home.

“Auntie Nena, is she here yet?”

“Is it Rossana, sir? She’s not here yet. ”

Because of what he heard, he felt something like sadness. “Oh, please tell uncle Ambo to take my luggage I left in my car.”

“All right, sir.”

Edward waited in their room. Maybe Rossana is coming. He felt a longing to see her. He wants to scold himself for feeling this way. He knows that feeling of excitement. He feels this for Sherry when they meet because he knows what they do when they see each other a making love. But now, it’s strange. His heart is also with him, what he feels.

But as time passed, Rossana still didn’t come until it was night. Edward was very upset because his wife was not there yet.

“Damn! He really has no intention of coming back here! ”

He walked around the room feeling bored and annoyed because the person he was waiting for had not come yet. When he couldn’t stand it, he left the house again. He called his friends to meet at their favorite hangout bar.
