Everyone wants to be me. Who wouldn't? I've got the looks, sexy body, money and Andrew Maru Ottave, my husband. But if they will only knew who I really am and what's happening in my life, I doubt that they want to be in my place. Since I was a child, I don't have a right to choose the person I want to be with, because my parents already arranged it for me. Its not actually a new thing with the elite. Because even my parents is a product of an arrange marriage. They marry for business and have a child for business. And just like my mom I will just also be a business wife.
"I'm sorry Alex, but we are not possible." I said coldly to the person in-front of me.
Alexander Monte, one of the hottest guy in our campus. Many girls are dreaming to be his girlfriend, but not me.
It's not because I don't like him nor I don't love him, its just that I don't have the right to love because I only exist for my family's business.
Alex is a good guy and a good friend. But I can't lead him on. I don't have a heart to love.
I want him to stay with me as my friend, but because of what he did, I need to stay away from him.
I'm actually pissed because of what he did, I lose a friend AGAIN. I make it clear to all of them that they can't like me because I can't. How many times do I have to keep telling them for them to understand that THEY CAN'T LIKE ME?!
"Mara why can't I love you?" He said. Sadness is visible on his voice.
"You know why." I said almost a whisper.
"But Mara I'm freaking rich! If you are telling me that you only exist because of business... then so be it. My family's business is a good asset to your family business. So I don't understand why we can't be together!" He said almost pissed.
I just look at him with no emotion and said "My family has already chosen the guy that I will marry. And it's not you."
His forehead furrowed. "Who is he?" He whispered.
"Maru."
I saw his defeated expression. Just hearing Maru's name he knew that he has no way to win.
"Sorry Alex." I said before walking away from him.
When I reached home, I went straight to my room and lie down on my bed.
I close my eyes and I just let my tears to flow.
How many friends do I need to lose?! Why do they keep on liking me and break the rule?!
What I did with Alex is not easy.
As I said, Alex is a good friend, he's actually one of my closest friends. I really want him to stay but unfortunately I can't.
I was 10 years old when I understand my purpose.
My Dad married my Mom for business. There is no love in them. I am not made out of love, but out of obligation and business.
I was also in the same age when I knew who will be my husband.
He is Andrew Maru Ottave.
What a great choice! Maru's family is the richest family in the Philippines, they belong in the top 10 richest people in the world.
Maru and I knew our future.
But we never became friends nor lovers.
Both of us give no effort to know each other, nor tried to be friends at least.
We saw each other in school, but we never approach one another, even just to say hi or hello.
Even when we meet in some events, we never approach one another.
Just like Alex, Maru is also known in school. He's actually the hottest guy in our campus.
We both knew our destiny. I chose not to commit in a relationship because I don't want to hurt someone because I knew that I can't fight for it.
But unlike me, Maru choose to be in a relationship.
As what I've heard, Maru has been with Jana, his girlfriend for years, and he seems serious with him.
I just shake my head at that thought. What will happen to them when we get married?
That's exactly the reason why I'm avoiding commitments. I don't like complication, because we both knew that we can't do anything about it.
Our life is not like a drama in television. Because we knew that even if we tried to fight for it, it's impossible for us to win against our parents.
They will just make the people we love live in hell. And in the end we will just give in to them and accept defeat.
There is only one thing I allowed my self to love. And that is business where I am made for.
