Marga's P.O.V

One of the things that bothered me was the thought that Klark and I couldn't sleep next to each other. Not because I wanted him to be by my side, though I was expecting him to be, but because of his children, who were living with us under the same roof.

What if they interrogate us? What will I use as an excuse? What should I say?

Even though Klark's children were unaware of what was going on, I was concerned on the first day. They were unaware of the truth. They only knew Klark liked and loved me, so he married me to be a second mother to his two children.

I also don't know what I'll say to the kids if they ask, even though they only know I'll be their mother and their father's wife. If we sleep separately, what if the kids ask? What can I say?

Is it true that the room is cramped?

Is that correct?

Of course, they won't believe it, and the entire room is quite large.

That we're not at ease with each other?

No, it does not. Yes, and we're not really comfortable together, but that's a big question for the kids because they already know Klark and I are married.

So, which couple does not feel at ease sleeping next to each other?

We could be lucky.

That we are still embarrassed?

It's extremely embarrassing, but the kids will still question it because it's unusual for a couple to have a separate room, especially the shy ones.

Why would you marry if you are shy?

Perhaps that's what they believe.

After all, where do you find a couple who are still embarrassed?

Yes, of course, I am. It's just the two of us. Even though we've known each other for a long time, I'm the one who is more shy around Klark.

I have the impression that every time I wake up, it is a new day for me. At the same time, it feels like a new sensation that he is always new to me.

I'm embarrassed; perhaps Klark and I are awkward because we don't interact deeply like other people in a relationship.

We don't really have a relationship; we're just legally married. If there was any previous interaction, it was the kiss we just shared after marrying the judge.

I'm not sure what I'll say if the kids bombard me with questions.

But why do I continue to have issues with the two of us?

Klark must be feeling the same way, after all, he decided that we shouldn't sleep together, and if he doesn't care what the kids say or what might be questioned, I won't ask about it either, especially since it appears unintentional or unwilling.

What else can I anticipate?

"I'm starting to get annoyed with him... ugh!"

I keep telling myself that this is all a ruse. This is simply a contract that must be followed. That's all there is to it.

I sighed deeply.

I sagged out of bed, picked up the suitcase, and made my way to the walk-in closet.

It's quite large, and it appears to have a lot of space that can hold a lot of clothes and accessories in case I buy more.

Mama didn't send the other clothes because I reprimanded the others a little, which is why she told me to buy clothes; after all, she said I had money, and Mama couldn't avoid telling me to change my clothes, especially since I looked like a wife.

*Reminisce

"Oh, dear, what are you doing with your money? Purchase a dress that is not cinched around your waist. You're going to look terrible. You're married, so you should show some skin on your body! You're hot. For me, your complexion is stunning, so why do you hide it? Having children right away will be difficult for you and Klark!"

"Mommy! W-What exactly are you saying?" I apologize to Mom as I return the clothes I want to the suitcase.

"You know what, dear, your father doesn't care what you're wearing. You're a woman now, so you can wear whatever you want." Mom grumbled as she helped me pack my clothes and double-checked the clothes I should bring.

"Simply follow my advice, dear. I won't miss you looking simple to your future husband now that you're married. You must be absolutely stunning! So I'll handle your makeover."

When I remembered that earlier, I was a little shaken.

I let out a long sigh.

I'll miss Mom and my siblings in less than a day, a week, or even a single day. But I'm going to have to get used to it.

I'm not a fool, based on what Mama said, don't understand that. I couldn't help but fall on my forehead when I saw their gifts to me, pure lingeries and especially to Klark's mother who has a lot of short dresses and concentrated night gowns with the brand Victoria secret. There are even bras and panties that are almost too thin and most likely lack fabric. Oh, no.

What is the name of this dress? I don't like it. As a result, I'll just wear my clothes. Fortunately, the majority of the clothes I brought were conservative and well-dressed.

In addition, there is a large mirror in the front. I just opened the suitcase and took out some clothes to put on. Then I'll just put it back in the right place and continue to be lazy.

And when I finally entered the bathroom, I was exposed to the extent of it; there was a bathtub with electric scented candles on the side of it that I knew were plugged in to shine, and there was also linen in front of the sink. There is also a large mirror and plenty of personal hygiene products, which is fantastic.

I can say it's nice; no matter where I look, there are no visible flaws in the design; it appears to be flawless.

My husband is an expert at this.

There is a separate glass window there for there to shower inside. Because I was more drawn to the bathtub, I filled it with hot water and seasoned it. Fortunately, the equipment here is cutting-edge, and even though the house's color is vintage, the new equipment will not be defeated.

I just soaked for a few minutes, my thoughts faded for a while, and I chose to relax for a long time before falling asleep. For a brief moment, I set aside whatever was bothering me.

Remembering the scenarios from earlier in the wedding. A lot has happened during this time. I didn't think our marriage would last, so I almost refused to agree. But he persuaded me. There is no denying that he is both my weakness and my strength. We must face this great test challenge together.

While I was blow-drying my hair, my mind was preoccupied with what would happen the next day. Because a new chapter in my life will begin tomorrow.

New beginnings with a husband and children. Mrs. Villaverde's ruse was unmistakable.

This is the life I chose. Is it crazy that I said yes? True. And I know that this mania will alleviate my anxiety about the promise I made to my best friend.

I just hope the days with them go well because I appear to have a lot on my plate, and I do.

It's my decision, so I'm going to face it.

I need to be prepared for how I'm going to feel. I don't want to put too many expectations on myself. Because I know I can leave with him at any time. I'd rather be a good mother to my kids. That is the main reason I agreed. Just for the sake of their child, whom I adored as if he were my own. Just like I promised to my best friend.

I know nothing about marriage; this is the first time I'll be experiencing it, and it appears that I'll be rehearsing my own experience by the time I find a new loved one. When it comes to Klark, I don't know much. Even though we're in the same place, I suppose it's time to get to know him better. Will I be able to spend time with him? How much longer can the two of us stay together? Is it going to last? How's it going? I have stronger feelings for him. I'm afraid... one day he'll fall into his traps without even realizing it.

I sighed deeply.

I can feel Shaina's reaction to the fact that this is how her husband and I get along.

And as I thought I could not help but be stunned by the absence.

'Shaina?' says the narrator. Are you content? That we have finally come together? We have fulfilled your request. A request that was a little hazy for me. 'Shaina, what do you want to happen?'

Is that all there is to it if we pretend? The blur, as if it were extremely hazy. I'm not sure I understand. Why did we marry when Klark was only allowed to marry another woman? Dun to his preferred woman, not to me, who is not his type.

But it has already occurred.

There is no such thing as a delay... We truly live under one roof, and if others look at us, they will see that we are a complete family.

"This is your new home... welcome home, self."

It is now up to them to spin my world. Pay attention even if you're pretending to be a whole family. However, socializing and caring for them is real. Shaina's ability to raise and serve her own family well could more than double or triple what I would do. It's not a joke, and it's not a sham because what I feel, and how I feel about them, is genuine. The only lie Klark and I tell each other is that there is nothing between us. The rest has vanished.
