Forced to Marry a Student
There's Someone Else

“So, you made Julian go?” michela asked back while asking for a clear answer.

“It costs a lot to make him go away from your side, but all it deserves to separate you guys.”

“Why did you do that? Me and Julian are nothing and there will be no way there is anything.”

“You call him Juls. A friendly-sounding call in my ear.”

“Julian already has a lover!”

“Don't lie to me. I know all about him.”

Micah looked sharply at Arka. “You know everything? You're investigating about Julian?”

Arka did not argue. He smiled and approached Michaela. “Where do you think I can find out what he really wants? I was wondering if she would leave you for her dreams. Turns out she's not that much in love with you.”

“He does not love me. I'm confused as to why you can think that far. Your effort and money are wasted if you think he loves me and try to keep him away from me.”

“You think you can lie to me? I saw the way you interact.”

“Julian already has a lover! And they've been living together for two years!”

Arka. He was recalling all the reports Ken gave him. There is no mention that Julian has a lover and lives together.

“Julian lives with a man named Marco. Don't lie to me.”

Michaela just looked at Arka. Waiting until Arka noticed.

“Shortly. You said Julian lived with his girlfriend?” Arka looked at Michaela while thinking. “Hah? Meaning?”

“Congratulations! You finally realized it. Now do you understand why Julian couldn't possibly fall in love with me?”

“It's your fault! Why do you guys look like lovers!”

“It's just your own mind. Julian and I have never looked friendly.”

“You called him Juls! How could I not suspect?”

“Again that's none of your business. Even if I'm friendly with Julian, what are your rights?”

Arka stepped pinning Michaela between her body and the school wall. “I'm entitled to you, Micah. You are my future wife.”

Michaela felt uneasy with the call that Arka had just given her, and also the position of Arka's body that was very close.

“Call me in a polite way. I am your teacher. Please take care of your attitude. The other students can see us!

Michaela pushed the body of Arka.

“I want to have a special call for my future wife. Or, maybe you'd rather I call you with a more friendly call?”

Michaela stepped out of Arka. He was tired of continuing the conversation between them.

“Keep avoiding me. I want to see how far you can run from me. I'll tire you out until you finally give up, Micah.”

Arka let Michaela go from him, for Arka knew, no matter how far Michaela went, he would still belong to Arka.

*****

That day Michaela came home a little later that afternoon as she helped to get Julian's work done. The school has not yet found a replacement. So, for a while, Michaela will help to fill that void.

Arka, of course, was deliberately waiting for Michaela. The quiet state of the school would make it easy to force Michaela to come with him.

There will only be school guards and school guards in the afternoon like this.

“There's a lot we have to talk about.”

Arka suddenly appeared from behind Michaela as she exited the teacher's room.

“This afternoon you come with me, and I will take you home.”

“I can go home by myself. Thank you.”

Arka walked quickly and stood before Michaela, which made Michaela stop her steps.

“You have been my responsibility from today.”

“No need to bother. I'm not a kid anymore.”

Arka held Michaela's wrist and did not allow Michaela to walk away.

“Release me, Arka.” Michaela tried to look around for help, but there was no one around them.

“Alright! You choose a way that is not good apparently.”

Suddenly Arka had Michaela on her shoulders. Michaela's small body can be easily raised Arka.

“Arka! Lower me! Are you crazy!” Michaela tried to thrash and kick in all directions, but Arka did not care about it.

“I've given you a choice.”

Arka continued walking towards the school gate. The security guard who guards the school can do nothing because Ken has explained not to interfere.

Michaela's body was directly placed in the back seat of the passenger and Arka was in it.

“Street, Ken.”

The car carrying them drove and Michaela was still trying to rebel.

“Where do you want to take me? It's kidnapping!”

“You are free to report me after this. But, there's business we have to settle.”

“If you want to talk, you can talk now! When I'm done I want to go home!”

Michaela finally stopped struggling. He chose to keep his power if only Arka had been rude to him.

“I want us to talk carefully. Can?”

Michaela looked at Arka and sighed. “Good. What do you want to talk about?”

“About our wedding.”

“Our wedding?”

“Are you still trying to avoid? You signed the agreement. You can't dodge.”

Michaela took a breath to calm herself down. He did not want to discuss this with emotion, let alone someone who could hear them from behind the wheel.

“You're still very young to think about marriage, Arka. Your road is still very long. Don't you want to meet someone your age and fall in love?”

“I prefer women older than me, and I've found her.”

“I really don't understand why you insist on marrying me. You even just know me. What if there are a lot of things you don't like about me?”

“I've known you enough.”

“Do you want to marry someone who doesn't even love you.”

“But.”

Mikaela frowned. He did not understand the words of Arka.

“You don't love me yet. Not don't love me, because I'm going to change it.”

“Do not be too confident.”

“Why? Is there someone in your heart right now?”

Arka looked in Michaela's direction and it made Michaela unable to stand it. Mikaela immediately threw her face out the window.

Seeing that, Arka already knew the answer to his question. He grabbed Michaela's chin so that the beautiful face would return to him.

“I will make you forget the man, for there should only be me in your heart and mind.”

Michaela brushed off Arka's hand and turned back her face.

There was a fear that Michaela was trying to hide from Arka about someone in her life. A person who had great power in Michaela's life that made Michaela not have the freedom to decide what he wanted.

“I want us to get married soon. You can ask for a wedding as grand as anything. I'll grant it.”

“You won't be able to marry me, Arka. You better forget me, because I can never be yours.”
