Chapter 8 - Newlywed

Boxes are scattered around and unsealed sofas and tables. It's a dream house for him. Victoria smiled and hugged him.

"Let's bring your things upstairs to our room." She said softly. He smiled and followed her upstairs. The room was wide with a very own balcony, window seat, and a table to work on, plus a Queen Bed. She pulled him to the mirror and slid it open. "This is our very own closet. I haven't put a few of my clothes there but I already save space for you."

"My clothes don't need to be hung."

"Don't be silly." She opened another cabinet and showed him a few branded clothes. "These are my gifts for you."

"Victoria, you don't have to buy me such things," Kenzo told her. For a very long time, it's the first time that he has received a gift.

"Hey," She lifted it to him. "These are just small things and I bought it on sale."

"I should provide for you." He didn't feel right with a girl spending things with him.

"I can provide for you." She winked at him seductively. "I'm sorry that we can't have sex. I just had my period."

"It's alright. You don't have to be sorry over a small thing." He said and put his bag on the corner. "I'll arrange it later."

She nodded and pulled his hand taking her downstairs.

"By the way, I don't have time to cook that's why I order food. It will arrive soon."

"I'll set up the table then."

The doorbell rang and she told him to wait. He went to the kitchen and unwrapped the table and wiped it. Victoria called him and so he went outside and helped her with so many foods that she bought.

"Why did you buy so many?" He creased his brows. He should be the one to pay for all of it. But the woman started spoiling him because he's broke. He doesn't like it at all.

"I don't know what you like. So, I bought a small platter maki and a small box of pizza. Also, there's lasagna and milk tea. We just got married so I decided to have a feast."

Kenzo shook his head and patted her.

"Next time, only order foods that would be enough for us. Or else, this might go to waste."

"I am not good at cooking but I do cook. Besides, Stacey will be here in a few hours."

"Alright, let me set things up. How about you freshen up? You looked tired."

"Okay, I will."

She tiptoed and kissed him. Kenzo never felt anyone flung him around like her. And he liked it, more as he loved it.

Caleb checked his phone once again. His friends are busy again with their work. There're at least three truthful friends that he had. Kenzo, Maverick and Hanzo. Hanzo was busy with the small business that he's taking care of while Kenzo just texted him that he needed to be with his wife which he didn't expect him to be serious about. Maverick was unresponsive for days now and he's quite worried. This time, he called Kenzo even though it's eight in the evening after a few rings, Kenzo answered.

"Hey, bro?"

"Have you seen Maverick?" Caleb asked. "I was worried about our brother."

"Yes, he's at work hours ago. Why?" Kenzo creased his brows. There must be a reason why Caleb is worried. Well, last night Maverick is not with them.

"Well, he's not texting or even joining us on our bonding. It's been two weeks now."

"We always meet on the site." He told him. "Maybe he has another sideline…"

"Hmm, yeah… alright. Tell me if he texts you." Caleb was always a dear friend to them and even cared for them even though his status in life is right on the top, while Maverick and he weren't even on the list. But Caleb loved them like his real brothers.

"Sure,"

"How's the wedding party?" Caleb grinned.

"We are waiting for Victoria's friend."

"And you aren't inviting me?"

"I could ask Victoria."

"Nah, I'll get there myself." Caleb hung up. He was about to go, however, another problem came. His father is calling. He cleared his throat and answered the call. "Yes, dad?"

"I heard that you ditch Samara again." He said in a rough voice.

"What do you mean, ditch?" He creased his brows. He doesn't like it whenever his father chooses a rich brat for him to marry. "Dad, I told you. I don't like her."

"You know well that your business wouldn't grow because of me! Now go to her."

Caleb made a scratchy noise like there's an interruption in the call and he even turned on the fan and pointed the microphone on it then he hung up.

Kenzo was done making decorations in the living room and his wife looked happy with it.

"By the way, Caleb called and asked me if he could come and I think… he's coming…"

"That's fine. Caleb is like a brother to me."

She grinned at him making an adorable pout. She seemed to be hyper and overjoyed. Just last night, she was telling him how her fiance betrayed her with her sister, now she looked happy. Kenzo stroked her hair and bent down to kiss her but the door opened and someone burst in. They turned to the woman wearing office attire. She dropped her bag and frowned.

"Who the fuck is he?" She asked, sounding annoyed. Kenzo was never fond of foul words, but who is he to judge? Best friends are always protective of their friend like a sister and he somehow admired that to Victoria's friend.

"He's my husband," Victoria answered without even stammering.

Stacey thought that she heard it wrong but Victoria pulled out from Kenzo and approached her.

"I know it's crazy but I married him last night."

"The fuck~? Did you get drunk or hit your head? I don't know that you'll get married after a big betrayal." Stacey knocked her head making her winced. "Don't be stupid!"

"We are married," Kenzo said. "You must be Stacey. I'm Kenzo, her husband."

Stacey lifted her hand toward Kenzo to shut him.

"Have you gone mad?!" Stacey scolded Victoria but Victoria pouted at her. Victoria pulled her away to the place that Kenzo wouldn't hear them.

She showed Stacey the ring that Kenzo made for her.

"This is worth more than diamond rings, Stace. He is a good man. I know it's crazy but he never takes advantage of me. Besides, he's handsome and hot." Victoria chuckled.

"Are you that horny?" Stacey creased her brows. "I should've let you pop your cherry with a dildo than marry a stranger! What if he has an STD or something?" Stacey hissed.

"No. He doesn't have that. He's clean… I'm sure of it."

Stacey felt like her blood pressure rose as she leaned on the wall. Victoria hugged her.

"He promised not to do the same as what Jason did. Besides, it's good to marry someone broke than a rich asshole."

"How is he going to feed you?" Stacey pushed her but Victoria pouted even more and looked hurt.

"I'm not wearing any makeup," Victoria told her. "He still likes me and adores me."

Stacey didn't care about make-up. What she only cares about is her and her safety. But her best friend is so stupid to marry someone that she doesn't know.

"I know~~I know that you would say that I'm stupid that I marry someone that I don't know or that I just met. But how about Jason? I've known him for years and yet there he was, a cheater and food wouldn't make him stay but to have his little dick get pleased."

Stacey burst into laughter when she said about the cheater's penis to be described as little.

"But he's indeed little," Stacey said. She saw it. "I mean, average. Not the big penises that we saw in porn."

Victoria and Stacey roared in a very unladylike laughter and they high-five.

"He's a good man, Stace. Let's get to know him together." Victoria promised her.

Stacey sighed and nodded. They went back to the great room and found Caleb hugging Kenzo.

"Congrats bro! I'll send my gifts in a few days."

Stacey raised her brows.

"What in hell are you doing here, Caleb? Didn't your father tell you to stay at Samara's house and get in between her legs?" She asked in a very frank way. Caleb reached his chest acting that he was hurt by her words.

"How could you kick me out like that, Stace? Besides, I don't want to get stuck between Samara's legs. If you only knew how crazy she is…" Caleb sat down on the beautiful sofa and rubbed it. Then, he hugged the sofa. "This can be my girlfriend!"

Stacey knew well that her cousin Caleb is something.. But still, he's like a big brother to her.
