Marriage and Annulment

He hailed a cab and drove to the bar house. He went inside first when he arrived; it was a good thing it was open at  ten o’clock in the morning.

“Good morning, I’ll get my car,” he said to the man who he knows the bartender.

“All right, sir,” he says.

He nodded and returned outside. He got into his car and began driving. H She’s going home right now so his mother doesn’t have to worry. Duke called when his phone rang. As a result, he stopped  and answered the phone.

He nodded and returned outside. He got into his car and began driving. She’s going home right now so her mother doesn’t have to worry. Duke called when his phone rang. As a result, he first stop the car and answered the phone.

“Hello, Duke, why?” he asked the person on the other end of the line.

“Where have you been? There’s a meeting at school today; you just follow even if you’re late,” Duke responded.

“What are the meetings for?” he asked.

“I don’t know, Zander, just go,” Duke said when the phone rang.

Zander drove his car right away so he could make it to the meeting on time. There is a meeting when I am not in the mood to go to school.

He arrived at the school an hour later. He jumped out of the car and dashed inside. He walked right into the faculty room. All of his co- teachers are inside.

“Now that we’re all here, we can begin our meeting,” their principal said as he walked in.

“I’m sorry, Ma’am, I’m late,” Zander said.

“That’s fine, Mr. Zander,” their principal response.

“So, in the coming weeks, we will go house to house for our students because, as you know, our students’ houses are far away in this area, so we will go to them. And because there are supplies, we will take them to the feeding programme.  Raise your hands if you don’t agree with what I said,” Their principal instructed them.

“No more, ma’am, we’re all fine with what you said,” Duke said.

“All right, you’ll start in a few weeks. Dismiss everyone,” their principal said.

Some of their colleagues were the first to emerge. He and Duke went back inside.

“How are you doing? Did you talk to Mitch about getting her back?” Duke asked.

“Why would I? She was the one who dared to break up with me; she should also come back to me.” he responded. “You know me, when a woman hurts me, I won’t chase anymore. I’m not like someone else begging just their love to return.”

Duke exhaled a sigh

“I never thought Mitch would break up with you. I don’t want to see you hurt because I know how much you love her, but you can’t force something that isn’t for you anymore. Maybe you’ve already cared for someone else and your mission in her life is done,” Duke explained.

“I’m not sure if I can love anyone else, Duke; after what happened to Mitch and me, I don’t want to gamble if I’m just going to be left behind later,” Zander said.

“Yeah, are you sure you’re all right?” Duke asked.

“Of course, I can do it.”

“Where exactly did you go yesterday?”

“I got drunk at a bar in the city, and by chance, Zaneska and I met, and she helped me and took me to her condo unit,” he explained.

Duke cracked a grin.

“Really?” Duke asked, “Why do I seem to notice something else?”

Zander smirked.

“Is there anything else?”

“What’s the matter with you and Zaneska? Maybe Mitch abandoned you because she knew you and Zaneska were together and you didn’t say goodbye to her?”

“Damn you, Duke, the dirt of your mind. The pinnacle of my respect for you and your cousin, and it’s impossible you’re saying, that woman is a millionaire compared to me. Wait, are you trying to match make me to Zaneska?” Zander asked.

“No, because I know you don’t want to get into another relationship, especially since your breakup with Mitch is still fresh, but it’s ugly to see that your ex- girlfriend bestfriend is your new girlfriend,” Duke said.

“Moron! Let’s go home!”

Duke trailed him.

He climbed into the car. He kept looking at his phone. I’m hoping Mitch will call, but the two of them are separated. He drove away from school in his car. Even though it was only five o’clock in the afternoon, he didn’t want to go home because he was sad.

Duke stopped and rolled down his window. As a result, Zander stopeed in front of Duke’s vehicle.

“Why did you stop, Duke?” he asked.

“It’s better if we go to the city first; I don’t want to go home,” Duke explained.

“We have school tomorrow, so we can’t go to the city,” Duke responded.

“Stupid! It’s Saturday tomorrow, so no school. I won’t be surprised if you forget. Where is your brain flying? To Mitch again? Stop that because no matter what you do, you and Mitch really separated,” Duke explained.

“I know, even if you don’t say it,” Zander responded.

“What, are you going or not?” Duke asked.

“It’s fine, come on,” he said.

Zander followed Duke, who had already started his car. He needs to have some fun in order to forget about Mitch and what they both went through. They arrived in the city an hour later. They considered going to Zaneska’s mansion. They got out of the car and pressed the doorbell, but they noticed the gate was open, so they just walked in. However, they discovered Uncle Conrad sitting on a bench beneath a mango tree. He appeared to be drunk because there were numerous empty beer bottles on the table.

“Oh, here you are, handsome teachers,” he said, inviting them to sit and join him for a drink.

“You’re drunk, Uncle Conrad, you’re still cheering; what’s the matter with you? You drank in the morning,” Duke said as they sat down.

“Is it just a question of who should have the right to drink?” Uncle Conrad asked.

“Mostly, that’s the reason,” Zander responded.

“You’re right, I’m really hurting right now because the woman I want doesn’t like me. The pain is unbearable,” Uncle Conrad said, punching his chest.

Duke inquired, “Who?”

Uncle Conrad explained, “Laica, the hardness of that woman’s heart was inherited from their boss.”

Uncle Conrad had mentioned Laica, and he remembered who she was. He assumed it would simply crush the woman, but it now appears to be unattractive because Uncle Conrad is no longer a teenager.

“You’re both like this  with Zander, his girlfriend dumped him for no good reason,” Duke said.

Duke would have a sore mouth when he couldn’t tell what I was going through, so Zander just shook his head.

“Seriously? Your girlfriend dumped you? Why, that woman is so unlucky. What else would she look for in others if you already have everything?” Uncle Conrad wondered.

It was assumed that Zaneska would return home because it would be late in the evening the next time. She was about to leave when the door to the office opened and Randolf walked in.

“Why, Randolf? I thought you were already home?” she asked.

“Not yet,” Randolf replied, “the girls with Calvin went to the bar, but I’m not sure.”

“Is that correct?” Zaneska inquired. “You know Calvin is courting Lucy, so he’s hanging out with them.”

“I’ll try to join them so that I, too, can find true love.”

“Of all the girls, who do you have a crush on?”

“I haven’t seen much of who I want to look for yet,” Randolf said.

“Ah, I see,” 

“Let’s go, Miss,” Randolf said, “let’s eat. This is my treat.”

He says, “Wow, this is the first time you’ve invited me to eat; you wouldn’t have thought of it if your girlfriend hadn’t left you.”

“It’s just that I know you’re my boss, so it’s awkward if I’m close.”

“You’re no different from me, Randolf,” Zaneska replied, “so it’s fine for you to consider me a friend even during work hours.”

“Let’s get going.”

They exited the office and entered the business at the same time. They got in their cars before Randolf got behind the wheel. Zaneska was not far behind. They stopped in the plaza. She and Randolf exited the vehicle.

 “What are we doing here, Randolf?” She asked.

“I’d like to eat street food, Miss; what would you like to eat?”

Randolf had enquired of her.

“Eh, Randolf, I haven’t eaten that yet,” he replied.

“It just looks dirty, Miss,” Randolf said, “but it’s delicious.”

He was sitting on a wooden bench. Zaneska was the next  and take a seat.

“Five chicken intestine sticks and five chicken liver sticks,” Randof told the salesman.

Randolf asked. “You? What do you want to eat, Miss?”

 “I only have five hotdogs, the little ones, the spicy sauce, and a coke.” She replied.

Zaneska doesn’t want Randolf to become angered, so she stops refusing.

She took a seat next to Randolf. Randolf appeared to be stunned, which she noticed.

“Are you all right?” she asked.

“It’s fine,” Randolf said, “I just remember my ex-girlfriend and I were always here, but now you’re with me.”

She replied, laughing, “What’s the difference? We’re both women.”

“What’s wrong with you, Miss? Why hasn’t anyone courted you until now? There are a lot of bachelor business people; why haven’t you chosen even one of them?” Randolf asked.

She was taken aback for a brief moment. What did she have planned for the future? Zander appeared out of nowhere in her mind. They aren’t likely to be because Zander adores Mitch.

“No, Randolf,” Zaneska explained, “it’s just not the right time. It’s not a race for you to chase. I don’t want to be like you who gets hurt. It’s scary when you’re happy and then you get hurt.”NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.

“Does anyone not feel pain? It’s only natural for people to be hurt.”

“Of course, nothing,” she replied.

“You’ve hit the nail on the head,” 

The saleswoman then placed the cooked order that we had requested. So we began to eat.

“Can I hang out at your mansion, Miss?” 

“Yes, it’s fine even if you want to live there,” Zaneska responded.
