Two Can Play That Game Sequel to Playboy Rehab

"No! I don't want to marry that man".

"Axel. Darling", Mom tried to hold me, but before she could do that, I backed away from her.

I shook my head at her. "I am just fvcking 20, mom", I tried not to cry in front of them but failed. I can feel my tears running down my cheeks.

Fuck. When will this end? It's tiring to cry every day. When will mommy and daddy stop forcing me? I want to be back to our old relationship. We're just having fun. There is nothing like this. That we almost fight everyday just because of this fucking arrange marriage.

"I said I don't want to be married yet but why are you two forcing me to marry that man", I pointed to the door as if the man I was referring to was there, even though there was no one standing there. "Tell me! Why?".

but mommy couldn't answer, and she just looked away from me in tears. My chest tightened even more because of what she did.

This is what always happens when I ask them for a reason. They have been pressuring me for several days, but they never gave me a reason. Our restaurant is fine, and it is not going to bankrupt, we're not going to be poor, so that cannot be the reason why they're going to arrange me with the son of a billionaire that I'm not even sure if their friend.

I looked at my father, who was sitting on the long sofa behind Mommy, so he would be the one I was going to ask. I was hoping that he would tell me the reason right now, but he was not looking at me. Instead, he was looking in another direction without any emotion on his face.

I laughed. "No one will still answer me?", I bit my lower lip and closed my eyes tightly as they were both still silent.

"Tell me, please", I begged them, still closing my eyes tightly, but when none of them spoke, that's when I lost it. I approached the nearest vase I saw and hit it with my hand, causing it to fall and break on the floor.

"D-Darling", I heard mommy crying to stop me, but I didn't stop and went closer to another vase, violently taking it from its place and throwing it on the floor without a second thought.

"AXELIANA ROSE RIVERA", I heard Dad shout when I was about to approach another vase that I saw to break it too. But instead of being afraid of his shouting, I looked at him and bravely met his eyes that were angrily looking at me. If earlier he was sitting, now he is standing with his fists clenched as if he were ready to attack me if only Mom didn't stop him.

"George, sit there", Mom gently pushed him back to sitting, but he just stood up immediately. "George, what the hell?".

I violently wiped my tears from my eyes and bravely met his evil gaze. "What, Dad? You're going to hurt me? You're going to punch me."

"Axel, enough", Mom stopped me, but I didn't budge.

"Alright, come here and hurt me, Daddy. Hurt me if you feel that the pain that I'm feeling right now is still not enough because of the way you two forced me", I shouted at him.

"Axel, I said that's enough", Mom stopped me again, but I still didn't stop.

"I thought you two loved me, but what you're doing right now makes you look like useless parents.", the pain I felt increased even more when mommy violently approached me and gave me a strong slap on my left cheek.

My head tilted because of her slap. Her face was immediately filled with regret for what she had done to me.

"D-Darling", mom tried to reach and hold me, but I immediately stepped away from her.

I don't want this anymore. I cannot take the pain anymore. I took a few more steps away from them. I could see the shock on Daddy's face because of what he saw that Mommy did while Mommy still looked at me with regret.

"I'm sorry, A-child. Please don't go away from mommy. I didn't mean to, child. Mommy loves you", she cried, and her eyes were full of regret.

"I hate you, Mom and Dad", I finally said to them, and I violently wiped the tears from my cheeks before turning my back on them.

I don't want to be here. The more that I stay in this house, the more I get hurt.

Since they started telling me that they were going to marry me, I have never been happy in this house. Back then, if I had a problem or was hurt, mommy and daddy would greet me with a hug every time I came home and the pain that I was feeling would vanish like a bubble. When I'm crying, just a hug from mommy or daddy makes me feel at ease. I was happy immediately. But now, since they told me that, I haven't experienced all of that. I never experienced the joy of coming home because they would only tell me about getting married to the man that they chose for me.

"Axel! Don't turn your back on us. We're still talking to you; don't be rude", I heard my dad shout, but I pretended not to hear anything and continued leaving the house.

I'm still wearing my nightgown, but I don't care anymore. I don't want to go back inside the house because they will only force me with that stvpid fvcking marriage.

I honked so loudly that Manong Pedro opened the gate in a panic. I almost hit him because I was trying to get out of the house in a hurry.
