Arranged Marriage: To Hear Your Voice

Sabrina is sweating as she continuously beating the mannequin. It was today. She kicks it harder and exhales catching her breath. Her whole body was heated up. She wants to work up her whole body as she keeps remembering that it was today.

She was about to continue but stopped when Ethan warned her. She reached the water that he gave to her.

"We can't change the past." He said.

Their stepmother did plan a grand birthday for them every year though they knew it was the day their mother died and the day when she almost died as well. He wrapped her in a towel and hugged her.

"Ayioo… I don't want to be dramatic this day."

The same day—their mother gave birth to them was also the same day she gave her life to her to save her. She wrapped her arms around him and her lonely eyes become fierce thinking of how she will avenge her mother. Step-by-step, to torture them slowly until they wish to die quickly.

"It will be fine. We can do this."

Gabriel is watching them from the door. If he only knew that she will be like this on the very important day of their lives, he would have hugged her all day and comfort her. She's an independent woman, but he wants her to be dependent on him.

He understood that today was also the death anniversary of their mother. The mother who carried them for nine months and suffered a lot before and after giving birth to them.

After watching her, he decided to prepare a warm bath.

He went to the kitchen to personally cook breakfast for the triplets since it's their birthday. Their mother probably surprised the three of them during their birthday. He never knew Aria would be there to prepare Ethan's favorite dishes.

"Can I help you?" Aria is surprised. "I mean, I have to at least make something for my fiancée and I plan on cooking them breakfast as well." He said. He never really talked this close to Aria as Aria was one of his outstanding employees though she's new.

"No problem. The three of them love their mother's soup. I usually cook this soup for Ethan and he told me how he remembers their mom cooking it for them."

"Okay. What else?" he helped her prepare the ingredients. He knew her favorites but he has to learn more about her.

"Uhm, for Sabrina, she eats a lot in the morning. She likes Berry and Yogurt Smoothie, toast with a poached egg on top and fruit salad. Enzo liked Sweet Potato and Black Bean Breakfast burrito, brewed coffee and omelet rolls. Ethan likes soup but he likes granola more and heavy food."

"Got it. How do you make a poached egg?"

"It's very simple but sometimes hard to perfect."

She started giving him instructions. She added a little amount of vinegar on the hot water and stirred, crack the egg and pour it slowly as it forms an almost perfect round egg. After a few moments, she picked up the egg with a strainer spoon and place it on the towel tissue to drain the water, then gently, she placed it on top of the toast.

He repeated the same process, at first it wasn't perfect but he made the second one more palatable and perfect. She showed him how it will look, how it should be and he got it immediately. Next, He made the Smoothie since they had all the necessary ingredients for their menu.

The butler had prepared it, especially for this day. Ferdinand is watching the two preparing the breakfast. Aria would make a perfect housewife for his son. She knows what Ethan likes and dislikes. He just wished that Ethan would worship this woman, love her and adore her more. Not like what he did to his wife. His Ana.

Gabriel. And as for that man, he surely cherished his baby girl. He left the kitchen and went to his study to sort the gifts he personally prepared for his triplets. He bought a private island just for the three of them. It was hectares and they could own a resort there. But the island was still untouched and he wants the three of them to enjoy it.

♡♡♡

After two hours, she took a warm shower and headed to the garden. Gabriel left a note with a flower. And she was touched by his message and the flower from her mother's garden.

To my only Koala,

Sweetheart, find me in your mother's garden. It's a beautiful day and to me, you are the most beautiful woman.

Love, Gabriel.

She went to the garden and found Ethan there kissing Aria and twirling her around. While Enzo who was still sleepy and had a messy hair was also surprised. He was dragging Catastrophe with him. She already guessed what happened to both of them because Enzo seemed to be satisfied and by the way, Catastrophe walked, one could tell that Enzo did a lot more last night.

"Woah!" Enzo hugged Gabriel and kisses his cheek. Gabriel pushes him away and Enzo also hugged and kissed Aria on the cheek. "You guys! This is the best gift ever."

"Wait for our gift later," Ethan said with winks. The three of them make a secret complicated handshake. It just looked so cool. Aria admired them and as for Catastrophe, she never saw her boss interact with her brothers and this is the first time.

She didn't feel warm seeing it. Gabriel pulled Sabrina into his arms as he kisses her forehead. She then pushes him a little and jumped on him. Like a koala, she clung into him. Enzo wasn't single yet he still suffered from his sister's PDA. If Catastrophe could be like that. It will be hard for him to resist her.

He enjoyed the food he rarely could eat after their mother died. He just wished that every day would be like this. Their mother prepared them their favorites and uses twists from the food so they won't get tired of eating it.

"Try this. This taste like mom's cooking." Enzo put the egg roll in Catastrophe's mouth without giving her a chance to interject.

"Enzo, do you really have to put Catriona in a difficult position?" Ethan shook his head. The legendary A-Special Spy was dating his stupid brother.

"Whatever, by the way—I took the box of condom from your bathroom." He said.

"Ahh." Ethan bounced his head. "No wonder, I felt someone sneaked into our room last night. Did you finished the other one I bought for you?"

"Yeah." Enzo grins. Sabrina chuckled and shook her head including Gabriel and Aria. Catriona focused on her food rather than their insignificant conversation.

"Should I buy you a factory of condom?" Gabriel asked.

"Sure." Everyone laughed except Catriona who was always serious and so out of the world.

"So, Cat, how's my brother in bed?" Ethan asked casually.

"Not bad," Catriona answered nonchalantly. Everyone laughed at what she said.

"Not bad?" Enzo was stunned and felt like his ego was smashed into pieces. "It was great. Every girl would say that I am a God of Sex… damn woman! How could you say that I'm not that bad? Do you still want me to prove to you that I am not lame?"

Catriona gave him a skeptical look while Enzo annoyingly scoffed and took his smoothie. Catriona is eating but she sensed those eyes watching them from the balcony. She could sense that she's talking to someone through the cellphone. She looks up at the woman.

Janine smiled fake at her and turn back, yet she noticed the phone that she's using. A disposable phone that couldn't be tracked. She momentarily sneered. If she could get her hand on that cellphone, she'll get valid evidence. She could tap on that cellphone but it will be easier with the help of an expert and she looked at Enzo who met her eyes.
