Love and Debt

Their first destination was Madrid, Spain.

Madrid, the capital of Spain, is the heart of the country. It is one of the most beautiful cities in Spain. You will find a range of cultural and historical treasures within its boundaries, such as the Royal Palace and the Royal Theater. It was a lively city with great food, breathtaking arts, historic neighborhoods, and significant shopping areas.

The couple checked in at Hotel Ritz located in Madrid. As soon as they entered the lobby, Nina was so amazed by the soaring ceilings and stately decorations; it was like she had just entered a palace. With its shimmering chandeliers and carved mahogany accents plus the handwoven carpets, Nina felt like she was welcomed as a princess by the staff of the hotel.

She was in awe when they entered their bedroom. It has a regal feeling inside with its magnificent, intricately embellished interior designs. From its handmade carpets and antique furniture, the room was spacious and comfortable.

Nina bit her lips and blushed when she saw the king-size bed covered with sheets made from luxurious satin and fine cotton spun together. She couldn't hide her excitement and happiness when she saw the place.

"Do you like it?" Andrew asked after the hotel staff brought all their luggage.

Nina looked at Andrew with a huge smile on her face. She ran towards him and jumped into him, giggling.

"I love the place! This is amazing!" She said excitedly.

He chuckled while wrapping his arms around her waist.

"You are amazing." He whispered.

She blushed thinking about what they did on the plane earlier—more on what she did.

"Are you satisfied with my performance, teacher?" She teased.

He laughed and gave her a quick kiss.

"I am, but it wasn't enough. We just did it once. You know I can't get enough of you." He answered with a hoarse voice.

She felt the heat on her cheeks, and her body was starting to warm up. He was about to kiss her again when they heard the sound of a phone ringing.

"Oh it's my phone." She exclaimed while rushing towards her bag to pick up her phone.

He was looking at her, listening to what the call was about.

"Rev! What is it?" She asked, looking at Andrew with an apologetic look.

Andrew frowned. Why the hell is he calling her? Didn't he tell Rev to stay away with Nina? He thought to himself.

"O-Oh yes, we arrived safely. Thank you for asking. And don't worry, I didn't forget our lesson. I'll borrow a laptop from Andrew so we can start." She answered.

Did she just say they have lessons today? He thought he made it clear that he would be the to teach her and not Rev.

He was frowning when Nina ended the call. She walked towards him again and stood in front of him.

"What was that about? Do you have lessons with him?" He asked, annoyed.

She nodded. "He offered to teach me online and I agreed."

"Why didn't you tell me? Didn't I tell you I will be your teacher during this trip?" His voice was louder than usual.

"I-I'm sorry. I just thought you would be busy with work. I just don't want to be a bother." She answered.

"Nina, he likes you. Are you that stupid to not notice it?" He yelled.

She was surprised by his sudden outburst. She knew that Rev liked her, but she was hoping he didn't. She looked at Rev as an older brother, nothing more.

"I know that. I'm not stupid, but I don't like him."

Andrew took a deep breath and turned his back, putting his palm to his face. He looked at Nina again.

"So are you saying you will talk to him whenever I am outside? Was that it? I can't believe you. Call him. I'll talk to him." He ordered.

"No! That's not necessary." She declined.

"What?" He almost yelled.

Nina was starting to get scared of Andrew. She didn't really expect that he was that jealous of Rev. She was just actually teasing him. She bit her lips and started laughing.

Andrew was pissed when he saw her laughing. Is she making fun of him? Then her phone rang again. He was so mad that he snatched the phone and answered the call.

"What the hell is your problem? I told you to stay away from my wife!" He suddenly yelled.

Nina was surprised when he called her wife. She felt a different kind of happiness when he said that word.

"Go to hell! I swear I'll kill you when I come back!" Andrew yelled again when he realized who was on the other line.

He ended the call and threw the phone on the bed. He was fuming with anger because it turned out it was just a prank from their friends. They wanted to make sure that they arrived safely. It was Jayden who called them.

"You're enjoying this, aren't you?" He asked, staring at Nina with a frown face.

"It wasn't my idea. Peggy was on the other line earlier telling me to call her Rev. I just went with the flow. I wanted to see you jealous. It makes me feel very special." She answered softly, then bowed her head.

He sighed then tilted her chin up.

"You are special. You don't need to make me jealous to see that. I love you. What do you want me to do to believe that you are the only woman for me?"

She shook her head and smiled. "I love you too. I believe you. You don't need to prove anything to me. I am happy to be your wife, my husband." She whispered.

"I like the sound of that. Nina, let's get married here." He suddenly asked.

Nina's eyes widened. Did she hear him right? Was he asking her to marry him here? She didn't answer for a moment. Her heart beat faster and louder.

"A-Andrew, d-did you just ask me to marry you here? Do you mean during this trip? Are you sure about that?" She asked, making sure she heard him correctly.

"Yes! I have never been sure in my life. Just now. Let's get married here. I don't want to wait any longer. I want you to be my wife.." He said in a serious tone.
