1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,520
I am pissed. If I hadn't been angry enough last night, I am more angry now. I'm angry with

2
00:00:05,520 --> 00:00:11,360
myself because I went to bed furious with my husband. I know I shouldn't care, but he's so...

3
00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:18,160
And now I'm even more pissed because I dreamt the bastard. I dreamt we were having sex.

4
00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:24,960
I dreamt that this fool had been all over me and I liked it. No. I loved it.

5
00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:33,120
Ugh. Why would I even want to sleep with a cheater? Damn it. So when I woke up, I wanted

6
00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:39,440
nothing to do with him. We got dressed, went down for breakfast, ate our meals in silence,

7
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:46,320
and headed back upstairs. It was like clockwork. Sergio left me in the bedroom and went to the gym.

8
00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:52,640
Now I'm sitting here on my bed planning my entire day without him. If he can have another woman at

9
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:58,000
his side while married to me, then I can do whatever the fuck I want. I get dressed in biker

10
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:03,760
shorts and a crop top and head downstairs for the next yoga session. It's almost 10.30 and I'm

11
00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:09,200
a little late. I arrive downstairs and enter the bar area so I can head through the side door

12
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:15,200
and stop short when I see Sergio sitting at the bar nursing a drink. Isn't he supposed to be at the

13
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:24,080
gym? Liar. I take a deep breath and exhale. This shouldn't infuriate me. I should have no care

14
00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:30,240
whatsoever. As I'm about to walk past him, I pause when the same woman from the beach who had bent

15
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:36,880
over to take up the phone joins him at the table. My eyes narrow at them and I can't even believe it.

16
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:44,000
My husband is actually entertaining her. She's not even wearing clothes. She's wearing a bikini

17
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:51,840
bra and a mesh skirt that reveals her fucking thong. Did they plan this? I bet. When she leans

18
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:57,600
in and touches Sergio on his leg, I patiently wait for him to brush her off, but he doesn't.

19
00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:05,120
Maybe he is a prick after all. I walk past both of them, not stopping one bit to acknowledge

20
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:12,560
anything. And I know he can see me. I know he saw me. As he should. So when I meet the end of the

21
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:18,160
room and walk outside, I stand there for a few minutes thinking he will come after me and apologize

22
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:24,720
or something, but he doesn't. Like, what the fuck does he even care? Anger boils inside of me.

23
00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:30,560
I'm even more annoyed than I was when I woke up. Why am I even putting all this energy into that

24
00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:37,200
jerk? This is our honeymoon and he hasn't made an effort. So what am I thinking? I hate that I

25
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:42,320
think he cares or is willing to make this work between us. I hate that I fell for his gentleman

26
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:48,640
ly charms. I hate that I can be this goddamn gullible. I spend the rest of my morning doing yoga,

27
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:54,560
and it has helped because I'm feeling much more calm. Seeing that I have more than enough time

28
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:59,840
for everything, I head over to the tennis court and play doubles with some strangers. By the time

29
00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:04,720
I'm all sweaty and tired, it's after one. I should have been back a long time ago to have

30
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:11,120
lunch with Sergio, but I'm not going anywhere with that bastard. He can suck ass. I'm sure he got the

31
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:16,160
point when I didn't return to the bedroom. I grab a quick bite at one of the many restaurants and

32
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:22,160
head to the front desk to book a tour. I know Sergio is probably still waiting for me in the room,

33
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:28,160
so I'm not going there until the end of the day. I refuse to let him dictate anything I want to do

34
00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:33,120
for the rest of this honeymoon, which is why I packed an entire duffel bag with a change of

35
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:38,560
clothes. There are so many washrooms and change rooms around that I can slip in and slip out at

36
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:44,160
my whim. By the time I'm finished with my city tour around the island, it's almost six o'clock.

37
00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:51,600
We get back in time for dinner, which I must say I'm famished for. Today was eventful, but draining.

38
00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:58,320
We did a lot of walking and other activities like zip lining and ATV riding. It was a task to get

39
00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:04,480
there because most of the areas had to be hiked. I enjoyed myself and I'm glad I did it, especially

40
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:10,880
without Sergio. I take the elevator up to my room and slowly make my way to the door. I take a deep

41
00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:18,160
breath before swiping my card to enter. Immediately I feel his presence. Sergio has this kind of dark

42
00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:24,240
aura and it can wear heavy on anyone who doesn't know him, including me. I have no idea what I'm

43
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:29,520
walking into right now because I don't know this man, and even over the past few days he has been

44
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:35,120
nice to me. I've never seen him on his bad side. I set my bag on the floor and close the door.

45
00:04:35,840 --> 00:04:40,240
Sergio is sitting on the couch that he has strategically placed facing the door.

46
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:45,360
His laptop is on his lap and he's typing. What's worse is that he hasn't looked up at me.

47
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:51,120
Not even for a second, I make it across the room and suddenly it feels like the walk of shame.

48
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:55,200
I don't know why I'm feeling guilty for doing something I wanted to do.

49
00:04:55,200 --> 00:05:02,000
Why do I feel like I'm the bad person right now? I don't say anything. I just grab fresh clothing

50
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:07,440
and head into the bathroom. The shower is raining down on my head but I find myself staring blankly

51
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:13,600
at the tiles. Today was for me but it feels like I had made it all about him. That I only did the

52
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:20,160
tour to piss him off. That I skipped lunch so I can make him pay. I jump hearing the door open.

53
00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:25,600
Maybe this is it. Maybe this is where I die or where he hurts me because I disobeyed him or

54
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:32,880
didn't follow his rules. I still... I stay quiet, letting the heavy shower rain on me.

55
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:40,080
Did you eat? He asks. I pretend to not hear him and he asks the question again.

56
00:05:41,840 --> 00:05:47,760
No. I say. Do you want me to make reservations at the restaurant or do you want us to have our dinner

57
00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:53,680
here? I'm still not in the mood to sit at a restaurant but maybe that might be the smarter

58
00:05:53,680 --> 00:06:01,440
option but I'm also tired. Room service. I say. Anything in particular you would like to eat?

59
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:08,320
I lather my sponge with soap and rub it across my chest. No. No, you choose.

60
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:15,440
There's silence for a little while and then the door closes. I let out a breath I didn't even know

61
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:22,560
I was holding. Why does this man intimidate me? Why does he scare me so much? Why am I afraid of him?

62
00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:29,280
When I finally head back out into the room dressed in my silk pajamas, Sergio is sitting at the table.

63
00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:35,280
The food has arrived and he hasn't touched it. You didn't have to wait on me.

64
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:43,120
I don't do things I don't want to do. He stands and pulls my chair. No. Sit.

65
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:49,680
He shares the food and within minutes we are eating. The silence is deafening again.

66
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:56,240
The air is thick around us and gets thicker because there are so many things unsaid. Sergio

67
00:06:56,240 --> 00:07:02,800
lifts his head and sips his wine. How was your day? Good. I respond swallowing my meat.

68
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:09,440
I enjoyed it. That's nice to hear. I give him a fake smile and continue to eat.

69
00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:16,080
His words and expression don't match. His face is straight and stiff, like he's annoyed,

70
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:23,920
as if my presence irritates him. Am I supposed to ask him about his day? If I don't, will that make me

71
00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:34,320
a bad person? And yours? I croak out. Lonely. I stop chewing and peer up at him. Sergio's eyes are

72
00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:39,920
beautiful, especially under the dim lighting. Really, this is the first time I'm truly seeing

73
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:47,520
the color of his eyes. It's a smoky gray. Or maybe it's a light blue. Sergio stares back at me,

74
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:55,840
unblinking. I clear my throat. Oh, okay. I don't say anything more than that because I know I'll

75
00:07:55,840 --> 00:08:03,200
only be walking into a trap. So tell me, what did you do today? I put some vegetables in my mouth,

76
00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:09,440
patiently chew it, and then swallow. I need to gather my thoughts. I don't want to say anything

77
00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:18,240
that may trigger him. I shrug. Nothing much. Did some yoga and I went on a tour? A city tour?

78
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:25,440
I nod, wondering how he figured that out. But I guess he probably looked at the magazine too.

79
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:31,840
Did Richard give you any trouble? I freeze with my fork full of rice dangling mid-air.

80
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:38,480
How the fuck did he know about Richard? And as if reading my expression, Sergio smiles.

81
00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:43,040
You didn't really think I would let you go out in a big-ass city by yourself, right?

82
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:48,800
Fuck. Damn it. No wonder the dude had been nice and extra helpful. I should have known

83
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:55,280
something was up. I scowl at him. Why would you do that? I can handle shit on my own. I don't need

84
00:08:55,280 --> 00:09:02,000
your help or your stupid bodyguards to take care of me. Sergio tilts his head. Oh, Richard wasn't

85
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:07,200
a bodyguard. He works at this hotel, and I paid him to make sure you're comfortable. I paid him

86
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:14,080
to report back to me everything you did. How romantic. I snide. Why can't I just have one day

87
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:20,000
without being stifled by you? I am so tired of this shit. Sergio sets his fork down.

88
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:26,240
Tired of what, really? Tired of spending time with your husband? We had a plan, Bianca. We agreed

89
00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:30,560
on eating together and spending the evening in each other's company. You agreed to all of it,

90
00:09:30,560 --> 00:09:35,680
so what the fuck are you tired of? This, you, everything. I feel like I'm trapped in a box,

91
00:09:35,680 --> 00:09:40,560
and I can't do anything about it. I set my foot down and stand, pushing the chair away.

92
00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:46,640
I don't want to be married to you. I don't want any of this sham of our marriage. We are not lovers

93
00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:52,160
or soulmates. So what the hell are we spending time for? Calm down. Have a seat, Bianca.

94
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:56,880
And why should I even be listening to your lying, cheating ass? How am I supposed to

95
00:09:56,880 --> 00:10:02,240
respect you and your wishes when you don't give a flying fuck about me? Excuse me? I saw you at

96
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:09,200
the bar this morning. I saw you and that bitch from the beach by the bar. I huff. And I know you saw

97
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:14,160
me. I passed right in front of you guys, and you didn't even budge to come after me. It's like

98
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:19,760
you didn't care if I saw you with another woman. I am standing and bearing myself to this man,

99
00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:25,280
and Sergio is just sitting there looking at me all composed and poised as if nothing is going on between

100
00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:31,600
us. Had you stayed long enough? He begins. You would have seen that I had told her to leave,

101
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:37,280
but you were so short-sighted and unhinged that you couldn't be an adult enough to assess the

102
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:44,080
situation. You stormed off like a child and expected me to chase after you. I am not your

103
00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:50,080
father, Bianca. My eyes narrow at him. Well, at least you're right about that.

104
00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:56,240
My father has been faithful to my mother throughout their marriage. That I cannot say about you.

105
00:10:57,680 --> 00:11:04,800
Sergio stands and walks to the foot of the bed. You know nothing about me, love. I move to the door,

106
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:10,720
prepared to leave the room. I'll be damned if I have to sleep with this deceitful, controlling

107
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:16,240
bastard for one more night. I know that every night since we have been here you have been texting

108
00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:21,200
your whore without fail. And you don't even have the decency to do it in the bathroom or

109
00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:29,120
something as a form of respect. But I guess all pigs behave like swine. Sergio's jaw tenses. Finally,

110
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:36,000
I've struck a nerve. You think you know everything, but you're just a jealous, insecure little girl.

111
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:43,200
That's it. I am so done with him. I'm so finished with this. I pull on the door handle to open it,

112
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:48,400
but Sergio reaches across the room and pushes it with a force. He leans against it, blocking me

113
00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:55,760
from exiting. Let me go. That whore you're referring to is my sister, Bianca. I laugh.

114
00:11:56,800 --> 00:12:03,200
Good one. Now move, Sergio. He doesn't have a sister. If he did, she surely would have been

115
00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:10,480
at the wedding. Mom would have introduced us. So he couldn't fool me. Sergio grabs me by the wrist

116
00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:15,680
and pulls me across the room. He takes up his phone, unlocks it, and pulls up a photo of the

117
00:12:15,680 --> 00:12:23,520
same woman he'd been texting every night. He opens the messages. Read. I try to fight him off,

118
00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:32,800
but he's too strong. I give in, reading the texts. He's right. Dr. Saria Bonaparte is a doctor without

119
00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:38,800
borders, and currently she's serving in a country that's at war. Most of the texts are just about

120
00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:46,480
them wishing each other well and safe. I feel stupid, dumb. But how was I to know? How am I

121
00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:53,280
supposed to know that he has a sister? I just met the guy. We have never spoken of ourselves or even

122
00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:59,680
our family. I assumed everyone at the wedding was family. Sergio tosses the phone on the table.

123
00:12:59,680 --> 00:13:08,720
Got all the answers now? I'm sorry. You let your emotions rule you. You don't even think about

124
00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:16,320
asking questions. You act on what you think you know. I'm sorry for calling her a whore. Sergio

125
00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:23,360
waves his hand in dismissal as if my apology isn't sincere enough. But it was. He returns to the

126
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:30,320
table and begins eating again. If you want to go, you can go. You are taxing. I stand rigid in the

127
00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:36,720
middle of the room. I can't even begin to express how silly I feel. If you're not going to leave,

128
00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:43,120
then finish eating your food, Bianca. I drag my feet to the table and sit. He swallows his last

129
00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:49,360
bite and then says, If you have questions, then ask them. I will answer all of them the best I can.

130
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:54,320
Don't go about creating problems when you can just ask a fucking question. I stabbed the

131
00:13:54,320 --> 00:14:01,040
stake with my fork. Why did you agree to this marriage? Sergio is much older than me. I am pretty

132
00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:08,400
sure he can have his fair share of wealthy women. So why me? Why my family? Because when I saw the

133
00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:12,400
picture of you and saw you in person, I knew you were right for me.

134
00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:22,880
Hey Raiders, you have met the end of part three of this four part episode.

135
00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:28,320
Stay tuned for the final installment of Arranged Marriage. And if you haven't already,
