I Do; But He Don't
INTRODUCTION
AUTHOR
Greetings everyone! Before I proceed to the character's introduction allow me to put some disclaimer ;)
AUTHOR
First and foremost, I do not own the following face claims that I will be using in this story. The characters visual is from an existing manhua entitled "The Deathless"/ "Stay Awake All Night" by Anjeo. So the credit goes to the rightful owner.
AUTHOR
However, this is not a fan fiction of the said manhua. I will just use it for face claims of the story's characters for the sole purpose of visualization in order to bring my readers some good reading experience.
AUTHOR
Anyway, I recommend that manhua because it was a masterpiece! So if you are interested, you might as well try to read it. Thank you!

CHAPTER 1 - Arranged Marriage
Aizhen
Maybe you already knew it by now, so let me get straight to it. Haze, I know you're also being forced to do this.
Aizhen decided to meet up with Haze as soon as he heard about the marriage arranged by their grandparents.
Haze
What are you talking about... Zhen?
Aizhen
Don't you know? About the arranged marriage of our grandparents?
Aizhen
Yeah. We are being forced to get married. Damn it!
Haze was stunned when she realized what Aizhen just said.
Her heart is beating faster with just the thought of her marrying the man she's in love with for a long time.
Haze
W-we are going to... t-to get married?
Aizhen
That's what they want. But not us.
Aizhen took both her hands and looks straight to her eyes.
Aizhen
Haze, look. We don't feel anything with each other. They don't even think about what we would feel about it. They are just selfish.
Haze
Whispers: I actually love you...
Aizhen
Did you say something? Sorry I can't hear you well.
Haze
A-ah no. Nothing. I...I didn't.
Haze then looks down. She doesn't know what to do in the current situation. On top of that, her heart is racing as Aizhen is still holding her hands.
Aizhen
I have talked about it with my Father but we just ended up arguing. He's not listening to me.
Aizhen
So, I come here. To personally talk to you. Haze...
He kneeled down in front of her and beg.
Haze
You— why are you kneeling dow—
Aizhen
I begged you. Please help me to break off this arrangement and talk to your Father.
She bit her lip and heave a sigh. Haze can't react with Aizhen's plead. This is the first time she saw him this desperate.
Haze
Zhen, you... y-you know my Father and your Dad. What if they won't agree?
Aizhen cupped Haze's cheeks and made her look at him.
Aizhen
I believed in you. Haze. Just try it please.
Haze saw the desperation in his eyes. The man of her dreams is now asking her stop the fairytale she dreamt of.
It's painful, she thought to her self. How is it possible that what makes her happy is actually what makes Aizhen this way.
Before her tears finally fall. She smiled bitterly to him and nods slowly.
Haze
Yes... I-I'll try Zhen. Don't, don't worry.
Aizhen
Thank you, Haze. I Know I can count on you. I will talk to your brother also and ask for his help.
After saying that, he smiled at her. Aizhen caresses her cheeks.
Aizhen
Seeing you this close. What a gorgeous lady.
Aizhen
You're truly a princess...
Aizhen
...but I'm sorry. I am not your Prince.
With his words. Haze felt something stabbing her heart. She tried her best not to burst out in front of him.
Aizhen then ruffles her hair and moved away.
Aizhen
I need to go now. I will wait for your update regarding the matter.
Haze couldn't keep her cool anymore and lost herself. A hot liquid runs from her eyes down to her cheeks.
Haze
Of all the people my heart could have chosen...
Haze
...it decided on a guy who didn't have enough room in his own heart...
Haze
...to love someone like me.
