“I promise, I will keep your secret.”

"What secret?"

"Well...your relationship with him, I won't tell anyone."

Blake and Marissa knew each other since they were young, but one accident cost Blake his chances at being with Marissa. So against his better judgement, in order to be near her, he agreed to be her best friend.

Ten years later, using the pressure his family imposed upon him to get married. Blake concocted a plan to enlist Melissa's help. Her role was to play as his wife. 

Can Blake finally convince Marissa that whatever happened when they were young was just a misunderstanding?

Will You Keep My Secret?

"Is there something wrong?" Blake returned her embrace by warmly wrapping his hand around her.

"Nothing. I just found the need to tell you that I love you more often when I have a chance." Marissa buried her head on her chest and took her time to appreciate their moment together.

Blake's smile faded as he noticed the sadness in Marissa's eyes. He gently cupped her face and looked at her with concern. "Are you sure there is nothing wrong? You look pale," he asked, pulling away slightly to get a better look at her.

Marissa shook her head. "Nothing's wrong, maybe it's just because I'm not wearing any makeup," she replied, trying to make light of the situation.

Blake chuckled lightly. He rubbed his thumb on her cheek and asked, "Have you eaten?"

"Yes, I have," she smiled, although it was a light meal since she hadn't had much appetite lately. Despite her efforts to not think about her mother, the situation still weighed heavily on her mind.
