COUNTDOWN TO LOVE MY FATED MATE
E1
Ivan Marino
You are joking dad...right?
Ivan Marino
He is fifty-three years old!!!
Ivan just came back home from overseas where he went to study to get the news that he is getting married to one of his dad's business associates.
Mr. Marino (Ivan's father)
And you are twenty-one, what's the issue with that?
Ivan Marino
W-what? I'm your son! How could you just marry me off to some old hag like that just for your benefits!!
Mr. Marino (Ivan's father)
For my benefits? I'm doing this for the family Ivan! The family!
Mr. Marino (Ivan's father)
We need to grow our business and that means getting our family merged with another family which will make that happen!
Ivan Marino
No, no, I can't get marry to him! I will never get marry to him!
Ivan Marino
I rather die that marry than man and be his sixth partner!
Mr. Marino (Ivan's father)
You are pushing me young man, I've been lenient with you. The Marcus family wanted to marry you to their daughter, you said you are gay, and I left you alone.
Mr. Marino (Ivan's father)
Now we get another better deal and you are still refusing to marry him. What's your excuse this time? That you are no longer gay?
Ivan Marino
Dad...I just came back from college. You didn't even bothered to come for my graduation, and I came home, you haven't even allowed me to settle down and you are already telling me I'm getting married to your business partner.
Ivan Marino
Can't you just pretend to be nice to me for once?
E2
Mr. Marino (Ivan's father)
Stop overreacting about this Ivan. This is me being nice to you.
Mr. Marino (Ivan's father)
You should be grateful I allowed you to study out of the country like you wanted. It's now time for you to repay what I did to you.
Ivan Marino
I can repay you in other ways, I can join the company and—
Mr. Marino (Ivan's father)
Enough Ivan!!! My word is final and nothing else!
Mr. Marino (Ivan's father)
You are getting marry to Malec and nothing is changing!
Ivan Marino
Something is changing that dad! Something is definitely changing that because I'm not getting married to him!
Mrs. Marino (Ivan stepmom)
What's going on?
Ivan heard Martha's voice as he turned to see her walking towards him with Marcus behind her heels.
Marcus Marino (Ivan halfbrother)
Baby brother, I had no idea you are coming back today. I would have told the family driver to pick you up.
Ivan Marino
*ignores Marcus walking towards his stepmom*
Ivan Marino
Mom, dad is forcing me to get married. Please tell him I can't. I'm too young to be married right now. And definitely not to that old man.
Mr. Marino (Ivan's father)
*grunt going to sit down*
Mrs. Marino (Ivan stepmom)
I-I...Ivan...
Ivan Marino
*steps back a little*
Ivan Marino
You are aware about this too?
Marcus Marino (Ivan halfbrother)
Come on Ivv, why are you acting shock? You knew one day you will have to get married. Why are you being a brat right now?
Mrs. Marino (Ivan stepmom)
Marcus, shut it!
Mrs. Marino (Ivan stepmom)
*turns to Ivan*
Mrs. Marino (Ivan stepmom)
Ivan...you know how your dad can—
Ivan Marino
If you are all going to force me to marry him, then I will leave.
Ivan Marino
I'm never getting married to someone I don't know anything about.
Ivan Marino
I can't believe all of you are in this against me.
Mrs. Marino (Ivan stepmom)
Ivan.
Ivan Marino
*picks up his bags as he turned walking towards the door*
Mr. Marino (Ivan's father)
If you dare to get out of that door young man, I am disowning you!
Mr. Marino (Ivan's father)
I am cutting you off!!!
E3
Mr. Marino (Ivan's father)
You heard me right Ivan? The moment you step out of that door, you are no longer welcome here!
Mrs. Marino (Ivan stepmom)
Logan! You can't do that.
Mr. Marino (Ivan's father)
I definitely will. So make your choice right now.
Mrs. Marino (Ivan stepmom)
He is your son!!!
Mr. Marino (Ivan's father)
I have a son already, you think I will care about losing one I got from that harlot bïtch!
Ivan Marino
Don't call my mom that!!! After everything she did for you and this family! You don't deserve her at all!!!
Mrs. Marino (Ivan stepmom)
Ivan-
Ivan Marino
Don't mom– I really don't want to hear anything from you. Don't make me hate you.
Mrs. Marino (Ivan stepmom)
...
Marcus Marino (Ivan halfbrother)
You are growing wings. Now you are going against the only person who still respected your nonsense in this family.
Mrs. Marino (Ivan stepmom)
Shut up Marcus!!
Mr. Marino (Ivan's father)
Get out!
Ivan Marino
In the end you are choosing your business over me just like you did with mom.
Mr. Marino (Ivan's father)
Don't mention that crazy hag in front of me!!!
Ivan Marino
That woman is my mom and not a crazy hag!!! She is the reason why your business is still standing today and what did you do, you discarded her when she was of no use!!!
Mr. Marino (Ivan's father)
*angry as he stands up storming towards Ivan raising his hand to hit him* You dare not talk to me like that you son of a bitc—
Mrs. Marino (Ivan stepmom)
*quick to stand in front of him* Stop Logan, you can't hurt hi—argh.
Logan pushed Martha out of his way as he picked up a vase sitting on the wall frame beside him as he throws it towards where Ivan is in anger.
Ivan was quick to dodge it but still couldn't help but got hit from the glass pieces that smashed around.
Mrs. Marino (Ivan stepmom)
IVAN!!
Mrs. Marino (Ivan stepmom)
*stands up as she rushed towards him* Ivan, oh my god, you are bleeding. Let me—
Ivan Marino
*push Martha's hand away from his face as he turned to his dad*
Mrs. Marino (Ivan stepmom)
Ivan.
Mr. Marino (Ivan's father)
You will surely regret this!
Mr. Marino (Ivan's father)
There is no way you will be able to survive alone on your own out there.
Mr. Marino (Ivan's father)
I am cutting off all your source for funds. Even if you crawl back here I will never accept you back as my son!!!
Ivan Marino
One of your son? I think you made a mistake because the last time I checked...*looks at his time*...five minutes ago, you only have one son.
Ivan Marino
That's unless you have a bastard outside.
