CHAPTER 7
AFTER they returned home, Tamara only wanted to do one thing: sleep. She felt very tired, maybe because she had danced earlier, so she went straight to her room.
Tamara is already lying down, but sleepiness doesn’t want to flirt with her. What is pressing in her mind is what happened to them. That’s why she smiled. ” That man is terrible. He wants a baby. How can this happen? They didn’t know each other. He had a crazy mind. but handsome. Maybe if we have kids, they will be beautiful and handsome ,” she said, making her laugh.
Emily heard Tamara’s laugh, and she smiled. Maybe she’s in love with that handsome man. Who isn’t? He’s so lovable to look at, and I know he had a nice hybrid. ”
Tamara couldn’t stop laughing. “Hmmm, can we meet again?” When she said that, her face suddenly became sad. She believes that she will not cross paths with the man again. It was just an accident that she danced with him earlier. He thought maybe he was the one she was with. She shook her head.
Outside, Emily frowned because Tamara suddenly went silent inside the room. “What happened to her? “I spoke with her.”She went to the door and knocked. “Tamara!” she said.
Tamara jumped up. “Aunt, why?”
“Can I come in?”
“Alright Auntie, the door is open.”
“Huh? What does Aunty need from me? We’re together all day already? ” She was nervous.
When Emily entered, she sat directly next to her niece.
“Aunt, why? Do you need something or will you let me do anything? ”
“Hmmm, nothing.”
“Huh? Nothing? Why are you here, Aunt? ”
“Because I heard you laugh, what’s wrong?”
“Nothing, Aunt!”
“Look at me straight, Tamara. You don’t know how to lie. I know you.”
Tamara looked at her aunt. What she said was true, but sometimes she also has to lie. As they say, there is no perfect person in this world.
“Auntie, what should I say?” She said.
“Just like this, Tamara, answer each of my questions. It’s simple, right?”
My gosh, Aunty is like an attorney again. And I am the culprit. Tamara sighed secretly. “Okay, Aunt, what is it?”
“You’re in love, aren’t you?”
Tamara did not expect that this is what her aunty would say. “In love? Aunty, to whom?” Where did the aunt get this question? She fell in love immediately.
“Who else, Tamara, the man you danced with so you could have children?”
Tamara’s eyes widened when her aunt told her to have a child. What? This is her aunt. She doesn’t even know that man.
“Oh, those eyes of yours have grown to the size of an owl, Tamara. Answer my question. ”
“Auntie, are you kidding me? In love, how did this happen? Eh, I don’t know him. We only met for the first time, and your imagination is so far away.
“There is such a thing; that’s what they call love at first sight; you fall in love with each other immediately.” She was smiling. And she said this because she had felt it once with her niece’s father.
Tamara can’t deny it to herself. Yes, her Aunt is right, but crush first. Love will come next.
“What? Do you answer me, Tamara? ”
“Aunt, I don’t know anything about being in love. “What are you talking about?” she pretended.
You know, I can hit you. My gosh! Don’t dramatize me, Tamara. I know the act of being in love, just like your act now. ”
“Why does she care if I’m in love? Well, I’m not worth anything to her. All I get is grumpy screams from her. She said, “What did I do, aunty, that you said that?”
“My gosh, Tamara. You know what I said? Don’t pretend. ”
“Auntie, then I’ll admit that I’m in love with that man when we meet again.” Maybe that’s the last one. Isn’t there nothing more to come? And you can see from his appearance that he’s rich. There’s no time for them like us, Auntie, for then time is gold. ”
What her niece said made her think. “Hmmm, you’re right. But if you meet again, it will mean something, Tamara. ”
“Auntie, whatever comes to your mind, it’s better you rest.”
“I can’t sleep either. I’ll just cook dinner for us. I will leave you now. Go ahead and rest. Maybe that man will visit you in your dreams. You two will see each other again. ” It headed to the door.
I just wish Aunty smiled.
After Clark sent Carmina home, he went straight to his house. He doesn’t feel like going to the bar today to meet his friends or women.
His maid was surprised when he came home early because he always comes home in the morning. Sometimes he doesn’t even come home; he just goes to the hotel to sleep, and then goes home to change into office clothes and then leaves right away.
“Good evening, Clark,” greeted Nana Mabel.
For Clark, Nana Mabel is like family to him because she has taken care of him since he was a baby.
He lives alone now in their house. His parents were in America and his siblings are married there too. Well, he’s the only one left.
“The same goes for you, Nana,” was his response to her.
“Clark, how are you today?” Are you sick? Do you feel bad? ”
Clark frowned at what Nana Mabel said. “Nana, I’m not sick. Why did you say that?”
“Well, you just came home at this time. It seems like a miracle.” Nana Mabel knows him very well, which is why she said that.
Clark smiled at what he heard. “I’m not going anywhere now, Nana, so I’ll just go home to rest.”
Nana Mabel frowned, as if she didn’t believe what Clark taught her. Because for her, it’s unbelievable.
Clark noticed this. “Nana, I know you won’t believe me, but it’s true.” Oh by the way, Nana, I’m going to eat here. Please cook for me. That’s my favorite food. ”
Nana Mabel’s face showed joy at what Clark said. “Oh, Clark. I’ve waited a long time for this opportunity to cook for you again. Go ahead and rest. I’ll wake you up when your delicious meals are ready. ”
“Thank you Nana, I’m going upstairs now,” he said to the lady with a smile.
Nana Mabel nimbly headed to the kitchen to prepare food for him. For her, it’s really a miracle that Clark came home early and he wanted to eat too. She remembered he hadn’t stayed long at their house for years. He goes home and leaves immediately. It’s good that he went home early today so that he could rest. She knew that he was too busy with his work even though he was the boss.
When Clark went up to the room, he took a shower first. When he finished, he faced the mirror in the sink and stared at himself. A smile appeared on his lips. He remembered the woman he danced with in Obando. He closed his eyes, remembering their dancing earlier. He said, “Hmmm, she’s lovely,” he suddenly became aware. “I need to meet you, Tamara. I don’t know why I feel this way when I think of you. I felt great, my heart kept on bumping that I had never felt for a woman. Maybe it is you that Uncle says that I will look for. Well, if it is you, I need to move fast. Yeah, move fast, Clark. He raised his arm in a sign of determination to do so. He left the bathroom just as his cell phone rang. He looked to see who was calling and he saw a woman. He ignored it and went to the cabinet to get some clothes.
The Clark mobile is still ringing constantly. You will get tired of being called whoever you are. Today no calls were received from a woman. “He doesn’t believe this happened to him now.” When someone called him with a different number, he answered immediately because he knew the one who called him would invite him to eat lunch or dinner. The next thing they did when they finished eating was that they got on the bed. That’s his life, but of course these women are not ordinary women; they are from showbiz, or models, or from an elite family.
Clark just let the cellphone ring, even though it was loud, and when he closed his eyes, he fell asleep immediately.
“I HATE YOU, Clark. Ahhh! ” Carmina shuddered in annoyance; the line was busy earlier now that she was reaching him and he didn’t want to answer her call. “Ahhh! You are mine, Clark. “You are mine!” “No one can take you away from me, not even that Obando girl!” she shouted.
