CHAPTER 5
WHILE she is standing on the side, Carmina feels very angry with Clark because she is not his dance partner but another woman.”Damn you, Clark! Why did you do this to me? I’m with you. Why are you dancing with someone else? Ahhh!” She wanted to scream out loud, but she stopped herself. She thought no one could hear her because everyone was busy dancing. The old woman did not agree that she would go inside because she was alone. Everyone inside was a couple.
If Clark’s partner was in front of Carmina, she might have choked and slapped him because of her anger or jealousy. Carmina was even more angry when Clark touched the waist of the woman he was dancing with. And she admits and thinks the two have known each other for a long time. She saw that they were so close to each other because of their body movements.
At that moment, Tamara was enjoying what was happening. She was still smiling. She just thought that she would be away from her aunt for a while and not see her grumpy attitude for a second. And besides, she has nothing to lose because she doesn’t even know this handsome man.
Clark was very happy. He liked what happened to him. He was now super enjoying it. And he never expected this kind of enjoyment from dancing with strangers. No words were exchanged between them, they just danced until the song ended.
The crowd applauded as they finished dancing. Clark gasped. “This is great. Woah! ” You can see the happiness on Clark’s face; he looks at the woman who was dancing with him just now.
Tamara left the man without saying anything. What else are they going to do after the dance is over? It is unlikely that it will be accompanied.
“Hey! Wait! ” Clark would have stopped the woman from leaving. He doesn’t know her name yet, but of course they need to talk.
But Tamara just goes straight ahead. She doesn’t want to look back because something might happen to her. She fell in love with him just like that. That’s because it’s like magic, that you saw your prince.
“Lady, I said wait for me!” Clark said, “In strength.” The woman just continued. “Oh men, just now her smile was so sweet, now she’s like a hot chili pepper.”
Because of Carmina’s annoyance, she wants to meet Tamara to give the couple a slap. But she also thought she was a professional model and the daughter of a rich man in the country. So, she restrains herself not to do what he wants to do to her.
Tamara passed Carmina whose eyes on her seemed like a chainsaw that at any moment would split her body because of jealousy.
Emily greeted Tamara with a smile. “What, did you enjoy it, Tamara?” she asked her niece immediately.
Tamara wondered why her aunt was smiling at her like that. Well, she just danced.” If she had known that this was the medicine for her grumpy, she would have done it already. ” Aunt, what are you talking about?”
“Hey! Tamara, don’t lie, I can see it on your face. ”
She asked herself why she wasn’t angry because he left her post. “Aunt, I don’t know him,” she responded differently.
“So, if you don’t know him, Tamara.”
She avoided her. “That’s right, auntie. I don’t know him. I’ll fix the clothes first.”
“Tamara, you know what you did right? There’s a meaning. ”
“Auntie, if you mean we’re going to have children, it won’t happen. Because we’re not married and, above all, we don’t know each other, right? ”
“Tamara, you don’t know how fate plays out.”
“Auntie, you told me before that fate is a person, he or she who’s the one making the fate for his or her life.”
Her aunt suddenly ceased what she was saying.
Tamara didn’t say anything more. She turned her back and went to the clothes that were scattered to arrange them so that she could avoid her aunt. So that the conversation would go somewhere.
Clark saw Carmina’s frowning face when he approached her. He didn’t talk because he already knew why her well-groomed eyebrows were twitching.
Clark just walked straight to Tamara’s place to change clothes.
“So, just like that, huh, Clark!” Carmina began.
“What?”
“Clark, don’t answer me what! You know what I mean! ” Her voice got a little louder, so the people who were near them started to look at them.
Clark stopped walking because he didn’t want to be yelled at and he was in a public place. “Shut up, Carmina. Don’t do that to me, because I don’t like it. And one more thing, you don’t have the right to raise your voice at me. Do you understand? ” He said firmly, but Clark’s face could see the anger as he continued walking again.
Carmina’s mouth closed immediately. She knows Clark, but it’s different if he gets angry.
Damn, okay, I don’t know, but we’ll figure it out later. Don’t tell me that the woman you dance with will have a baby! I don’t allow that, Clark, never! She followed him.
When Tamara saw that the man who had pulled her to dance was heading to their place, she didn’t know why she suddenly got confused and didn’t know what to pick first to fix.
Emily shook her head when she saw her niece’s reaction. It was really clear that her niece had fallen for that man she didn’t know. She can only say that it is love. And once she felt it, she couldn’t blame the niece.
“My God, her heart has been hit. That’s right, before I was strict with her because I didn’t want her to be like her mother, she fell in love so young, but what did that animal man just leave?” She looked at her niece. She wanted to laugh at what she saw because it was already folded. She took it again to unfold it again.
When the man was in front of Tamara, she felt like she was floating in the air.
“How much is the barong I’m wearing?” Clark immediately asked.
Tamara didn’t seem to hear anything; she just looked at the man.
Clark frowned. “Hey! I said, how much?”
Because of what Emily see, she came to rescue her niece.
“Sir, if you rent two hundred fifty dollars and buy three hundred fifty dollars.”Emily said.
Clark, just pay the rent; don’t tell me you purchased it. That’s what they say second hand. ”
Second hand your face. It’s imported. It’s from Brazil. Emily wanted to tell the woman.
Clark didn’t pay attention to Carmina; he grabbed some money. “Just wrap it up, ma’am.” he just took it out in front of then. He just put the barong tagalog on his clothes that way.
Because he was generous, Emily smiled very sweetly, not just a smile but teasing the woman as if she was saying it. Oh, what a shame you are. She looked at her niece. She was still the same. Nothing had changed. This child really fell for that man. She simply elbowed her.
“Aunty?” Tamara goes back to her senses.
“Blink your eyes, it’s too obvious,” she whispered to her.
“Huh?”
“Just wrap this so that your blood will awake.”
Carmina raised her eyebrows. Well, she could sense that the woman Clark danced with was in love at first sight with Clark. This is how she was when she first saw Clark. She fell for his charm.
Damn you! Did you think Clark would notice you? No, it’s not a salesperson like you that he’ll not like. You’re nothing compared to my feet. “Clark, are you done?”
Tamara rightly handed the plastic bag to the man.
Clark took it. “Thank you, but wait, I don’t know your name yet, Miss. We are already dancing, but we are strangers to each other.”
“Clark, no need for that.” Carmina groin
Emily wanted to tease her; she was already pissed off at her rudeness.
“Yes, tell him maybe one day you too will bump into each other on the road. You could say hello, right, my niece.”
“Aunt!” she whispered.
“Say it if you don’t want, but I’m the one who tells him your name.”
So, you can tell me your name, but if you don’t want to, that’s okay. But for me, I will tell you my name. I am Clark Generoso.” He needs to know her name. He doesn’t want to think about what is important now that he knows the woman’s name.
“Damnit, I hate you Clark,” Carmina grumbled.
It’s embarrassing if she didn’t tell her name to him. Well, it’s just a name. “Tamara Legarda.”
“Nice meeting you, Tamara.” Clark reached out his hand to it.
Tamara looked at her aunt.
Her eyes widen at her, like they are telling her to reach out.
She didn’t want to, but she still reached out. “Nice meeting you too, Clark.”
Clark smiled at the woman. And he squeezed her palm.
Tamara feels strange about what she did. She felt electricity enter her heart.
Damm, she’s really angry because of what Clark did. ” Clark, let’s go; I’m going to have my photo shot!” She pretended so they could leave because she didn’t like what she saw right now. If she was like a tiger now because of the jealousy she felt, Clark wouldn’t like it. Because of her annoyance, she forgot to change her clothes. And when she realized herself, “Damnit!” Without saying a word, she went to the fitting room and quickly took off the clothes that she had just put on and left them inside. After she came out, Clark was still in the same position as the woman, and they were still holding hands. He was too fast to go near him.
Before Clark let go of the woman’s palm, he squeezed it again. It’s as if he said We will meet again. Tamara.
When Carmina saw what he did, she was so annoyed that she pulled Clark’s arm. Let’s go! I’m late! ” There is anger in her voice. She really hated what she saw.
Before Clark turned around, “Tamara, thank you!” he chased.
Suddenly, a sweet smile appeared on Tamara’s lips. “You are welcome!” she replied.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
Before Clark turned back, he saw that smile of hers. He realized that the woman was beautiful and that she had a pretty smile.
