CHAPTER 14
THAT morning, Clark gets dressed early to go see Tamara. It’s not good if he’s not going to them. They might think he’s a liar or impromptu person.
When he came down, he was about to go out the door when his maid called him.Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
“Sir, just a moment!” she said loudly.
Clark stopped and waited for her to approach him.
When she was in front of him, “Yes, Glenda. Do you have something to say to me? ”
“Sir, you have an invitation card that arrived yesterday. It might be important.”
“Okay, give it to me.”
“Just a moment, sir, I’ll get it.”
Okay, I’ll wait here. Make it fast please, I’m going somewhere. ”
She nodded and hurried to the table where the invitation was.
Clark, are you going somewhere? You didn’t have breakfast, did you? ” Nana Mabel came out of the kitchen.
“Yes, Nana, I’ll just have breakfast where I’m going.”
Nana Mabel stared at Clark. His aura is different because his face is brighter now.
Clark frowned. He noticed the lady staring at him. “Nana, what’s wrong with my face?”
The lady smiled. “Nothing, Clark. But there is a change.
“Have I become more handsome, Nana?” He joked.
“You used to be handsome, Clark.” I can see you’re happy. ”
“Well, remember that I’m telling you, Nana.”
“That’s what you said you were dating?”
“Yes.”
“Did she answer yes already?” There is excitement on her face.
“Hmmm, that seems to be that way, Nana, and there is even better news.”
“Really? What, Clark? ” Nana Mabel was especially excited.
“I asked her to marry me.”
“What? “Marriage soon?” The lady was shocked. She didn’t think he could say the word “marriage.”
“Nana, of course!”
“Clark, is that you, huh?” Or maybe you just have a fever. ” She came even closer and touched Clark’s forehead.
Clark laughed. “Nana Mabel, I’m fine, I’m not sick. You know me, the word “sick” is not suitable for me. I am a healthy man. ”
“Because you’re talking about marriage, right?”
“Yes Nana, I want to have a child as much as possible. ”
“Clark, is that your reason?”
“Yes, Tamara can give it to me, Nana.”
“Sir, here is your invitation.”
“Thank you, Glenda.” The woman nods at him.
“Nana, I have to go now.”
“Alright, there’s still a lot of time for you to tell me who Tamara is.”
“Nana, I’m not just going to tell you, I’m going to introduce Tamara to you.”
“You said that, Clark.”
“Nana, you know me. I’m not a lying person, but now I need to go.”
“Always be careful, Clark.”
“I will, Nana. Even now I have Tamara. ” He got out and quickly got into his car.
The lady looked at Clark with a smile. He really couldn’t believe what he had been taught. Well, he’s getting married right away. He knows he doesn’t want to get married. He doesn’t want to tie the knot with a woman. For her, what is happening is a miracle.
At that moment, Carmina was outside Clark’s house. Like a private investigator, when she saw Clark’s car leave, she secretly followed it. It already knew where he was going. But she still wanted to be sure if that was where Clark was going.
At the shop, Tamara was busy that morning because there were many customers.
“Auntie, why are there so many people today?”
“Yes, a lot.” I heard that there was a shooting here today. ”
“That’s why, Auntie.”
It’s good that there are so many. So, we can go home early today.
“Yes, Auntie.”
The influx of people who will take part in the upcoming shooting of a Filipino film continues. That way, Tamara was so busy with a lot of people buying their items.
Clark was already in the Obando parking area when he looked at the invitation card placed on the other seat. He took it and opened it. “Gala party?”
This is from a friend whose business is a famous jewelry store in the country. Only those with a lot of money can buy it. Clark knew that his friend was going to release a new product, and he smiled. “Okay, I’ll take Tamara with me,” he said.
Clark got out of his car with a smile and went to where Tamara was.
At the shop, only one person is looking at what she bought, so Emily tells Tamara to eat first.
“Auntie, let’s have breakfast together.”
“You first, so there’s a guard here.”
Tamara sat down and took out their food.
Clark took a big step. He was so excited and his heart was full of longing to see Tamara.
Carmina clenched her fist and she could see the excitement on Clark’s face. “Why is she, Clark? There are more women out there who are better than me. She’s poor. Maybe she’s chasing your wealth. Well, if that’s what the woman you’re crazy about is aiming for, she better get ready for me because I’m going to make her bald right in front of you! ” For now, she’ll let Clark stay because he was so attracted to the woman because they had just met. He’s like that, but when Clark gets tired of her, he’ll come back to her. She wants to laugh. If this happens, she will really laugh at it. And that means that they are meant for each other.
Clark peeked at Tamara’s place to see if anything was there, but he didn’t see anything. Suddenly, he felt depressed.
“Auntie, I’m done with your turn to eat,” Tamara suddenly appeared.
Clark smiled when he saw her. His heart is like a lion roaring so loud. He slowly walked towards her.
Tamara was busy folding the messed up clothes. That’s why he didn’t realize that there was someone behind him. But she could smell something familiar to her.
“Good morning, honey!” someone whispered in her ear.
Even Tamara didn’t even look back to see who it was. Her heart knows who it’s by the voice and smell. That’s how quickly she memorized it.
“Is there any answer to that, honey?” Clark brought his lips even closer to Tamara’s ear.
Intensity by 10 degrees seems to be hitting Tamara at that time. She could only think of one thing to do to face him and feel the tension in her body caused by this.
Emily was speechless as she looked at the two. She ignored them and focused on the food.
With his heart said, Clark hooked both arms around Tamara’s waist. “Honey, talk to me please!” he whispered again.
Tamara’s body stiffened. She felt the warmth of Clark’s body, especially his hard chest and mostly the one below his belt. And she felt her body was going to heat up.
Tamara did want what she felt and before developing a fever. She turned around to face him. just to be surprised. Because he greeted her with a sweet kiss on her lips.
Those who want to buy or passed by, looked at them with a smile on their lips.
Emily just finished eating. “Ehem, business before that!” she said with a smile.
When Tamara heard her auntie, she pushed Clark.
Clark released her, but only on the lips.
“Auntie!” Tamara looked embarrassed.
“Why are you courting so early, Clark?”
“Auntie, I’m not courting her anymore. She’s my girlfriend and soon to be my wife.”
“Alright, I have nothing more to say. Will you help us today?”
“Of course, Auntie, so that we can sell out quickly.”
“Really? I guess that’s difficult.
“It’s easy, Aunt, just watch me.”
“What will you do?” Tamara asked him.
“Honey, you watch me too. “Wait, if there are many we can sell, I have a condition.”
“Condition? What? ”
“Auntie, my honey is coming with me!”
Tamara’s feet are tickled when he calls her honey.
“Where, Clark?”
“A date, auntie?”
“Alright, I’ll agree.” But let’s see if you can sell a lot. ”
Clark slipped his polo shirt up to his elbows and looked at Tamara. He gave her a wink.
Tamara smiled at him.
“Ladies and gentlemen, come here, I take 2!” he shouted.
Tamara’s eyes widened. Emily was smiling.
“Auntie, this is not right. We lost!”
Emily was speechless because she was amused by Clark.
Apparently, Tamara didn’t want to lose money, so she approached Clark.
“What are you talking about? Are you going to make us lose money?”
Clark faced her with a smile. “No honey, I will not do that.”
“No? Uh, what are you doing now is making us lose money? ”
“Come here, honey.”
“What?” She went near him.
“I’ll just pay for the take two items so you can go home early for our date.”
“You’re really bad!” she kept smiling.
“Lovely smile, honey!”
“See!” she turned her back on him because there were many people coming to their shop.
The smile on Clark’s lips did not disappear. And he keeps calling more buyers so that they can sell easily.
