Flash Marriage Makes A Perfect Match

Carmencita has insomnia.

The next morning, when she woke up, she looked at herself in the mirror with two dark circles under her eyes and sighed that she must avoid Marco from now on, otherwise she would lose sleep every time she saw him.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

However, when she left the house and walked past the Pastrano family, she couldn’t resist looking inside to see if she could see Marco.

The courtyard was empty and there was no Marco in sight.

This time he has had a more difficult mission, so I think he should have had some time off after his return, and with all the tiredness he usually has, he should still be sleeping at the moment.

This thought had just settled in when a familiar voice sounded behind him.

“See what?”

She turned her head and saw Marco staring expressionlessly at her in his thin tracksuit, his hands cupped in his trouser pockets.

When she saw Marco in front of her, she took a big step back, shocked, and spoke in a slightly embarrassed manner: “What are you, what are you doing here?

Come to think of it, how could Marco be in the habit of sleeping late when he was used to living in the army?

Marco did not answer her question, but asked rhetorically: “Are you going to work?

“Hmm.” Carmencita nodded, her gaze swept over his face and she quickly withdrew.

Marco didn’t get much sleep last night either. The girl he had grown up with was suddenly going to walk away from him and he didn’t know why, so no matter how he thought about it, he felt stuffed, so he got up early in the morning.

“I’ll give you a lift. Marco lifted his wrist to check the time and, without giving him a chance to refuse, said: “Wait for me, I’ll get the car.

He is such a man, domineering and somewhat authoritarian.

Carmencita had to stand still and wait for him, and it didn’t take long for him to come out.

The carriage was so quiet that neither of them started a conversation.

Marco had not spoken, but had been distracted by her every move. She was not as talkative and active as before, and that made her a little uncomfortable, so she took the initiative to find something to say.

“How are you getting used to being in Barreda’s company?”

“It’s OK, my second brother takes care of me”.

“Hmm.”

The conversation ended there, and the carriage was silent and somewhat indescribably strange.

When she arrived at the office, Carmencita said goodbye and fled.

Marco sat in his car and watched her figure disappear into the entrance of the office, his heart growing sadder and sadder.

He took out a cigarette, took two puffs and put it out again, and drove home.

On his way home, he met Barreda at the door, who had returned from outside.

When they both returned yesterday, they were separated at the airport, and when he returned from his mission, he naturally had to go to the army, and when he got home, he found that Barreda had not returned either.

Following this incident, the two brothers have grown closer.

Marco, as an older brother, still decided to take an interest in his younger brother.

He spoke and asked Barreda: “Where did you go yesterday?

“I haven’t gone anywhere, just to the flat in the centre.” There was a subtle hint of softness in Barreda’s expression as he said this, and Marco raised an eyebrow at it.

He thought of Carmencita and spoke again and asked Marco: “Did Carmencita do something strange the other day when you took her to the airport?

Marco thought for a moment and shook his head, “No”.

In his opinion, Carmencita was a bit unusual, but even if he had said so, he, the older brother, would not have understood.

At that moment, Marco nodded and went upstairs.

Throughout the day, nothing Marco could do at home felt right.

Late in the afternoon, he thought that Carmencita was not going to drive today and thought of picking her up from work.

However, when he called Carmencita, he did not expect to be rejected out of hand.

“Brother, have a good rest at home, I have something to do after work, you don’t have to pick me up, sorry ah, I have something to do, I’ll hang up first.”

He heard the young woman on the other end of the phone utter a string of words of rejection and hung up immediately.

Grim-faced, he headed to the office anyway near the end of Carmencita’s shift, intending to pick her up from work.

However, when she arrived at the office, Carmencita had already left as if she had scheduled it in advance.

He called Carmencita again, who did not answer, and went to Barreda’s office in a rage.

Barreda was on his way home from work when he looked up to see Marco kicking in the door with a black face.

“Where is Carmencita?” asked Marco with an expressionless face.

Barreda froze for a moment before smiling: “Looks like he’s gone with Silo. ”

“Who?” Marco frowned, unconvinced.

“Silo, my secretary saw him pick up Carmencita earlier. “He wasn’t really lying, he had asked his secretary to bring him something he was going to take home from work earlier and she had just seen the scene.

“Where did they go?”

Barreda spreads his hands: “How should I know?

Marco turned and walked away, with a cold aura of strangeness around him.

Barreda stepped forward, stopping Marco with a quick glance, and asked: “What are you going to do?

Marco looked at him with an angry face and his tone was cold: “Of course I’m going to get that girl back, Carmencita, what’s the point of fooling around with men at a young age!”

Barreda was in tears, how young people fall in love, but when it comes to Marco, it becomes silly.

“Brother, calm down and listen to me, Carmencita is no longer a child, she is twenty-one, the right age to fall in love, even if she wants to go and get married now, she is of age, she only dates men now, even if it is Uncle Ortis and Aunt Ortis, they don’t mind so much. ”

Barreda, in a rare show of patience, reasoned with Marco, but it was clear that he did not want to hear it.

He looked at Barreda coolly: “Even if she were to fall in love, why should I stay away? And that brat Silo is not even suitable for her.

Yes, I just didn’t think Silo was right for Carmencita, I didn’t think anything else.

“Big brother, you really don’t get it or not, Carmencita has always liked you, we all thought it was a childish little fight, nobody took it to heart, but look, now she’s graduating from college, so many good kids her age at school, but she’s tough on nobody, now she’s started to distance herself from you and has started dating Silo, but that’s because, she’s given up on you.”

Marco’s face paled slightly: “What do you mean?

Barreda didn’t mind giving her a good dose: “Carmencita has decided that she doesn’t like you anymore, that’s why she’s distancing herself from you, she’s getting ready to accept another man, to fall in love with another man, to get married, to have sex, to have children and spend her life with another man.
