C1 Chapter 1

Ruby was driving her yellow luxury convertible on the paved roads of Mexico where the temperature was high, and her two friends were shaking their bodies to the sound of loud music, said Ruby loudly.

" Are you bored like me?

Megan said yes

Sure, school is over and we can only hang around the streets

Maya shouted in a peremptory tone

Stop here and go to this shop

Ruby stopped her car, complaining

Don't you get tired of shopping?!

The two girls got up and said in one voice

" Start

She turned off the recorder and leaned her body on the seat for a moment

But my closet will explode if you shop now

Suddenly an old pickup truck stopped near them, some parts of it corroded and rusted. Behind it sat a man with bronze skin, broad shoulders, wearing a t"shirt showing the strength of his arms and the solidity of his chest, his short locks of hair slipping scatterly over his forehead, he took the towel from the boy sitting next to him and wiped the drops of sweat from his forehead. And he says

Do you feel hungry and thirsty like me, Tony?

The boy sighed tightly

You'd better hurry before I die of thirst, it seems that working with you is not at all suitable for me

The man with alluring features yelled at him, reprimanding him

Shut up, or I'll tell your mom everything

Exhale with great grumbling

" Oh Carlos, don't start now... well I'll take it and never complain

He patted his hand on the boy's hair, caressing and a sarcastic smile on his delicately drawn lips

" Be a good boy

Tony shook his head, annoyed

Carlos, stop messing with my hair

He stopped his engine and said Carlos seriously

Now what do you like to eat?

He replied wearily, leaning his arm against the window

" Anything... Anything

Maya's eyes widened in surprise as she gestured with her hand

" Do you see what he saw?

The two girls turned their eyes between her and her outstretched hand

" What is there Yamaya?

Maya replied with a wide smile and eyes sparkling with something hidden

Oh, how handsome he is

Megan asked her curiously

" who do you mean?

She lowered her hand so that the man would not notice her and nodded her head clearly

" The owner of the truck, I did not see this man's handsomeness

Ruby let out a sarcastic sigh

" You mean that moron in dirty clothes... he must be a homeless

She licked her lips in displeasure

Oh Robbie, stop talking about him like that

Megan looked at him intently and puzzled

" It seems strange this man I have never seen before in this town

Ruby got angry

" Stop talking about it, Atrian how filthy he is... Oh my God, what's wrong with you, are you mad?

Maya replied to tease her

" Well, he's dirty and handsome, can he even look at you?

Ruby furrowed her eyebrows in exasperation

" Maya, are you kidding me, in one second I'm going to lose his mind

She answered sarcastically as she leaned her body on the car

" He didn't even care

She said with high confidence as she lifted her shoulders and left half her hair in front of her chest

Watch what I do now

She took graceful steps towards him, but he quickly ignored her presence and hit her on the shoulder and did not even feel it, her cheeks turned red in embarrassment and retreated towards her friends disappointed

" I've decided to change my mind, not now when he leaves the store

Maya interrupted her wearily

It would seem like a silly idea, you better back off

Ruby replied seriously

Does it bother you to lose a bet?

impatient Megan says

" It doesn't look fun, let's go shopping and have fun there more

Ruby reassured her as she answered

We'll go shopping for sure, but not before I do whatever comes to my mind

Minutes later, the truck driver came out, and she took Ruby walking towards him, and she called in front of him for her bag to fall.

" Thanks

I looked with disgust at his arm dirty with car oil while he was holding a water bottle and some sandwiches

He asked her politely as he handed her the bottle

" Are you feeling thirsty ?

Ruby felt disgusted by him as she was near him and she could hardly say

" Much

He extended his arm towards her and said seriously

Carlos Alias claimed

She took the bottle from him and emptied it on his head, saying with a biting irony

Wash first, and then introduce yourself, moron

He froze in place and drops of water started to trickle down his shocked face and chest until his sandwiches got wet

She took a handkerchief out of her purse and added sarcastically

Wipe your face and don't try to look at people like me, you filthy

She took a step away from him, and he also stopped in his place and a feeling of resentment and anger penetrated deep within him, but he controlled his nerves and did not pay her any attention.

Maya was surprised by her behavior

" What did you do, you madman?

She replied laughing sarcastically

" Did you like what I just did.. he thought for a moment that I liked him.. rude

Megan's answer is scolded

" What you just did was wrong and you deserve to be killed for it, let's get out of here quickly

Ruby sat behind the wheel and started the engine confidently

Oh my God, you were such a good actress

Megan leaned back in her seat

" crazy

Maya agreed aloud

" and often

Ruby turned the tide, saying

" The day after my birthday party, will you come?

Maya's features brightened and responded cheerfully

" We'll finish the party in the casino, but don't you pretend Jeremy, I don't know what you liked, that he's stupid and stupid.

Ruby slapped her sharply

I won't let you talk about him like that, one day he'll be my husband

Megan put her hands on her head in shock

Oh, Ruby, are you kidding us?

Maya said seriously

I don't think your father would accept him as a husband

I sighed very tightly

I will marry him, not my father

Megan stuck her face to the window and muttered

" Dumb and crazy

Ruby interrupted her sharply

" What did you just say?

" nothing nothing

As soon as Ruby enters the mansion in her car, she catches a glimpse of her father sitting on the balcony and hopes he will not see her or she will be investigated as usual.

She took light steps, almost jumping to the other side, but her father stopped her firmly

It's eleven, do you think I'm blind and can't see you?

I replied bored

Oh dad, not every time

He took a step towards her and said in a firm tone

" You promised me that you would not be late to return, but you broke your promise, where are the car keys?

I sighed in displeasure

Dad, please don't do this to me

He ignored his daughter's sadness and answered her insistently while opening his palm towards her

" car keys

Suddenly, her mother, Ramona, interrupted them in amazement

"what happens here?

Ruby approached her mother as if asking for help

" Mom, Dad wants to take my car keys

She replied to her husband in a calm tone

Arthur, don't be hard on her, she's your only daughter

He put his arms behind his back and said in a firm tone

This time I will forgive you only for your mother's sake

She quickly hugged her father and kissed him cheerfully

" Thank you, dad

Then she hurried to her room upstairs, threw her body on the bed and picked up the phone.

His answer is apologetic

Well I'm sorry, when are you coming back from your trip the day after tomorrow my birthday party is going to be, I missed you so much

he said softly

" I miss you too, madman, it's good that you told me I'll get you a great gift

exclaimed curiously

" Present! what is it?

Reply to tease her and increase her curiosity

" I won't tell you, will it be a surprise?

She asked him seriously, turning over on her stomach

Jeremy, you don't mess with anyone else, do you?

I paused for a while, then I blushed furiously

" Jeremy!

Take a laugh

" Crazy Ruby is jealous, of course there is no rest assured

The next morning, she woke up disturbed by Lolita's loud voice

" Come on beautiful, get up

She lazily grumbled, pulling the blanket up to her head

" Oh loli stop doing that... I hate you when you wake me up like that

The curtain was quickly pushed back, and the sun's rays penetrated all corners of the room

Stop being lazy and get up

shouted at her snarling

Lolly, go now and I'll get up in a little while, I promise

She pulled the cover off of her and said

" I can't believe you do this every time, be active come on

She got up and had her hair fluffy

Is there anything better than sleeping lolly?

I grabbed her arm and helped her up and then led her to the bathroom

Yes, my love, take a shower and then get active

I helped her take off her clothes and sit in the bathtub, so she screamed angrily

" Damn the water is cold

She almost retreated, but Lolita forced her to sit down

Stop being pampered, Robbie, and sit down

I helped her swim and then wrapped her body in the towel and she says seriously

" Your aunt will come in two hours and you must be in the best suit

I came out of the bathroom upset

My God, how much I hate this woman, I knew she was planning to marry me to her son

I scolded her as she took her clothes out of the closet

" Don't tell her like that, she's your father's sister

She threw herself on the bed, answering indifferently

" As if I care

I sat her down and combed her silky black hair.
