Aurora: A Name which came from the Dawn

Chapter 2: Each Sentiment

Aurora woke up from her deep sleep with saliva dripping. She quickly got up and ensconced herself on the couch, and Lori chuckled because of the bafflement on her face. Aurora was dazed by what Lori said. The painter is on his way.

"Oh, no. We haven't eaten our lunch yet," Aurora said.

"Come, let's munch the piping hot Pork Ribs with Ginger and Chili," Lori said.

A sound of rumbling emanated from Aurora's stomach. She felt hungry suddenly for what her Aunt had said. Lori has a Bachelor's Degree in Culinary Arts. There's no denying that she's good at cooking.

Lori is exceptionally good in gourmet and molecular gastronomy cuisine, yet she's bad at finding a genuine partner.

The two of them went straight to the dining room to eat their savory food, then Lori opened the refrigerator to get a bottle of cola, and proceeded. Aurora sat down first because she was certainly hungry. On the side, Lori was making a sweet and sour sauce for their dish in order to provide moisture and more flavor to the dish. After Lori made the sauce, they ate immediately seeing that the hired painter may come later.

The time is going on, and the sun is still up. Everyone's preparing for their different activities when dusk takes place, and so the moon. Claudio is on his way towards his client's house.

On his way to his destination, a woman was wearing a red blouse and skirt with a black ribbon in her hair. The woman was walking towards Claudio's way. Claudio realizes that the woman was his ex-girlfriend when they were still in high school, then overcame with an intense degree of regret.

The woman beckoned to Claudio.

"Hey, hey. Is that you, Claudio?" The woman said.

Claudio slightly looked embarrassed then bowed his head suddenly.

"How rude, you shouldn't do that. Didn't you love me so much at first?" She said.

Claudio got pissed by his ex-girlfriend's words and expression. The woman abruptly grabbed Claudio's arms and clasped them, and in the middle of the walkway, they talked. She asked Claudio if he could accompany her. She said she was just going somewhere. Claudio was silent with his downcast eyes. The woman winked at Claudio and showed her captivating smile.

"Stop it," Claudio muttered.

Rhiannon looked at him in dismay, and let go of Claudio's arm then back off. She showed a slight discomposure when he heard what Claudio had said. He could not control himself, so he spoke up about his feelings.

"Aren't you still satisfied with what you did?" Claudio muttered. "Isn't it enough, the infidelity and obscenity you did that night? I saw everything, and whenever those memories come back, it always leaves a pang in my heart."

"It was just a kiss and one more thing, I don't love you," Rhiannon said. "It was just a dare, a challenge. Everything. But I can pretty say that, even if you are stupid for not noticing everything, you're still a good and reliable person."

Claudio was shocked by Rhiannon's views and opinions. He got angry.

The passage of people coincided with Rhiannon's hysterical laugh, and at the same time, as she left, she rolled her eyes to Claudio.

"That Bummer," Claudio muttered.

Claudio looked at his wristwatch to look at what time it was. He was surprised to see that the time was near, so he immediately looked for a taxi. Claudio still can't forget what Rhiannon said, he realized that all this time, he was just being played by Rhiannon. He snapped at it and gritted his teeth. A few minutes later, he got a taxi and rode towards the client's house.
