"Woah, Carlos. I never thought you would join us here. Haha. Can you tell us what you mean?" the other girl commented.

"Oh, I- I mean, she's mine that I've been courting and she will be mine at the end of the day. I shall not want her to be betrothed to someone else, and I'll do what I can to be hers," Carlos clarified. I just stared at him in shock, and the ladies I've been talking to had the same expression. At least it's not a joke about a boyfriend.

"I can't believe Carlos would be like this! So this is how he acted when he fell in love, huh?" the other girl said as she looked at her friends.

"You're right, sis! But how about the other man who talked to her earlier?" the other girl asked. I was about to speak, but Carlos interrupted.

"That man is just a stranger who is crazy for (Y/N)," Carlos replied.

"I'm not a stranger! She knows my name," Theo exclaimed.

"Just back off. Even if you said some amusing things to her, you can't have her," Carlos said.

"Pfft, why do you always interrupt us?" Theo scoffed.

"You deserve it. You thought you were a star here," Carlos defended.

"Are they fighting over her?" I heard from the other girl when she whispered to her friend.

"Maybe," the other girl whispered.

"It's fine to be a star. Unlike you, a coward can't take the first move," Theo exclaimed.

"Really? If you think I'm a coward, I will literally show you how brave I am, whether in love or in our fight," Carlos annoyingly exclaimed as he came closer to Theo to fight him, and before that happened, I stopped him by holding his wrist to not continue the fight.

"That's enough. You don't have to fight about what you were fighting about. It's not that important," I exclaimed.

"Oop. It seems there is tension between those two."

"Good luck! We will now go to the Casita for the celebration. See you later!" the other girl exclaimed as she chuckled awkwardly.

"Let's just go, Carlos. Stop glaring at him," I said as I was trying to pull him away. "Are you heavy or what?" I scoffed.

"I'm not done yet with you." Carlos glared at Theo.

"Well, same for me," Theo exclaimed as he walked away.

"Phew, finally. Your acting was really good, huh? It seems real!" I chuckled.

"Uh- yeah yeah. Thanks. Jeez, were you uncomfortable earlier?" He awkwardly chuckled.

"I guess, a little. You were about to start a fight, and earlier, Theo said something about marriage with him," I said.

"I knew it. You don't want to get married to him," he replied.

"Of course! We just met like a month ago. I can't fully trust him," I said.

"Ah, right. Well, I really expected you to be here. You have a nice dress there, huh? You are really trying to impress me," he teased as he laughed.

"Wait-- I'm not trying to impress you! It's not my fault that the dressmaker made it more beautiful," I scoffed.

"A wonderful fault."

"Whatever, Carlos. I will just go back to where my family was," I replied as I was about to walk away, then Carlos spoke.

"Just come with me to go to the Casita. Your relatives wouldn't mind if we went there early, hm?" he suggested.
