Love and marriage are two things that Charles doesn't believe in. He's one of the best Formula 1 drivers known worldwide and among the women who are crazy about him, there is still one who doesn't know his existence. Not until she was somehow forced...
On our way to their garage, madaming fans ang sumasalubong kay Charles. Most of them are asking for his autograph and photos, which he also happily does them.
"Charles! Are you and Camille really over now? We like her for you!"
"Is that your new girl, Charles? What's her name?"
"Charles, can you sign my cap please?"
"Is she your new girlfriend?"
"Take a picture with us!"
I feel so out of place, kasi naman, masyadong famous si Charles para sa katulad ko. I just positioned myself beside him, hindi ko alam kung ano ang gagawin. Should I also interact with his fans? Should I offer to take photos for them? Need ko pa ba i-assist si Charles sa mga nanghihingi ng pirma niya?
Para akong timang na nasa likuran or nasa gilid niya. Girlfriend ba ako or estatwa niya?
"Hello, what's your name?" A little girl poked me. Ang cute cute niya, sobrang liit! May hawak hawak din siya na parang photo card na may mukha ni Charles. She's also wearing a ferrari cap, ang cute!
"You can just call me ate Red!" I lowered myself para magka-level ang mga mata namin.
"What's ate?"
"You use that word to call someone who's older than you." She looks so adorable, nagpa-pout pa habang nakikinig sa akin.
"Okay, ate Red!" I tucked a loose hair behind her ear. I also noticed her eyes focused on my bracelet. Mahilig kasi ako sa mga beaded bracelets, lagi akong gumagawa tapos binibigay sa mga friends ko.
What I'm wearing as of the moment is a simple bracelet I probably made last week, lahat ito ay pearls na nakashape into flowers.
"Do you like it?" I asked her. She nodded while giggling. "Do you want it?"
Parang nahiya siya ng in-offer ko ang wrist ko na suot ang bracelet. I removed the bracelet and nilagay ko 'yon sa mga kamay niya. She smiled while looking at her little hand containing it.
"Do you want me to put it on you?"
"Thank you ate Red, when will I see you again?"
"Do you want to see me again?" Tumango lang siya habang pinapakita sa akin ang wrist niya. "Whenever you attend this kind of event again, look for this man." Tinuro ko si Charles na busy pa din sa mga fans niya. "I'm always arround him, so you'll see me as well."
Tumayo na ako dahil tinatawag na siya ng daddy niya. When I turned to Charles, I saw him smiling at me.
"What?" I mouthed, pero he only shrugged and extended his arm signaling me to come closer to him.
"Everyone, this is Red." All the cameras immediately turned to me. Ang awkward, this is my first time getting so much attention.
"Hello," I shyly said to the fans that I could make eye contact with. As much as possible, I'm trying to interact with all of them.
His fans also smiled and greeted me. Grabe, ang babait nila! Some are even asking me questions! It's impossible to answer all of them so I stayed silent na lang.
Charles looked bewildered when he saw how his fans reacted to me. Napatingin din siya sa akin and he gave me a meaningful smile. He grabbed me by the waist and whispered, "I told you, they like you."
My cheeks heated, hindi ko kinaya 'yun! Ang sexy ng boses niya!!!!!!!! Sobrang namumula ata ako ngayon dahil pati ang fans niya ay napatingin din sa akin.
I held my cheeks, trying to cover the blush.
"Sorry everyone, this is my first time standing in front of a large crowd." I heard some of them laugh, pero mas rinig ko ang tawa ni Charles. Tuwang tuwa siya eh! "I'm shy around many people. Please bear with me."
Most of them said that it was okay, I also heard some comments praising how cute and pretty I look. I only mouthed 'thank you' to them before Charles pulled me to walk away from the scene.
"I saw you with the kid," Sabi niya nung malayo na kami sa mga tao. "you're great with children. Do you have a sibling?"
"Siblings," I corrected him. "I have two brothers, I'm the middle child and the only daughter of our family."
"We're the same then!" He claimed.
"You're the only daughter too?"
He pinched my waist resulting me to flinch and move away from his arm wrapping me.
"I also have 2 brothers, I'm the middle." He pointed out.
"You stay with Alex, okay?" I nodded before he left to prepare for the race.
