The Glimpse of My Past

Diane’s P. O. V.

“We’re going out. I just came from a whole day of work, and I haven’t eaten yet my dinner,” he said with a magnificent smile. His deep dimple showed again, starting to melt me when I couldn’t even glance away. His tone sounded a little bit commanding, but it wasn’t throttling.

Jeez, I’m so excited to be with him!

Although Liam just declared it without even asking me if I would be willing to go and have some dinner with him, I still couldn’t contain this exhilarating feeling. My feet abruptly felt like barely touching the ground, and I guessed that it would not even take long for me to surely faint here.

“Oh, sure thing! I’ll just need a minute to change my clothes. Anyway, take care of these for now. I’ll be right back, promise!” I responded hastily while handing him the red roses.

Oh my God! Did I sound too excited? Although I was awake, my blood kept on wakening my brain.

My smile grew on its own harmony that I couldn’t hide it anymore. It appeared like my excitement switch had been turned on and I didn’t have the power to turn it off.

Liam lifted his chin and pushed his chest out, showing oozing confidence. It was unparalleled, and my happiness skyrocketed.

“It’s okay, Diane. I will always wait for you, so just take your time and don’t mind me here,” he uttered before I turned my back on him. Actually, I couldn’t even step away from him, but I had to because we would soon be leaving.

It was only then that I noticed that almost everyone in the club ended up watching us as if we were having a movie shoot. There were only a few times in my life where vivacity washed over me, and tonight was completely different, so I would like to apologize to them if my feelings were too obvious.

As I analyzed their pretty glances, my co-dancers were smiling at me. Janina even lifted and balled her right hand that signified, “Fighting!” On the counter was Socorro, who raised her classic mojito and mixed mocktails in the air as she winked while cheering for me.

But on top of them, there were a few men who were looking at us with suspicion and jealousy. I couldn’t blame them anyway. The star dancer of Lucy’s Club who they admired for years had already met a dazzling man who was a lot better than them.

Bumping with Martina in the hallway while going to the dressing room, I told her that I would be going home already. I apologized to her for I would not be able to watch her dance number when today was our first night of officially becoming friends.

“Don’t worry, I understand. The night is still young and based on the lovely rose on your left ear, I guess you have a date already, my dear. Hmm, is it Leandro?” Martina asked as she noticed my red rose.

“Oh, no. He’s not him! I told you, I’m avoiding him.” I smiled at her while shaking my head and removing my mask at the same time. I wondered what would be her reaction once she learned the fact that my date would be Liam, who was Leandro’s brother and look-alike.

“Okay, whoever he is… I can see the glow in your eyes. You two should enjoy the night together.” Martina leaned on me closely as she bluntly whispered the words, “Want to have some condoms?”

“Hey, I’m fine! I mean, it’s not that I’m going to be laid tonight. We’ll just eat dinner together, and he will send me home after.” I blushed. But at the same time, my mind remembered our conversation earlier, and I couldn’t help but feel curious about having a dick navigating my core.

Hell crazy! Why would I even think about it? 

She tucked in some of my loose hair strands at the back of my right ear. “Oh, my innocent Claire! I just loved to see your reaction, but in the first place, you should let that hidden beast inside you to explore a little bit of what real life has to offer! I just want you to be extra careful, my dear. Anyway, I’ll go ahead. Enjoy the dick-oh, my tongue got slipped. I mean, the dinner.” Martina playfully winked, and the two of us went in opposite directions of the corridor.

Rushing through the dressing room and scanning myself in front of the whole-body mirror made me realize that I couldn’t wear this fitted dress with Liam. It was quite skimpy and daring-where the edge would get even higher once I took my seat. As such, I rummaged through my allocated cabinet here.

In the end, I wore my off-shoulder white blouse and ripped denim jeans. I placed the red rose inside my shoulder bag and just brought out my red blazer. After that, I silently scrutinized myself in front of the vanity mirror. Using my fingers, I stroked my straightened hair upwards and just let it to messily fall over my shoulder. I also applied a little lipstick before I decided to go.

As I made a few strides towards Liam, I curved my lips into a sweet smile while my eyes were glued at him. He smiled back as he was gentleman enough to open the glass door for me.

“After you,” he motioned me to saunter first.

“Thanks,” I muttered while feeling his gentle hand on my elbow. I didn’t flinch and just let him do that until we reached the parking lot. However, I couldn’t see his black or red car.

Although it seemed like changing his cars too often was already normal as changing his clothes, I was still surprised to see that his car for tonight was different again. It was a white SUV.

So, from black Delgz convertible last night to red corvette stingray this morning, and to white Lexus this evening, what would be the next on the upcoming days? Should I expect a blue Grand Tourer tomorrow or a yellow top-of-the-line Maserati next week?

He carefully assisted me in opening the door, getting inside the car, and fastening my seatbelt. I couldn’t ignore the shiver that swept me when Liam’s scent seemed to be infusing inside the car, soothing my nostrils. After that, we immediately left the place.

Liam took me to a five-star restaurant located on the ground floor of a well-known hotel in Quego del Mar. But when we were in front of the glass door, I got a little bit confused that I stopped going inside.

Why does it seem like there were no other customers here, aside from the two of us? I shrugged.

Like what Martina had said earlier, the night was still young. It was actually ten minutes before eleven o’clock. Today was also a Sunday, and this was a famous restaurant. It was expected that there could still be lots of people hanging out even at this hour, knowing how delicious the foods were served here.

“Well, I rented the whole place just for the two of us. Do you like it?” Liam said as if he had read what was on my mind. “So, shall we?”

He was all-out smiling. He held my hand, and we entered the restaurant together. I suddenly got electrified with his touch, and that electricity quickly enveloped my entire body. It made me feel great about the whole day we had been almost together, and nothing felt this right could possibly go wrong.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

“Yeah, I like it… but you don’t have to rent the whole place for me. We will never run out of space here.” I pulled my hand from him and patted his bicep.
