In the past, Micaela could get up on time in the morning without an alarm clock, but since she was with Carlos, especially after having an intimate relationship, her rest was no longer regular. Even though she hadn’t made love to him the night before, she still wasn’t awake until seven o’clock.
When Carlos finished exercising and washed up, he saw his little girl sleeping soundly with her pillow, and the corners of his lips couldn’t help but lift.
Even if he didn’t do anything, just looking at her sleeping face like that, he felt very satisfied.
Noticing his phone light up on the nightstand, Carlos picked it up and it was Eric’s call.
Picking it up, his voice came out:
-Good morning! Get going early. We’ll meet you on Main Street at 8 am, and remember….
Carlos looked at the little girl in bed and said without hesitation:
-Postpone the departure by two hours.
Carlos’ order made Eric freeze, only to hear his voice turn a few degrees colder:
-Do you understand?
Eric was so scared that he answered:
-Yes! -I will inform the crew to postpone their departure by two hours!
Only then Carlos hung up the phone.
Micaela woke up, saw Carlos standing in front of the bed and asked:
-What time is it?
Carlos sat up, stroked her forehead and answered softly:
-It’s still early, you can sleep a little longer.
As Micaela closed her eyes and prepared to go back to sleep, she vaguely felt that something was perverse.
Why did it look like she had just taken a shower?
I have to leave for the recording today!
Micaela hurried to open her eyes again and saw Carlos leaning in just in time to kiss her.
Micaela’s heart raced instantly.
-Carlos, I don’t want to sleep…..
The soft voice fascinated Carlos as he looked at her.
-Can’t you wait to get going?
Micaela looked at him with fascination, making his heart beat faster. She threw back the covers and tried to get out of bed, answering:
-Yes! I think it would be fun to go hiking with everyone!
She was in a bit of a hurry and almost fell out of bed when Carlos picked her up in his arms.
Carlos squeezed her arms:
-Little girl, are you still shy?
A honeyed voice seduced the heart.
Micaela blushed and buried her face in his arms, whispering:
-Any woman would be shy if you looked at her like that.
Carlos stroked her long hair:
-I just look at you like that…..
Micaela was so shy that she tried to push him away.
-Carlos, you’re too good at talking about honey! Have you eaten honey?
It was very rare for the little girl to flirt with him like that, so Carlos was in a good mood and didn’t let her go, approaching her:
-You’ll know when you taste it.
Micaela let out a giggle and pushed him away:
-No, I’m going to brush my teeth.
Seeing her bright smile, Carlos’ heart filled with joy and he reluctantly let her go. The little girl immediately blushed and went into the bathroom.
He picked up Micaela’s phone and called Eric again:
-Get going on time!
Main Street was a relatively isolated part of Teladia and a major artery of the province. The road was wide and there were no houses around except for leafy trees.
When Carlos and Micaela arrived, it was still a few minutes before eight o’clock. Everyone was there.
Because a group of couples had been eliminated in the sports day, there were only five couples left on site.
The crew was filming the opening scene now. Carlos and Micaela began to be captured on video as soon as they got out of the car.
Alba excitedly ran over and hugged Micaela:
-Micaela, are you happy, are you excited?
Micaela nodded her head vigorously. The other two stars, Coco Xirau and Albina Rubio, also approached her and treated her friendly.
Romina had a look of contempt.
I don’t want to be with them!
Glancing at Moises next to her, she saw that he was watching Micaela, jealous.
They were all wearing their outer sportswear, uniforms that the crew had distributed after the last sports day. The whole team looked energetic.
Ernesto looked at Alba and Micaela’s enthusiasm, thinking about the next ten days of travel, and said with some concern:
-Let’s hope they can keep up that great enthusiasm!
Eric and the program manager went over to hold the meeting.
With the map in hand, the person in charge looked at the group and said:
-According to the purpose, you organize and decide for yourselves the journey along the way. You can appoint one of you as your captain to play a decisive role.
Moses immediately volunteered:
-I want to be the captain!
Being the captain should give him a better chance to interact with Micaela.
Ernesto took the map in the hands of the person in charge and looked sideways at Moises:
-This is hard work. You can follow the team quietly.
Saying this, he handed the map to Carlos.
Moises was instantly furious!
-Do you doubt that he doesn’t have the ability to do it?
At least he graduated from the noble university of Fracimon Nation. He was once captain of the climbing team!
Pascual and Hugo were quick to echo:
-We think the most appropriate thing to do is Mr. Aguayo!
-Yes, we have great confidence in Mr. Aguayo’s ability.
Several women had no opinion on who the captain should be, it was not their turn anyway.
Carlos did not pick up the map, but looked at Moises and said indifferently:
-Mr. Pomar, look at the map first and plan a route for us. If the route is reasonable, you will be the captain.
Then Moises took the map away from Ernesto’s hand, but as soon as he opened it, he became dizzy.
What the hell is this dense drawing?
I can’t even read it, let alone plan the route!
Moises pretended to be calm and handed the map to Carlos.
-Since everyone thinks you’re better suited, I’ll follow the majority in the minority.
The corners of Carlos’ mouth hooked slightly as he took it, opening and reading it carefully.
Ernesto wanted to say something else, but was dragged away by Alba:
-Ernesto, stop it! Don’t embarrass him. You have to be calm and you have to get along with him in the future. Are you going to show the audience how calculating you are?
Although Ernesto was not willing to lose to him the last time, he felt that what Alba said made sense. Then he took her by the shoulders and gave her a kiss on the cheek:
-You’re right, honey!
