Esteban Zaragosa took Dulcina Calvo’s hand and led her out of the Hotel Medio Círculo, all the way Dulcina Calvo wanted to say something, she just lowered her face and looked at Esteban Zaragosa holding his big hand.
Were they … officially boyfriend and girlfriend now?
But he … didn’t seem to say that.
When she had met Lázaro Morejón, she had met a little, but then Lázaro Morejón had left her and had said that he had never said such an asshole thing as that she was his girlfriend.
Dulcina Calvo was more than insecure and worried, although deep down she felt that Esteban Zaragosa was not that kind of person.
“That …”
Dulcina Calvo was about to say something when Esteban Zaragosa’s cell phone message rang.
The man picked up his phone and glanced at it, and Dulcina Calvo also happened to see it; it was a message from Eleanora Peña.
Dulcina Calvo bites her lip and frowns, “You really added Eleanora Pena, didn’t you?”.
That was a sour note.
Esteban Zaragosa raises his eyebrows slightly: “Didn’t you recommend my information number to people? Since you recommended it, wouldn’t I be disrespecting you by not adding it?”.
“…”
And he blames her! How dare this person!
God knows how much Dulcina Calvo did not want to give Eleanora Peña Esteban Zaragosa’s information number.
It’s just that Eleanora Peña was her college friend and current roommate, and since Eleanora Peña paid most of the rent for the apartment they shared, if they didn’t get along, she wouldn’t be able to find a roommate for a while and rent would be a big problem if Eleanora Peña moved out.
Dulcina Calvo elbowed him in the mouth and whispered, “If someone adds you, you add someone else? Don’t all you men reject beautiful women?”
The more I hear this, the more sour I find it.
But the more acidic Dulcina Calvo’s tone became, the more comfortable Esteban Zaragosa’s heart became.
“Jealous?”
Dulcina Calvo pulled her hand away and said in a joking tone, “No, I’m not.”
One snorted and ran out to the front.
Esteban Zaragosa’s mouth ticked and, without even looking at Eleanora Peña’s message, he simply deleted the dialog box, locked the phone and put it in his coat pocket.
When he reached the girl, Esteban Zaragosa took Dulcina Calvo in his arms and, seeing that the tip of her nose was red from the cold, he frowned slightly and scolded her: “What are you doing running in this cold, stay in my arms”.
Dulcina Calvo said she wasn’t cold, but she moved honestly in Esteban Zaragosa’s arms, her eyes drooping with shyness and joy.
But on second thought, Dulcina Calvo suddenly realized a terrible question and asked, “You’re not with me to get close to Eleanora Pena, are you?”
“…”
Esteban Zaragosa raised his hand and slapped him on the forehead.
“Oh… that hurts!”
Esteban Zaragosa looked coldly at her little face, “What are you thinking?”
Dulcina Calvo brushed her lips in disbelief: “It’s not that it never happened to me. When I was in college, I had a lot of love letters from my male classmates.”
Esteban Zaragosa’s face darkened at this.
But the next moment, Dulcina Calvo smiled a sly, bright smile at him, “But they were all directed at Eleanora Peña, I was in the same dorm as Eleanora Peña, so everyone was doing me favors, even bringing me breakfast and then asking me about Eleanora Peña. ”
Having said that, Dulcina Calvo dropped her little face in some dismay and said, somewhat dejectedly, “I thought it was because I was charming that I attracted so many male students, but it turned out that they were all using me as a springboard.”
Esteban Zaragosa looked at her exposed white collar and wanted to kiss it.
Instead, he ended up pulling the black cashmere scarf from his own neck and wrapped it around Dulcina Calvo’s neck.
“It’s so hot.” Dulcina Calvo sighed.
Esteban Zaragosa had turned her into a small ball of dough, with her small, round, palm-sized face almost half closed, revealing only a pair of large, dark, luminous eyes.
“I should be glad those people don’t have an eye.”
Dulcina Calvo’s ears were covered by the handkerchief and Esteban Zaragosa’s voice was not too loud when he said this, so Dulcina Calvo did not hear, “Huh?”
Esteban Zaragosa just gazed at her with a deep look, wrapping his arms around the soft, slender waist of the girl in front of him and welcoming her to his chest as he said in a deep voice, “From now on, you can only attract me to a man.”
Dulcina Calvo’s little face turned red.
She was eager to tell Esteban Zaragosa that she was no beauty to attract the opposite sex.
Her ebony eyes rolled for quite a while before she finally plucked up the courage to look directly at him and ask, “Am I now considered your girlfriend?”
For Esteban Zaragosa, there was a serious error of logic in the question posed by Dulcina Calvo.
What does it mean to be considered, yes is yes, no is no, there is no ambiguity in relations with Esteban Zaragosa.
The man leaned over, his eyes fixed on her small face, and said a serious and very grave word: “Yes.”
“So, … are we already a couple of sorts?”. Dulcina Calvo bluntly threw out a second question.
Esteban Zaragosa felt very uncomfortable answering such stupid questions, but since the girl was so insecure, he didn’t mind answering her clearly to give her his opinion.
“Yes, all my time today, it’s all yours.”
Dulcina Calvo let out a huge sigh of relief and, at the same time, sweetness and emotion leapt into her heart.
A sweetness that I had never had with Lázaro Morejón.
Because when I was in love with Lázaro Morejón … it was more of a desire than a crush.
Being in love was a matter of two, but when she was with Lázaro Morejón, she had never been affirmed in her identity by Lázaro Morejón, and Lázaro Morejón had never recognized her as decisively as Esteban Zaragosa.
Dulcina Calvo stood on tiptoe, wrapped her small arms around his neck, craned her neck to give him a quick sloppy kiss on the lips and said, “I still don’t know if I like you, but don’t worry, you’ve been very good to me, I’ll try to like you and I’ll try to be with you!”
“…”
Esteban Zaragosa was not only disgusted to hear this, but it made him a little helpless to laugh.
When had he ever chased a woman backwards? Or a woman he might not have liked for a while?
Esteban Zaragosa questioned, “If someone else was so nice to you today, would you try to like them and try to be with them too?”
“…”
Seeing her frozen for several seconds without being able to give an answer, Esteban Zaragosa became inwardly angry.
But then he looked into the innocent eyes and overwhelmed expression of the girl in front of him, Esteban Zaragosa felt only a little helplessness.
How could he have fallen in love with such a small log?
Esteban Zaragosa kept walking and Dulcina Calvo followed him, biting her tongue for quite a while before muttering, “How should I know what, I am not Eleanora Peña, I am courted by so many people every day, and I am not going to say no to someone who is kind to me, who takes the initiative and who is so nice. …”
The corners of Esteban Zaragosa’s mouth twitched.
This girl was clearly flattering him, but why was he half-happy?
Esteban Zaragosa pulled her and asked, “What if I like Eleanora Peña too?”.
“No!” Dulcina Calvo flatly refused.
