explain that she knew him. When Carolina was going to call Tess, she stopped with her hand on the phone looking at it, undecided if she wanted to go on with the call, remembering that Tess sent her picture to JP as well.
Oh gosh...what would he think of me? - Shuddering at the thought. Carolina couldn’t allow all this to become a huge confusion, she just couldn’t. While she was trying to gain the strength to call Tess and talk with her about JP, she was thinking what would JP been thinking right now, now that he knows that the woman behind the profile he liked as well is Carolina.
Would he now be interested in me?
Would I still have a chance with him?
Does he want to meet with me again?
She hoped so, her hopes were renewed for a mere moments. She tried to convince herself that there is no hope, because the reality so far was that he wasn’t interested in her, he didn’t want to see her, he was living his life happily without her, and so there was no hope. She finally reaches with her long fingers for the phone buttons and search for Tess number:
"Tess is Carolina, I received your email with the picture, I wanted to thank you kindly, that you had to make an exception for me, but it turns out I know him already, we are not really the best friends, but I know previously that I am not the type of woman he wants in his life. I need to thank you once again for all the effort and all the work you put on all this, but I'm not interested going out on a date and having dinner with him."
"Are you serious?!"
Tess could barely articulate one word because she couldn’t believe what she was hearing.
"Such thing never happened to me in my professional life. I don’t know what to say right now. But it's alright. Tell me, something happened between you two? Are you friends? Is there something I need to know?"
Tess asked with the curiosity of a professional matchmaker, she needed to know what’s going on there, she felt there was more into it and she would go to the bottom of it. Carolina knew that Tess wouldn’t leave her alone until she got the whole story out, Carolina felt the curiosity coming out of each Tess pore, she could hear in Tess voice. Therefore Carolina tried to say as natural as possible on the phone:
"We met a while ago and we realized that we had nothing in common"
She was hoping Tess wouldn’t ask more questions for now, she just couldn’t handle it right now, it was too much for her, she thought that JP was in her past already, and now he returned to hunt her mind like a prayer again, it wasn’t fair.
"I see"
Said Tess, but Carolina knew she wasn’t convinced and this wouldn’t end here.
Tess continued:
"Bloody hell...I was convinced that you were really made for each other, well I have to go, talk to you later"
Tess hung up.
There, damaged is under control, it was easy, hmmm too easy to convince a woman like Tess. - Carolina was expecting not to be disturbed with this issue again, but knowing what moved Tess, she was certain that she would come back with the same subject to discuss it further. Hopping that she could recover from all what was happening before Tess strikes again with questions. Sighing when she hung up, leaning the chair back, she fixed her eyes on the ceiling trying to relax for a little bit. She needed to get back to work again, there was lots of decisions that she needed to read with attention first to give her approval, but her thoughts ran again for that unusual situation, if she had not received the photo, and had gone to the date for a romantic dinner to meet Mr Marvellous, it would be pretty nasty find out is was JP at the restaurant.
JP didn’t know that she was looking for a life partner, because they had only talked about sex and that what they focused on because there would be no more than it would have been. She tried very hard to get back to work, the rest of the day she took work into hands not allowing her getting distracted with her personal issues.
