Sometimes It Is Not Easy...

It was a cold afternoon and Tara invited Jane because they haven't met since Christmas.

Tara brought Jane a cup of hot red fruit tea. They sit down in the living room and began to talk about the holidays.

Tara: Now it is time to tell you something important. I didn't want it by phone... So... On New Year's Eve... Colin asked me to marry.
Jane: Oh, Tara!! What did you answer??
Tara: Well... I said yes! Of course yes!!


Jane: Tara! I am so happy for you! Congratulation!!
Tara: Thank you my dear!

Jane: The best news I could imagine! But I feel something different, too. Aren't you the happiest person in the world now? What's wrong?


Tara: Well, I am afraid a little bit.
Jane: Afraid of what? Colin? The marriage? The wedding? Life together?
Tara: Oh no, never. I am happy, really, this is what I want. But...
Jane: Yes?
Tara: I am afraid of what his family will think about us.

Jane: You were together at Christmas, weren't you? How was it?
Tara: His father, Robert was really kind. His younger sister is a sweet girl I think although we couldn't speak a lot. But his mother... Victoria was polite but nothing more. Sometimes I felt she was nervous and looked at me so oddly... She was so cold. I don't know why.
Jane: That is strange. Maybe she have just realised that her son is never more her little child... Maybe it is just a bit jealousy...
Tara: I don't know, Jane... As if she had some problem with me and not with the situation...

Tara couldn't finish because Summer came in suddenly.
Summer: Tara, I am... Oh, hello, Jane!
Jane: Hello Summer!
Tara: Hello, Sum! What is the matter?

Summer: Er... Nothing. I am just going to the market and would like to ask if I can buy something for you...
Tara: No, thanks. But why don't you stay for a while?
Summer: No, thanks. I am in a hurry.

Summer: See you later!
Jane: Bye!
Tara: Oh...

Jane: What was that? Tara, is Summer okay?
Tara: I don't think so...
Jane: Is it because I am here?

Tara: Exactly, I am afraid...
Jane: Please, tell me.
Tara: Jane, I don't want to hurt you. I hope I won't if I tell you something.
Jane: Is it the day of surprises? Tell me, it won't hurt.
Tara: I think Summer felt in love with Mark.

Jane: With Mark? My ex-husband?
Tara: Yes. They met at Christmas, on a concert.
Jane: Well, that isn't so bad news...
Tara: But I think Summer is very sad. She saw him with another girl...

Jane: Okay, it is his life. I am with Charles, and after two years it is time to find himself a new girlfriend. I would be really happy to hear that he is happy, too!
Tara: Oh, I calmed down now. But Summer didn't...
Jane: I am so sorry for her. Mark is a very handsome man... I understand her feelings. I just don't know why Mark didn't told me that...

Jane: And don't be afraid, Colin's mother will be very happy and proud of you on the wedding!
Tara: Thanks for your words!
Jane: Now I have to go but please come tomorrow to talk about your plans for the wedding day!

On the way home Jane was thinking about Summer and Mark, until...

 
Jane: Oh, no! I can't believe it! There, this is Mark and a girl!

Jane: They are heading to the market... Poor Summer, I hope they won't meet.

Jane: She is so familiar...

Jane: I didn't remember...

Jane: It is better to go home, as quickly as I can. Maybe Mark will tell me something if it gets more serious.

So here they are: Mark and a blonde girl... Do You remember who she is and why so familiar to Jane? ;)

  3. Congrats to Tara. Hopefully she can be at peace with his mother. Those can be touch situations. Poor Summer. Nothing like falling for a guy who is still dating other women.

    1. :) Well, this stranger is my 'Barbie as an architect' doll (http://lifeinrosemaryhill.blogspot.hu/2013/07/barbie-as-architect.html), and she played the role of a waitress in The Blue Owl, where Jane and Charles had their first date last September :))) Here she is: http://lifeinrosemaryhill.blogspot.hu/2013/09/friday-night-part-two.html
      So that is why was she so familiar to Jane... :D

  6. Hajrá, hajrá! Remélem, Summer szerelme nem marad viszonzatlan! A hölgy nem véletlen egy építész Barbie ? ;)

    1. Igen, igen, eltaláltad!!! :) És elárulom, azért volt olyan ismerős Jane-nek, mert ő volt a pincérnő a Kék Bagolyban, ahol Jane és Charles először randiztak :)))

      Summer-rel egy kicsit gondban leszek, úgy érzem... Vajon mennyire komolyak az érzései? És Marknak a pincérnő iránt? És mi lesz a pincérnővel??? :D No, majd meglátjuk, mi sül ki ebből... :)
