You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

Clarissa didn’t give a damn about the look Yvonne had on her face or even how much Yvonne hated her guts. She merely put her phone away and left the lounge without a word.

She heard a hysterical, piercing screech from behind her the moment she left, followed by plenty of cursing.

As Clarissa paused briefly, Gina asked, “Do I need to shut them up for you?”

Clarissa smiled at Gina’s impassive face. “You’re adorable.”

Gina raised an eyebrow.

“I don’t think that word suits me, ma’am.”

Clarissa merely chuckled. “Well, you’re just unaware of how cute you are. Either way, you’re adorable.”

As the pair made their way out, they suddenly encountered a familiar face who they were least expecting to see in a place like this.

“Mimi!”

Clarissa observed how Mimi was hugged by a man. She was also surrounded by plenty of other people presumably acquaintances, or friends of hers. Clarissa then frowned as she walked towards the group.

When Mimi finally noticed Clarissa, a hint of guilt flashed in her eyes. She smiled and greeted the other woman. “Clare! Fancy seeing you here!”

Clarissa snorted coldly. “Fancy seeing you here as well. Dare I ask what you’re doing in a place like this?”

“Oh, is that Mimi’s rich sister? You’re so beautiful!”

The girl next to Mimi was aware that Mimi had a very affluent sister. She had reached that conclusion when she spied Mimi being dropped off at acting boot camp in a luxury car. However, she had not expected Clarissa to be this beautiful in person.

Initially, everyone else had brushed Mimi off, thinking she was making up stories. As it turned out, she was telling the truth after all.

“Wow, Mimi! Your sister looks lovely!” With a grin at Clarissa, the girl continued. “We’re all Mimi’s friends! Why don’t you hang out with us?”

The words of affirmation immediately boosted Mimi’s ego. She hurriedly walked over to Clarissa and held her hand as if the two were the closest of friends.

“A few of my friends wanted to hang out. If I didn’t say yes, then it would seem quite stand-offish, no? Why don’t you join us too? I’m assuming that’s why you’re here.”

Clarissa immediately yanked her arm away and glared at Mimi. She was not going to entertain such a shameless display.

“I put together your tuition fees, dear. Do you think you’ll be admitted to the film academy by gallivanting like this? Will you make it big and pay me back later?”

Mimi’s expression darkened in the light of Clarissa’s ridicule.

She lowered her voice and hissed. “I only came out this one time, and you happened to run into me. Is that really a problem? I’ve been working my a** off getting to classes on time, mind you. Cut me some slack.”

“You’d better be.”
