Clara, now feeling a bit flirtatious due to Mateo's teasing, noticed that he had left. She found herself alone and realized Mateo, who was still injured, had gone down. Clara arrived at the adobe house, seeing Mateo starting the fire. She hurriedly approached, took the flint from his hand, and anxiously said, "Quick, go back and rest! I'll handle this myself."

Mateo didn't leave; he stood on the side, watching Clara start the fire. The dim light illuminated both of them. Unable to resist, Mateo approached Clara.
