MARIANELLA

2 months later

Things were going well, too well to be true.

My studio is at the end of its renovation, there was a lot to do, and since the day I signed the contract and took the keys, Roman pushed me in the direction of an architect, the same one who took care of the renovation of his apartment, and soon after that he dismissed me from the company, this last part was not so easy to accept.

In a way I miss working there, I spent a lot of time there, but the truth is that I really miss seeing him every day, being there for him.

To say that our relationship has evolved a lot is an understatement, I am practically living in his penthouse, we spend all the time when he is not at the company together, so I refused to think that this was an arrangement yet, at some point it became something more for both of us.

He has taken care of everything for me, it is even annoying the way he sticks his snobbish nose into my needs and makes them his own, even if that need is a pot of ice cre

    MARIANELLAA week later, I was a heap, literally running out of time, dividing myself between organizing the opening of the atelier and having enough dress models to do so, Winter has been working hard with me, but today in particular I have noticed something in her that is not just tiredness.There is definitely something wrong, she is very scattered and constantly grumbling in the corners when she sticks her finger on a pin, which she doesn't normally do, she is as careful about this as I am.Even more so, in fact.I am positioning the last pins with the lace through the dresses, when I am interrupted by my vibrating tablet, I groan when I see my mother's name on the screen, that's all I needed.I ask Winter if it's okay to answer it in front of her, she just confirms with her head and goes back to concentrating on her dress, I turn the table around and slide my finger over the screen to answer it.“ Hola cariño “ mamá greets with a joy that I am unable to reciprocate.“ Hola mamá “

    MARIANELLAI wake up with the feeling that something is still very wrong, a silly and meaningless feeling, but powerful enough to make me roll from side to side in bed without any desire to get up.Today is a day off, we had finished everything for the opening, so we could have the luxury of a day on his penthouse, I asked Roman to spend the day here with Winter and his son Cole, he didn't mind one bit, if anything he encouraged me to use the space the way I wanted to since he was packed with appointments.I still miss being a part of it, being the person he relies on for everything, I know Milles has done a great job from what Roman tells me, but until a while ago this was the only life I knew, I am happy with my new phase, but I can't help but miss how things were before.Everything has changed so drastically fast, I still feel scared about it, I can hardly believe it, I am in a relationship, or at least it feels like one, and about to open my own business, what are the chances of t

    MARIANELLAMy life plays like a movie in my head right now, I have no idea why, but it must have something to do with the way I am shaking when I pick up the cell phone, and slide my finger to answer the call.My mother's voice is a thin cry, I can feel it as if she is beside me, my heart is crushing in my chest, I am very afraid of what she is going to say now, I don't know if I can take it.“ Mamá, what happened? “ I swallow as I ask, I do so with much hesitation.“ Your papa cariño “ she cries strangled and I fall to my knees on the floor with it “ He suffered a heart attack this morning, he is in the hospital, he gave a terrifying scream while I was in the kitchen, I am so scared baby”.I cry, unable to pay attention to the phone, I grab the towel and cry out everything I've been holding on to all these days, the world has become cloudy around me, a dark gray that envelops me like a fog of chaos.I don't know what happened to my cell phone but it has slipped out of my hands, my vi

    ROMANI made a fucked up mistake.One that I swore I would never make, that I thought I was above it all, when logically I have my head up my ass, is the only explanation.I knew something was wrong when Marianella still works here, Milles eventually told me by chance, that she was suspecting that someone in here was actively working on screwing her, so we began to follow in her footsteps, which led us to Karen, and coincidentally led us to someone who shouldn't have been surprised.Mikhelly.Of course she was the one behind all those ridiculous things that were exposed about Marianella, what really surprised me was that Karen believed she could get away with it, which quickly changed when I found the two of them in that restaurant.I will make sure that both of their lives are ruined until their last days, so my first reaction when I managed to gather enough evidence was to drag Mikhelly out of that restaurant to the house of the one who protected her most, my mother.This time I mad

    MARIANELLAI didn't sleep a wink tonight, I don't know if it was the presence of the man next to me, but my discomfort prevented any remnants of sleep I had during the day, so I moved from side to side as if there were fleas in the bed biting me from every angle.Roman is passed out on the bed, so I crawl out of his deep sleep and leave the room to do something, walk on tiptoe so as not to wake him, and close the door very gently.I stand in the kitchen wondering what to do, staring at the cupboards for a long time and hoping that magically something I want will appear, but it doesn't, however something else moves behind me and when I turn around, Mamá is standing staring at me.“ Por Dios mamá, you almost scared me to death," I accuse, putting my hand on my chest”.“ I couldn't sleep, so I heard a noise and decided to check it out," she shrugged, moving around the stove, "Are you sleep deprived too?”“ I can't sleep at all, my head is a heap," I explain, receiving a brotherly look fr
