Appearances can be Deceptive Chapter 70
I don't know how long it took me to get out of the bathroom, in fact, I didn't even want to get out of there, but I remembered that Ethan might be waiting for me, might be worried, and I couldn't make his life any harder than I already was, I finished putting on the clothes he'd lent me and as soon as I picked up mine from the bathroom floor, I opened the door and went out, maybe I hadn't really noticed, but that seemed to be his room, It wasn't a simple guest room, I realized I couldn't delay, but that being the case, I walked to the room's exit and opened the door, as soon as I did I was surprised, Ethan was sitting on the floor against the wall while holding Akira in his arms who was sleeping very peacefully, and his owner seemed to have followed the example, since he didn't open his eyes when I opened the door, I bent down beside him not knowing whether or not to wake him up. Looking at him with such a serene expression on his face while he slept was something surreal, his eyebrow

"- What did I notice? - I asked, completely confused." "- Ethan, you've noticed the kind of person he is. - Yes, that's all I was sure about in that whole story, my neighbor was not someone who was easily annoyed." "I may not know about his history or how he acquired those scars or who made them, but I was sure, that man had suffered at some point in his life, and from that moment on the man understood that the other external things are only fleeting in his life." "- I think I know more or less. - I answered, still thoughtfully." "For those who had known him longer it was easy to know what kind of person the other is, but honestly I lived in families with great appearances, but that left a mark on me in the end." "- Rest assured, in time you will understand him completely as if you have known him for years. - Flora tried to calm me down." "- It's okay. - I replied, shifting my gaze to the house on the other side, completely dark without a single beam of light in any of the front

Hate, hate was exactly the word that best defined the feeling she was feeling that dawn, she really, really wanted to kill that man, that bastard, how was he able to do that to her, if the cops hadn't arrived for sure she would have killed that guy, she wouldn't stop until she opened a hole in his face, she should, she should have done, she should have castrated him. "That bastard, son of a bitch, fucking bastard! Just thinking what he could have done to her, my body felt like it was burning, like fire ants were on me." "God! If only I hadn't arrived in time! Even though we left your house, I still couldn't calm down, the time I waited outside my bedroom door was the only time I had ever nailed my eyes shut." But now seeing her lying on the couch curled up, so fragile, her body so small and delicate, I still can't believe that someone would have the courage to do this to her, I approached the couch where she was lying, the woman was hugging her puppy who was also sleeping peacefully

"- Hey! Ayanne, listen to me, okay? Look at me, please! - I didn't know if she was really listening to me, but every time I heard his crying he seemed but desperate and distressed, it was impossible not to want to do something to help." "- Please look at me, let me see your face, please! - She wouldn't answer I pleaded feeling my voice become choked, and my throat choked, that would be the first time I would cry since I left my parent's house, I would cry for her, and I would have no shame in doing so, even if I had to go back to my despair I would take her out of hers." When she lifted her head my eyes were already overflowing, there was no escape, I grabbed her tighter and sank my face into her neck feeling her perfume, I didn't mind getting her shoulders wet, and I believe she didn't either. When I lifted my face and saw hers illuminated by the evening light, I was feeling more relieved, my body was trembling, but my heart no longer palpitated with pain. "- I'm here! It's all rig

After I finished putting everything in its place and cleaning up, I locked the door of Ayanne's house as best as I could, as soon as I was sure that the stores were already open I would ask them to bring three doors and of course new locks, there wasn't much I could do with that one, it was a total loss, it already needed to be changed, because it still had the bear marks on it, but now they should definitely be ripped off. Before going back to my house I had picked up one of her clothes for her, of course just the normal clothes, I wouldn't do anything else besides that, I know it could leave the woman in a difficult situation after all nobody wants a stranger touching their underwear, I also put feminine products like shampoo and conditioner, those things that women use, that have a pot for each thing, I had found her cell phone in the bathroom while cleaning, so I took the charger and put it in a bag, I took some hair products, I know we would need to go downtown to file a report,

- Yes, right away. - I answered without any interest in him, after all, I wanted him dead if it were possible. - Take care of her, Ethan, don't let her be alone for a second. - It was obvious, even if the woman hadn't spoken, that I was taking care of her with my own life. - Don't worry, I won't leave her alone. - I replied as I looked up the stairs, having in mind her image on my bed, so helpless. - When will you be back? - I remembered what the doctor had said. - Maybe in the afternoon, the day has just dawned, and the doctor hasn't come to check on her yet. - She explained. - All right, let me know, I'll pick you up. - I informed, going back to what I had planned. - No need, I'll call that gentleman. - He warned, but I knew that she just didn't want to bother. - Don't worry, I'll be there anyway. - I didn't want to leave any room for her to refuse. - I want you to stay with her, you may as well visit us at home later, and without, but take care of her, bye. - That was the la

Ayanne lifted her arm and touched my face lightly with her hand, her touch was so soft, on my rough skin, I felt the need to pull away, I didn't want my face to hurt her hand, but at the same time, I wanted to stay there with that touch, it was like silk touching a piece of wood bark, I looked wide-eyed at the woman who smiled graciously, my heart was racing so fast it could be heard as knocks on the door deep in my ears, I unconsciously let out air through my mouth when she lightly caressed my cheek. - You should get some sleep, you can't lie to me. - Ayanne smiled, and for a moment my heart skipped a beat. - No... You need not worry about me, I'm fine, I need to... make breakfast yet. - I wish I hadn't shown that I was nervous, but I think it was almost impossible when I felt the warmth of her touch. - But you have already done so much for me, I can do this for you. - The woman had a bright smile on her face, and it almost made me forget that I had to take her to the police statio

Inside the car we couldn't hear anything but the sound of her breathing, she looked to the sides in alert even though she was in a closed place like this, and especially to the taxi driver, the more she looked, the closer she got to my body, she was aware that not all men were bad, but she couldn't help feeling afraid, I understand her, really, in my first months here, it was very difficult for me to adapt to living with many people, especially around, when I was alone with my uncle it was one thing, but when there were other people around, I couldn't help but be afraid, because I knew in my mind that someone there could do the same thing that that man or my mother did, especially since they were of a similar age to them. When we arrived and got out of the car her grip on my arm made me pull away from her and wrap her in my arms, I hugged her as tight as I could, but not to hurt her. - Everything will be fine, I'm here, don't worry. - I really wanted to stop saying those words, mainly

Flora had said that Ethan would fall in love with me again, but at that moment, I was the one who had fallen in love for the second time. My heart was so warmed by her words that I didn't even notice when the priest was speaking, I could only hear him when he said it. - Please, the rings. - I didn't know who had given them to me, but when I looked across the yard and saw Akira walking in with a bow tie and a little basket in his mouth, my heart melted. He was coming towards us so calmly and elegantly that he didn't even look like a wiggling ball of fur. - You taught him that? - I looked incredulously at the man next to me, who smiled and shook his head. - That was our secret. - When the puppy arrived, Ethan signaled with his finger that he would automatically sit down without letting go of the mini basket. - Good boy! - Ethan stroked his head and I bent down to do the same while he picked up the basket. - Good boy! Akira! As soon as we had the rings in hand, we turned to each othe

In the past, for me life was just life, confusing right, I'll explain it better, for me life was just existing, not really having a meaning, something to believe in, people to care for and smile with, to cry with or just love, for me life was just a life, it had no shape and was colorless, I used paint to give color to a beautiful picture, but nothing painted my own life. Now it's different, my life has a meaning, and I discovered that as well as loving Ethan I could love a profession, which was to be a teacher, but to be specific a drawing teacher, and my first student was finally Megan, who was always happy in my classes, she was going to start studying next year, and she was so excited.Flora too, now she had more time to herself and could take care of herself a lot more, she had time to herself, and you know that day Draven didn't lie, it was true that Liliana wanted to buy my painting, days later she called me, she said it took her a while to find my number, but she got it from K

I remember as if it were yesterday, when we returned home that frightening night, I had a surprise that hurt my heart to know that I had lost, Ethan's house was impeccably clean, and the table was set like a romantic dinner, but when I learned that the pasta he had made was bad because it hadn't been taken out of the water he felt disappointed, and my heart broke seeing him in that state, I remember holding his face and looking deeply into his eyes, if that dinner was important to Ethan then we would make it happen.- Let's have dinner, what you've done, and I'll thank you with all my heart for it, what matters is that we're together Ethan Black. - I kissed his lips in the process, and when I pulled away I looked into his eyes again, looking for some sign of comfort.- But this dinner was for me to give him something important. - His eyebrows were still down and his gaze was on the floor.- So give it to me now, I can't wait, and I don't want to wait, but for this surprise. - I let go

The more time passed, the more anxious I felt, Akira was lying with his head on my legs while I stroked his head, I was sitting on the floor, looking where the headlights of the cars could illuminate, that's where Draven's car was parked, no sign of them and the people who were here I was told were paramedics for a possible serious injury, which terrified me, if they were there it was a sign that Ethan could get badly hurt, I didn't understand much about hospitals, health people or the police, only that Ethan talked about home, but he forgot to say about this part of people who ride in cars to help the injured. - Ma'am, please treat your injuries. - A woman in a similar police outfit with red symbols said the same thing for the fifth time, I shook my head again for the fifth time refusing, I wasn't hurt, I didn't feel anything, they needed to save things for Ethan if he needed them, which I hoped wouldn't happen.- Sir, we found them, over. - A muffled voice was heard, I looked aroun

I was ready to accept my death, or at least be in a coma, or all broken up, but nothing, absolutely none of that happened, I had my eyes closed when I felt my body hit something, and a familiar smell and the sound of loud breathing took over my senses, When I opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was the surrounding darkness, then the white silhouette of Draven in the window I had just jumped out of, and finally Ethan's face, his eyes were pure terror and relief, he was holding me tightly, he looked afraid that he was going to lose me at any moment, and to be honest, I didn't think I would ever see him again.- Ethan? - My voice came out as a choked grunt, I still couldn't believe I was with him.- Thank God I was able to get there in time. - The tension in his voice was so worrying to hear, as if he was totally out of breath, like drowning. Without much to think about, I hugged his neck tightly, feeling our hearts racing in one rhythm.- It was Draven! He said that one of the people

I felt someone's arms around my waist, and it felt like gravity was wrong, my belly was pressed under a thin place like the banister of a staircase, it was strange, I never felt like this, my body moved as if it was upside down. Strangely I smelled an unpleasant smell like a very musty place, a suffocating smell, I felt my consciousness return little by little, I opened my eyes seeing something white still a little blurry, but a familiar smell invaded my memory it was the smell of Draven, his strong perfume was memorable, because it was very strong.- W-what? - I still hadn't understood where or what I was doing, it was dark, but there seemed to be light somewhere in the direction I was looking.- O-where am I? - I tried to move, but I felt the grip on my waist, but strong.- Calm down, honey, it's okay, but if you keep moving like that you'll fall. - Was Draven crazy? - What are you talking about? - I tried to hold on to his shirt.- My love, have you forgotten our appointment? - He

I tried not to feel anxious as I watched the noodles cook, it was already getting dark, and nothing of her arriving, I felt lost without knowing what I should do, on the one hand I wanted to run from here now and look for her and on the other I believed that she was just celebrating with her friends and if I suddenly appeared in front of her I would look like a bossy boyfriend, but I was afraid that something bad was happening, I felt it in my chest, it was like I was underwater holding my breath to my limit, I didn't trust that man around Ayanne, not because I trusted her, I knew our relationship was precious to both of us, but Draven is a two-faced man.It's easy to be fooled by him, I've seen many women in that car, a pretty face, but everyone in this city knows he's a womanizer, they just don't care much, after all he's rich, money buys people, afraid he decides to go back to his cell phone.*If you need me, I'm here, if you're celebrating with your friends I can pick you up, but

I had been with this idea for a few days, I had put this desire in my heart, and I couldn't wait a second longer, and it would be on a perfect day, because I knew that Aya would win that contest of the paintings she was participating in, she had been talking about it for so long and when I saw her painting yesterday I was sure, it was incredible it seemed so real that I could feel the softness of the feathers in my hand, there was no way she wouldn't win.When I woke up I ran my hand over the bed looking for the woman next to me, but nothing, I opened my eyes, but nothing, she was not in the room, I scratched my eyes, and then I got up, without much to do, I made the bed and walked to the bathroom it seems that today she had decided to get up, but early, maybe she was very anxious, it would be understandable if she was, after using the bathroom I walked to the stairs, finally smelling the smell of pancakes that came from downstairs.And there she was, focused on not burning her breakf

It was like a dream being realized, Liliana was looking at me intently as if unlocking a memory, but I hoped not, because it would only show me that the woman before me was an equal, maybe I wouldn't win this competition, maybe I wouldn't be able to fulfill what I promised to Benny and Susan, but at least half of that dream and promise was being fulfilled before me at that very moment, when I finished my presentation, there was a minute of complete silence as if everyone was absorbing everything they had just heard.- It is really a difficult decision to make, all the paintings are unique and with distinct feelings, I would like to take them all. - Mr. Leonard was really dazzled by it all, he looked like a child looking at a candy stall, but he had his favorites, every child does, that's a fact.- Good father, let's not put this off any longer, just tell us which one you identified with the most. - Liliana hugged her father's arm as she looked at him in the corner.- Right, my daughte
