"When he entered the place many heads turned towards him, apparently he did not show any discomfort, he just followed indifferently to the front of the counter where the attendant received him with an indifferent smile just not to be rude and end up receiving negative feedback on his service." "- Are you okay, Mr. Black? - He looked at me, perhaps now noticing my presence, just nodded, and turned his attention to the artist who was spending his hand unsticking something invisible on it." "- I think your friend is the one who needs help. - He finally spoke up." However, that was not even half of his personality, the man who is in my kitchen now is not half of everything he just appears to be, Ethan has the kindest heart I know, I watched him dry his hand with the dishwashing cloth and walk towards me smiled gently before stopping in front of me and resting his arms on either side of my body on the sofa. - Would you like anything else? - He asked as he stared at me, I smiled at the m

At dawn when I realized that Ayanna was already asleep, I decided to put her to bed, even though that position in which the woman was in my arms was really comfortable, but I knew that if we stayed there, she would wake up totally sore, and it would also not be comfortable for both of us, I got up from the couch taking care not to wake her, as soon as I managed to get out I put the woman on her stomach since it would be easier for me to pick her up, I reached for the control on the coffee table and turned off the television, so I could finally lift her body, I walked calmly to the room so as not to make sudden movements, as soon as I arrived in the room I saw Akira lying on the bed lazily the same way the woman had left him. "What do I do with you? You only know how to eat and sleep. I continued walking towards the bed, but I turned around to be able to put his body in the correct position, I deposited it on the bed with great care, I arranged his head on the pillow, I walked to where

After I knew that woman in front of me was my mother I was mute for a while, I felt suffocated, I didn't know how to react to that, not even what to say or what to think. "What did she want with my uncle? Was she after me? Or could she not even recognize her own son, was it that difficult? Was I so unrecognizable that he couldn't even remember my face? How? Why? What was I supposed to do? There were so many unanswered questions that my mind became foggy, I thought I was free, that I wouldn't be afraid of her anymore, but no when I recognized her here in front of me I feared, I feared for my life." "What if she is after revenge? What should I do? I started to feel lost, I know I'm a grown man now and as much as she did all that to me, I couldn't fight back, I'm clearly a stronger man now, but it could hurt me if we got into a fight." "- Very well, sir? - The woman's voice woke me up." "- Dylan, my name is Dylan. - I lied in an act of desperation." "- Right, Mr. Dylan, how are you h

I heard Ethan's voice giving me goosebumps from the seductive tone he had used, he looked so beautiful like that, it didn't make me want to leave the house that morning. - Do you know how to do hair? - I asked. - 'Sort of, I did it a few times on Megan when she asked. - He smiled, leaning against the door and walking towards me. - Then help me untangle it. - I took my comb and handed it to him, he took the brush and started to detangle strand by strand, taking care not to pull. - It seems you know how to do this very well. - I said impressed, he didn't pull my hair at all. - Your hair is easy to comb, not to mention that it wasn't even that tangled, how do you want me to fix it? - He asked, handing me the hairbrush. - You can do whatever you know. - I gave him freedom, while I felt Ethan's fingers playing with my hair. - I'm done. - Ethan told me to put my hand in the hairdo, it was a simple hairstyle of tying half the hair on top of my head and the rest loose, I liked it, I tur

When we arrived at the studio the man tried his best to smile when we said goodbye, but it was only in vain, I saw him leave, continuing on his way lost in thought, I wanted to do something, I wanted to be able to help relieve what was happening inside his head, but I couldn't, because he didn't even leave a space that would allow me to enter. - Ayanne? - I heard Draven's voice after I heard the door being opened behind me. - AHN? - I turned to look at the man, who was wearing an almost all white outfit except for the pastel blue color of his shirt. - Why are you standing there? Did something happen? - He asked as he looked at me and seemed worried. - Oh no, nothing, I was just looking at the street. - I smiled politely. - 'Yeah, sure, let's go inside, it's cold out there. - He opened the door, I looked at the path Ethan had taken, but I couldn't see him, but I just sighed and went in past the man. - 'Would you like something hot to drink? It's a pretty cold day today. - The man

When I finally arrived at the end of the day I was extremely tired, since I had arrived in a part with many details I could not make sudden movements or weigh my hand so all that excessive care was very tiring, but that's okay we can't do a good job without effort is the least. - Aya? - The woman's voice woke me up, I turned to look at her while removing the headphones that were already off. - "Yes?" - I raised my eyebrow as I waited for what the woman wanted to say. - "Did you bring an umbrella? - I looked at the closed window of the studio, not even realizing it was raining. - Oh no, I forgot. - The last time I walked with an umbrella I got soaked anyway, maybe I should buy a bigger one. - And how are you going to leave? Is that man coming to pick you up? - She asked, looking at the door, noticing that Ethan wasn't outside. - 'I still have things to do, I asked him not to come if he's busy too. - The truth is that Ethan hadn't spoken to me all day, I didn't know what he was doi

- The door... - I stopped as soon as I saw the woman from earlier standing at my door with a calm smile, which gave me a lot of goosebumps. - "Hello, my name is Laura Black, I'm Ethan's mother, nice to meet you. - I didn't know how to react, I was silent for a few seconds without knowing what to answer. "What do I do? Is she really his mom? I should be nice, right? After all, Ethan is my boyfriend, I should get along with his mother. I didn't really know what to do, so I forced a smile." - O-hello, I'm Ayanne, nice to meet you too. - I tried to be nice, even though I was scared to death. - We couldn't introduce ourselves earlier, sorry my son, he has a temper and I try. - He smiled as he took a few steps inside, inviting himself in. - You must be his girlfriend, right? Very pretty, is this your house? Do you live alone? - The woman spoke as she looked around, I looked outside quickly but didn't see Ethan anywhere and the lights in his house were on, so maybe he was changing or get

- 'But darling... I'm asking you to forgive me, you know I didn't mean it. - Laura's voice sounded extremely upset and hurt. - If you want forgiveness, okay, I forgive you. - Ethan lowered his voice, but his tone was still sarcastic, and for a few seconds a great silence formed. 'Forgiven for what? My God, what did that woman do to him!"? It was eating me up with anxiety and curiosity, but it wasn't even time to ask questions, let alone pry." - Do you... forgive me? - The woman repeated as if surprised. - 'Yes, that's not what you wanted, so I forgive you. - Even as he said it he could still feel his body stiffen, even if he was saying it, it wasn't really from the heart. - 'Oh my love, thank you so much, I swear I'll be a good mother to you! - The woman said excitedly, but I don't know what she did next, she probably advanced on Ethan, because he retreated, making me retreat together. - Great, perfect, now go back to your house. - The man cut off whatever she was thinking of doi

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
