Next morning

It was a beautiful sunny day, as well as being my day off. Living just a few meters from the beach, the best I could do was go there and feel my feet in the sand. So, Thomas and I are on the beach, under an umbrella, looking at the sea waves. It was relaxing to feel the breeze on your skin, along with the smell of the sea, making it a paradise.

“I just love this beach... “Thomas sighed with a smile.

“I had never been here before and I have to say it is beautiful!

Two boys ran in front of us, which made Thomas smile sideways.

“I like the landscape better,” she commented, biting her lip.

I laughed and had to agree. I loved my friend's spontaneous and fun way. Thomas was the type of woman who spoke her mind without shame and was very fearless, unlike me who was always quiet in my corner. In fact, I was always focused on my work. Being a wedding event organizer required professionalism and perfection. Someone's dreams were in your hands.

“Thomas...

We both looked to the side

    Jackson “What the fuck! “ I cursed in frustration, being in the room, while I felt the moisture between the legs of the woman who was with me in bed. Claire, a colorful friend of mine, who had sex from time to time, as neither of us wanted a serious commitment to each other. So we had an agreement between us that we would be friends with benefes. Personally I am bisexual, I like women and men. I had many girlfriends and boyfriends, because I don´t care if you are woman or man, if I like you, I will date you. Simple as that. " Who will be? “she groaned in frustration. I thought about continuing, but the doorbell insisted and I ended up giving up, giving her a light kiss and moving away from her. “It must be Izza, the building's daily cleaner. “I put on gray sweatpants, left the bedroom and went to the living room. Damn, my dog ​​followed in my footsteps, walking me to the door, making sure everything was ok. Sexually frustrated, I opened the door, intending to ask her to come back

    Jackson After a long day, I came home exhausted and dying to sleep. From work, I went to the gym which was like therapy for me. I undressed and went to the shower to take a shower. I felt the water running down my body, and the image of that unfriendly and beautiful neighbor came to mind. I didn't know for what purpose he invaded my mind out of the blue, maybe it was my conscience that said I possibly caused it. After all, who liked a noisy neighbor? It could also be because I couldn't accept the fact that he was the only person who didn't like me. Like this? It didn't make sense to me. I finished my shower, dried my body, put on sweatpants and a white t-shirt. I walked to the living room wanting to prepare my dinner and by chance I saw my book. This author was one of my favorites, I liked all of his books and they sent an important message to me. I've always liked reading, since I was a child, so hearing my neighbor comment that I didn't look like someone who read was absurd. I fou

    LukeAt six o'clock in the morning I was already up and having breakfast, ready for a new day of work. I took care of my clothes, because in a little while she would have a meeting with Anne, at her parents' house. She wore a white shirt, with black pants, and white pants. Nothing exaggerated, but elegant. I finished my coffee, said goodbye to my little girl and left the apartment. Walking towards the elevator, I put the house keys in my small bag and when I went to press the button, it happened that Jackson was also nearby and we pressed the button to go down at the same time, touching each other's fingers.I was so intent on putting my keys in my bag that I didn't even notice that he was also close to the elevator. We barely looked at each other and a silence appeared between the two of us, if I weren't in a hurry and if I didn't live on the twentieth floor, I would take the stairs. Because after what happened, I didn't have the face to look

    Next morning Luke My head hurt, it felt like the ceiling was spinning and I saw everything in a blurred way, not being sure where I was. I sighed and ran my hand over my head as I lifted my torso, then I felt the silky fur on my face and when I opened my eyes I saw the huge irises of my little dog staring at me, checking to see if she was alive. I was startled and sighed. I must have been used to it by now, as she always did this, but it was difficult to be indifferent. “Finally woke up sleepy.. “ Thomas commented, standing next to the cupboard, taking out the mugs and putting them on the table. “How long have I been sleeping? “ I stretched feeling like my head was going to explode. My dog ​​approached me and I petted her. Thomas sighed and looked at the clock. " It's 11 o'clock!" " What! “I almost jumped off the couch worried. “My God, I have to work! “Don't worry, I spoke to your boss, explained your condition, said that you had a huge migraine and I had to take you to the ho

    I barely left the room and went to the living room, where Thomas was, who had already made breakfast, bacon and fried eggs. We sat at the living room table next to each other.“Are you sure you're not going to tell the bride what an idiot her fiancé is? “ Thomas asked.“I'm not going, no one told me.”Thomas laughed loudly.“It's not my place to say that, it wouldn't be ethical and I'd rather earn the money in the account! Soon after their wedding, I will be free “I explained decisively and trying not to see it as a problem.“Looking back, there’s a point. I just don’t want you to get hurt.”I took a deep breath, thinking about what she told me about the state Jackson found me in.“Just out of curiosity, I was so bad when Jackson was here?“ I asked hoping to hear something different.Thomas just nodded confirming how devastated I was. I sighed, runni

    LukeDoing another round of the race, I saw one of my neighbors walking and because we weren't that close, he didn't see me. Patrick! Nothing against him, but there was something strange about him that I couldn't describe, something that perhaps many didn't see. Although he had a calm demeanor, he didn't appear violent, his look was sinister, which made me feel a sense of agony, but perhaps I was wrong, as he was talking to a pre-adolescent boy, about 12 years old at the most. . He wasn't in any awkward situation, he looked like he wanted to buy one of the boy's cookies.I took a deep breath, filling my chest with air, wanting to be more resilient in the run and with each step I took I got closer to my neighbor. Running a few more meters, he looked at me, making it clear that he recognized me, but his smile disappeared. I raised my hand, wanting to be nice, but he quickly looked away, turning his back on me and started walking, moving away from the boy

    LukeI stopped in front of a French-style cafe and parked the car. I've never been so nervous about having to deal with a client as I am now, so I couldn't wait for this wedding to take place so I wouldn't have to see them for a long time and if possible, never again. I got out of the car, walking straight into the cafeteria, arriving at the agreed location, I saw Anne sitting at one of the outdoor tables. She didn't even see me, because she was focused on talking on her cell phone. Looking at her, I took another deep breath and walked over to her, sitting at the table. We were facing another one.I showed Anne a smile and she just made a sign with her finger, asking me to give her a minute to continue talking on the phone. I just smiled and started looking around, appreciating the cafeteria, which was well attended and well decorated.“Luke... “Anne placed her cell phone on the table and looked at me smiling.“

    LukeAfter a morning withAnne and the rest of the day trying to resolve all the requests she had made, I was tired. Anne wanted it because she wanted a salon, which on the day she appealed was already booked. I almost found myself having to subordinate the salon manager to give up the space, but of course I didn't accept it, until I found a salon that met all her needs and was much more beautiful than the one she had chosen.I parked the car in the garage and walked to the elevator. I was tired, but I still had to go out again to dispose of the jar cakes I had bought, even though they were very good, I wouldn't be able to eat them all.I looked at the clock and saw how long the elevator was taking that I decided to take the stairs. It's true that I lived on the 11th floor, but I didn't mind, I was so rushed and anxious. I went up the stairs calmly, not wanting to get tired and when I realized I was already on the 7th floor and there were still several more to go

    LUCIEN I wake up early because I have to prepare Carol before going to school. I wake up 15 minutes late, now that I'm anemic, nauseous and dizzy. I'm slower and I can't have the same agility as before, but I'm improving. Dereck gave me his room and went to sleep in the guest room as I ordered. Lazily and drowsily, he gets me out of bed and leaves the room, walking down the hallway until I reach Carol's room. “Carol, wake up... “I say, entering the room and see the empty bed. I hear voices and I walk calmly, because I recognize Dereck and Carol's voices in the bathroom. I look over and I can't believe it when I see Carol already ready and Dereck holding her hair, trying to make a bun. The two talk, laughing. Carol teaches Dereck how to make a bun and the two have fun together. This dedication from Derek moves me. “Lucien, good morning... “Carol notices my presence.

    Lucien Next morning I was sitting on the bed in the hospital clinic. After so much effort I managed to eat, as she was dying of nausea and lack of appetite. Days later I felt unwell again and ended up in the hospital again. In fact, I had severe anemia and needed care. I finish eating lunch and place the plate on the tray. I pick up my cell phone and start texting my friend, wanting to know about my sister. I'm missing my little one. As soon as I pick up my cell phone and the door opens, I see the vision of Dereck and Carol entering my room together. Carol soon runs to me, carefully sits down on the bed and gives me a hug. “ My love! “I give a lot of kisses, full of longing. “ Are you well? “Yes, but I miss you too. Dereck approaches me with a calm look. “Are you feeling better, Lucien? “ What are you doing here, how do you know “Lorena told me everything. “ It's nothing serious. Thank you and thank you for bringing my sister “ I say smiling, because I can't disguise my happi

    3 weeks later Lucien I walk through the garden near my house with my sister, who is now 9 years old. She's getting more and more beautiful and it just fills me with pride. Always on Sundays, from 8am until 1pm, they close the street for walking. It's 9 am on a beautiful summer day. I wear black leggings and a black top, with a cap, and my sister is wearing yellow. Her favorite color. “Lucien, can I have a puppy or kitten?" “Of course you can, but do you promise to take good care of your pet?" “ Promise!" “Okay, this week I'll take you to an animal adoption home and you choose. “Yay! “Carol smiles, jumping. My sister has always liked animals, just like me, but since my dog ​​died ten years ago I've never had another pet. Her name was Betsy, she was my companion and best friend. “Little brother, isn't that Dereck? “Carol points out the last man I want to see on the face of the earth. She runs happily towards him, calling him. “Carol, come back here! “I quicken my steps, wanting

    LUCIENI want to hurt him at all costs. I want him to feel what I felt, to live in a dark world like the one I lived in when she simply took me out of her life as if I were nothing. “You’re no use to me.” I never forgot that phrase, but what continues to kill me inside is the way she said it, looking coldly into my eyes and having said it so easily, without even blinking. I didn't know if she ever really loved me or if it was her comfort, as she said the last time we saw each other, before I went to New York. If Dereck knew, I would leave everything for him, because he had everything here. He felt complete and anyway, he encouraged me to fight for more, but he destroyed every good thing I believed in. He made me see that love is for idiots and only serves as a consolation. That social level is much more important and now here I am. I'm on the list of the most successful.I've been in several places, until I got here, fighting to finally have the world I had left without him. I went to

    LucienI am stopped, as Dereck closes the door again, blocking my passage.“ You are crazy? “Dereck holds my arm and forces me to face him. “You're the one who's crazy and has a level of infinite arrogance!“I learned that from you.“What did you call me here for, then? To humiliate me? To be arrogant and rude?"What did you expect from me?"I stare at him for a few seconds, with no answer to give him, as I was expecting the opposite. I expected a yes and not just on the proposal, but on everything. I was hoping for a yes to having him back in my life. I expected a kiss and hot sex like other times. I was waiting for that Dereck I had known for four years, who said he loved me and adored my sister. That Dereck, who today was more like a Lucifer, a traitorous angel.Dereck holds my face, puts his mouth on mine. A rough, dominating kiss, as if wanting to demonstrate who the alpha is. A good, suffocating kiss, a mix of love and hate, perhaps more hate than love.“ Let me go. “I push him

    3 years laterDerekIn my room, just wearing a towel, choosing the suit I'm going to wear. I go to the wardrobe and see the shirt I wore the day I met Lucien at the strip club, a splendid night and a path to happiness, which I interrupted or which fate did not allow. I show a smile and run my hand over my dress, I close my eyes remembering the wonderful night I had. I remember his hands on me, feeling me, a touch without kisses, but one that managed to cause incredible sensations in my body. I open my eyes, returning with my feet on the ground; I close the wardrobe and finish getting dressed.I had been invited to the opening party of a multinational company called “Lucius”. An international magazine company, and one of the most expensive. This company exists in several places around the world and now it would have a branch here too. I had no idea who the partner of this company is, since it chooses a partner in each country where it has an established branch. However, I know one thin

    LucienI'm at home, I just got out of the shower, as I had gone to the gym. I just wear sweatpants and go to the fridge, make a snack and hear the doorbell ring.I quickly open the door and have a pleasant surprise when I see Dereck in front of me. I then give way for him to enter. I see the concern in his eyes, he looks distressed and afraid.“ Did something happen?He takes a deep breath, takes out his bag, takes out an envelope and hands it to me.“ What is that? “I ask, already opening the envelope. I take out the letter and start reading. I was accepted to do a 4”month corporate management internship and, if all went well, I would be given the position on a two”year contract. I'm speechless.“Congratulations “Dereck says with a trembling voice.I look at the date the letter was signed and it was just over a month ago; I only have fifteen days to prepare.“Dereck, when did you receive this letter?“ A month ago...“ One month? It took you a month to show me this?“I know, sorry! I

    DERECKIn front of my papers, I am analyzing some documents and signing new partnerships. In the middle there is a letter, coming from another multinational company in New York. In fact, this letter came by mistake, it was for Lucien. Months ago, another publisher opened applications for anyone who wanted to do a management internship at the company. Lucien and many signed up; he, as my assistant, is more than aware of what it's like to have to deal with certain companies in terms of business and everything. That's why he signed up. I took the letter and was in shock, not knowing what to do, I don't know why I'm anxious for the answer. I'm selfish for a moment in wishing that the letter stated that he didn't get the position, as I want him close to me and not far away, but I also hoped that he would be accepted, as it would be a great opportunity for him to grow in his professional career and I I would be very proud. I spend a few seconds looking at the letter, not knowing what to do,

    LUCIENI leave Dereck's office and go to my desk. Dereck does the same, going to his appointment. I spend some time at the company, sorting out some of my documents and sorting out some things. There's only me in the company, my other colleagues had already come forward. I close my suitcase, turn around and come across Ryco, who is looking at me in a bad mood.“Geez, Ryco, do you want to scare me to death?“What's going on between you and Dereck?“ What do you mean by that?“I'm not an idiot, Lucien, I see the looks, your reaction to her... “Ryco puts his hands on his hips. “She even tries to hide it, but I see a sparkle in her eyes.I don't comment, I just look at her as if I don't understand what she's saying.“Have you guys been fucking each other? You left me to hit the boss, didn't you? So you Lucien, all correct, opening your legs for your boss?—Watch how you talk, Ryco! He pays your salary and mine too, so let's have respect in our work environment.“I know you have been seein
