Anthonio remained in his bedroom long after Natalia had left. He lay on his bed, staring up at the ceiling, unable to sleep. His mind was filled with thoughts of Natalia and the news she had shared with him. He couldn't believe that Mrs. Roger was really planning to move to California. The thought of Natalia and Ethan leaving him was overwhelming and he didn't know how he would cope.Meanwhile, Natalia was regretting sharing the news with Anthonio. As she lay in bed, she could only think about how much pain her words had caused him. She knew how much he cared about her and Ethan, and she didn't want to hurt him.Eventually, Natalia got out of bed and went to Anthonio's room. She knocked on the door gently and waited for him to answer.After a moment, Anthonio opened the door and saw Natalia standing outside. "Hey," he said softly."Anthonio, I'm sorry," Natalia said, looking into his eyes. "I didn't mean to upset you with the news about Mrs. Roger. I know how much you care about u
Unable to shake her worries about Anthonio, Natalia decided to make her way to his mother's house. She knew that Anthonio was close to his family and hoped that he might have sought refuge there.When she arrived at the house, she found Anthonio sitting under the tree in their tiny garden. Her heart lifted at the sight of him, but it quickly sank when he refused to follow her down to the house."Anthonio, please come home with me," Natalia pleaded. "We need to talk about what's going on."Anthonio shook his head. "I don't want to talk, Natalia. I just need some time alone to think."Natalia felt a knot form in her stomach, worried that Anthonio's thoughts might drive him further away. "But Anthonio, we need to work this out. You can't just leave like this."Anthonio looked up at her with a pained expression. "I'm not leaving, Natalia. I just need some space. I need to figure out what I want and what's best for me."Natalia felt tears welling up in her eyes. "But don't you know h
Natalia couldn't help but let out a frustrated sigh as she sat alone in her room, unable to shake off the feeling of confusion and sadness that had been haunting her ever since her argument with Anthonio.She had tried to make amends, to reach out to him and talk things out like they always used to, but every attempt had been met with silence. It was as if he wanted nothing to do with her anymore, and that thought alone made her heart ache."Why won't he talk to me?" she mumbled to herself, running her hands through her hair in frustration. "We've been friends for so long, I don't understand why he's acting like this."Meanwhile, on the other side of town, Anthonio was doing his best to keep his distance. He knew that if he allowed himself to get too close to Natalia again, he would only fall right back into old habits. Habits that had taken him down a destructive path before.He didn't want to hurt her, didn't want to drag her into his mess again. And so, he decided that the bes
Anthonio knew that he needed to find a way to move on from his feelings of sadness and hurt over what happened between him and Natalia. And so, he started seeing someone new - a girl who shared many of Natalia's qualities and interests.At first, Anthonio was hesitant about getting too close to someone again. But the more time he spent with this girl, the more he realized that he was ready to let go of his past with Natalia and start fresh.When Natalia caught sight of Anthonio with his new love interest, her heart sank. She felt a stab of jealousy and hurt that she couldn't quite explain. It wasn't like she was still pining for him - she had accepted that things between them were never going to be the way they used to be. But seeing him with someone else stirred up emotions she had been trying to keep buried.As she rushed back into her apartment, she couldn't help but sob as she thought about everything that had happened. It wasn't fair, she thought to herself. Anthonio shouldn'
The revelation that the new girl was engaged, but still wanted a deep relationship with Anthonio, left him feeling uneasy. He was attracted to her and enjoyed spending time with her, but he didn't want to be the cause of any heartache and drama."I don't know if that's a good idea," he said hesitantly. "It seems like you have a lot to sort out before you can commit to anyone else."The new girl looked at him with a mixture of frustration and longing. "I know, I know," she said, shaking her head. "But I can't help how I feel. I feel more alive and happy when I'm with youAs the days went by, Anthonio found himself growing more and more conflicted about his feelings for the new girl. On one hand, he enjoyed spending time with her and was attracted to her. On the other hand, he knew that there were potential complications to pursuing a relationship with someone who was already engaged.He decided to sit down with her and talk things through, wanting to make sure that they were both
Anthonio looked at himself in the mirror and sighed. At 37, he felt like he had wasted so much time on relationships that didn't work out. He wanted something more, something that would last.He made the decision to visit Natalia. He needed to know why she didn't want to consider him for marriage, and if there was anything he could do to change her mind.When he arrived at her apartment, she looked surprised to see him. "Anthonio, what are you doing here?"Anthonio took a deep breath. "Natalia, I need to know something. Why don't you want to consider me for marriage? We've been through so much together, and I love you. I want to spend the rest of my life with you."Natalia looked down at her hands. "Anthonio, I'm not sure I'm ready for that kind of commitment. I know I've hurt you in the past, and I don't want to hurt you again."Anthonio took her hand. "Natalia, I'm willing to take that risk. I love you, and I want to make things work. But if you're not ready, I understand. I jus
After resolving their issues, Anthonio and Natalia found themselves in a slightly different kind of relationship. While they still cared deeply for each other, they both agreed that getting married was not something they wanted at the moment.Anthonio explained, "I think we're both pretty independent people. We love each other, but we don't need to get married to prove anything. We still want to be able to live our lives on our own terms."Natalia nodded in agreement, "I agree. We've both been through enough in our lives to know that being true to ourselves and our feelings is the most important thing. And right now, we feel good about being together, but we don't want to put any more pressure on ourselves."Anthonio smiled, "Exactly. I don't want to mess up something great by trying to fit it into some kind of traditional mold. I'm happy being with you in the way that feels right for us."Natalia's face lit up, "That makes me so happy to hear you say that. I feel the same way. A
When Natalia got home, she immediately picked up the phone and called the family lawyer. She wanted to discuss the case against Justino's mom and what could be done to help her.The lawyer listened patiently as Natalia explained the situation, and after a few moments of silence, he cleared his throat, "Natalia, this is a serious case. I will do everything I can to get Mrs Roger out of detention, but the case will still be on, and we will need a strong defense."Natalia nodded, "I understand. But what can we do to prove her innocence? She wouldn't hurt anyone; she's kind-hearted and gentle."The lawyer sighed, "I know, Natalia, and that is why this case is so troubling. But we have to be realistic. The evidence against her is strong, and the prosecution will not relent easily. We need to find evidence or witnesses that can attest to her character and place her somewhere else at the time of the crime."Natalia felt helpless, "But where do we start looking? And how long will this
