Then the door opened, heading our way, blocking us as Ben and Salma entered.I got up immediately, turning my back to Hector. Ben closed the door and came face to face with us, while Hector finished pulling on his pants.- Disqualified? Ben looked at him, who was with his face close to my right shoulder.Salma looked at me and turned around:- I forgot something.- Salma... Come back here! – Ben called.She had already opened the door and left. Ben stood still, with several bags in his hands, looking at us confused, not knowing how to act.- Hector was on his way out. I said, trying to find words to justify his presence there.'I realised… Off on a tangent, you mean,' he chuckled. – Welcome back, Thorzinho.Hector pushed me away a few centimeters and said, with his head on my shoulder:- Good night, Ben!Ben smiled and turned away with the bags:-I'll keep it here. Are you staying for dinner? Or to sleep, who knows? – he asked before entering the hallway.- Could it be both? - He pull
The day before our departure for Noriah Sul, I took the flower-shaped ring, very expensive, so much so that, ironically, it was almost worth my life, since that was the intention when my mother received it, and I put it in my bag.It was after nine o'clock when I asked Daniel to drop me off at the cemetery where my mother's body was buried.- Want me to wait for you? he asked, as soon as he parked the car in the main entrance.- No. I'll walk later.- But it's late, Baby. It will soon be dark.- I'll walk. I know it's a bit far, but I need to walk a little and enjoy my last moments in Noriah North – he smiles. “If I get tired along the way, I'll call you. – Guarantee.- Okay, I'll keep an eye on the phone. Just don't take too long because I'm going to Babylon soon.- All right, Daniel. Go easy. I smiled and gave him a kiss on the cheek.- What has changed between us? - he asked.I was silent, looking at him, wondering what to say."Because everything was fine," he continued. And sudde
- This is not a dream, Barbara. It's real. And tomorrow you will be sober and unfortunately you may not remember anything that happened here.I took her hands off my tie and scrambled away.- Are you hungry? I asked.- Only you.Fuck! I would have to be very strong not to take her clothes off and kiss every inch of her skin before I fucked her with all my might.I turned around and took a deep breath. I have never used a woman's drinking to take advantage of myself, although I have been abused by them a lot because of my condition of drinking too much.She shifted in bed and I came back, taking off her shoes to make her more comfortable.- Sleep, Barbara.- Only if it's with you. Lie on my side.I sighed and removed my shoe, lying down beside her as far away as I could. She rolled over to me, laughing as she lifted her chest, trying to brace herself on her arms, barely able to keep her eyes fixed on mine.- I like to dream about you - he said. - I love your eyes.- Love you. - I touch
I don't remember seeing her so susceptible to me since we met. Barbara always tried to stay strong and steady, but she also had her weaknesses. And drinking might be one of them.- I'll never drink wine again... Never, my whole life. My head hurts... And everything is spinning... Too fast.I took her to the shower and turned on the shower, letting the water run cold. She screamed and tried to pull away as soon as she felt the water.I took off his clothes, trying not to get hard. But it was impossible.- Let's make Love now? She arched her brow mockingly.- Later. – I heard myself saying.Fuck, who are you, Hector? When in your life have you refused a naked woman wanting you?The thing is, she wasn't just any woman. She was the woman of my life, the only one I loved and I don't know if I would feel for another the way I felt for her.I pushed her lightly under the shower and she ended up accepting the ice water. It took nearly five minutes to squeeze the shampoo tube, not seeming to k
I wish I could talk to Anon more, but my head has never been so confused in my life. It was a mix between wanting to go and at the same time staying that I couldn't explain. Strong feelings that came to ache inside me at the same time as fear haunted me in a way I've never seen before.If Hector continued to be that debauched and characterless man I saw a few months ago, it would be easy to say goodbye. But the new Hector I was getting to know was so sweet and kind that it made me want to throw myself at his feet, doing exactly what he wanted.Why had life been so cruel to me? Why did Jardel appear so many years ago? What is his purpose in my life? Show me how horrible a man could be and destroy the good part of me that still existed?I often thought he had come to make me grow. But now he doubted it. Jardel came to finish me off and ruin even my future.My heart said: Play, Barbara! Hector is the love of your life. You stayed with him when the man had two wives and now that he's will
- Thanks for the surprise. We love the reception. - Thank you.- I didn't do it. I just got the idea.- And who did? - I was curious.- This person here. – Showed Milena next to him on the screen.- Milena? I felt my heart beat faster. - You are...- Together. - She showed her ring finger, which had a ring.- My God! It can not be.- Thank you, Cupid. She smiled sincerely.- You don't know how happy I am for you.- And I for Sebastian have a sister who changed things between the Casanovas and Perrone... At least for now. He rolled his eyes.- And his mother? – I asked.- She does not know.- But you'll know soon enough. – Sebastian justified.- But... Are you in Noriah North?- No. We are in my apartment in Italy.- Living together?- No... Not exactly. But soon, yes. – Milena said, looking at him. – I was in Noriah North until yesterday. I organized your apartment and then flew straight here. And so we are.- Love on an air shuttle, with stopovers at least. – I played.- And your mot
When I arrived at the hospital, nearly an hour after Ben called, I found him and Daniel at the front desk. As soon as they saw me, the two came towards me at the same time and hugged me tightly. I noticed the reddened eyes of Ben, who had certainly been crying and the expression of sadness on Daniel's face.- How is she? Tell me it's okay.- It is not alright. Daniel pressed his lips together, trying not to make them quiver like when he started the sentence.- Any news? Is Maria Luna born yet?- We're just told to wait, wait and wait… – Daniel continued distressed.I looked at Ben, who wiped away the stubborn tear that was trying to fall. I went to him and pressed him against my body:- You can cry if you want. Don't hold it to yourself. I'll be here and you can use my shoulder.- She'll make it. I know it will. She did everything right... Everything. - He said.- I thought the same thing. Of course God wouldn't leave a newborn baby without a mother, would He? Who will sing “ You are
As soon as my performance was over, I got off the glass stage and went to the dressing room. My heart was pounding and I knew it wasn't from fatigue or adrenaline from the night. It was fear and anxiety that I felt at that moment.I should be removing my makeup and getting ready to leave. But not that night.Some of the dancers were talking and I stood there, staring at myself in the mirror. There was a time when I didn't like being a redhead. Today I accepted myself and I knew that just because I was a redhead, I caught the attention of some men. Even freckles didn't bother me anymore and my green eyes have been compared to emeralds.But I didn't want to get all the men's attention anymore. I only wanted the attention of one: Heitor Casanova. The thing is, the bastard never looked in my direction. Inside Babylon, he only had eyes for Cindy and no one else.- Do you think she made “macumba” for him, Salma?- Hey? I looked in the direction of the girls, who were cleaning the makeup off
