OLIVIA.

I hated doctors, I hated being in the hospital. I wouldn't have wanted to worry anyone, I needed to be home.

But even my own home reminded me of him. And he reminded me of everything that happened.

What I will never forget. Ever.

Since my furtive outings with Carl began, I never thought of him as truly dangerous.

Yes, for a moment I believed and suspected that maybe he managed accounts of "heavy" people, as we usually say in Maracaibo City. These people are those who possess goods and wealth with money of dubious origin, creating around them a significant power, sometimes visible, sometimes not. The word "heavy" qualifies them in a rank that the common citizen should not get into.

I know what this job of calculating payments is, working with payrolls that adhere to the administration of accounts, reviewing other people's money, touching it, handling it, I like it, it is what I have been studying, but in my very particular case, apart from not having practiced until now, I run

    CARL.Something was going on with Olivia, something really bad.It was not enough to spare her the cumbersome hassle of police interviews and statements, nor was it enough to talk to her doctor about the status of the injuries, which were not serious, we were too lucky, by the way.It was no relief for me to know that the police would not be after me. I suspect Meléndez did his job by interfering because I learned that the officers located him after I provided the list of companies I worked for.Before that happened before the agents knocked on his doors looking for him, old Meléndez and I had an interesting conversation by phone.I wouldn't like to reveal what my head imagined doing to him, had he and I been face to face, especially after understanding that, despite apologizing to me a hundred times and offering his contacts at the hospital to take care of Olivia like a queen, he defended his nephew, or his wife's nephew, precisely because of her, because of his wife. So much bullshi

    OLIVIA.I was having lunch.It had been two weeks since the event in front of my apartment.It was incredible how nothing was reported in the local press and any social network. In this harassing world, full of cameras and cell phones? Where people breathe the Internet and exhale information, false or not, exaggerated or not... C'mon!There was no doubt in my mind: what happened to Carl and me was orchestrated by people with a lot of influence, but those around Carl Malaver must have had even more influence to ensure that no one said anything.What'd happened to our belongings, all those that were left inside his car? My handbag with my documents and my cell phone, all that I considered lost because I didn't even dare to contact him to claim my stuff, to ask for them back, or anything like that.It was Thursday.I was stirring my glass of juice with my left arm, the free one, unbound by slings, ropes, or bandages. Mom was out shopping and it was a little hard to convince her to go out

    OLIVIA.It was necessary to do it.I had to tell Carl all things as I thought them, plainly, from the bottom of my soul.As I told before, doing so broke my heart and I think it broke his too. His face when I told him we couldn't see each other anymore... I won't forget that either.I take a deep breath and exhale, because always, always, always when I remember this, my throat closes up from the pain it gives me.I simply could not stay in a relationship with him. Automatically, I felt a refusal to continue and I'm not a woman who believes in movies. Bullets don't dodge in real life, we were just lucky and God was present there because maybe we're saved from that tragedy, what would happen the next time? If it happened once, which guaranteed that it would not happen again?Sitting in the living room of Mom's little house, Carl stared at me with a serious and annoyed face.We remained in absolute silence. Outside, it seemed that even the course of life itself had stopped because of us.

    CARL.After seeing and feeling her rejection, I knew that the percentage of losing was huge, bigger, much bigger than that hope, at the end of that day (at least), we would be okay.Olivia decreed to finalize the relationship and it bothered me greatly that it was because of trauma, ingrained fears of an event for which I had no responsibility.I felt fucked up. In front of her, again sitting very close to each other in that small living room, I felt desperate, I was willing to keep fighting for that woman, but at the same time sadness invaded me, it weighed too much and I had her on top of me."I became Meléndez's accountant several years ago, I started my internship with him. Then I continued as a freelancer. Today, I work for several companies." I wanted to keep things simple, but Olivia didn't look good. "Meléndez contacted me not long ago to work on his consortium's accounting because he suspected he was being ripped off."I paused and looked at her. She had already returned from

    OLIVIA.I was about to come again, my tremors were wretched and loud.I couldn't help but give myself once again to that man, give him the most intimate thing I have, my body and soul in that sex in the living room, not caring if mom came, not caring about my wounds and my sling. I didn't value the possibility that outside, someone would hear us panting, uninhibited, that noon. I didn't care about anything for the minutes that slippery, forceful, desperate fucking lasted.I screamed as my second orgasm exploded and he went wild. He lifted me like a juggler and used me like an artifact, pounding the walls of my vagina with his thunderous penetrations, anchoring his hands and fingers-like claws on my ass and hips.There it was, his arrival. From the wrinkles in his brows and his piercing gaze, I knew it. Carl was trying to survive an exponential arousal, panting loudly and even louder when he finished, spurts that went inside me without remorse, thrusting a couple more times until he em

    OLIVIA.(One more week).I went to work like that, practically moved. Or rather, escaped, but I didn't come back, I couldn't do it from one moment to the next, how difficult it was for me.But the day came. A Thursday again. A week had passed since the last time I saw Carl and just as I was dealing with my dreams and nightmares, I was also dealing with his memory, something that I sensed would be a long road to travel, because if I couldn't get out of mom's house, how could it be possible to return to him? Besides, he seemed to understand me perfectly, that reaction of mine when I came out of the boudoir after the panic attack he gave me, made him interpret my words, which did not tell my true desire, very well, as he is intelligent. That's why Carl hadn't looked for me either.I stood in front of the mirror inside what was my room when I lived there. It was a long glass, so I could see my whole body.Wearing only my white panties, I took off my sling and looked at my side. I had a sc

    CARL.(A day after lunch between Olivia and Leonidas)."It's good to find you here, although I'm not happy about it," Nancy said when she saw me sitting at one of the tables at La Napolitana.I didn't do many relevant things since Olivia and I met at her mother's house, but the last thing I did was to go to the fucking restaurant that reminded me of her at all times and where, of course, I wouldn't meet her, even if I could conjure up such a moment with all kinds of magic.The normal thing to do was not to go anywhere, less there, much less alone, but I didn't care. I was already starting to need to get out of the apartment. My son's mother went with him to the country's capital to visit some family, Christmas was approaching and I would go crazy for not having nearly everything I wanted, who I loved, what I liked.The blonde woman with short hair, with an outfit between black and white that (I must say) fit her to perfection, with that thin fabric panty close to the body with bell bo

    CARL.Christmas had arrived and Caracas promised good weather, extreme madness, and no stopping.That's how the big city was, the second big apple of the world, with its groups of people pushing you in the subway, each one doing his own thing, coming and going, crowded with thoughts and troubles, debts and debauchery.I liked the city, I couldn't deny it, but at the same time, I missed Maracaibo too much, the people, and Olivia.Time flew by and I found myself riding on his wings, although it was not my intention. While it tore me to think that I would not return so soon, starting to work online just to say goodbye to the year, at the same time I knew I could not miss the opportunity to do business in the capital, besides, I was with my son, we were seeing each other more often and that was extremely positive.I communicated little with Nancy. She kept me up to date on the situation about that asshole Charlie, whom no one had interviewed and the same person who, perhaps, could be kept

    OLIVIA.I didn't bleed anymore. Of course, we didn't have sex that month. But the next month, in April, after the first official consultation and starting the usual check-up, we started to break the news.I told Mom, he to his parents and cousin. Everyone screamed in their way, too surprised, tearful, beautiful, very beautiful to say something like that and have everyone's support, the best thing that could happen.I wasn't nauseous, I just disliked some foods, while others I like very much now. I was very sleepy, that's for sure. And I used to sleep as much as I could after coming home from work.Then came the news in the Insurance. I thought a lot about whether to announce it at once or not. It was getting busy and pregnancy always meant sick leave, pre, and post-natal leave, and bonuses, among other things depending on the company policy, I did not know if the news would go down well at all.But the opposite happened; at least that's what they made me feel. Especially my boss, his

    CARL."Excuse me?""Help me to my feet."Of course, I helped her.I carefully lifted her, and helped her clean herself.I got her clothes immediately, sat her on the be,d and dressed quickly.I grabbed the keys from the pick-up,and the wallet and we walked out of the apartment straight to the elevator, to my car, where I helped her into it, although I realized she could do it on her own, and we got out of there.I tried to drive like a civilized man, but my nerves were attacking me."Did you know you were pregnant? Since when?""I'm not. Drive carefully, Carl, please."I nodded and slowed down."Okay, let's see. If you're not pregnant, why did you tell me that in the bathroom?""My period is not due yet and I was bleeding heavily. I was in a lot of pain, Carl. I didn't want to wake you up, but I almost didn't make it to the bathroom.""Shit, Olivia, damn it! You should have said something to me, we've been at the clinic for a while now... We're getting there. Good thing I thought of m

    CARL.I carried dinner in bags, my rolling suitcase in another, and maneuvered with the keys. I waved to the concierge and went upstairs.I opened the door expecting to see Olivia, but I didn't expect her to be like this.Yes, I asked her to undress, but being obeyed to the letter and beyond is too much of an impression.She stood with her back to me wearing wicked black heels. Nothing else.Her hair was down and as she turned towards me, her fully waxed mons pubis and wild face almost made my pants explode.Quietly (pretending to feel that), I arranged everything on the floor of the entryway and walked over to her.She had her hands behind her lower back and with them, held herself against the glass.The terrace had been reopened and rearranged, and that construction served perfectly to generate light around the female who was waiting for me.I sighed deeply. She smelled exquisite, all of her."Stay like this." I knew my command would be fulfilled to perfection.I took the food to th

    OLIVIA.Hot, it was very, very hot that morning in early March.The months fly by, you don't realize it. And things are happening and passing as if everything was a long corridor that we had to walk down.The end of the year was a good celebration. For obvious reasons, we preferred to stay at home. Our adrenaline level was already sky high and Carl was not ready to "jump-jump for his life", as he put it. So, we invited his cousin to the apartment, who came with her husband, and a little black box that I didn't see until after the gunshot.The ring... I still can't believe it.Carl has told me how he got it, without any shame, managing very well that philosophy of no secrets, although I know we'll always keep for each other some little thing we don't want to say or tell.But there he was, hugging me from behind as we watched some beautiful fireworks that some neighbors launched outside the entire building.We watched them from the largest window in the living room, Carl and I, his cous

    CARL.Olivia saved my life. That's how it is. That's how it was.I only think of the possibility that if I had been there alone, or with another woman, maybe I wouldn't be telling this episode of my life.I'm still dazed and in my body runs a painful relief, the one that manages to channel and make me think of things that I would not have done before, but I needed to get up soon, or I would go crazy.Walk a little, go to the bathroom, drink water, or something stronger. Olivia was doing all that for me, but she was asleep, I wasn't going to wake her up.Nobody shot me, they shot Nancy. And thanks to Olivia, who saw when the guy came towards the blonde to shoot her almost at point blank range, my girlfriend managed to get to the ground just before being hit by the bullet.The problem was when we fell, we stumbled hard against the table, the tablecloth rolled off crazily and we got tangled up in sharp things, like a damn glass pitcher full of water that someone left on the edge of the c

    NANCY.Juan Finol's push prevented my body from lying, catastrophically, on the pavement in front of my restaurant.Both of us, escort and I, fell to the ground. And in a matter of seconds, a couple of men belonging to the restaurant's security and part of Finol Sr.'s crew, fell on top of the guy like hungry gazelles making his escape impossible."Nancy, are you okay? Nancy, hey, are you okay?!"I was trembling, my heart was beating fast, and I felt dazed.I looked at the person who wanted to kill me, I wanted to see his face, something that the hood of the sweater made impossible for me.But face down, hands tied behind his back, I could not see him.Then, I focused my gaze on Juan. He looked dismayed, waiting for an answer from me.I held his forearms tightly, he kept caressing my face trying to revive me."Am I hurt?" was what my lips said, but it was not what I wanted to say. I wanted to say a thousand things and that's all that came out.He quickly checked my body. He shook his h

    NANCY."Can't I stay out of my restaurant either?" I asked Juan Finol's inveterate pursuer. "What a nuisance with that guy! I came to hire your bodyguard services at the right time".He wouldn't let me in the sun, or the shade, neither to other people's cigarettes nor to city fumes or alcoholic beverages. He wouldn't leave me either on roads or sidewalks, cars or trucks, nothing, he wouldn't leave me in peace, he wouldn't leave me in peace! And I thought he didn't like my resistance and every act of stubbornness I showed him.Finol Junior Second approached me while I was on the phone.Mom wouldn't answer. I'm the worst daughter in the world. I started to organize everything and I missed the time she told me to call her. She must have left her cell phone somewhere in the apartment or whatever.My family is big, but few of us are close. My father and mother were still alive, still married and traveling, spending Christmas far away from home. They were in Miami.I wanted to talk to them,

    OLIVIA.I felt like the luckiest woman in the world.We arrived at the restaurant, we were treated excellently. What a spectacular atmosphere there was inside La Napolitana, it reminded me so much of their anniversary party, the one Carl and I were at; (well, I was, actually). That time, waiting for him was uncomfortable, I thought he wouldn't go, but it was fun to see the level of organization of Nancy and her people, they always pull out all the stops.That 24th were not as many people as that night, the paraphernalia was not as high.Outside I did not find girls dressed in the promotion of a brand of alcoholic beverage, the celebration that December was a little quieter, although all the tables around ours were occupied.I saw families with underage children, that partly I liked, partly I did not. It always generated a bit of stress for me to see 14, 12-year-olds there. I never understood why they let children in the place, but sure, I understand, it is a family restaurant, however

    OLIVIA."Baby, are you all right? It hurt pretty bad yesterday. When are you going to see a doctor? Every time that happens, my life gets a little short." I had to laugh. "I keep thinking about it all day long. I'd like to think about sex all day long, not what exactly hurt you from sex."That was Carl. That was the memory of Malaver in my head, as I was grooming myself in the bathroom, one that was about to be over, just a few minutes away.In just one week, being that night December 24, we were already loaded with all the ready clothes and the desire to enjoy ourselves.We wanted to go now. Especially to that specific place. Carl and I were very excited because last December we didn't celebrate together because of our breakup. I remember it with a bit of annoyance, since he celebrated in Caracas with the mother of his son and they even kissed and I celebrated at my mother's company in a tower in the city, the same company that at that time was having problems, even though mom had no
