His baby made me even more nervous than I already was.
I passed my wet palms over my stomach in an attempt to dry them, then I remembered I was wearing a three thousand dollars Carolina Herrera I stopped.
I don't know what I expected to find tonight, what's worst, I shouldn't be dressed up to go to a charity show at eight o'clock on a Tuesday night, much less as Mark's companion.
Yesterday, my answer was going to be a clear and concise no, because I knew that accepting this date would lead us to a point of no return in this relationship. You see? There shouldn't even be the word relationship between us, but of course, he puts his mouth on mine or on any other part of my anatomy and every neuron in my brain stops working.
Speaking of mouth... I covered my face with both hands as I remembered what he did to me last night.

Three days.It had been three long, torturous days since I lastsawOlivia.Seven text messages sent and none answered.The last I heard from her,thanks to Elizabeth,wasthat shehad traveled to Chicago to sort out some details with other publicity events she was supposed to cover.I got out of the elevator like a lost soul, without even saying good morning to Nina, who looked nervous.That was weird.“Sir.” she got up right away with an agenda in hand “First you have a meeting with Mr. Kristopolis atnine, then attenthe group of investors from Los Angeles will come to talk about the new ecological game console,then...”“Nina.” I cut her off immediately feeling violent at all the chattering “Clear my morning, and move it all over to the afternoon, it's Friday,okay?Give me a break.”“Sir.” she&n

As promised, Mark had stayed away from me in the weeks that followed.He greeted me cordially with agood morningorgood afternoon,but beyond that, nothing happened.The incursions into our offices during working hours were over, as well as looking for some touching, the looks full of promise, the sensual and wet stolen kisses in a hall, elevator or car.And his insistence on wanting to make me change my mind about our relationship ended too;Although his insistence had exasperated me, today I missed it too much.Every time I saw him in the corridors of the company or in the conference room, I wanted to start screaming like crazy and tell him to take me right there in front of everyone so they’ll found out we were together for once.But that was impossible, at least for me, because I knew I hurt him again with my way of acting, but I preferred to see him with broken f

Don't you see that your son is about to lose his last chance to be with the woman heloves?” “But,whatdo I do,Mom?She doesn't want to be with me.” “Of course she wants to,darling, she's just scared, don't let her go, everything will be solved.” “Doyou know what happened to her?” “Here in heaven?

I love you.Fifteenhours later, his statement still made me sigh.After having sex for the third time, I had collapsed like a dead person onthecouch;He had dressed me again without me knowing anythingandhad huggedmefrom behind,our legsintertwined.Or at least that's what I think he did, because we had woken up in that position.I have never woken up so happy and light astoday.I moved slowly, coming out of his bear hug without really wanting to. He fidgeted a bit as if looking for something and then calmed.I made my way to the kitchen,to his amazing and beautiful kitchen,and started looking for breakfast and coffee.Contrary to what I came to think, Mark's apartment was very nice and comfortable, of course it screamed money everywhere, but in a classy way.His kitchen hadquartzcountertopsand matchedthe

By Monday morning, Iwas calmer and it could be said that I had another perspective on the events that had occurred on Saturday.Of course, that’s how I felt today, because the rest of my Saturday, I spent it burning my anger out on the boxing bag and the treadmill.With the boxing bag I had won, and with the machine well... I fell.And it hurt a lot.But yesterday, well, like I said, my mind was clearer than the day before.And I had to admit,that my discomfort was because while we were making love, I had once again vomited all my feelings, Ihad told herthat I lovedherandshe,although excited, andknowingthat she feels the same,had simply shut up.Although hereyesgave me the answer I wanted.That’s whyI didn’t insist.I just left her alone and kept burying myself in her depths instead of making her see the reality that she was trying

You know that moment when you studied an infinite number of hours to approve thatimportant test, andwhen you’re done you feel you've eaten the world because of how amazing your answers were, but when the teacher is revising it, you start to think that everything is wrong and all your effort went down the trash bind?It was a very long question, I know,but thisis howI feel.Mark was watching me drink the coffee he had preparedwhen we gotto his house and,although it was already cold and the drunkenness had long since passed, I continued to delay the conversation that awaited us.I felt that at the moment I opened mymouth and told him all the details of my life, my miserable life, I would see that look I hated.I knew he would walk away.That he would never touch me again.He would nevertell me again that he loved me.I knew he’d look atme with pity an
