Erick had ice cream, watched as people walked from one place to another, it was a hot afternoon like no other, and many of the people present were dedicated to eating the refreshing dessert. The place was packed with people, many people sitting at different tables. They did not leave space anywhere to enjoy dessert when a young lady approaches delicately and, looking at Erick, said.
“Excuse me, I know this is weird, but I was wondering if I could sit with you!”
Erick looked at the girl for a long second, and her short hair reached her shoulder. Her brown skin gave her a unique appearance that was not seen many times, and her quality smile invited her to meet her. With ease, Eric got up and, looking at her affably, he said.
“Yes, of course! Sure no problem!”
She smilingly took the invitation and calmly pulling the chair she sat in front of him. Erick couldn’t stop looking at her, and she calmly and very naturally said.
Erick was looking Simone in the face, she seemed eager to hear his story and smiling he said.“I’ll tell you the story of how we met!”*******You have always been a rich girl with so much money that your father never let you go anywhere on your own. He always sent you to the places where you had to go by limousine and was always accompanied by his loyal guard.One day that loyal guard fell ill and asked his son to take over, Erick the guard’s son was a handsome, attractive boy, loyal, intelligent and quite efficient, for that reason you fell in love with him instantly, but as always you were under the will of your father you never dared to say anything to him.One good day your father sent you to see someone, a man that you undoubtedly disliked. Your father’s plan was for that man to marry you to inherit his natural gas company, but you hated that man and married you with him. It was an idea that disgusted you.
Erick waited at the ice cream parlor, he ate calmly looking in all directions, it was already ten past two, and she did not appear. He did not understand why she would not stand up or why she would not come when that whole meeting was her idea.He felt down. For some reason, he thought that could be the start of something great, but twenty minutes had already passed, and she had not arrived. As time passed, his disappointment grew, and he believed. He blamed himself for being hopeful in such a chaotic event when at that moment, he felt a delicate hand on his shoulder.When he turned to see who was touching him, he saw a smiling Simone who sat next to him, when he saw her he said.“I thought you were not coming!”The young woman grinned and said.“And leave you with the last word? Of course not. It’s my turn to tell how we met!”Sitting down, she ordered the same ice cream flavor that he and smiling Erick asked.
In the following days, Erick frequented the ice cream parlor but had no luck. Simone had not been there again. The last thing she had told him was that she wanted him to save her like in his stories, but that was crazy. In stories, he could be brave and daring, but that was not the case in real life. In real life, He was a shy boy without many resources what a young man like that could do to save her.Especially to her, who looked so assertive, so strong, completely different from him, what he could do to become one of those characters that they built who faced adversity without problems, who tried to solve difficulties with heroic acts that changed the panorama completely.Sitting for the third day in a row in that ice cream parlor, he looked in all directions, and he hoped that at any moment, Simone would come in with her live smile and another one of those crazy stories they told each other.But that didn’t happen, the hours passed, and he just lost hop
The hug was prolonged, but Erick calmly stroked his head, he did not understand the reason for her behavior or why everyone in that place acted that way, looking around he looked at the walls of the office full of achievements and recognition for her work and she with some fear said.“How did you find me?”Erick looked at her and, sitting down, took a deep breath when he said.“I found out at the ice cream parlor that you worked here! And then I had an infinite amount of luck with the guards at the entrance and a girl who, according to what she said, works in the office next door.“Lidia!”Erick shrugged and, looking at Simone, said.“There are so many things I want to ask you, so many things that intrigue me!”Simone produced a shy smile, and it was the first time he had seen her so vulnerable when she said.What happens in this place? Why does everyone act that way?”She
Erick was sitting calmly at his house, ice cream was already his favorite dessert, and he had ordered one from the ice cream parlor in which his life had been transformed. The story that Simone had told him had changed his perspective of him himself.He had never lied, but he had never been really proud of who he was, that a woman like Simone, so powerful, so strong, so assertive, could remember the way he was and that transformed her life was an affirmation of who he was. He was a person of value, and from now on, he couldn't forget it.He remembered that day, after the story that Simone had told him about the first time they saw each other he remembered the whole event, he remembered the scent of Simone when he saw her for the first time, her smile and the way the nerves in his stomach got out of control. He felt unable to converse with her openly, but his character as a child was much more assertive.That in him had certainly changed, smiling at things as the

As Maryanne lay quietly there beside her mate, a long-forgotten memory occurred to her.She tried to blush it off unsuccessfully, feeling it hit her bluntly. A memory of so many moons ago, one that she wouldn’t forget.The memory of her first time seeing her daddy break down, something she had thought impossible. They had been sitting by a woolen mat at their Condos fireplace that particular Winter holiday.She had just turned 14 a week earlier and was home enjoying the morning with her daddy. For most of their lives, they had spent just the two of them and had always been there for each other.It was during this moment that curious, and she had asked her daddy what had made *Momma leave them. Tears flowing down his cheeks, her dad had quietly risen from where he sat and walked to a drawer in the corner.

Alice Hezron sat in her office, going through some work logs from the day before. On days like this, she got to work earlier than usual. Some of her colleagues teased her that she was a workaholic, something she didn’t mind as long as she got paid.Her phone rang, and she was tempted to ignore it but couldn’t. Business etiquette demanded that she answers all calls.“Hello,” she said into the phone.“Hello,” her secretary Amie said. ‘I would like to remind you of the board meeting that should start in ten minutes,’Alice had been so consumed in her work that she had not realized it was almost time to present the report of her new project. She loved and dreaded such presentations despite being a veteran in the real estates field.“Thank you so much, Amie. It had slipped my mind,” she said into the phone and disconnected. She searched through her computer for the report she was to present and
