Louise

I had no reaction to everything that had just happened in such a short time. Mauricio left and I went to the kitchen to get the other glasses.

"What happened, Lu?" - I entered the kitchen and thanked God that there was only Maria in the kitchen.

"Nothing, what could it be? Just getting the other glasses. Why?"

"Because it is more than obvious that you are in the clouds. Come on, tell me what happened?"

"We kissed, but it was as a way to thank him for getting me away from a very unpleasant person. But it's silly stuff."

I swore to myself never to tell anyone what happened to me, only Parkinson's knows beyond guilt, but I feel I must get it off my chest with someone before I can go crazy all at once and never recover.

"Do you know James?"

"Yes, yes... Norely has great value around here, he was until the other day one of the best negotiators Mauricio had. He always has everything he wants in his hands, without much effort. But lately I've noticed that you are at odds with each o

    Louise After the party was over yesterday, I packed up everything before going to bed. As I entered the room I saw two suitcases, with a few social blouses, jeans and a few bags. There were also long dresses, heels and sneakers. I woke up 15 minutes to 5:00 and fortunately, or unfortunately, today I would be going to meet Mauricio's company and starting my first day of work. I chose a long dress and heels, let my hair down and put on a red lipstick. The anxiety was screaming inside me, but I was looking forward to meeting other people. "Louise! Roberto looked me up and down as if he was seeing a ghost." - Damn, where is Louise? What have you done with her? "What are you looking at? Let's go, I don't want to be late for my first day." - I grabbed his arm and we left the dorm. "Maurício won't be able to come today, that's why I came to get you. I want to warn you first of all that you don't need to be afraid or feel anything like that. You work for Mauricio as his secretary, and do

    Alícia "Alícia! What a surprise to see you here…""Maurício, what a pleasant surprise, I really wanted to see you.""So, I guess it was the perfect time for this, because I really wanted to talk to you, but I'll tell you right now that this son is not mine, and much less yours.""And who can assure you of that? You speak so confidently.""Your exams! Did you think I really didn't know about the things you did behind my back, Alicia?"Your face was still the same! After years I am finally face to face with her for our reckoning, which would not be cheap at all."Check it out.... Who knew you would change so much, you don't even look like the Mauricio I knew a few years ago. You are shameless!""Unfortunately we still know each other, but I came here to ask you something! I don't want you to involve me in your ridiculous plans. After all, who is the father of this creature?""Look here, who do you think you are? You come here insulting our son and then you still want to threaten me, wh

    Louise I never imagined Mauricio would work with wine, at least he has good taste. As they say: people surprise you. In front of the computer desk there were a few suitcases, but I didn't touch any of them. Some messages were for Emma, her account was logged on the computer, she also surprised me, with several model agencies scattered around. Who would have thought it! After three hours of work, it was time for my lunch break, and I was anxious and hungry. "So, how are you adjusting to your first day?" - Roberto appeared at the door, snapping me out of my silly thoughts."I'm going? where can I eat around here?" - The truth was that I had been starving since yesterday, with anxiety screaming I couldn't eat breakfast, and no one was awake yet. "Today you are lucky that I am here and you can go out with me to a restaurant. Do you like Japanese food?""No, I hate Japanese food. I hate everything that is raw and spicy.""I hate it too. So feel free to choose for both of us, because

I love him, but it's hard to raise him alone when his father is right here in front of me.""We'll talk about it later, Alicia, now I really have to go, women don't wait!"James has always been fond of women, this has never been normal. His first victim was Louise, the daughter of the damned Parkinson's. Now Norelyl has the terrible idea of taking him to Mauricio's house and he wants to toast everything he has with those ridiculous girls."Alícia, do you have a minute, dear?" - Norely's unbearable voice reached my ears in a terrible way."Norely, I hope you didn't mean to get involved in mine again. I told you, I don't need any encouragement or opinions. Besides, I can take very good care of my son.""Don't forget that your son is my grandson, and that if you are living in luxury to this day it's because I pay for everything, understand?""Fuck you!" - I brought my finger close to his face, so that he also wouldn't

    EmmaIf I already hated Norely, now I hate him for putting his hand on the head of a rapist son! Louise didn't deserve to go through anything she's been through, but now is not the time for regrets, Mauricio has to act as quickly as possible and get this girl out of here."I really admire all the strength you have. It's not just anyone who can live through everything you're living without letting any details show. You are the epitome of strength, Louise. I really admire you for that."She didn't have the strength to speak, she was too shaken by what she had just told me. She can't go on here or she'll undoubtedly do something bad to herself. "Dress in something that makes you comfortable. Ah, today I remembered you and brought you some things. Try them on and see if you like them.""Wait, Emma. Am I going to have to stay in here alone? He's still out there, and I'm afraid." - Unfortunately James remained too alive in her life, traumatizing her in every possible way."Relax, rest assu

"Is she better?" - Her tone of voice showed her concern."She's better and getting drunk already, I think you better be prepared to help us when we both get there.""Don't you think you're not too young for these things?" - I think he wants a robotic mother, to do his every wish! "No, you're the old man who doesn't make room for fun for once in his life. I don't think grumpiness has anything to do with age. Seeing the difference looking at you and me.""I felt slightly offended and for this very reason I am already telling you in advance that I will be going to have fun together with these two beautiful ladies.""No way... We are doing very well on our own, and we don't need coastguards. Besides, you can't leave your things behind.""Relax Emma, I'll solve all this here in a snap of my finge

    Emma I knew my time had come when I saw her laughing at something my son said. In all my life that Mauricio has been with me I have never seen his eyes shine so brightly when he looked at someone, not even with Alicia it was like that, because I was never wrong when I said that nothing would come of it. I wish he had listened to me and avoided so many scandals. I was already drunk and didn't want to risk the wheel, so I called a cab and went straight home to pack my bags and leave as soon as daybreak.Louise"Looks like it's just the two of us. Can I offer you a drink?""Sure! - We started talking and spent a few minutes talking about how good the drink was, until he stopped and started looking at me in a shameless way, not even disguising it.""You know, I was worried about you. That's why I came here, I wanted to make sure you were okay. There's something about you that's holding me back, Louise." - His hand came to my neck and tucked a lock of my hair behind my ear.

    Maurício She again opted for baggy pants, a bodysuit, and a white blazer on top, a real hottie and no doubt ready to be my lady. "Do you really think she's still going after yesterday? At the very least she must have a heavy hangover…" - Roberto spoke without knowing that she had come with me. "Believe me, I'm not! Excuse the intrusion, but has Emma left yet?" - Louise tried to look away from me, but her gaze kept crossing with mine and that made her nervous. "Aunt Emma left like the wind and no one saw." - Roberto was worried about something, because he was in a terrible mood today. Louise Maurício intimidates me with a simple look and I don't know how to deal with it yet, I think it will be difficult to live under his malicious gaze. Emma had told me she would be leaving today, but I didn't imagine it would be so soon. Mauricio had seen me naked, I'm sure, because I caught him looking at me while I changed. The rocking of the car was making me nauseous and I swear I was hol

    18 years later...Say"Why do you insist on continuing with this madness? If our mother finds out what you are doing, your punishment will be severe and you know it." - Charles was the typical protective brother, but nothing could beat our father, he was terribly terrible and I knew he monitored my every move."Calm down, Charles. Besides, tell me, don't you also find this place interesting? Why do you think they don't let us come here?"My father and mother have always been conservative. Charles and I were in our first year of college, I had chosen chemical engineering and Charles hadn't decided yet, but the annoying thing was that for my father this was normal when it came to Charles, since when the subject was Say here, he was always rude. Today was going to be our week, but I'm alone and Charles is just going to drive me, since I can't even walk by myself, it's just my life.The room we were in was forbidden for us to enter, but today our parents went to settle some things in Los

    LouiseSay was in Julie's arms, I had no anger toward her for what had happened in the past. I trusted Mauricio, so as long as she didn't destroy my children I had no reason to hate her. Lucius was holding Charles in his arms and was softly telling Emma that he was her grandson too, which made me very happy. It's so good when your child is loved, isn't it?"I think we'd better go where everyone else is already." - Maurício says in a loud voice, taking everyone's attention. We had planned to spend this date with our brother and sister after supper, but he knew that this was not what I wanted, so he didn't want Julie to stay too long in our house either."I tried to talk to him, but he interrupted me immediately:""Don't even come, Louise. I don't want any trouble here today, it's only been two three weeks since you gave birth and you can't and I'm not going to let you stress yourself out. Not now!" - When he looked at me without bowing his head, I knew he was serious and didn't fight b

    RobertoIt was like a joint effort inside the hospital. Edgar, Klaus (who was now Maria's daughter's boyfriend), Jason, Emma, Lucius, me, and Clarice. Mauricio was in distress in the delivery room, helping Louise who had gone into labor in the early hours of the morning. We were all waiting for news and I swear I never thought that the feeling of dread would come over me again, but now, I was feeling it all over again. It was the same feeling as when Clarice was having our child, but the difference was that I was inside, and now I am distressed that I don't know how things are going inside. Brian had stayed home with Mary, Clarice was more nervous than all of us put together. Edgar was pacing back and forth, when suddenly Parkinson came through the door, with a worried expression and all awkwardness, he looked as if he had been taking heavy drugs, so thin he was. Before he could come to us, I walked towards him discreetly and he followed me into the other waiting room."What are you d

    Some time later...LouiseEverything was going well. The pregnancy was going well, I was 39 weeks and super heavy. I woke up and decided that I wanted to get out of here. We are living in the same place, and Roberto and Clarice are nearby. Mauricio had just come home from work, and I was in the kitchen preparing dinner with Maria's help."Honey, can you come up in a little while?" - Maria looked at me dubiously and smiled, denying it with her head.After having no trace of him, she began to speak:"I think he is very lucky to have you." - Maria said looking at my belly, which wouldn't stop moving. - "You'd better go, I'll finish the rest. I'll set the table and leave afterwards. I'll be back tomorrow.""Thank you, Maria. You are an angel in my life." - I climbed the stairs slowly because of the discomfort my stomach was causing me.We hadn't planned anything yet, Mauricio has some projects for the future. No more auctions, not from Mauricio and not from any of my ANC members. This gav

    RobertoThe days have been passing quickly, but Louise still hasn't made any statement about her pregnancy. Clarice was devoted body and soul to Brian and I thought this was perfect.Mauricio had been moody lately and this was bothering me. We were on our way home from work when he brought up the subject I had been sworn to secrecy about."Did Louise say something to you?""About what? If she said nothing to Clarice, it wasn't to me." - I lied, but I was terrible at it and he didn't stop looking at me until I stopped walking."You are a bad fucking liar, Roberto. You two are good friends, I know she would tell you secrets. She sees you as a brother!""But you just told her a secret, and you know that you don't share it with anyone. It's no big deal, but if you want to know, ask her yourself.""Are you on her side now?" - Was it immature of you? Yes, but Mauricio was really outraged and he was pissed off when this happened."I'm not on anyone's side, I'm just not going to meddle in any

    MaurícioEveryone was singing Happy Birthday to Brian when I saw someone passing by the garden, the service was short, but I know it wasn't from any ghost. I left without anyone noticing and went to the garden, while everyone was too excited about what was going on inside."I don't want to get in your way, please. I need to talk to you, just listen to me for a few seconds and then you can do what you want with us." - Willy had Edy, Alícia and James' son, by his side.The boy was all bruised and Willy was almost unrecognizable. He had never hurt anyone, had always been against Alicia's atrocities and was only with her because... because he was the only person she could turn to, her family was a bunch of junkies and she had chosen her fate."Alícia committed suicide, it's been three months since this happened and I don't know what to do anymore." - In her eyes there was despair, I know how Louise won't like this, but I can't leave it like this."Okay, what do you need?""Someone to take

    One year later...LouiseThe preparations for Brian's birthday were in full swing. Clarice was more than happy, as were Roberto and all of us. The time on the invitations was 6:00 PM, but Edgar and his darling daughter arrived early, and I would not deny shelter to her who sponsored me, that would be too selfish. He taught me too much, but I couldn't stand her. In the past, Edgar forced Mauricio and his daughter, Julie, to be together. And wherever Mauricio is, she won't mind forcing herself on him, and I knew that a long time ago."Do you know what I want?" - Clarice smiled wickedly as she looked at Julie. - "To teach that bitch not to stare too much at other people's men.""You have no idea how much we both think alike." - I smiled at her and she did the same. Mauricio approached us both with a small box in hand, handing it to Clarice. He wrapped his arms around my waist and kissed my neck."This is our present for our little boy. You know that he is the most precious thing in our f

    ClariceThe feeling that I would die at any moment was still very present. My son was in the incubator in the UV light. My body hurt even under anesthesia. I still hadn't eaten anything, I couldn't even drink water, but now, I was waiting for the nurses to help me up. If not, my blood would not circulate and could lead to a thrombosis, because of the anesthesia. Louise and Roberto's voices were loud, and when they talked, they sounded like they were fighting, and Mauricio was always quiet."Where is my baby?" - Louise came hurriedly to see him, but was disappointed when she didn't see him there. - "I forgot he's tiny. But, how are you feeling? - She sat down next to me and held my hand.""I am fulfilled, sister. I have a wonderful family. I have a strong sister that I have been very proud of ever since I met her, and now, you don't know how much I admire you for all your strength.""Do you know that even though I haven't seen him yet, he is the most important thing I have in my life?

    LouiseWith each sip I took of the different drinks, I felt my stomach turn and the vomit want to come out, until I realized I was overdoing it and needed to sober up for the morning.The last time I looked at the time it was almost two in the morning, but I didn't intend to leave now."I finally found you, do you know how long I have been looking for you?" - I couldn't believe who was standing in front of me! It was Klaus, now in a nice suit, but with the same shoulder-length hair."Oh my God! I'm sorry I left without any warning. How is Miss Margot?""She passed away two weeks ago. But, she knew you were fine and that's why I didn't come after you. But now, I was going home when I saw her hiding here and thought: why not go and talk to her?" - Why did he have to be so handsome? He was very similar to Maurício in some ways, but so different in some."I was sorry." - If it weren't for this man and this woman, I wouldn't be suffering now, I would be dead. - "Sit down, have a few beers
