Nora
“I did not fall, let me be clear to you. I know he’s paying you, I can smell it. But I want to make it clear that I DID NOT FALL. DON’T ever insult my intelligence. Did you understand? He beat me and then locked me in a basement for days. With nothing, no medicine, only water, nothing! And you tell me that he brought me immediately after I fell? And above all, was he worried? I don’t want to see you here, I want another doctor. Did you hear me? After exposing the injustice I suffered, I closed my eyes and sobbed silently. They were all bought. I know it’s useless to say something, no one would do anything to help anyway. He had a lot of power and influence and I had nothing.
“Calm down, Nora, don’t get upset. We are going to leave, and you will not see us again, but calm down, you are still not well, please.” I didn’t bother answering them, I just stayed in bed with my eyes closed. I heard when they closed the door after leaving. Fortun

The doctor Nora So, what I wanted to know was how long would the doctor keep me here. Then, I asked the nurse, “Can you tell me how long you plan to leave me here?” The nurse grabbed the datasheet that was beside my bed and answered. “Of course, Nora, your doctor wants you to stay here for one more week. Due to the damage you suffered, he considered that possibility. The best course of action is to keep a close eye on you.” Okay, I’ll consider it my holiday for one week. I thanked her and said I was hungry and wanted to eat something. She said that the menu would be brought to me in a moment. So I preyed on that time to try to stand up. Although I’m not sure what condition my body is in, I’m eager to stretch. Tentatively, I sat up, luckily it didn’t hurt that much. I could see with satisfaction that I was already improving. I put my feet down and tried to stand up. Then, I held onto the bed rail and managed to put my feet on the floor. Furthermore, I don’t kn

The visit Nora The nurse hesitated but left the room without saying anything. The Dr returned his eyes to me and saw my eyes. “You have been here, since you arrived, almost seven days. I read your report and the injuries do not coincide with a fall, as was established in the beginning. This is rather a case of domestic abuse, I can tell. ” My face said it all because he stopped and patted my hand. Then he continued. “I know my colleagues filled out the report, thanks to your husband’s insistence. But we know that is not so. I want to ask you something.” Staring into my eyes, he continued. “Do you want me to report this incident as domestic violence? You can trust me, I won’t do anything you don’t want.” Oh! My eyes started to fill with tears. It was so long ago that I had received someone’s support. And with a choppy voice, I replied, “Thank you, but I don’t want to put your life at risk. And even if you fill out the report and take it to the police, no one w

Back to him again Nora After assimilating what he told me, I put it on with disgust. His coat smelled like him, I didn’t want his scent on my skin. But I remembered the doctor’s words. And convinced myself that later I would have time and health to fight him. Erik continued to watch me from where I was. I could feel his gaze. But fortunately, the nurse entered with the wheelchair, cutting off the tension. She pulled it closer to me and was about to help me up when Erik told her that he would do it. Why? It’s the only thing I could think of. I didn’t want his hands near me. Those same hands caused me so much damage and pain. When he came over to help me up, I stepped forward and immediately sat in the wheelchair. I went to the nurse and told her. “I’m ready.” She saw us nervous, not knowing what to do. But Erik, without taking her into account. Took the handles of the wheelchair and pushed me towards the door. We left the hospital in complete silence until we

Finishing my sentence Nora After I refused to kiss him, he rested his forehead against my forehead and squeezed the back of my neck. After a few seconds, he sat up and said no more. Within five minutes, we had arrived. As soon as Thomas parked the car in the driveway, he got out to open the door for us. After Erik got out and grabbed my hand, I had no choice but to follow him and let him help me. The door of the house opened, and Rosa came out to greet us. When she saw me, she grabbed my hand and said, “Oh! I’m glad you’re feeling better now, Nora. Erik was so worried about you.” Her gaze hardened and she continued. “I want to give you some advice - don’t let this happen again. You have to change your attitude. A marriage cannot go on like this. And it is your responsibility to bring peace and happiness into this house.” “Now it’s not the time for that, Mother.” Rosa smiled at her son and changed her expression completely. “Erik, you are right, it isn’t my jo

Claudia Nora “I don’t have to tell you that my business partners are very dangerous people. And that anything that comes out of your mouth can put you at risk. So you are warned, go, you have half an hour to be ready.” In complete silence, I continued on my way, until I left that place. I felt, at that moment, that I could breathe again. I was going upstairs and came face to face with my husband’s mistress. She was leaving the room that she and my husband share. I felt like the veins in my eyes jumped. The hatred I felt towards this pair was poisoning my heart more than it already was. But I had to swallow it and feign indifference. She jumps with fright when she sees me. I was sure she wasn’t expecting me around. The unpleasant woman was dressed in almost nothing. Seeing her body and imagining them together made my stomach turn. But when I saw her standing there, my mind began to work. The only thing I could lose now was my life. So I smiled at her tenderly,

The bedroom talk Nora I wanted to call Thomas, to let him know that I had already come out. But he was outside the place waiting for me. He told me to follow him. We walked to the car and headed in the direction of Erik’s house. Upon arrival, he carried all my purchases up to my room and I followed him. He put the things down on the floor and left, not without saying goodnight to me before leaving. I didn’t bother with the things on the floor, and I went to my wardrobe and took out my pyjamas. But first, I had to have a bath, since I had days without one. Then I filled the bathtub with different fragrances. After I waited for it to be full, I went in. I had a great time there until the water got cold, and I was forced to leave. With one towel, I wrapped my head, and with the other, I dried my body. But I realized that I had forgotten my pyjamas on the bed, so I had to go out like this. When I went to bed to find my clothes, I dried myself perfectly, and when

Rosa Nora The next morning, I woke up with pain in my body, in my lower region to be precise. I got out of bed and went to the bathroom. I started looking in the cabinet for some aspirin or paracetamol. After searching for a while, I didn’t find anything. I decided that I would go for a run anyway, as has been my habit. A little muscle pain wouldn’t stop me now. I dressed in my sportswear and left my room. Going downstairs, and to my horror, I ran into Rosa. I got the impression that she was waiting for me. The last time I saw her, she didn’t have enough time to tell me all the things that were on her mind. Shit! I have to be very careful how I handle her. Because of whatever complaints she has about me, Erik would retaliate against me. I put on my most believable smile and walked over to her. “Good morning, Rosa.” I headed for the door, hurrying my steps, hoping to avoid her. But she anticipated my action and stepped in front of me. She also faked a smile, a

The party Nora I took a step forward and leaned against the door frame. They hadn’t noticed my presence yet, so I cleared my throat to get their attention. They both turned to see me, surprised to find them together. Erik stepped back, putting distance between himself and Claudia. What a stupid and unnecessary action. “No please, don’t bother. I was passing, and by accident, I heard what you were talking about.” I walked over to the coffee pot and poured myself a cup of coffee. Then, I turned to see them and offered them a friendly smile. Not only that, but I could see their looks of mistrust. I turned to Erik and said, “I have no problem with Claudia coming with us. In fact, I think it would be an excellent idea. She might as well keep me company. You know how boring those parties are.” I shrugged my shoulders, not giving importance to the matter, and turned around and left that place. My skin was already starting to itch from just being in front of them. I

For you, my love Nora "So Vinci's idea was perfect, to finish him in front of you. But I'm curious, Hilda. What did you think when your trusted employee, Philips, appeared in this same cell with a knife in hand? Followed by his daughter, who, by the way, was carrying a bigger one. Rita, that's her name, in case you don't remember. She is another woman whose life you destroyed. Do you remember, Hilda? Gonzalo's terrified face? When the two of them approached him and started stabbing him everywhere? I think he was hit several times in the head, and that, Hilda, was entertaining. Do you also remember how his body, still alive, bled at your feet? and you did nothing? That must have hurt, but you deserve it. But that's enough talk for now, as I told you at the beginning, I have a very busy day. Oh! Didn't I tell you? I'm having a party, and I invited a lot of people. The guys from the rescue centre, Ruth, Vinci, and of course my family, my parents, Rosa, Erik, and my baby.” I looked at

My last talk to you Nora Upon entering the building, we immediately took the elevator. My destination is the basement. When the doors opened, another guard received us. He already had what I needed ready. First, he handed me a mask, and immediately, I put it on. The smell of this place is disgusting. I think I'll have to tell Erik to do a deep cleaning. It is not healthy for our staff to be in these conditions, even if they are used to it. “Madame, please follow me.” Luis, is always so kind. “Thank you, this will be my last visit, and I sincerely hope I never have to return.” “Yes, Mrs. Costa, this place is not for you. Your eyes should never have seen all this.” I agree, but circumstances brought me to this point in my life, where I couldn't help it. “Luis, thank you very much. You are right in saying that this is not for me, but I am obliged. I have a promise to keep, and this is the only way.” I followed Luis down the corridor to the cells. He was carrying the suitcase with the

Time to fulfil my promise Nora Ten months have passed since the attack, and my body is completely recovered. I only carry with me the scars that the knife left me. Those same scars that I will be able to remove later. I don't want anything to remind me of anything that had happened. “Where is it, mommy?” “Oh! My love, we are almost there.” My baby has grown so much. He already speaks and understands many things perfectly. “Look at that one,” I pointed my finger at the crypt that was filled with flowers. My baby let go of my hand and ran towards I pointed with a bouquet of flowers in his hand. He turned to see if I had already arrived so that together, we will place the flowers on his grave. “Tell Daddy Edward what you did this week in the classroom. Your teacher told me that you were teasing a girl

My parent's truthNoraErik shook his head, letting us know how ridiculous this conversation was. “OK, I better hurry,” Rosa said, walking towards the kitchen. The three of us stayed in the room, enjoying this moment, this peace. I would not change this for anything. But after a while, Erik looked at me carefully. I knew he wanted to tell me something, but apparently, it was going to be a difficult subject, because he was struggling with himself. “What is Erik? Tell me at once.” He nodded his head and said, “Yesterday, I talked to your dad.” No, not that. I was about to tell him that I did not want to know anything about him, when Erik hardened his gaze and, with authority in his voice, he stopped me. “No, Nora, listen to me this time. And I don't want you to speak until I finish. Later, you can tell me wh

When I opened my eyesNoraA week ago, I woke up after I almost lost my life at the hands of that monster. Fortunately, Erik arrived in time to save our lives. If the man had gone first for my baby or Rosa, Oh! I don't want to think about it any more, because it would have been devastating. That day, when I opened my eyes, Erik's face was the first thing I see. Not only did he look bad, but he also smelled bad. That was what I first said to him when I saw him. “Eric, you look like a homeless man. What has happened to you?” He widened my eyes in surprise as he gently grabbed my hand. The whole of my body ached. I didn't know how long had passed since I fell unconscious. Then he smiled at me and said, “welcome, my love, it was time for you to wake up.”Even though I can now get ou

DieNoraThe man nodded his head and smiled slightly. Then he raised his head, looking at the ceiling as if he were remembering something. And then he returned his gaze to me, saying. “Laura, you knew her very well. She was one of your husband's lovers.” What that man told me surprised me even more. But I didn't say anything and just waited for him to continue. “She was one of the most beautiful women in the country, and she had to be the one chosen to go undercover. Only someone this beautiful would be able to attract the attention of one of the most wanted criminals in the country. Of course, we couldn't just come and arrest him out of nowhere. We needed evidence, and Laura was perfect for this. She gathered all kinds of evidence for his arrest. But we failed her. All her efforts, and for what? HA! FOR NOTHING”
Nora and Erik; When we were nothing Chapter 87
And who is Laura?NoraNodding my head, I turned around and opened the door carefully, closing it behind me. With what I'm going to do, I hope Rosa and my baby would have enough time to escape. With every step I took, I felt my legs shaking, because I was walking towards my death. My eyes searched for something that could help me defend myself, but I found nothing. The hallway was empty. My only hope was to go to the kitchen and grab a knife or something to knock him out. I stepped into the living room and, without making a sound, leaned out to see if I could see the man. I looked everywhere, but I couldn’t see him. That made me tremble. Where is he? The only way I could protect myself was to go into the kitchen and get a weapon. So I passed through the room and entered it. After opening the door a bit, I looked inside. The place was empty,

The intruderNora"Erik, are you there?” I knocked on his office door several times, but no one answered. Where have they gone? Nor do I see anyone from the Vinci group. Have they already left, and without telling me anything? I turned around and walked to Rosa's room. She was taking care of my baby while I was preparing his bottle of milk. I'm sure she will know if they have already left. I was very nervous. Erik told me that he would attack Gonzalo soon, but nothing else. Outside Rosa's room, I opened the door and walked in. She was playing with Edward on the bed. Just seeing my baby made my heart fill with pride. He was growing up so fast, and he was getting even more beautiful than he already was.“Rosa, I can't find Erik anywhere. Neither of Vinci's people. Do you think they have already left without a warning?” Rosa stopped playing with Edward and turned to see me. But I was surprised by the expression she was showing me. She was so serious all of a sudden that I didn't know how

Something is wrong Erik That reminded me of Nora. She can finally have her revenge together with all of us. So I grabbed the phone and dialled her number. I was nervous for some reason. I wanted to get home as soon as possible. Leaving them alone wasn’t a good idea, but there was no other choice. The good thing is that there was a security team guarding the property. The phone rang several times, but no one answered it. I tried again, thinking that she was in the kitchen and would have left it in the room. So I decided to dial my mom, she never fails to answer my calls. I called over and over again, but nothing. I started to feel more anxious. This was not good, I need someone to answer me. “Raul, contact Daniel. I need his report immediately.” “Yes, Boss.” Raul got down to business, and after a few tries, he turned to me and shook his head. At that moment, I felt a punch in my gut. It can't be, this was not right. So I said to the driver, “Go as fast as possible, I need to get hom
