Perfect Lie The new house
+ The hours I've spent at the clinic have made exhaustion take over my life, but little by little, I've regained my voice. Gisela's parents have taken the liberty of paying for the clinic and taking me to a hotel I don't want to enter, but I can't be rude and reject all the good they have done. It's hard to process the idea that I have a baby inside me, one that feels what I feel, a baby that needs me to be strong and not fall apart when that damn jerk shows up in front of me. I don't want to see him, I don't want to allow him to humiliate me, I can't let him trample on me. Adal hurt me, and for many, it's a drama that I should forget, but those who think that have surely not been in my shoes. Heavens, that scene keeps playing in my head over and over again, sometimes I wish there was some remedy to forget it. Lucero is right in saying that this baby will always remind me of what his father did to me, but... I am not heartless enough to give it up for adoption or have an abortion
Last Updated : 2023-05-01Perfect Lie Fears of leaving me with your parents
+ It's already dawn and from the brightness I can deduce that it's five in the morning and... I haven't slept at all! I've just been admiring the woman next to me, yes, the one who's using my arm as her soft and comfortable pillow. She's a feisty one, but since she'll be leaving in a couple of hours, I have no choice but to endure the discomfort for a little while longer. I spent two hours pleading with her to calm down, assuring her that she wasn't going to die just because she was traveling and that it would be better for us to set aside our sadness and enjoy the night. She wasn't very convinced, but eventually agreed because she says I'm the type of person who doesn't give up until I get what I want, and that's true because I want her to leave with the peace her heart needs. It's clear to me that she has to give something to get what she wants. My temporary job is to encourage her, which I do gladly, although I wish she would stay, it's better that she goes. I won't deny that t

"Adal, may I know why you haven't taken off that serious men's clothing? You have to wear appropriate clothing to enter the pool." I snap out of my thoughts at the sound of my grandmother's bustling voice. She continues trying to help me, wanting me to see reason and stay with the family to witness all that I am missing. "Grandma, don't ask for too much. This is what you can expect from me," I run my hand through my hair and she smiles. "But I don't see a problem with me dressing like this." "No, let's go to your room and while you're at it, lend some clothes to Alfonso. I don't want to see both of you looking like clowns, with your clothing out of place." "Mum, before you take the two little ones to the room, I want you to come with me because our friend Ana wants to come," and boom, my mother has saved me from my grandmother's clutches. "I'll wait here, Grandma," I say in a joking tone. "No, both of us need to go because I need you to choose the right swimsuit, and you can tal

Now that I remember, Alfonso knows a part of why I went to Spain, but not with the intention of exposing the girl he is in love with. I feel sorry for him, but he has to know, and I won't stay silent. Everyone blames me for being a coward and immature for not wanting to continue with the marriage, fine. I look away and tell him that the love of his life is not what he thinks, as she made sure Gisela didn't take her birth control pills and that's why she got pregnant. He burst out laughing and told me that this lie won't make him stop loving her. I knew he would say that! Well, that's when I reveal my ace in the hole, telling him to confront Lucero and that the pill incident was true, and that the person who told me wasn't a stranger and certainly didn't make it up. I started telling him how I found out and how things were unfolding. I didn't want to believe it either, and that's why I got on the first plane. "The worst part is that I saw Gisela and didn't have the guts to tell her
Last Updated : 2023-05-01Perfect Lie After three years
+GISELA+ The world or universe is too unjust. I met the man who completely turned my life around at the least opportune time. He adored my body, caressed my skin, and ignited a passion in me that I'll never forget. I enjoyed the freedom of exploring every inch of him. Hmm… My story with Adal ended when he found out about my pregnancy, and that I was carrying his child within me. I still remember him because he's not a man you forget overnight. "I always knew the man I love is a man of many women, not a poor man trying to cheat on his friend, girlfriend, lover, or wife." It's been three years since I left Berlin, and now I'm back as one of the managers of Lucero's companies. During these years, I've worked hard to learn and earn my place in the company, as well as in their hearts. I'm the one they trust and expect to face my fears. It's a challenge because it's not easy to work with Adal's company. Do I still love him? For years, I buried that love, even though my little one always

"I'm sorry, I just threatened her that if she didn't let me see you, I would abandon the whole project with the company." "Fine, it's five minutes and you better hurry, because time is valuable to me." "Gisela, I'm sorry..." "No... No, I want to know what you're sorry for," I shake my head, my gaze fixed on hers, without any emotion and blink you have three minutes left, and you shouldn't waste it with personal matters." "I want to join the project, but only if you're the one leading it. I don't care about what Lucero is talking about right now and..." he falls silent as he realizes he's saying too much. "Yes, if you want me on your team, you should work with me. I want you and no one else to handle my contract." "Wait... Wait... Wait, does that mean you accept the project without even seeing it as long as I present it to you?" "No, no... Don't say that," he approaches, his distressed look making me lower my guard, but I remember that I have a son whom he despises and again, I r

"Bravo, bravo, bravo..." I return to my harsh reality upon seeing the person I was hoping to be in front of me. "You guys got up early." Lucero enters, and I feel a relief in my heart, now I feel protected. "How good that you two friends are still friends, and officially I am your client. Well, it's time for me to go, my secretary will call you to meet us, as we must celebrate." What? This man is completely crazy. "I don't think I can, I have many things to do and if you want to celebrate you can go with Lucero..." "No, this deal is supposed to be for the two of us, don't make me regret it." "It's a threat," I frown. "You can take it as you like, just that I don't accept a no for an answer. Perfect! I'll be waiting for you, have a good day." He stood up, leaving me with the word in my mouth, I wanted to refuse at that moment, but Lucero prevents me by saying that we will be there without fail, but that he should also not forget to fulfill the deal that the other clients come t
Last Updated : 2023-05-01Perfect Lie Where is my son?
+ The room emanates a majestic presence that completely calms my being. The dinner wasn't at a restaurant as he had mentioned to us, in fact, the celebration was at his house. As we were leaving the house, Lucero mentioned to me that the dinner would be at the same Italian restaurant where we had dinner before, but things changed when we were a few meters away from the restaurant. Lucero received a call that gave her the specific address we were supposed to go to. He was playing with me, pulling my leg because the meeting was supposed to be at the restaurant, not his house. What was he up to? I was burning with anger at that moment, canceling everything because he was changing the plans. However, I had to swallow my rage because Lucero insisted that no matter where it was, we had to attend, and not to worry, as everything was supposed to be business. She insists that Adal's approach is purely business, but my being is sure that he has other intentions. It's not because I'm crazy,

Perfect Lie Epilogue
+ Five months later... "My love, we will soon reach our destination and I want you to do something for me. I want you to put on this blindfold and not ask why," the car comes to a stop, my eyes open wide, and a crazy smile appears on my face. I was expecting something like this, but not so soon. I had no choice but to agree, so I grabbed the cloth and obediently covered my eyes like a little girl. Ha ha ha, suddenly it made me laugh. Why is my beloved not so mysterious or someone who can pretend? I can detect his nervousness from here and his desire to surprise me. "Okay, but I warn you that sometimes things don't go as planned." Aaaah, inside, I want to scream with joy. I am a happy woman who just wants to enjoy all the wonderful things her husband is giving her. After I put on the blindfold, Adal keeps driving. I'm nervous, lots of things are going through my head, and I don't know which one of them will come true. After a few minutes, Adal tells me that we have arrived at ou
Perfect Lie Our child is the most precious thing we have
+ This must be a headache! For the first time, I saw my son cry in pain. As I was leaving work, I received a call informing me that my son had been admitted to the hospital and was being attended to by a pediatrician. I demanded to know what was going on and if Gisela was aware. My mother, crying, responded, "She's asleep. We didn't want to worry her, especially after seeing that he couldn't walk." I didn't say a word about the issue when I asked for the address; I just knew I had to be with my son. Within minutes, I arrived at the clinic, my breathing rapid and my heart racing. Seeing my little one only made me more desperate, as my mother's statement about his fever was still true. My child was suffering, and they weren't doing anything about it. All we could do was wait. Eventually, I picked up my baby and left the place. They weren't attending to him as they should have been. My mother screamed after me as I left, but I couldn't take it anymore. I told her that my son wouldn't
Perfect Lie Say you love me
+ADAL+ I am disappointed. Last night was an unforgettable moment. We even promised to try again, but when I woke up, she wasn't by my side. She had left. I panicked and tried to contact her, but I couldn't find my phone anywhere. I remember locking myself in the shower for half an hour, thinking about what to do, or what was going through Gisela's mind. She had given me the opportunity I had been waiting for, and now my fear is that she will regret it. I decided to get out of the shower, get ready, and leave my room. I had to get out of those four walls before I went crazy. Part of me knew I had to find her and seize the opportunity I had been given. Just as I was about to leave the house, I ran into my mother. She told me that my phone had been taken by the person I was desperately trying to reach, and if I intended to find her, I should call my number or look for Lucero, the person who had been helping me without any commitment. My mother said, "run," and I flew. It wasn't long b
Perfect Lie The alcoholic girl
"No, I hope I didn't interrupt your sleep," my words are sincere, but his reaction is nothing - no emotion on his face, he's furious. Years may have passed, but I remember perfectly when his serious face means he's ready to kill, not to think. "I'll just have this little coffee, and then I'll leave, I have a few things to do at home." "I think we should talk first before you go," he says after sitting next to me. "Since it seems you're having trouble remembering, I want to tell you that I didn't like that you drank and let yourself get careless. Do you know what would have happened if I hadn't arrived on time?" I gulp, panic takes over me, I don't know what to say, and I have no arguments to refuse. Where were the girls? I'm sure he's lying, he just wants to scare me into submission. No, he's wrong if he thinks I'll reward him. "To be honest, I don't remember anything, and if we're going to talk about what happened yesterday, it's better if Lucero and Dolores are present. They kno
Perfect Lie I don't remember anything
+ "Wait for me, don't go alone," I hear Dolores shout behind me. She wants to dance with me, and I hope the waiter doesn't bring the margaritas right now. God, I need those margaritas! "Baby, don't leave me alone," and boom, Lucero joins us. This is good because now we're really enjoying the night. We're the three friends, not rivals that everyone expects. Never ever forget this moment. Lucero and Dolores are two important pieces for my heart and mind. "Please wait for me here, I'll be quick in the restroom, you know, so the others can get in," I leave them there. I want to dance with them, but my bladder is the most important thing right now. I walked down a narrow hallway and reached the restroom, which was so bright that a pulse of pain shot from my eyes to the back of my head. When I arrived at the stall, I fixed my hair and shouted to the sky because it's empty and all the stalls are available for me. Ha, how funny, I just need one. After a couple of minutes of relieving my
Perfect Lie Girls' night out!
"Hey, you're not supposed to drink it like that," shouted Lucero, trying to snatch the margarita glass from me. As she made the attempt, I tilted the glass further, taking advantage of its chilliness. "You have no remedy, dude. Please bring three margaritas. She needs more than two. Oops, sorry. She's already on her second one, and it's all because she wants to act tough and drink vodka when she can't handle it." "Lucero!" I complained, finishing the last drop of margarita, and placing the glass aside to pick up the next one. "You're right. I'm not a drinker, and if you know me well, you know my throat is burning." And I went for the second margarita, I'm sorry for Dolores, but my throat is on fire. No! This can't be happening. My tongue is... "You're already lost, woman. Nobody understands what you were talking about." That's it. I'm already feeling dizzy, but it's all because I took the two margarita glasses from Lucero. I thought things would be different this time, that becaus
Perfect Lie extreme madness
+ The night bears witness to our madness, and it wasn't long before Lucero showed up. The three of us decided to leave the house together, of course, only if the babysitter stays with my baby. And since Lucero is one of those who swears that everything will be fine, Dolores and I came to accompany her to the first bar we found, not those shady ones as Lucero would say. She has that touch of superiority, which is normal, that's how she was raised. For me, it's the third time I've been to this kind of place, and I think it will be the first time I take any drink with alcohol. At this moment, each of us will share our story; what troubles and saddens us. We've come here to drown our sorrows. The music in the bar is completely soft, not the kind where you have to shout to be heard. The club has low lighting, deafening and full of contorted bodies: on the dance floor, in the hallways, against the bar. A DJ mixed music on a small stage, and posters plastered all over the front promised t
Perfect Lie I need an opportunity
+ In the end, Adal got his way. The spoiled son of his father took us home because he said I was nervous and not in condition to drive. At first, I objected, but Dolores jumped on board to become friends with Adal. After Adal realized there was nothing he could do, he blackmailed me with the words, "Our son is waiting for you at home." He was being sly, as he brought my baby into our fight. I don't want him involved in my life anymore. I don't need him. Now that I'm home, I bite my tongue with the intention of staying quiet. I watch as my son plays with that man, because Gerald ate all the dinner the nanny prepared. Dolores approaches me and tells me I need to change my attitude. Whatever that man did in the past, it's better to leave it behind because time keeps moving forward, it doesn't stop or go back. Now she's becoming Adal's savior and defender. No, that man doesn't need anyone to intervene, he can defend himself just fine. "Mrs. Gisela, the child needs to shower, but..."
Perfect Lie She was the only one who was with me
"No, I need them to leave," I replied angrily, "understand for once that I need to be alone." "Damn..." he muttered, and I felt like opening the door, "I don't know what happened to make you shut yourself in, but let me tell you one thing, woman, if you don't come out now, we're not leaving and neither are the employees because it's not fair for you to stay and for them to go to sleep." That man is insane, I had no choice but to open the door. I stumbled and half said that both of them were insane. "Hey, what happened to you?" Dolores comes to me with open arms, "why didn't you call me?" I stopped, a lump formed in my throat, and I burst into tears as I felt her arms around me. Between sobs, I told her that I was to blame for other people making bad decisions. "No, that's not true. We are all responsible for our actions, and you didn't put a knife to that person's throat to make them mess up, like we do with butter on bread." I didn't do it with a knife, but in a way, I pushed h
