"Well, I think I will have a busy schedule from now on, maybe we won't be able to meet," she said, trying to avoid the meeting."He will be around for a while, I believe you’ll have time to organize and meet him," Tyler insisted."Yeah, maybe," she replied.Even though she had no intention of seeing him, she wouldn’t say anything at that moment. In the future, when Tyler arranged that meeting, she would come up with an excuse. The last thing she wanted was to see Tácio, especially when her pregnancy would be so apparent.The horses at the racetrack were in position, and the box seats were starting to fill up."Which one did you bet on?" Tyler asked."On none. Once again, I just came to accompany my friend.""Don’t you think it's boring when your friend starts dating? I mean, don’t you think it would be more interesting if, from now on, you went out as a couple?"She understood Tyler's move. She couldn’t deny that he was very handsome and seemed very interesting, yet she wouldn’t risk a

"I'm just saying this because you keep bringing it up," she explained, causing Ethan to reveal a slight victorious smile."It seems like you're getting nervous," he teased."Look, you know what? I came here to try to distract myself, but it seems I'm getting worse than if I had stayed home," she said, standing up from the chair. "I'm leaving. I hope you have a good day," she added to Ethan, walking away.When Kate saw Rafaela leaving quickly, she ran after her friend to understand what had happened. Until that moment, she hadn't noticed Ethan there, as she was too focused on the horses on the track."Hey, where are you going?" Kate asked when she caught up with Rafaela."I'm going home; this isn't the kind of place that distracts me.""Then I'll go with you, just let me say goodbye to the guys," said Kate."No need," Rafaela replied. "You don't have to ruin your day because of me; I just want to go home and sleep a little.""I don't want you to go alone, Rafa," Kate insisted."Don't wo

Realizing the foolishness she had done, she quickly bent down, grabbed the papers and the bag, and ran to the bathroom, leaving Ethan confused. In the bathroom, she started vomiting uncontrollably."Why does this only happen when I’m with him?" she asked herself, looking at her reflection in the mirror, trying to think of the excuse she would give when she returned to the table.As she walked back to where Ethan was waiting for her, she wondered if he could have seen the contents of the paper when it fell or if he would ask what it was about. When she approached the table, he was already staring at her with a confused look, waiting for answers."I’m sorry for leaving like that, I haven’t been feeling very well lately," she said, sitting down in the chair."What’s wrong with you? Those papers that fell on the floor, what do they mean?" he asked seriously."What are you saying about that? Those are personal things," she explained nervously."Was that an ultrasound? Rafaela, are you pregn

Maybe his face would change on the spot, unable to maintain his character, going back to treating her rudely, forcing them to leave right then and there, directly to an abortion clinic, to end what he didn't want at all.She took a deep breath, realizing that it didn't matter how he treated her or pretended to be. In the end, Ethan only thought about his own interests, showing that he didn't care about anything else. Regardless of whether he was good or bad, she could never tell him about her pregnancy, or rather, he could never know about that child. On an impulse, thinking about her future, she picked up the phone and called her mother, who lived in Brazil.She knew she had to share the news with her family, even though she knew they would bombard her with questions.“Hi, dear, you must have read my mind. I was just about to call you,” Sueli, her mother, said on the other end of the line.“Really? Did something happen?” she asked.“Don't worry, nothing happened. I just had a dream ab

Upon hearing what her mother said, her heart skipped a beat."Tácio was here?" she asked, trying to pretend she wasn't shaken by her mother's words."Yes, he showed up here last night," said Sueli. "I was a bit surprised since it had been a long time since he came to the inn.""What did he want?" Rafaela asked, in an anxious tone."He told me that he is going to the US for a seminar or something like that. He said he would be there for a while and asked for your address.""Why does he want my address?" she questioned."I'm not sure... he said he hadn't seen you in a long time and wanted to see you again since you're friends.""Friends..." she whispered."See?" her mother said on the other end of the line. "It seems like you still get upset when I talk about these things.""I'm not upset, Mom," she explained. "I just find it strange that he considers me a friend, even though I confessed my love to him.""I know. And that ungrateful man didn't reciprocate," Sueli grumbled."It's not his

"I'm still processing everything, Mom, because this wasn’t something that was in my plans at the moment," Rafaela said."If it wasn’t in your plans, how did you let this happen?" her mother asked."I protected myself, Mom, I swear to you that I protected myself, but still, it happened," Rafaela responded."And the father of this child, what did he say about it?""I'm not going to tell him.""What do you mean?""We’ll talk about that later too, Mom.""Then I’m left with nothing to talk to you about since all my questions somehow involve this man," her mother replied, frustration evident in her tone."I know it might be strange, but we’ll talk about it another day," Rafaela assured her."So, what do you want to talk about? You’re not thinking about having this child there without any family nearby, are you?""That’s what I want to talk about, Mom. I’ve been thinking about this." Rafaela took a deep breath before continuing. "I’ve tried to visualize how my life will be after this baby is

After finishing talking to her mother and hanging up the phone, Rafaela burst into tears. Surely, this would be the most difficult decision of her life, having to leave her son after his birth. Even though she fully trusted her family, she knew that a piece of her heart would break with that, but she tried to ignore it as long as she could because thinking about it caused her anxiety and suffering.One day at a time, that's how it should be.It was horrible not having control over things. She was now torn between the joy of motherhood and Ethan's reaction, who, if he found out at any moment about the baby, could cause an uproar. She knew nothing about his personal life, except that he had lived abroad for many years and only returned when his father said he was about to retire and wanted his son nearby, to start familiarizing himself with the company, and to become the future CEO.[...]On Monday, arriving very early at the company, she entered the elevator, pressing the number of the

"You will go in my place, Rafaela; you will receive someone for me.""Me?" she questioned, already imagining she would lose her precious lunch hour with Kate."Yes, I can't let my driver go; it would seem disrespectful on my part," he replied. And to not just stop there, I want you to go to a flower shop and buy a beautiful bouquet of flowers.""What specific flower do you want me to buy?" she asked, interested, trying to imagine who this person was that would receive so much of Ethan's attention, to the point of receiving flowers."Does that matter? What flowers do women like the most?" he asked her, and she didn't know how to respond.A woman, she thought."I don't know, women's tastes are different; some like delicate and discreet flowers, others like extravagant and colorful ones.""That seems difficult," Ethan seemed to think. "Tell me, what kind of flowers did you most enjoy receiving?" he asked."I’ve never received flowers," she replied with a certain sadness.Although she was

"I was foolish, wasn’t I?" she asked. "Hey, don’t think that way, I’m not judging you; I just want to understand." "We were talking in the kitchen, and suddenly he got close. It was so fast I couldn’t react." "I can imagine the tension you felt. That man is terribly irresistible. I bet you remembered you were already wet and weren’t afraid of getting caught in the rain again." "I don’t even know what I thought… I think I was in a trance and only woke up when you showed up in the room." "Sorry for interrupting." "It’s no problem; it was the right thing to do." "I’m not trying to meddle in your life or anything, Rafa; you know I’ve always been open with you about everything. But if you want to work with him and keep this pregnancy hidden, you need to stay away." "I know. It won’t happen again." "Your belly isn’t showing yet; it’s hard for him to suspect, but in a while, things won’t be that easy." "You’re right." She fell silent. Kate noticed her friend was quieter

It was Saturday morning, already past nine. Kate got out of the taxi after saying goodbye to Robert, with a taste of wanting more. They had planned to spend the day together, but unfortunately, a last-minute call made him change his plans.Robert was a cardiologist personally overseeing a patient who needed a heart transplant. This morning, he received a call saying that there was a compatible donor for his patient, so he needed to be there immediately.As much as she wanted to be with the man she liked, she was feeling happy, on the other hand, because she could keep Rafaela company, who had spent the night alone at home. Even though she didn’t say much, she was very worried about her friend, but she knew she couldn’t interfere in the decisions she made; she just had to support her in whatever she needed.She even agreed with the idea of not telling Ethan about the child; after all, he wouldn’t accept that child in any way. But what bothered her was knowing that Rafa would leave the b

"Hope you change your mind someday.""What would my change of idea affect in your life, Rafaela?" he asked. "Bringing a child into this world to suffer is worse than wishing they didn’t exist.""It depends on how you take care of them.""Enough!" he raised his voice. "You can ask me anything, but not about this."It was clear that Ethan didn't like to talk about this; something seemed to deeply trouble him."Sorry," she apologized."I'm the one who should apologize," he said. "I just don't like discussing it.""I promise I’ll never bring it up again," she swallowed hard."Don't think I’m a bad person, Rafaela. You just need to know that I’d never be fit to be anyone's father."That revelation gave her chills, filling her with questions. Why did Ethan think that way?"I believe you have your reasons, and I’ll respect that," was all she could manage to say.He looked at her and realized how awkward he had made her feel. Then he stood up and came closer to her."There are things that can’

It was the last thing she could imagine, of all the ways she thought her Friday night might end, having her boss sitting on her living room sofa was the very last scenario she would have envisioned.Her apartment's doorbell rang, and she immediately went to answer. It was the delivery guy with the pizza she had ordered."Thank you very much," she thanked the man, giving him a tip.Closing the door, she took everything to the kitchen and started setting the plates. While waiting for her order, she had prepared some juice.She was setting the table when Ethan walked into the kitchen."Your kitchen isn’t hard to find," he said, reminding her of his apartment's kitchen."Good thing you didn’t have to open any wrong doors," she joked."I wouldn’t mind if I opened a door and saw the same view you had at my place."Her face flushed in seconds. How did he have the nerve to say that?"Grab a slice of pizza, it’s still hot," she turned her back to him so he wouldn’t see her embarrassed expressio

"I don't think that's the right question to ask now," he said, touching his eye and noticing blood on his fingertip. "Come with me," she said, worried about her boss. Ethan followed her to her apartment. Once they entered her home, she asked him to sit on the sofa, saying she’d get the first-aid kit. While looking for the kit in the bathroom, she tried to calm herself, considering what had just happened. Finding the first-aid kit box, she took a deep breath and returned to the living room, finding Ethan standing in front of the shelf where the framed photo of her and Tácio was placed. "Come here, let me see how the cut is," she requested. He turned and walked over to her, sitting on the sofa. "Your boyfriend seems violent," he said. "He's not my boyfriend," she revealed. "No?" He looked surprised. "What are you doing here?" she changed the subject. "I was just passing by when I saw him grabbing your arm." She remained silent as she started cleaning the small wound

Seeing once again that Tácio was getting carried away, she stepped away."I’m going inside; I think you should go back to your place," said Rafaela, turning to leave."Rafa, why are you acting like I’m a stranger to you?" he asked."And why are you acting like you can control or have an opinion about my life? Do you realize what you just said?""I only want the best for you. I don’t see good intentions in that man’s eyes, and I feel like if you stay there, you’ll end up getting hurt.""It’s none of your business what happens to me; you can’t just show up here and talk about someone you don’t even know.""Why are you defending him again?" he asked nervously."But I’m not. It’s you who’s making your own assumptions.""Do you think I’d say anything if I didn’t notice what was going on?""Then tell me, Tácio, what’s going on?" she got closer to him. She knew that Tácio was a well of inconvenience sometimes, and saying whatever was on his mind was quite common."I think you could get hurt b

"I am enjoying it. And you should too, when a guy like that shows up for you. Don’t waste your time overthinking. Girl, we live in downtown Manhattan, we have good jobs, we didn’t buy apartments here to marry just anyone.""Wow, I didn’t know you had such a gold-digging side.""It’s not gold-digging; it’s investment," she joked. "Look, I’m going to get ready because I’m going out with Robert, so don’t expect me to sleep here.""No problem, I’ll embrace my solitude and turn it into serenity."Kate left the living room, and a few hours later, she emerged from her room with her red hair brushed and makeup perfectly done for the night."Robert is waiting for me outside. See you later, girl. Take care." Kate left, leaving her alone.Rafa liked what was happening with her friend, but at the same time, she felt that this time of year was terrible for staying home alone. Christmas was almost here, and the city was beginning to get busier. Rafa spent every New Year on Fifth Avenue, close to her

It was already night when Rafa was sitting on the sofa in her apartment's living room. With the remote in her hand, she was flipping through channels, searching for something interesting to distract herself. Her mind was racing, thinking only about what Tácio Duarte had asked her.How dare he ask that question? Even though they had already been very close these years, it didn’t justify asking something like that. What kind of person did he think she had become? This was just another confirmation that he also couldn’t find out about her pregnancy. If he knew the child she was carrying was Ethan’s, he would definitely give her a moral lecture, as if he were the voice of reason. That was his flaw, thinking he could weigh in on everyone’s life just because he thought he had the right to do so. The apartment door opened, and in came Kate, as always, looking cheerful. Unlike Rafa's situation, Kate’s love life seemed like a bed of roses. "Why do I feel like you're a bit restless?" K

"I even tried to answer no, but you ended up showing up at the right moment. Really, I think they got the impression we were choosing rings for ourselves." "Can I be honest with you, Rafa?" he asked seriously. "You know you can." "I did it on purpose, wanting them both to think that." He revealed. "I think his fiancée is jealous of you. Thinking you’re dating someone else might make that feeling go away." "I don’t think Eva feels that way," she replied, laughing. Eva was beautiful; she looked like the model Gisele Bündchen in her younger years. Why would she feel jealous of someone like her, someone with such an ordinary appearance? "Trust me, Rafa, some people are just like that," he insisted. "And as for your boss, the fact that he couldn't take his eyes off you while we were choosing rings made me a bit uneasy." "I think you’re just catching wind." "How long have you been working for him, Rafa?" he asked, intrigued. "It’s almost a month, why?" "Has he ever disre
