After pondering for a long time what had just happened, Edan turned to go after Alma.Now, he felt guilty for the way he took it, in such an impetuous, abrupt, and unforeseen way, but he never thought about that possibility and still, it seemed incredible to him.She was a virgin! Being such a beautiful, sweet, intelligent, and kind woman, how come no man had touched her?While Alma practically ran into the room, looking for some clothes to cover herself, dead with embarrassment. How was it that she had allowed things to go this far?And it is that, for the first time in her life, she felt something like that for a man and it is not that she had never dated a boy before, if she dated a couple of times, but between her studies, her work, and her responsibilities, she did not have time to reach something more.Her boyfriends would end up leaving her before they even had a chance to touch her, because she never had time for them.Edan entered the room and found Alma dressed in simple paj
Edan got up and approached Olga, whispering something in her ear, immediately, the lady called Alma's brothers to offer them a movie and hot chocolate in another room and took them away.Alma watched as her brothers walked away, still standing in the doorway, not understanding what was happening, while Edan approached at a determined pace.The woman pushed Alma away, getting her out of her way, staring at Edan and Alma heard clearly as he muttered her name.“Vivian. Edan called her.Reality is harsh and it always hits when you least expect it.This surprise visit was a hard blow for Edan and Alma.All weekend, Edan had completely forgotten about Vivian.Now that she was there, facing both of them, Edan knew that she wouldn't bring anything good, so, for the moment and for Alma's well-being, all he could do was pretend.At the same time, Alma's chest heaved as she heard Edan pronounce the woman's name, so it wasn't a mistake, he really knew her.“Edan! Can you explain to me why the I j
The door rang and Edan let go of the beast in his arms."That careerist!" How did you allow me to talk to me like that, Edan?! I don't tolerate it; I don't tolerate it! Vivian continued to shout, red with rage and disheveled."ENOUGH IS ENOUGH, VIVIAN!" Edan shouted, letting go of the anger he had been enduring for a long time. Vivian froze, never before, in any of her outbursts, had Edan spoken to her like that. "You and I need to talk, but not now, pour yourself a drink, sit down, calm down, and you'd better wait for me here!" Edan made his way to the door, but stopped before he got out. "And I don't want another show when I get back!" The door rang again, Edan was gone.Vivian threw herself on the couch, stunned. He swallowed thickly, those words "We need to talk" from Edan, sounded like a breakup... But she wouldn't allow it, she wouldn't let Edan leave her for a little thing, like that Soul.It was evident that this woman was far below her, how could Edan leave her for someone so
Everyone was serious and stressed, they had been in that office for an hour and still couldn't come to an agreement."I said it, I want you to specify the limits in the contract. Alma demanded, with great conviction.“We had already discussed that last time, it is in the contract, they can and should, if necessary, hold hands, give each other hugs and kisses, only if they are in front of family and friends and I repeat, only if necessary. Diego, Edan's friend and lawyer, reiterated that he did not understand Alma's new attitude, who seemed angry and hostile."I want you to specify that if Edan oversteps his bounds, I can take action. Alma pleaded."To overcome?" Why? Has it ever happened? Diego asked, looking at the couple, totally bewildered.“I just want this time, the contract to be much more specific with the boundaries and feel more protected. Alma said. Diego looked at Edan, who was still serious in his place, without saying a word, or objecting. Edan just nodded."Okay, I under
The crying was finally over.Alma knew, that at some point, that sad stage had to end, finally, she had managed to stop crying for Edan.And though the pain had subsided, his feelings hadn't changed. But time heals everything, and as the days went by, she was sure that she would get over how she felt about Edan.Now, something had changed, finally some good news renewed her happiness, Alma's mother, Luz, was back home.Finally, Luz had been discharged from the hospital, and although she still had to take good care of herself, Alma felt a sigh of relief with her mother's presence at home.A nurse accompanied Mrs. Luz at all times at Alma's house, many times they rotated between shifts and had to adapt a little in the small property, however, it was worth it, to have her mother cared for by a professional all the time.It was a little hard to have to confess to Luz, upon her return, that her husband had abandoned his family, in his moment of greatest weakness, just when she had fallen i
Vivian had received, what to her was, terrible news, one so great, that it would change the course of her life, completely.That was the worst day of his life and no matter how hard he tried to find an explanation for why the worst misfortunes happened to him, he couldn't find it.The only momentary solution was to seek the support of the cause of all their ills.“Hello? A hoarse voice was heard in the receiver.“We need to talk. Vivian said with conviction."I told you not to call me. The man was heard muttering on the other end of the line."It's urgent, I need to talk to you. She spat, angrily.“Hey? I'll be here in a moment, baby! I'm talking to a partner. — He heard the subject respond to a female voice speaking to him on the other end of the receiver. Vivian pursed her lips, holding back her anger. "Tell me quickly, what do you want?""I need you to come, right now, it's urgent. He repeated, slowly."I've told you before. It was heard in a whisper. "It's not that easy, at the mo
Edan arrived at Alma's house full of anxiety and worry, knocking on the door loudly and again, hoping that it would be opened as soon as possible.He couldn't help but wonder, Had something happened to Alma? Because, for the first time since they started their peculiar relationship, she didn't answer their calls.When the door finally opened, Edan had to lower his gaze, little Diana was the one who greeted him and a little further back, came Naomi, Alma's sister."Hello, Edan! The little girl greeted him with emotion."Hello, linda."Did you come to pick us up to take us to your house?" Diana asked excitedly."No, I'm sorry, it will have to be another time, now I have something very important to do. Edan bent down slightly, to speak to her face. "And your sister?" Could you call Alma?"My sister is gone. — Informed the little girl. "She went out with her boyfriend."With her boyfriend?" Edan asked, standing up, feeling his whole-body tense.Naomi, who was already standing next to them
Alma enjoyed the date, she really had a good time, Mateo behaved like a gentleman, attentive, kind, and sweet, there was only one detail.He wasn't Edan.And no matter how hard Alma tried to focus on the presence of Matthew, who was an attractive and intelligent man, for whom any woman would go out of her way, she couldn't do it.Alma stared at Matthew's sweet gaze and was immediately approached by the memory of Edan's intense eyes, which detailed her with desire.Then, blushing, she looked down at her lips, forcing herself to pay attention to what Mateo was saying, and immediately she was enveloped by the sensation of Edan's lips over hers, ending up red as a tomato.Immediately, Alma took another sip from her glass of champagne to try to relax.It was impossible to go on a date like this and Alma no longer saw it as such, but rather as a chance encounter between friends.While Matthew, noticing how Alma focused all his attention on him, becoming more and more blushing, he felt trium
