Chapter 3 (Tears)

I never told grandma Tessa what happened to me in the Montenegro mansion. I also lied and said that I borrowed the dress of a fellow haciendera because I was short on my dress.

I’m here now at the beach and picking up shells. Apart from the shells I also found different colored stones. I also picked up that additional decoration for the necklace and bracelet I would make made of shells.

Every time I pick up I put in a plastic bag. The sun is hot and my skin is a little sore. But because I used to feel like I just didn't have it.

In the distance I could see the mansion. II slowly approached the stone steps of the Montenegro’s mansion.

Their mansion was at the top of the hill. The bottom is surrounded by rocks where the bottom is beach and vast sea. On each side of it there are rows of sun loungers that maybe they assume.

I slowly went upstairs. But I heard some voice. I stiffened when I heard the woman's soft voice. On a plant full of flowers. I hid there and searched for the noise.

Then I saw the youngest Montenegro. Ezekiel while hugging the short -haired and brunette woman.

My forehead furrowed and I looked at them carefully. They are very close to each other.

Why are those men from City are like that? In the movie I watch, it's the same. Men in the city are said to be aggressive.

"Do you know what you're doing?" A voice from my back make me jump. Because of that I dropped the stones!

I scratched my head and smiled. My smile didn’t reach my eyes because this man saw me naked. Hays! Why did when they come one by one I lost my innocence? Why are they so often here now?

I saw him look behind me at who I was peeking at and look back at me.

"I just passed by." I lifted the plastic. "I got shells in the sea. I'll make a bracelet."

He nodded but the gaze was on me. "You know how?"

I looked at his swollen muscles as he folded. I suddenly weakened because I don't seem to be able to level the person I'm talking to now. I’m shrinking myself.

"Yes. I also know how to make a fan and mat." I answer with pride.

He held out his hand. "May I see?"

My lips parted and I immediately showed it to him. He opened it and one by one looked at the rocks and shells.

"Can you make for me?" Later he asked. My smile widened.

"All right!" He snorted and looked at me earnestly.

"Do all this for me."

My smile faded as I remembered that I was able to get shells to sell to buy some school supplies

"I'll just take some again. Because I'll sell this. The school opening is near." I even smiled at him so he wouldn't be offended. "But promise I'll do it for you."

He shook his head. "I'll buy everything. Just make it."

"Really ?!" I exclaimed happily then he nodded.

Even if he doesn't smile he's still handsome!

"Yes." he answered me.

'' All right. "I would have turned my back on but I remembered something."How old are you ?" I ask . He was still in the same position and looking at me with his stern eyes..

"Twenty four." his short answer. I bit my lip so hard and nodded.

"All right! I'll do it!" I said goodbye and I ran away.

I happily went home and made the bracelet.

When I finish making the bracelet grandma told me to bring the food she made to Montenegro’s mansion! I got nervous because of that!

When I got in the mansion I saw one if their maids.

"Oh my! You cooked ! Can you just give to Mr. Ezekiel? He is on the pool side. Just give me the ones for Senyora because they are also in the market. "

"All right." I gave her three tupper ware of food. "One for Manuel." I was quick here before I headed to the poolside.

I was still amazed to see their antique paintings hanging on the wall. No matter how many times you look at it, it's not boring. Especially those in the middle. Their emblem of their Clan. Grandma. It's been a long time since their very ancestor and it's worth a million!

One day I will be rich too. I will finish school and work. I will save and I will also get rich.

I turned in the hallway when suddenly something landed on my shoulder. I stopped looking there.

"Ahh!" I froze and jumped when I saw the snake.

"Ahhh!" I trembled with fear. I even let go of the bag. Someone suddenly took it and I heard laughter.

"Oh I'm sorry. I really reprimand this pet." He gently stroked the snake that was entangled in his hand. He wasn't even scared.

I looked at the food that was already scattered on the floor. I looked at him with tears in my eyes and pointed.

"You meant that ?!"

My blood boiled when he laughed. "I'm sorry. I didn't really mean to surprise you".

"There! Look!" I pointed to the floor. I Picked up the bracelet box there. "You broke it!"

He took a stable and placed the snake there and laid it on the chair.

"I said I'm sorry I thought you weren't afraid. "

But that did not ease my anger.

"You don't always have a joke! Look now! The food wasted."

"That's just a food for fuck sake." he hissed mockingly. The smile in his lips never fade. Seems he like the reaction coming from me.

What? Just A food?

I slapped him! His face twisted. Instead of getting angry, I even saw a ghost grinning on his lips.

"Damn."

"You're out of manners!" I cried. But I chocked my words when he approached me. He almost pushed me against the wall and locked me up.

"What did you say?" His face is now serious and nothing naughty. His jaw clenched. I still seem to be angry with him. But I stood by the anger I felt.

"I said you're rude!"

"Again please."

"You don't have-" I stopped as he grabbed my nape and claimed my lip. I was shocked and almost rolled my eyes when I felt his lips move on my lips.

"Don't'-" I interrupted as his tongue entered my mouth. "Uhmmp."

Every pull I make he blocks. I tried to kick his balls but his knee trapped my leg. I cried a lot when he didn't stop kissing me.

"T-That's enough." I cried as he finally stop kissing me.

We were both short of breath. His lips were too close to mine.

"Sorry.But I'd climb a fucking mountains just to kiss your sweet lips again."

But I pushed him right away. I ignored the food on the floor. I just left it and run!

I could barely sleep that night. I tried to be happy in front of my grandmother and grandfather even though I was going to have a fever. My lips are no longer virgin. Is that so? I can't really accept it!

The next morning, as usual my first thing have done was to the beach. Because I didn't see Manuel yesterday so I didn't give my self made bracelet. I can't sell it either.

it's only been a week since I had to make money selling these shells so I'll get a lot now. I am no longer as far away from the mansion as I used to be.

I am here in the part where there are beautiful little caves and large coral rocks.

When I could find nothing I walked in the direction in which to go to the mansion. There I stopped again and searched for stones. When I saw many green rocks on the big coral, I stood there and picked them up.

"What." I stopped to hear the woman's voice.

I walked slowly and searched for that voice.

"Don't.."

"Uh huh." I shivered when I heard the familiar voice.

My heart pounded at the realization.

"It's tickling there."

"Show me." said the male voice.

Bitterness and anger spread through my system I don't know why.

Behind a large coral rock, a woman was sitting and wearing a black two piece. Manuel hugged and kissed his lips. I heard the woman moaned.

Are they like this? Do men love this kind of intimacy?

"Manuel, Oh please." The girl said.

I almost drew my nail into the rock. My tears are rolling down my cheeks and my heart is pounding.

My eyes dimmed when I saw Manuel's gaze on me.

He wasn't surprised or anything. He just looked at me coldly. He slowly crossed the distance between them and the woman. I saw how he turned the woman's neck. I saw how their lips met and they kissed in front of me.

My tears fell for no apparent reason.
