"You shouldn't let anger get the best of you, brother," I tried to advise him.

"Oh, of course not, that's not going to happen," he murmured, sipping the remnants of his drink.

"The point is, you should calm down, go and expand your social networks just like she..."

"She doesn't expand her social networks; she's known him since she was seventeen!" he shouted in frustration, but I continued to look at him impassively.

"You should relax," I said with a shrug, finding it impossible to understand his nervous breakdown.

Wasn't it his idea? He should just speak the truth, express his true feelings, and that's it.

I know it's easier said than done, but it was the best way out instead of going around throwing punches.

"Is he holding her hand?" he asked through gritted teeth. "This is over."

I sighed and decided to get him out of there before the situation turned into a bloody and unpleasant scene.

I took care of dragging him out of the café and then let him run free, like a caged animal.

All 3 of us were there, so my father and I, surviving, had to go to a lot of therapies and support each other all this time, for that reason, we are so close. He is my best friend. My name is Minerva Finn, I'm 19 years old and a freshman in college majoring in Mass Communications. My dream has always been to become the best and most well-known film and television editor... and to win an Oscar.“Where are we going this summer?,” I said with a little more obviousness and enthusiasm, When I greeted him with a kiss on the cheek, before having breakfast.I thought today would be a great day, as the vacations were approaching and so was our outing together.

    “Oh, yeah? This from someone who will be babysitting a 19-year-old girl.” I looked at him defiantly. He turned and gave me an ugly look. We weren't that far away so we were able to have a staring battle.“It's sad that you are 19 years old and need one, don't you think?,” he smiled superiorly at me and all I did was look at him angrily. It couldn't be that we barely spoke for 10 minutes and he already seemed like the most arrogant person in the world. I tried to think of my mother and her rule of being nice to everyone, but he was so arrogant that it was impossible. Our gazes were still sparking. After a few seconds I heard my father's voice calling us. I stopped looking at him and peeked over the railing in the hallway and could see the entire downstairs.“You were calling me, father?” I said sweetly.“Where have you been? Come on down. I'm almost leaving and I want to give you one last hug.”Without answering him, I went down the stairs and swung towards him. I felt someone c

    It had been about 45 minutes when I got home from the coffee shop. I had my headphones on, so I was in a good mood. When I got to the front door of my house, I took out my keys and inserted the key, but something was wrong. It wouldn't go all the way in, there was something blocking the way. I took off my headphones and struggled with the door to open it. Nothing was happening. I knocked hard on the door to open it."Who is it?," I heard Ethan's voice on the other side of the door."Don't be an idiot, open the door," I said annoyedly, but with a moderate tone."You didn't identify yourself"."I'm Minerva, you asshole. Open the door to MY house," I emphasized my words."I don't know, I don't know. Who gave you permission to leave YOUR house without me?"I massaged my temples lightly, my patience was wearing thin with this guy. "I'm 19 years old, I don't have to ask anyone's permission to go out. Least of all from an idiot who thinks he has control over me," I said leaning against

    "Mom, you always told me to be nice to everyone, I failed you. I'm so sorry. I'll try to make it up to him, he's not to blame. What a fool, Minerva."I sighed and stood up. When I realized, my cheeks were wet. I wiped myself with my shirt and opened the refrigerator again. I looked for something to make something to eat, it was the least I could do. I found meat and spaghetti. I made a tomato sauce and cooked the meat into meatballs, when it was all ready, I put the pasta on to cook. When I looked at the clock it was 8pm. I set the table for two and took a Coke out of the fridge. I looked for some bread in the pantry and cut several pieces and put them on a plate. As I was about to take them to the table, I met Ethan at the door. I almost dropped my plate from the fright he gave me."Ethan, I didn't hear you. Dinner will be ready in a few minutes". I smiled kindly and spoke in a rather calm tone of voice.He didn't answer and helped me, taking the dishes out of the pantry to eat.

    He looked at me confused and realized I was in my underwear. He grabbed the sheet and covered himself with it. I felt something inside me wanted to take it off and he had been saddened because he covered his body.Why the hell was she having so many sinful thoughts? God, I needed a priest right now."No, wait, I can explain. It's not what you think"."Ah, no? Then WHY ARE YOU SEMI-NUDGED? DID YOU RAPE ME?!," I quickly grabbed another pillow and kept hitting him with the pillow while practically cursing him.He got up from the bed to stop the blows, but I followed him without stopping hitting him."Shit, but if you stop hitting me, I could explain," he said, trying to grab my arms to make me stop, but I fought him off. I wasn't going to stop hitting him. He deserved it, I was starting to trust him, to like him, to make peace, but I got careless for a second and he took me to his room. ASLEEP, DAMMIT! "You took advantage of me while I was asleep!," I was getting tired, but I wasn'

    Since that incident, Ethan had been much nicer and at the same time distant with me, we were getting along a little better, but not like the day we both apologized to each other. He didn't accompany me when I went to the GYM or shopping with some of my girlfriends, but he was almost always stuck in my house. We didn't talk much, just trivial things like what he thought of what was on TV at the time or how was the food that night, totally impersonal and banal things.My friend Amy called me to confirm going to the beach in 2 weeks, I had already spent half a month on vacation and I hadn't realized what I had used it up on. Amy and Isabela since I told them about my "babysitter" always asked me about him, they even threatened me that if they didn't meet him soon, they were going to call him and meet him somewhere to get to know him for themselves. I couldn't allow that, so I said I would take him and clarified "as a babysitter" to the beach. They were excited and I was really nervous

    "Okay, you start," even though I wanted to, I couldn't sit like him since I had a skirt and was a lady. I continued eating my exquisite pasta, waiting for him to start."I play the guitar," he said proudly."I play the piano," I said naturally."Hmm... I've never had a pet"."I did, a dog. Her name was Brandy"."When I was little, I fell out of my father's arms," he said with a grimace."I was dropped off the bed," I mimicked his grimace.We both fell silent, looking at each other. A few seconds later, we started laughing."I like to read a lot of books," I added, once my laughter had stopped."I like to read too," he said, smiling and stopping laughing."I learned to ride a bike when I was 15," I said with some embarrassment."What?," he stared at me, waiting for me to say it was a lie, but when he saw that I didn't say anything, he started to laugh."Don't laugh, I never had the chance, okay?," I pushed him slightly, somewhat resentfully."Please, Minerva. You learn that when you'r

    Valentine's Day had finally arrived.Daniel was a bundle of nerves, and spending the day helping him clean his house and prepare the dinner for the evening was getting on my nerves too.I didn't want to prepare anything for that day with Ethan because I knew, thanks to my brother-in-law, that he was planning a surprise for me, a surprise that I hadn't discovered yet.When we finished the preparations, Daniel accompanied me back home. Upon arriving, I saw that Ethan was at home.That surprised me."What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be at work?" I looked at him in doubt."Today is a special day. Did you really think I'd forget it and work until so late?" He put his hands on my waist to pull me closer."No, you never forget this day, and you always have some surprise for me." I hugged him, resting my head on his shoulder."Do you want to know your surprise?" Our gazes connected."I should be the one surprising you." I hesitated.Ethan gave me a sly smile and retraced his steps to re

    I was immensely excited to see them since I hadn't seen them for several weeks. They had been on their honeymoon, and I wasn't expecting them back for another couple of days. Behind them were Iván and Amelia.Delia let them all in and appeared in the living room just behind them."Minnie!" Chris said excitedly."Why are you here so early?" I asked, genuinely confused by their early arrival."Do you think we'd leave you alone on our beautiful godson's birthday?" Isabela said."To be honest, yes. You were on your honeymoon," I admitted with a shrug."And? We decided to come back early, plus with this woman, every day feels like a honeymoon," Chris said, looking at Isabela with love, putting his arm around her waist and pulling her close.She smiled and pushed him away a bit, giggling. I smiled happily."But you know, the party starts in an hour," I said apologetically for them arriving so early.Chris looked at Isabela, who looked at Iván, and then their gaze moved to Amelia."I thought

    Three years later..."Minerva, hurry up, we're going to be late!" I heard Ethan's voice from downstairs.I rolled my eyes and finished adjusting my hair and dress. I put on some flats and made my way down the stairs.At the bottom of the stairs was the man I had been living with for 7 years, and I loved him just as much as when I was 19.He stopped checking his watch and took a deep breath as he prepared to call me again. However, when he saw me, he smiled in a way that I adored.I descended the stairs and stopped on the last step, so I was at eye level with him.This day was very special because my father was finally returning from his annual business observation trip around the world. It had been 5 months since I last saw him, and I was excited to see him again. It was also special because we were going to a unique birthday celebration and my father was returning from his trip. I had taken the day off with my beloved husband to have lunch together."I'm here," I said, smiling at him

    Esther stood still for a moment, as if waiting for a sign or something. In the background, you could see their house, and she was sitting on the couch that used to belong to her father, according to what Ethan had told me. Esther was wearing a dress that I had given her on one of the many times I had dinner at her place."Is it recording?" Esther pointed at the camera. The image wobbled slightly, as if the person recording didn't have a steady hand."Yes, Mom," Daniel's voice sounded with irritation."Don't answer me like that, young man," she scolded him and narrowed her eyes, looking beyond the camera.I chuckled and saw Daniel by my side, shrinking in his seat."I'm sorry, Mom. We've already had five takes; they could arrive any moment, and the surprise will be ruined."Daniel sighed with nostalgia, as if he were remembering that day."Well, all right. I'm sorry," Esther paused, lowered her head, took a deep breath, and raised her head with a beautiful smile. "Ethan, Minerva, if y

    I took a deep breath, looking at myself in the mirror.I adjusted the white dress I was wearing and looked at my friends. Isabela was sitting on a sofa in the room, holding a glass of wine in her right hand, gazing at me intently.Both of them were wearing pale pink dresses that hugged their bodies, with small straps supporting the dress and accentuating their chests. They had their hands on their hips, inspecting me from head to toe.In a way, the three of us had changed.My hair was a bit shorter than before, although at that precise moment, it wasn't noticeable since I had it tied up with a bow and a braid. Amelia kept her hair the same length as before and had it straightened this time, pulled into a high ponytail.The three of us still shared the same height and the same skin tone.I turned to look at myself again in the mirror in front of me. The dress was bigger than I had imagined, slightly constricting around my stomach, which was bothering me a bit near the abdominal wound,

    I paced back and forth in the living room of my house, extremely nervous.I glanced at my father's closed office door once more. I then sat down on the largest sofa in the room, placing both hands on my knees.It was a fairly sunny day, with a few clouds in the sky, but it was overall a bright blue day. My house was clean, thanks to the cleaning I had done the day before in preparation for today.My house looked the same as before. The dining area was in front of a large window with a panoramic view of the city. Next to it was the guest bedroom door, where Ethan had stayed the first time he visited.In front of me was the TV, with two individual sofas on each side. To the left, there was a wall with an opening leading to the kitchen, which was spotless. The stairs were behind me, and the front door was in the opposite corner of the same wall.You could see the upstairs from where I was sitting, as there was a glass and black metal railing that allowed you to see halfway down the hallw

    I released my friends' hands and sat next to Daniel."Hello," I murmured."Hello, Minnie," he responded sleepily."How do you feel?" I smiled with a hint of sadness."Tired. This has been intense," he admitted, leaning his elbows on his knees."I'm sorry for everything that happened. This was not part of the plan."He sighed."Don't worry, Minnie. We're all alive. Now, it's time for you and my brother to make amends. Go on, what are you waiting for?"Daniel smiled at me with all the sincerity his tired eyes could muster, and he got up. I followed suit. We hugged, and Daniel joined my friends. I approached them too."Take him to my house and tell my father what happened. Ask him to let Daniel sleep in my room, please."My friends nodded and gave me a hug. I hugged Iván tightly, and he smiled at me. They left a few minutes later.I waited until I couldn't see them anymore and stood in front of Ethan's room. I took a deep breath and entered. I closed the door behind me and stood at the f

    "Let me go, Christopher! Ethan's inside, for God's sake! Let me go!" I struggled to free myself from his grasp.I couldn't contain the emotions inside me. My stomach churned with dread. Ethan was inside, and I couldn't leave him.Chris held me tightly, his grip unyielding.I was overwhelmed by the tumultuous emotions raging within me. Ethan had died, and there was so much left unsaid. I couldn't tell him I loved him; I couldn't apologize for my earlier harsh words. I wouldn't see him again, feel his presence, hug him, or kiss him. He was gone.He had left us, protecting both me and Chris.How had I ever doubted his feelings for me? Now he was gone, gone forever.The firefighters rushed to extinguish the flames, but I was unable to look away from the fire-ravaged mansion. My tears flowed freely down my cheeks.I had been so foolish. I hadn't told him how I felt. I hadn't had the chance to say yes to his proposal. And now, it was too late. He was gone.Exhausted from my struggles with
