After a warm and delightful shower, I feel cozy. I put on clothes appropriate for the temperature and headed downstairs. I needed to clarify things with my father. Despite all the kindness and affection he has for me, he deserves to know the truth.

"Hi, Dad, can we talk?"

"Of course, daughter, sit here next to me!"

I sit next to my father, who holds my hand and caresses it. He's always so affectionate with me and my sister. He has never raised his voice at me or my sister. With him, everything has always been through conversation. It has always been that way, and I knew it wouldn't be any different now.

"You see, Dad, I met a guy a while ago, and we started dating, and I ended up getting pregnant."

"Yes, and?"

"Well, he doubted that the child was his and that I was trying to trap him because he's wealthy."

"Ana, who is this jerk?"

"Well, Dad, it's not even worth mentioning his name, and I want to forget about him."

"I want to have a good talk with this guy. He may not take responsibility for the child, but he deserves to hear some truths."

"Dad, he's not worth getting upset with. I've already decided I'm going to take care of my son alone. I don't need any to raise a child he thinks isn't his or to accuse me of using a baby to trap him." . I want peace in my life, that's why I came here. The farther away from Seattle and this, the better."

"I understand, daughter, but as a father, this situation is hard to swallow."

"I know you're very upset, but I'm asking you not to do anything."

"For you, I won't do anything now."

"Thanks dad. I love you so much, you know?"

"Of course I know, because I'm the best dad in the world!"

"I have to agree with you on that!" I exclaimed, jumping into his lap and hugging him. It's really nice to have that moment with my dad. He really is the best dad in the world.

"Daughter, have you thought about how you are going to tell your mother about your pregnancy, especially about your move to France?"

"Dad, I didn't even think about the right time to talk to my mother. You know very well how she is, right?"

"You know she's going to make a big scene, right?"

"Yes, I'm getting ready for that."

"Daughter, it doesn't matter the situation that brought you here, the important thing is that you are here with me. I am very happy to have you here in my house, and my grandson will have absolutely everything he needs".

"Dad, you're amazing, you know that? I love you so, so much." My father kisses my forehead as a sign of affection and the love he feels for me. I feel completely protected here, and this is where I want to start over.

Diego:

I find it quite strange that this scammer has disappeared again. Does she think I'll go after her? Well, she's absolutely right because I don't buy this pregnancy story. I will definitely get to the bottom of this and demand a DNA test. She will have to prove that this child is mine, but I'm sure it will come back negative. She must have planned all of this, thinking I would believe it and fall for it. I've been through this before; some exes tried to trap me with a fake pregnancy. When the DNA test was done, it proved what everyone already knew—it wasn't mine. Since then, I decided I wouldn't be a father. Even though I love her deeply, I can't let myself be deceived.

And now she's doing the same thing she did before she told me she was pregnant – disappearing for a few days as if she created suspense. I think she wants to unsettle me before breaking the news, perhaps thinking that by doing so she will convince me to accept a child that may not be mine.

In the last few days, my life has been turned upside down. I feel disoriented and lost without her here. She took the ground out from under my feet and left me without direction. I'm struggling not to run after her because I love this devil so much. Why did she have to do this to me? Why?

We could have been so happy together. Why did she have to screw everything up? Why didn't she listen to me? I would give everything I have to have her here again, telling her it was all a mistake and it's just the two of us. I really wish I could have her in my arms and continue living the intense moments we had, one day more intense than the other. Knowing that this won't happen anymore hurts, it hurts a lot. But I have my word and I will keep it to the end.

Ella:

I got home and everything seems so empty without Ana here. Being alone here won't be easy. We've always been very close, ever since we were teenagers. We went to school together and made plans to come to Seattle to pursue our college education. Georgia was too small for what we planned to achieve. And then Diego came along and ruined everything. I want to slap that one. I hope I don't run into him anywhere, because I don't know what he would do or say. Because of him, my friend left, and now she has to start life from scratch, and with a baby. Starting over is hard enough, imagine doing this with a child?

How could a guy who claimed to love her so much do something like that, leaving a woman when she needed him the most? I hope Ana recovers and finds someone really beautiful to love her. I hope Diego suffers a lot to see her happy and rebuild her life with someone else, so that he realizes that he lost an incredible woman.
