SidneyI woke up from another nightmare. I was panting for a while, my chest hurt from so much agony. I felt something pass my shoulder and I held it, scared, but soon I felt relieved to see Adeline lying next to me. She looked at me, seeing how distressed I was. We stared at each other for a while, but she was much calmer than me.“It's me, Sidney.I kissed his hand, which caressed my face."Another nightmare?" “ He asked. “ Who did you dream about?I did not answer. Not because I didn't know, but because there were countless things I couldn't explain. For fear that she would think nonsense."Dream about Mya?" Your…"My wife is you," I said.“ What did you dream?"She…" I was speechless.“ Why? Why are you still so attached to her?“Because she turned me into a person I never thought I would one day be. It seems that she cries out for justice… I am afraid that something will happen to you, because if this happens again, there will be no medicine that will cure me.Adeline walked over
AdelineI had felt my baby inside me for seven months. I walked through the halls of the house, going to my room to get my wallet, since I had an appointment scheduled. Hastily, I entered the room and felt a pain. I took a deep breath, maybe I was walking too fast. I rubbed my stomach and tried to calm down. I closed the door and walked until I was next to the bed, where my wallet was, and at that moment, someone covered my mouth.“ Shiuu … Quiet!I took a deep breath, becoming motionless and distressed. I looked to the side and saw Marck with the gun pointed at my head.“ Surprise! he said, smiling. “ Calm down, I won't hurt you if you cooperate.I nodded, accepting. He took his hand away from my mouth and glared at me. I couldn't contain myself and started to cry. Marck smiled and touched my belly.“Please don't hurt my baby,” I begged.“ Shiuu … Calm down!"Miss Adeline, may I come in?" We have to go to the consultation,” he said to Cecília, knocking on the door.“ Silence. Come on
SidneyLying in bed, I found myself in a hospital room. I called for Adeline, I needed to see her. At that moment, Nurse Maria came in, holding my daughter in her arms. He walked over to me and handed me the baby. She was so small, she looked like a doll. Curly hair, your mother's mouth and so fragile. I couldn't hold it straight, my arms were shaking.“ My wife?“ Like this? Maria asked, not understanding."Adeline, where is she?"I was distressed and I liked the way Maria looked at me."Sidney, don't you remember?" You killed her… Have you forgotten? she said, glaring at me with eyes of fury.“ No! I screamed, holding my daughter, crying.I cried a lot, it could only be a nightmare... It could only be a nightmare. I said to myself: Sidney, wake up.I woke up, distressed and panting. I looked around and saw myself lying on the bed. My hand was bandaged by compresses due to the surgery. I woke up in excruciating pain, but I wanted to know about my girls. I got out of bed and started w
Days laterMarckEverything was going the way I had planned, how the hell did I end up in jail? I was used to putting others here, I never imagined I would be here. In a musty”smelling room with a bunch of pathetic people. Prisoners, he hated these people.“ Senhor Marck… Look, everyone, the policeman is here! “ said one of the prisoners, looking at me, with that finished face."What is your crime?" another man asked. I felt the gaze of those wretched ones upon me; many of them, I put here. Here, where I am now. Prison. They must have been amused to see me in that situation.I didn't answer and stayed inside the cell; I was waiting for judgment day to arrive. I had to find a way to get out of here. I almost died from a beating at Sidney's hands and got shot by that bitch nurse. I would never settle for Sidney loose and happy, even playing house. I was going to find a way out of here and he was going to pay a very high price."Mr. Marck," said the policeman, still wondering, as we were
One year laterSidneyI held my little one on my lap, looking at her graceful and radiant smile. She was more beautiful every day and more like her mother. She had light brown eyes, almost like mine, and curly hair, the most beautiful curls I've ever seen."Is she asleep yet?" Adeline asked, entering the room."No, and I don't think he's going to sleep anytime soon," I replied.Adeline laughed and walked over to me. He caressed the little girl's hair, making her more cheerful and lively.We were making time for her to sleep, as we were going to have dinner somewhere. My mother would stay with the baby for a few hours."Isn't it time for you to go?" my mother asked, coming closer."It pains me to leave you here!" said Adeline sadly.“ Don't worry, she'll be in good hands “ said my mother, holding the little one in her lap.It was beautiful the way she held my daughter. My mother's eyes shone, she melted all over.I was going to Adeline, we were going to travel for a few days and we wou
AdelineWe had dinner in a quiet, refined and elegant place. Sidney was eating me up with his gaze as he sipped his red wine. I wore a long lace dress, in black, mermaid style. He loved to emphasize my curves, even more when I had to look beautiful for him.“ You look beautiful!“ I know that look… Soon, I'll be dessert.He laughed.“ Most delicious dessert I have ever tasted.I ran my foot up his leg, teasing him.“ For! he said seriously. “You're ruining the moment, it was supposed to be a romantic evening.“ You romantic? This is new. “ Laughed.He rolled his eyes and got up, approaching me and getting on his knees. I was surprised to see him like this. Sidney took a small box out of his suit pocket and faced me. He looked nervous and his hands were shaking."Adeline, will you marry me?" Me and you for ever.I put my hands over my mouth, excited. My heart almost came out of my mouth.“Adeline?” ’ He looked at me. "People are looking and I'm waiting for an answer," he whispered worr
*****Marriage****AdelineIt was in the bedroom, in front of the mirror. Sidney's mother insisted on hiring a make”up artist for me. My makeup was light, highlighting only my lips, with a cherry red lipstick. My hair had been braided in a huge braid, trimmed with white roses."You look beautiful, sister!" Jessica said, handing me a box of Betinal wreaths.The makeup artist took the adornment and placed it on me. Then I put on the dress. It was white, long, with a "V" neckline and lace.I was nervous and doing my best to cry, I've always been emotional. I so wish my mom was here with me.“ Come on, the groom is looking forward to it! Scarlett said, looking serene. My sister and I looked at each other and laughed, amused by my mother”in”law."Are you afraid I'm going to leave your son at the altar?" I asked, laughing.“I'm here to make sure that doesn't happen. “ She smiled.I was accompanied to the place where the wedding would take place, in a ballroom. Getting there, there were a lot
**** Honeymoon ****Sidney“ We arrived! “ I say to Adeline, standing in front of the hotel in Venice. Before we got married, I asked her which country she would like to visit and she, being romantic and delicate, chose Italy, in the city of Venice. As a man in love with her, I did her will and took her to the city of Venice. Venice is a city located in the north east of Italy situated on a group of small islands separated by canals and connected by bridges. A beautiful city to see and ideal for those who want a romantic moment, as it is beautiful in its architecture and works of art. I can say that it is a romantic place. A part of the city is listed as a World Heritage Site, along with its lagoon.Adeline smiled enthusiastically and we were soon escorted inside the hotel, where we already had a room reserved for us. We went to the room and were surprised by the romantic decoration they had made. There were red rose petals on the bed and red candles spread across the bedroom furnitur
EpilogueMarlonI get home and see Sasha sitting on the couch with a paper in her hand, she looked nervous and scared.“ Sasha…She looked at me and approached me, giving me a big hug. I returned the hug and gave him a kiss on the shoulder.“ What it was?She looked at me.“ I'm Pregnant!I couldn't contain myself with the news and I gave him a kiss, pressing his body against mine.“ Are you happy? “ She asked me distressed.“ Of course I am, aren't you?“ What if our son or daughter, be a…I put my finger on her lips, shutting her up, before she said anything stupid.“ He will be perfect, be beautiful, healthy and have lots of love…“ If you are like me?“ It will be even more perfect!She showed a smile and nodded. That smile was everything to me.“ I love you.” He declared.I took his mouth, plunging my hands into his hair. Our kiss was strong and intense, we could barely breathe. In one movement I took her into my arms, placing my torso between her legs. I walked to the stairs, bu
MarlonNancy once again left a plate of food and left. He treated me like those animals that carried out tests in the laboratory. She fed me, but tortured me, taking away my strength so I couldn't escape. He kept me alive to torture me. I had no idea of time or the day I was here, but it seemed like an eternity. I sit inside the cage, hugging my arms around my legs and resting my head on my knee, trying to maintain my sanity. At that moment I hear a noise, footsteps approaching me and a familiar smell. I look and I can't believe who I see in front of me. She, the woman who wanted to open my eyes so many times but I didn't listen, the woman who even though I doubted her, she came to me.“ Sasha! “ He said in surprise.She held the railing.“ Wow, what did they do to you Marlon?” Her eyes shone and she looked distressed.“ You have to get out of here! She's crazy, get out of here!” I said.“ No, without you...“ Go Sasha!“ No!She takes a hairpin out of her hair and tries to open the
SashaI wake up and get scared seeing Júnior in front of me, watching me. He looked distressed and furious at the same time. I faced him, lying on my back, waiting for him to say something.“ Have you spoken to my brother?I didn't respond and continued staring at him.“ Responds!“ No.“ Do you know where he is?“ How would I know, he is no longer my husband.Junior took a deep breath and rubbed his head.“ Why do you ask me about Marlon?“ Because I find it strange that he disappeared, on the same day that he left you! I find it very strange.“ How did it disappear? “ my heart accelerated, I didn’t understand what happened.“ I suspect he was kidnapped! He has been incommunicado for three days.“ What?“ And I suspect someone is involved in this! “ He looked at me seriously.“ Do you think I have something to do…“ just the day he separates from you he is kidnapped!“ I would never hurt him...“ Really? The scar he has on his abdomen, who made it?I looked away, how could he think s
SashaThe day passed and it seemed like an endless time, I felt lifeless, as if everything was black and white. I missed my home, Marlon... without him it felt like something was missing from me. I sit on the bed and pick up a book to read, I like to read novels. One of the nurses was kind enough to lend me one.“ Sasha…“ Mike! “ I say surprised looking at him. He was at the door looking at me with a smile. He came closer to me and sat on mine. In this hospital, men and women were all together. It was a happier place with good energy.“ Why are you here?“ I will be hospitalized for a few days, they are testing my mental state!“ What happened?“ Nancy, she’s alive! I saw…“ Didn't she die?I shook my head no and explained everything that happened. Mike opened his eyes, surprised by what I said.“ Of course no one would believe you? Nobody believes in people like us!“ I know…“ Marlon?“ We are no longer together... It's better that way. “ I wiped the tear from the corner of my eye.
SashaAfter a few minutes of waiting the event began. She was sitting next to Marlon, one of his hands was resting on my leg, crossed with the other, stroking it. I had my arm resting on Marlon's shoulder, while I saw Júnior receiving the award and giving a speech. He liked to give long speeches that sounded like a lecture.I feel Marlon's hand sliding up my inner thigh, teasing me. I pressed my legs, closing them more and preventing his hand from moving forward.“ Stop, Marlon! “ I sent.He showed a mischievous smile, staring at me, as if he wanted to tame me right now.“ It is serious!He put his lips to my ear and bit lightly.“ I told you that this dress would give you problems…I gave him a quick kiss on the mouth and got up from the table, forcing him to let me go before he did something crazy. I was already going crazy with his touch, that if he continued with these provocations I would end up giving in. I went to the bathroom, got myself together and touched up my lipstick and
SashaI look out the window at home, seeing Marlon getting into the car and leaving for work. I waited a few minutes and started getting ready to leave, wearing something simple and practical, leggings and a black t”shirt, sneakers and a cap. I called the taxi and asked it to take me to the address I had written down on the paper. I couldn't drive, because of my mental condition. It wasn't safe for me or others. The place was distant, it was far from the city, it took almost half a walk to get there. When I arrived in the neighborhood, I asked for a taxi to stop one block before the place. I got out of the taxi and walked to the place. I arrived and spent a minute looking at the house, Nancy's house. The house was made of wood, rustic style but it was beautiful and tall. I spent a while watching the house to see if anyone was in the house, but it seemed to be abandoned. I didn't know why I was here, but something told me that I had to come, I had to know more about her, because I saw
SashaI'm at home in front of the television, watching time pass. I try to forget what happened in a moment, but it's all well and good. It wasn't imagination! I saw someone came into my store and messed with my dolls. I really wanted to believe that Nancy was dead, but something told me no, I was terrified of that woman. She was so evil, that even if one day they told me that she died and was reborn from the ashes, I would believe it.Sitting on the couch, I press my hands to my dress, trying to stay calm, breathing deeply. At that moment II get up and go to the kitchen to take the medication, which my new psychiatrist had recommended to me. I had to take it twice a day. I'm starting to get bored, I was used to always keeping myself busy, it helped me scare away "them". I pick up a novel and go to the porch of the house and start reading."Sasha...."I hear the voice calling me again. No matter how much medication I took, there was always a voice calling me, it felt like it was my si
SashaAfter a weekend away from home, we returned to our routines. I took advantage of Marlon's ride to go to the store and he went to work. It was a beautiful day, sunny and people were walking around in the street. My store was in front of a garden, where children used to play. Before opening the store, I spent some time looking at the children playing, happy and radiant. Others were with their parents, the affection between them was so beautiful. I wished my adoptive parents were alive, they were missed to this day. I wish I had had a good relationship with Nancy, my…Sister. Even though I knew she was my sister, I couldn't feel affection for her, just pity. If she had told me right away that she was my sister, it would have been different.I turn my attention back to the store and open the doors. I go in and see that the objects are not the way I left them before. On the floor there were two dolls sitting in front of me, one blonde and one brunette, both with sharp eyes. I take a d
MarlonThe sun's rays come through my bedroom window, creating a pleasant breeze, I could hear the sea waves while lying in bed. I reach over to the side where Sasha slept, but it's empty. I wake up looking to the side and see that there is a note.“Love, I'm waiting for you on the beach"I got out of bed and looked out the window. She was lying in her thong, sunbathing. I spend a while appreciating her and she looks at me, lowers her sunglasses showing a smile. She bites her lip and with her index finger calls me to meet her.I show a smile and lip, appreciating that geisha who seduced me every day, I say goodbye with a look and go to the bathroom. I stand in front of the mirror looking at the scar on my abdomen, thinking about whether it would go or not. I put my hand on my head and breathe, then I decide I'm going. I put the indentrifocal paste on my teeth, wash my face and get ready. I go out onto the balcony of the house that directly overlooks the beach and see her coming out of
