CHAPTER 2

Denver, Colorado, July 15, 2019.

I woke up in the morning, the weather was still cloudy, and soon I looked out the window and saw a huge truck in front of Brian's house. I thought I was half asleep and when I looked again it really was a big truck, as soon as I brushed my teeth I ran to his house and found out what was going on because until last night everything was perfectly fine.

My mother was still sleeping, I think maybe she didn't know anything either, and my heart skipped a beat.

“Mr. Philip, where is Brian?” Tell me what's going on here, please! — Ana calms down, he'll explain, everything will be all right.

“Brian, tell me no and what I'm thinking, okay?

— Ana, I don't even know what to do, I was taken by surprise, I couldn't even sleep.

“Brian can't let me remind you of eternal love, our future, I love you! — Ana, don't make me cry, there's no way out, we need to move, my father and mother separated, so they decided to sell the house, and now I'm going to live in another country.

— Look, my love, we stayed together, I can work for you too, and we live together, we assumed our love once and for all.

At that moment, emotion took over because Brian didn't know what to say, much less make decisions like that without having a project or a job. Embraced as if it were a game of no return, the tears came down and what they felt was true love and a huge pain arose in her heart that in Ana she could not stop crying or stay calm.

— Ana, I love you and my love for you will never be forgotten or replaced.

“Brian, where will I be without you?” I won't make it, I know I won't!

In full desperation, I tried to talk to Mr. Philip so he could stay. I was going to ask my mother if they could stay at home until I got another one, but what I heard was a lot of belts. I ran to my house, woke up my mother screaming in sobs for help and she went to see what was happening.

— Mom, if you love, please do something. I'm in love with Brian, sorry we dated in secret, my heart hurts, Mom, help me.

Laura, Ana's mother, knew the pain her daughter felt, but she couldn't do anything. The only thing was to hug her and ask her to be calm. Laura understood and always knew about their romance, but now unfortunately it was ending and the pain she felt had also felt a lot and still feels today, but she would always be there to help her overcome it.

— Mother help me, try to talk to Mr. Philip! "I'll try harder, I promise to stay calm, okay?" - Yes!

So, for the first time, Ana's mother talked to Brian's father and tried to help, because she knew the pain that her daughter was feeling and the same thing she heard was also very painful.

There was a river where Brian and Ana often sat there in the garden around it thinking about life. And that's where she went, because in one of the trees was the letter of their name and crying a lot she asked God not to let him go, because she would know that a part of her would not survive without him.

- A-N-A? — I'm in the same pain you're feeling, but believe me, I'll be back!

“Brian!”

— Look, we can see each other on vacation, and I'll call you daily and for a little while, Ana, trust that this isn't the end and nothing else will separate the two of us.

“I told Mom we were dating!” - What?

"That's right, she didn't want to kill you, she said she already knew, but now you're gone!"

— Ana, I'm not going to leave you and I want to be like your grandparents together when they're very old and just for a little while, I just don't want to go see you like this.

“Do you want me to be like this then?” — Ana, believe me, it's been much more painful for me than for you, but I'll be back!

We then made a vow of love promising to connect, that soon we would be together again, because I believe in him and I know that his love for me is also greater than anything, and together we will overcome this barrier.

— Hi, guys, sorry your mom told me to come, but unfortunately we have to go Brian!

“Shall we Anna?”

Still crying a lot we were hugged and said goodbye with a kiss and I didn't even care if it was in front of his mother or father, for me, I would be inside that truck, and again he promised he would come back. Good thing, I knew his mom was going to stay here in Colorado, which made me a little happier.

When he got in the car, that's when it hit me! Because I wouldn't have him every morning at my door to go to school and that I wouldn't have anyone to protect me and hold my hand when I'm scared and not to mention his smile that made me even more in love.

The pain came back, and my heart was in pieces, I didn't know how to stop it, and I just asked my mother to leave me alone, I needed it.

— My God, she didn't leave the room for nothing, maybe she needs something, I'll see how she's doing.

— Daughter, it's okay there, look mom bought the pizza you like!

With no response from Ana's mother, Dona Laura then took a spare key to Ana's room and when she opened it, she found her daughter on duty, not knowing how to get there.“Honey, calm down, mommy is here!” — Mom, how do you end this pain? I can't stand it, it hurts so much, mom, please help.

Senhora Laura had no way to help her, and she lay on her side, hugging her until she fell asleep from crying. She knew that this pain was horrible and the worst that there is no medicine that cures the suffering of love.
