Where Love is Reborn Chapter twenty
I run to the shooting booth and stop in front seeing some people shooting at the targets to win the gifts, some children are around looking amazed at a game that practically only serves to get money, since many people have a bad shot. The toy is beautiful and bright, the counter is worn, but in compensation the targets are well maintained, they must be changed every month. The targets are colorful fish made with wood, they are so cute that it makes you want to take it home. I look at the corner of the tent and the gentleman behind the counter looks grumpy, since he does not open a smile.Cassian stops by my side and crosses her arms looking at people playing. I fake a false cough to attract his attention and when I can I put my hands behind my back smiling. The time has come to twist the truth.— Alison has great aim. Once we went to an amusement park and stayed for hours at target shooting, we left there with so many gifts that on the way we even gave some to the children, they were
Where Love is Reborn Chapter twenty-one
Saturday is usually the best day of the week for me. I can do nothing, watch a movie, sleep and eat. This Saturday I decided not to eat candy, since I threw myself in the sweets yesterday, but what could I do? I was caring for my inner child and children do not care about healthy eating.I sit at my small dining table with my bread and milk with warm chocolate milk, there is no better breakfast than this, it gives even a satisfaction to feel the bread and milk in your mouth at the same time. While as I watch the morning news, most of the news is sad, but it’s always good to stay informed of things that happen in the city I live in, especially living in Toronto which is a huge city.I’m taken from my first relaxing moment in the morning with my phone ringing. I think about not answering, since I think it’s fucking rude to call people in the morning, they do not know that this is a sacred time and deserves respect? But when I see that it is Anastasia, I think it is better to answer, I r
Where Love is Reborn Chapter One
It’s been a while since I left home to enjoy a movie or simply take pictures at the mall. Ethan says I wouldn’t even be able to prostitute myself on the street, since no man would want such a thin woman with such an ugly body. At first, I believed he said it just to try to attack me when we fought, who does not speak shit at the time of anger?! But now I realize that he really thinks these things and it makes me want to die, I wanted to be good enough for his love. I know it seems like I protect him, even after the assaults, but he was once a good man. At first he helped me with the lack of money and my problem with self-esteem, this should count as something good. I fell in love as soon as I looked into his beautiful green eyes, his black shoulder-length hair enchanted me, the pose he had was confident and quite attractive, his skin was so white that when I smiled at him I could notice the red coloring on his cheeks. In high school, I suffered a lot of racism, since I was the only

Ethan lies in bed and ignores me, as he always does. I take a deep breath again trying falsely to stay calm, but I’m tired of it all. The anger makes me totally uncontrolled to the point of making me have the courage to face it, which I never did out of fear. Even though it is not a good idea, deep down a voice tells me that I should have faced it long ago.— Tomorrow I will buy clothes and there is nothing you say that will stop me! I am a woman and I can go wherever I want and whenever I want, I get tired of you holding me at home. I speak with determination and cross my arms under my breasts, tired of being treated worse than dog. The man gets up from the bed and comes at me with wide steps. I widen my eyes and try to run when I realize what he will do, but I am pulled by my hair hard and my body falls to the ground. I try to get rid of the squeezing thrashing and ignoring the strong pain in my scalp, but the first slap catches me by surprise and makes one side of my face burn. Th

I catch him without thinking twice and leave the room. To prevent lock the door, will know if he wakes up and I’m still here. I pull my suitcase to the exit and get out as soon as possible of this house that only behind bad memories. I take an Uber to the bus station further away, when I get to my destination, some people stare at me curious, the pain of blows, I can walk just limping and yet my ribs scream. I see that the bus bound for Canada has arrived and buy a ticket to Toronto, is a big city and far from New York. I hope I can survive in a completely unknown country.*FOUR MONTHS LATER* I’ve been in Canada for four months now and to be honest, the experience has been horrible. Once I got my work visa, which fortunately took only three months to leave, I got a job as a waitress, but I did not stay long, since the owner decided to retire and travel the world. I was lucky to get my visa that fast, but it helped the country to be short of workers, since the retirement rate is incre
Where Love is Reborn Chapter four
I sigh and follow to the kitchen. I pour some coffee in the cup and drink as I look at nothing, thinking of a miserable life I had with a miserable man. I remember the call I have to make and run towards the room, take the newspaper inside my bag and digit the number, take the phone to my ear and starts calling. Four rings later, I am greeted by a gentle voice on the other side of the line.- Belmontt companies, good morning. What can I do for you? I swallow a little nervous with the new direction of my life. I’m afraid of not adapting at work and being sent away on the first day, I did a lot of housework in life, but never for other people.-Good morning! I read the classified in the newspaper and wanted to see if the vacancy for Cleaner is already complete. I cross my fingers and hope they haven’t filled the slot yet, if they have, I’m so fucked.- Let me see... No. Not yet busy, would you like to schedule an interview? I think for a moment if that’s what I really want, but I pr
Where Love is Reborn Chapter five
— Hi, I’m Katherine Amarantt. I think I spoke to you on the phone a couple days ago. I came for the job interview. I try to smile as friendly as possible and I hope I’m not looking crazy. It’s too early for me to be spontaneous.- Oh, yes! Mr. Belmontt is on the twentieth floor, but it was not with me that you spoke, certainly with his secretary. The girl returns my smile and puts her hair behind her ear. She is so beautiful that I got a twinge of envy, her red hair look beautiful in contrast to the sun, the freckles on her face make her a cute footprint, but the blue eyes give a more "sexy" and confident look. When I absorb what she said I get a fright, what do you mean "Mr. Belmontt"? Business owners don’t usually do that service.- Mr Belmontt? -He owns the company, right? He’s going to interview me? Isn’t that the secretary I spoke to?! I shoot several questions at once and feel the distress return. The woman just laughs at my despair, which makes me quite ashamed. Fuck, is it
Where Love is Reborn Chapter six
- You’re here for the Cleaner job interview, right? He asks to break the ice and immediately thanks him internally, I had no idea how to start a dialogue.- Yes, sir. I answer trying not to stutter, he is so intimidating and beautiful, I feel like an ant near him, at this moment I regret not having done the law school I wanted so much, I could be here running for another vacancy and would keep a dialogue with someone important.- I asked my secretary to call the reference numbers on her resume, luckily everyone spoke very well about her.Belmontt tilts his body forward and supports his arms on the table, thus making us closer.- I’m happy for that, I’ve always tried to be the best version of myself in everything I’ve ever done. I answer frankly, I may never have a job in something that could give me a career, but I always acted as if each one was my dream job. He smiles weakly and analyzes me for about a minute, I was already beginning to be bewildered when he finally decides to op

Where Love is Reborn Chapter Nineteen
The week passed quickly, as always. The days for me are the same, my life has become a fucking routine, so when it finally comes Friday night I just want to throw myself in bed and cry myself to sleep. It’s hard to try to find yourself again after so much time lost inside myself, after being trapped in a world where no woman should stay. It’s so dark and scary...The worst thing is that for years I thought I was guilty of everything, that my attitudes led me to live that way, I had no one to help me. I moved away from my friends and my parents, I had nothing and no one, it was just me and Ethan, but in fact it was always me and me.I wipe my tears and try to push away those thoughts that only give me trigger. I hear my phone beeping and I remember I have an appointment with Cassian. Damn mouth that only brings me confusion and trouble, if I had stayed silent I would not have to lie to him again. I hate lies, but they are now part of my life. I unlock the phone screen and see the notif
Where Love is Reborn Chapter eighteen
Today the day started complicated, when I was leaving home my shoe spoiled and I remembered that I did not take the clothes from the clothesline. Detail, it snowed all night and the clothes didn’t dry properly, missing having a dryer. I wore a very warm outfit and went to work, but the subway was closed due to bad weather, so unfortunately I had to go to work by taxi...........Now I’m rubbing the bathroom floor with my hands freezing. I’ve cleaned the hallway and the boss’s room, at least that. It’s past eleven o'clock and now is lunch time, I have to finish the bathroom before, I still have to dust the hallway, after doing this I will be free and just need to pretend I’m working until one in the afternoon.After half an hour of fighting, I finish the bathroom. I rub my hands on each other and try to put on warm gloves, sigh in approval and sit in the vent for a few moments, my legs are aching from kneeling to scrub the floor. When I feel that my legs are no longer hurting, I get up
Where Love is Reborn Chapter seventeen
After a troubled conversation with Cassian, I leave the room and Tásia waits for me with both hazelnut eyes very attentive. She looks like my neighbor, the owner Marta is so gossip, that if doubt she knows a gossip before it happens.- How was it? He fired you?She asks with palpable distress in her voice, almost smiling at her concern.- No, I begged him to stay, I think he took pity on me.I lie to my face and almost feel my nose grow.- You have no idea the relief I’m feeling, this company is not the same without you.Tásia smiles and I reciprocate. I approach her and hug her, I feel like Judas himself now, but I need to enjoy while I still have her friendship. Anastasia’s hug is so warm, it feels like the hug my mother gave me when I was little. I feel welcomed in it.- Now I need to leave, I’ll go back to work tomorrow.I talk after I get away from the warm hug.- All right. See you tomorrow, see if you can take my calls.Her eyes get serious, but I know she only cares about me.
Where Love is Reborn Chapter sixteen
About a week later...I never liked Monday, it was always the most tiring and boring day of the week, but this Monday I can say it’s the worst of my life, I felt bad for missing the service last week, but I’m already feeling terrible for so many things.This morning I decided to stop having ice cream, since in seven days I ate six pots, perhaps this is a little worrying. Now I’ll just stay in the brigadeiro, it may not be healthy, but at least I gave a diverse menu.Tásia tried to call me a few times, but I ignored how I was doing, I ignored the messages too, which have already passed three hundred, apparently she has plenty of time when the work ends. The company called me too, but I did not see it, since I did not even get the right phone. I even thought about returning, but gave up as soon as I dialed the number.I’m gonna shove another brigadeiro spoon in my mouth while I watch Chris Evans shirtless on TV. God forgive me, but damn it, what a hot man, I could stare for hours withou

I leave the bathroom wrapped in a towel I found in the drawer, for my luck Daniel is not, he must have gone to answer the door and fix breakfast. I walk in slow steps to the bed and see my clothes folded in a corner, next to a male blouse.I take a deep breath refusing to wear his blouse and wear my dress. The prom dress brings me so many memories... And now one more, when I get home the first thing I’m gonna do and put that dress in a place I can’t see it anymore. A knock on the door takes me from my daydreams, my eyes go to Daniel who is shirtless, but thank God he is in sweatpants, the man looks at me and smiles at me, as if we had not done something terrible.- I see you’re ready, that’s good. Breakfast has arrived, I went ahead and showered in the other bathroom.Daniel says and I just nod my head averting my eyes to the ground.— Look at that, Kate. You work cleaning my brother’s floor, so we’ll hardly ever see each other, but in compensation you’ll get along with Cassian and An
Where Love is Reborn Chapter fourteen
My head hurts so bad I have trouble opening my eyes. Last night Tásia made me drink and dance until I couldn’t take it anymore, other than that, I don’t remember anything. My right hand goes to my temples and with my thumb and index finger, I massage both sides to try to get rid of some of the pain.I did not even remember how bad the hangover was, if I remembered for sure would not have drunk so much to try to drown the sorrows. The guilt of lying, the anger of seeing Tásia cry made me stay out of me. After some time of trying, I finally open my eyes and look at the ceiling, which, strangely enough, has a huge chandelier. I don’t remember seeing this chandelier on my ceiling, am I that slow?Something weighs on my belly and I frown, did I drink so much that my belly became even heavy? My God I must be with some serious health problem now! My kidneys may have swollen, is that possible? I turn to the side and scream when I see a naked unknown man sleeping.Holy shit! Did I get married?
Where Love is Reborn Chapter thirteen
The elevator door closes before I can get in, I take my hands up to my hair and pull hard trying to ease my anger. Damn it! I shouldn’t have said that to Anastasia. Her relationship with my brother is harder than anyone can imagine. He liked her as a child, but she didn’t give a damn about him, on the contrary, she once threw a rock at Daniel’s head. That day was beautiful, I can’t deny it.Some time later she reciprocated his feelings and the two even had a childhood courtship, but at twenty Daniel left for the UK to go to college, the two had no contact until he returned five years later, but he was different, Something happened on that trip that made him colder and dumber than usual. People change from water to wine to guando want, and my brother is one of those people.I remember that Tásia suffered a lot when she saw that he no longer felt anything for her and only wanted to know about partying and women. I spent the whole weekend at her house listening to the cries and trying to
