PRAYER BEFORE...

The day started out in turmoil and I needed to incorporate a sensible spirit to deal with Kaciana, because only God knows how insistent my mother can be. I love my mother with all of my strength, but when she decides on something, it's torture for sure, so I've avoided her since our last confrontation.

''You got fat? '' I stop the spoon of porridge in the middle of the path and turn my torso to meet the blue eyes, haughty and so similar to mine. “Because it looks like you've gained a few pounds.'' Complete, screwing up his face in displeasure as he analyzes me and walks until he is in front of me.

''Not. ''I whisper, pushing the bowl of food away, feeling the hunger pass.

''He is sure?” Her face is rounded, her cheeks more prominent and her ass barely fits in that chair. I close my eyes, holding back the tears, and take a deep breath.

“I need to go to work.'' I say, turning my back to get out of her field of vision and not present her with my tears.

    DAVID The sun invades my room through the window and the light disturbs my sleep, making me wake up early. Annoyed, I get up in a bad mood, kicking the pillow that falls from the bed onto my foot. Today is a bad day for many reasons, but the main one is that today was supposed to be a day of celebration, where my wife and I would have been married for eighteen years. Except she's dead, and I'm alive, so this day turned bad. Terrible. I take off my underwear and walk into the bathroom, opting for a cold shower. I don't deserve perks while she's in that hole, lifeless. Today is a day of seclusion, where I choose to be locked up at home, a recluse from the world. I prefer solitude these days, the pain of longing being my only company. So I end up freaking out when I see the woman sleeping on my couch. I curse, as I envision her face and remember my decision last night, bringing her here instead of leaving her in her own home, was a mistake. Owhat got into me? My mood deteriorates

    NellyThe man looks desolate, weakened in front of me, the opposite of what he has been showing me throughout this time together, because the pose of "nothing can shake me" has gone away, giving way to a broken man full of guilt. The lack of sparkle in his eyes was something I noticed right away when we were reintroduced, because the guy I idolized in my teens was full of life and good humor, there wasn't a day that I didn't get a smile from him, but I thought this was connected with his position as executive director of Bragança.I was wrong, I can see it clearly now. He's not well, his upturned nose and serious face are part of a mask he insists on wearing. I didn't realize what day it was, despite having that date fixed in my mind for many years.July 3rd.When I found out that he was married, it was as if happiness left me for the second time, first because of my father's death, then because I found out that the man I thought I loved already belonged to another woman. He had just

    DAVID I discard the coffee capsule in the trash and drink the entire contents of the cup, this fucking espresso machine was invented to save my life, there's no other explanation, I've been a self-confessed coffee addict since college and never learned the traditional way of leave it in the right spot. My years as an educator have only intensified that passion, and I don't know how I could handle the sleepless nights grading tests and planning lessons without a healthy dose of caffeine. The liquid runs hot down my throat and awakens my senses, pushing away the inhuman hangover I've been fighting since I woke up and preparing me for the meeting I can't cancel. I ended up going over the top last night, went to the club and fucked good BDSM style, the sex had an audience and I enjoyed the experience, although I don't like the exhibitionism too much. I check the time on my wristwatch and place the empty cup on the sink, grab my car key on the American kitchen counter and accelerate as ha

    Nelly If I had Cinderella's luck and a fairy godmother appeared in front of me, I would ask her to rip this shit feeling out of my chest, end the illusory ideas that have been coming back with everything since I found him again, disappear with all my past and take a few pounds🇧🇷 My mind is no longer following the man's bipolarity, and I'm starting to falter again. First, he implies that he has no idea who I am, then he demonstrates that he does remember, then he proposes to be friends with me and then he freaks out again, out of nowhere, for no reason. I type rather quickly, taking out all my frustration on the keyboard of my notebook. As if Carlota's return wasn't enough to disturb my judgment, now the feeling that I thought was something from adolescence is wanting to return with full force. The way he talks, walks and looks at me shakes my structures, cool, I can't deal with myself anymore. “Argh!” I slam my flat hand on the keyboard, accidentally pressing a sequence of random

    NELLY ''You go!" ''I am not going." ''Go." ''Not." Alice rolls her eyes from the other side of my phone screen, laying down on the floor as she tries to keep her phone balanced at face level and argue with me at the same time. My finger slides to the off button, and I'm tempted to press it. ''Do not even think about it." she growls on the other end of the line, pointing her index finger at the screen, suspicious of my intentions. I make a full face and pull my finger away. "I'm not thinking of anything.'' I defend myself, and she mumbles something I can't understand. “As if I didn't know you, Nelly. You always find a way to get away without committing yourself.'' She says, and I look offended, because I'm beyond offended. ''What are you talking about? I protest, glancing once more at the off button. That temptation. She snorts, returning to sit on his legs impatient. " Don't you have a sofa?" I ask, already bothered by her restlessness, and she glares at me. "Yes, but I prefer

    David I just realized that we are like gasoline and matches, waiting for the right moment to explode. I don't know why, but we are constantly at odds, pushing each other's limits without any manuals, just for sport. Her presence doesn't fill the void in my chest, but it almost makes me forget about all the shit that surrounds me on a daily basis. I still don't know if this is good or bad, but I know that staying away from her is no longer something I can do, and I swear on my mother, I tried. "Who will be at dinner?" I turn quickly to Nelly. "You." I involuntarily look at her extravagant cleavage and scold myself internally, forcing my irises to focus on the road instead of her. She ends up laughing, oblivious to my agonized state, and I raise an eyebrow. "Who else?" "I don't know, my mom just subpoenaed me.'' I shrug, forcing myself not to turn my face towards her again and admire her curvy body a little more, her dress is so tight I can see every part of her without too much ef

    David I give my full attention to the only two members of my family and I listen carefully to Dona Hordéllis' speech, my father hugs her from the side and kisses her cheek, then she plays a video and images of us on some trips begin to appear on the huge screen. Pictures of me when I was little and even pictures of me with pregnant Lígia and later with our son, my eyes instantly fill with tears, my mother takes the floor again and clears her throat, looking for me with her eyes. My stomach twists with the farewell atmosphere, memories of when I couldn't get over the death of my wife and son, I left Brazil for Europe invading me. It was a few months of loneliness until I decided to react, but looking at my parents I also feel a tinge of jealousy for their relationship. They have been together for a long time, but they still love each other. ''I love you.'' I read it from her lips and then my heart freezes, sensing something bad is coming, she opens her mouth and the sound comes out a

    NELLY Having an anxiety attack right after being kissed by the guy of your dreams is not nice, far from it, but throughout my twenty-five years I have gotten used to having these little moments of panic, although the cause this time is completely different from the previous ones. The great truth is that fear is part of my life, part of who I am. For this reason, I always safeguarded my psychology, kept myself in constant alert, prepared myself for unexpected occasions, because experiencing several humiliating situations led me to be like an iron pillar. But I was not prepared for this... I rest my two hands on the side wall of the Braganza mansion and make my way out of the garden, the small lights wrapped around the trees guide me to the exit and I thank the heavens that I can stand up while the air is missing in my lungs. David has no idea what he has just done, but he has done it. I haven't had a crisis like this since Edward... No! Thinking about him will only make me wors

    NELLY 5 years later... I don't think I'm an eclectic music person, I mean I can tolerate some styles of music, but hard rock is definitely not one of them. Well, well, maybe I'm just irritated that I woke up and didn't find David in bed. So where is he? The sound of the music tells me he's close, but how close? My legs and feet are hurting, but nothing compares to the constant throbbing in my back, and I need the message he promised. Not to mention the discomfort between my legs, but that part is good. Last night was crazy. I leave the room and go down the hallway in silence, taking the opportunity to stop by the five-year-old twins' room, they both hate following rules and follow their father everywhere. They are a faithful copy of my husband, despite having different personalities. Luca and Xavier are complete matches, which I'm grateful for, because they are extremely similar physically. At first, I had some difficulty identifying who was who. To be honest, my husband was the

The two women were having an excited conversation about motherhood and I didn't want to interrupt, however, when Eduardo appeared with a bouquet of orchids for my wife, I had to intervene.He gave me a single look and snorted.Bastard.Apparently, Alice went into labor the night before and couldn't come to the party. Nelly hugged the idiot and cried a little in her arms, promising that she would soon visit her goddaughter and friend.I pulled my wife back and kept my arm around her waist until it was time to get into the car, which happened right after our dance.She complained about needing to throw the bouquet, and I threw it towards Kiara.Nelly laughed when my friend cursed me.I shrugged and moved on.

My girl will be almost nine months into our marriage in two days, and I have to think about a possible fluke, like two babies arriving in the middle of the honeymoon. Therefore, I bought a beach house a few meters from the hospital and had it renovated according to its parameters of a perfect house.She wanted to wait to perform the ceremony after the lights went out, but I was so eager to call her my wife that I couldn't wait.

    NELLYI open my eyes with a sweet smile on my face, David caresses my belly in a delicate, affectionate and a little possessive way as if he was afraid of hurting me or something, but I realized seconds ago that no, he was contemplating, so mesmerized with the kicking show that our children were putting on that he didn't notice that I was watching him. I never thought I would witness this scene after everything we've experienced, but hearing my babies' father singing a lullaby was the best feeling I've ever felt.The throbbing between my legs also increased at the sexy sight, part of me wanted to reveal that I was awake and request that massage he suggested a few times last night, but I also didn't want to ruin the moment, so I rested my head. I went back on the pillow and continued pretending I was sleeping until I couldn't take it anymore. David began to sing a song about a street, a forest, shining stones, and an angel.My eyes filled with tears.Those damn hormones.'' Do you beli

    DAVIDWhen I left home this morning, I made it my mission to make our first night together after all this time special. Nelly always wanted to know a little more about my dark side and my perverse fantasies, but I was always afraid and controlled myself with her, but with all the events we've experienced I realized that my girl won't judge me or run away.We both need this.The club is operating normally upstairs, but downstairs I reserved it for just the two of us. Nelly never fully experienced my dominating side, she never knew how she is at my command and mercy, but today that will change. I crave her touch and taste more than air, I need to thrust into her without mercy to satisfy the beast inside me and, if I were any other man, I would treat her with affection and softness at this point in her pregnancy, but I don't. I am. We've been apart so long that I can't, I just can't make soft love. I think that's why I allowed him to sleep last night and didn't try anything even though I

    NELLY'' How can you be sure?''He gives me a cocky look and raises his left eyebrow.'' Because I locked it.''I keep my mouth open, looking between him and the door, thinking about when this happened until I remember to close my eyes for a few minutes and black out.'' All good? '' he asks, probably noticing my insecure expression. I lay back on the bed and feel him move. Within a second, David is standing next to me, forcing my face up, so I can look at him.'' Yes, I.. '' I close my eyes and count to five. '' I don't know if we should have sex.He frowns.'' You do not want?''I bite my lip and sigh, remembering that I need to talk to him about Kaciana and ask him to stop looking for her.'' It's not that, I just want you to take it easy.''The corners of his mouth turn up, and he starts twirling a strand of my hair around his ring finger.'' Baby, we're not going to have sex.''I grimace.'' No?''His smile widens.'' You seem disappointed.''I cough, trying to sit up, but carryi

    NELLYI run my hand over his face carefully, touching the recent bruises and marks. When Hordellis called to inform me that David had returned, my mind went blank and I didn't know how to act, I mean, first my mother and then him. It was too much. I only knew I was coming here when I got into the taxi and gave the name of the hospital to the driver.'' What happened? '' I whisper, unable to stop touching him. David Bragança is a handsome man even though he's all dressed up, cut that out, he's breathtaking.'' It doesn't matter. '' he says, his eyes dropping to my cleavage and looking away when he realizes I caught him.He clears his throat and runs his fingers through his hair, taking distance. I try not to show it, but it bothers me and brings back the feeling of loneliness.'' All good? You seem nervous. Oh, I need to call the doctor. '' I say, worried about the lack of color on her lips.''No.''he shouts, grabbing my hand at the last minute. '' I'm just nervous about our date. '' h

    DAVIDI stared at my apathetic form and the scratches on my face angrily, the man's reflection in the mirror wasn't me, at least, it didn't look like me. My face was thinner, my jaw was more visible, and I would need to see a dermatologist about the spots and burns.When I decided to leave Nelly in the middle of her pregnancy, I was sure that I would return in a few weeks and earn her forgiveness. My mistake. Finding Kaciana proved to be a difficult task from the beginning, but after I hired Arthur and the first clue emerged, my spirits were reinvigorated, and we left for South Africa. The woman was following my order to the letter and covering her tracks, until we bumped into someone who knew someone who saw her.Turns out the lead was false, and we fell into a trap, the man who contacted us was part of a local and unfortunate gang, they called themselves the Pirates of Urr. No idea what it meant, but the captain loved to torture, especially those with clothes on. Guys and gold watch

    NELLYMy body was frozen in place and everything felt delayed, from the sinking of his chest with each breath to the narrowing of his eyes.Kaciana walked past me after a long moment of silence and touched my shoulder gently, offering a warm smile that looked wrong on her face. She looked different, but I couldn't identify what it was as I closed the door behind me and followed her to the couch. I watched as she surveyed my living room and turned her nose up at the pictures on the wall. They weren't works of art worth millions, no, I bought them from a lady at the market near the mall the other day. She must have noticed and disapproved.So many questions were being thrown around in my head at this very moment.I stared at her figure for another full minute, hoping and hoping that she would be the first to speak, as I looked and looked for any difference, I was drawn to the golden ring with a small stone on top on her left-hand ring finger. No, she can't... Is she? I looked more close
