CAMILA SIlVA As soon as I see their car pull out, I grab my things and put them in my purse. I put on my blazer again, put my unwavering face on my face, walking past my secretary just letting her know that we have adjourned for the day today, walking down to the garage. I need to go to my home, to the place I feel safe, especially close to my children.I open the back door of the Velar, placing there some of the drawings that I will take to finish at home. I leave my bag there, taking the driver's seat, put on the radio a song and go listening, enjoying my own company. When we enjoy being alone, when we learn to value our own company, that's when we are ready to enter into a relationship. So when we start in a new relationship, we will accept nothing less than to be treated in the way that we know we deserve.I myself am ready, I just haven't started because I don't feel ready. My children are in such a good phase, I don't want to introduce anyone to them, I don't want to commit my
ETHAN SALVATOREI take several deep breaths, trying to concentrate on my breathing to calm myself down. Camila is in a way that I have never seen and clearly was not ready to see. Everything I say she has a ready answer, but it is an answer that is more like an out.The look that was once directed at me filled with lust, desires and promises. Nowadays it passes to me sorrow, resentment and indifference. At the end of it all, I saw a sparkle in her eyes when they met mine. I felt at home with the intensity that she looked at me, with the way her lips opened and formed the most beautiful smile I have ever seen in my life.Well, at least that smile hasn't changed. I could say that it actually just got wider. I have never seen a more beautiful smile than the one Camila gave to our daughter while playing with her. A moment so pure, that seems to be so ordinary for them, but that still carries its unique beauty, carries its meaning and above all, a happiness that I have never seen.Happines
CAMILA SILVAI put on my headset, leaving it on as loud as possible. While Ed Sheeran is playing in my ears, I leave the house, cross the street and start running along the shore.Not many hours had passed since dawn, so the beach was empty. Which is good, the blue of the sky blending with the blue of the sea. I remove my headset, listening to the sound of the waves breaking in the most perfect magnitude of nature. I could hear it perfectly, after all it is too early in the morning for the noise of the cars to disturb me.I close my eyes, feeling the cold breeze on my face. At that very moment I travel, I was no longer in Copacabana, but somewhere in the ocean. I was in Ethan's arms, staring at the sea in front of us, waiting for the speedboat that would take us to our next tour. We were only a few days away from reaching our destination in the Maldives.I turned my face, meeting his gaze. I take a deep breath, feeling love and affection for that man. My heart overflows with affection
CAMILA SILVAI put my head between my hands, feeling my hair making a curtain in front of me. My head is about to explode, I feel that at any moment the world is going to fall on my shoulders. There has been a serious problem in the company, especially in my department. Since I am responsible for everything, in a way the blame is falling on me. A gigantic pressure is being put on me.Someone in the department took the blueprints of a future construction, a big project. They simply handed it over to the competitor company that did the construction and have already opened. The worst of it all? The company for which the project was done and mortal enemy, from other countries already, gives that had hired us.We had to stop the construction quickly, now I have an overnight deadline to tinker with this large project and turn the building, which started to be done, into something totally different. I have little time, nothing favorable situations to change this project that was made by myse
CAMILA SIlVA Since I was a little girl one of the things my family fights me most about is the wonderful fact that I leave everything to be done at the last minute. Few are the things that I plan ahead for, most of them I do at the last minute.The twins' room, for example, I paid to set it up when I was already in the hospital with them in my arms.Doing everything on short notice keeps me from getting even more anxious for the event. I am sure that if I had planned the room since I found out their gender, I would have changed it more than a thousand times with such indecision and anxiety.My sister doesn't like my lack of planning very much. Especially after I left her to organize her bachelorette party on the day of the party, which is today. I believe that she only didn't speak more in my ear because of what happened yesterday at the company, otherwise she would have spoken even more.But what can I do if I am one of those people who do not plan their life, but live it intensely?
Camila SilvaI take a deep breath, holding back the tears. It's an inexplicable emotion to see my sister, my little girl, dressed as a bride, just a few hours before she walks up the aisle and says the long dreamed-of yes to the man who won her heart after everything she's been through.I am older than her only a few minutes, but the feeling I have is that it is years. I was her support when she found out she was pregnant when she was only sixteen. I was by her side, giving her the strength to carry on when Ana's father left her alone, a teenager, with a child in her belly. I have been by her side in all moments, be them good or not.Even when I was in the United States, my heart was always with my family. My biggest reason for living. I didn't abandon them at any time. So much so that my greatest desire was to go back and help them through the hurricane, but I needed to stay. The money that I was able to get was important, even more so when converting from dollars to reals.Today I w
CAMILA SILVA The music starts playing and my mother enters with Lucas. She comes down the right side of the stairs, he the left, until they meet at the part where the two stairs become one. They continue down the stairs, walking slowly, posing for pictures. When my mother sits in her chair, my brother leaves and goes up the side stairs. He needed to go in with the bride.The music stops and the best man's starts. As we are the first, I walk towards Ethan, crossing our arms, continuing on our way. I pose for the pictures, doing my best to ignore the tingling I felt with his arm around mine, having him so close.Ethan, once again, looks extremely hot in this suit. He is definitely the man with the most expensive suit at this entire wedding. I am not surprised, after all I could expect nothing less from Salvatore. But as always, dressed in a suit perfectly made for him, showing off his chest and making him even hotter than he already is by nature.I can say anything, I can call him ever
CAMILA SILVA I celebrated with my cousin, Ezequiel, entering the dance just the two of us. I even tried to convince my brother otherwise, but he wanted to bring the Salvatore family to enjoy a night out Rio style. As I mentioned before, getting an idea out of Lucas' head is almost impossible.My plans are to enjoy the night without end, just enjoy. I knew I couldn't do this with the constant presence of that family. Especially with him so close to me. With all this in mind, I decided to leave them out of my evening.I made a deal with Ezequiel. We went upstairs without anyone noticing, I changed clothes quickly, replacing my long dress for leather shorts, with a shiny single-front top. I am planning to do even more work than I did yesterday. I don't know when my next valley night will be, so I better make the most of tonight.As she finished getting ready, we went out the back door. I was as careful as I could be, I didn't want anyone to recognize me, I didn't want to run the risk th
