I surround her with my arms and attach her to my body, her face rests on the curve of my neck and I can feel her breathing calming down."Tell me you take care of yourself," I say, after a few minutes in this position, I feel her nod."My period is crazier than me, so I need to take pills," she makes me laugh, she ends up laughing with me and raises her face to meet my eyes.The moonlight is the only one that softly illuminates the living room of her apartment, even so her eyes look beautiful, now I look at her more beautiful."That's good..." I snort, with a smile, smoothing two blonde curls that fall on her forehead.She moves a bit to get off the furniture and I help her to then adjust my boxers and my pants. I manage to see that she takes her panties and goes to the light switch, just when she turns it on, a sound coming from the door of her apartment makes us shudder.It just can't be.Damn Malcom is holding Kate's friend astride the door, touching both of them in forbidden place
I leave that office leaving a happy Kate behind that door, I can't help but laugh once inside my elevator, I don't know what to expect when I return. I take my cell phone once in the conference room and dial Malcom's number, he's not around but if he hasn't come I swear I'll hit him when I see him.“Hello? He answers almost immediately."Where the hell are you?"“Behind you.And I turn around, yes there he is, and he's wearing huge sunglasses with a gray”green suit, at least he's got his hair done. I look at him, separating my cell phone from my ear and I hang up the call, I take his glasses and remove them from his eyes; he blinks several times for clarity, squeezes his eyes shut and massages his temple.At that precise moment the image of Malcom with Natalie comes to my head and I can't help but laugh.Malcom frowns and looks at me with a smile."What a good mood you bring, Centinelo." Something tells me you had a good time last night.” He winks."No more than you" I wink at my eye
Kate stands there, doesn't say a word, doesn't mention anything, just looks at them as Stefanie jumps up from her spot and walks over to her at a brisk pace.“Kate!! he says, wrapping his arms around her, Kate just looking at me.I imagine you think I had something to do with it."Stephanie?" she says incredulously, once she has taken her eyes off me.Kate returns her effusive hug, her mother stands up and goes to her, with one hand on her waist and the other on her mouth, fixing Kate from head to toe.“Kate Jane Green “her mother crosses her arms “or Centinelo, whatever… “I smile “Why the hell didn't you answer my calls?Kate doesn't answer and Stefanie finally lets her breathe when her mother does the same and she tries to hug him back as best she can, her eyes come back to me and I know what's going through her head.Why didn't they tell me they were coming? she asks, once she has recovered from the trauma that these two people have caused her, and she turns her hateful gaze on me.
I'm not sure if that was too hasty, but that's what I feel, I'm in love with her... I don't know how it happened, I don't know when and I don't know why... of course I know why, she's the only person that has made me change my day completely since I met her.I've never mentioned these words and saying them feels so good… even under her confused look, I don't care that she doesn't feel it yet, but I can't keep this to myself anymore.I haven't even known myself since she came into my life."Santiago..." he speaks, his voice cracking, his eyes are wet and for a moment I can't read his expression”“Kate, don't feel obligated to say it, I understand if you still don't feel the same “I caress his cheek “I don't blame you, I admit that I was a little rude to you at the beginning.“A little? He ironically makes me smile.That's why I love her, she always makes me smile.“I beg your pardon “a tear comes out of her eye in a flash, I wipe that tear away. I don't know if she's crying because of
“Potato? he asks, I look at Mr. Green and yes it's true, they are quite alike, except for Mr. Kateander's gray hair peeking through his blond hair, and the little wrinkles around his green eyes, as clear as hers. she, at Kate's age, must have been identical except that in masculine, they look at each other without saying a word."Mr. Green, it's nice to meet you in person." I had to break the awkward silence, he looks up at me and smiles, I walk up to him and extend my hand, he does the same and shakes it, he looks quite friendly."The pleasure is mine, Mr. Centinelo," he says."Santiago please," I say politely, and he nods, now turning his gaze to Kate."How are you Kate?" he asks, flashing a pleasant smile at Kate."Fine," she answers, arching the corner of her lips but I know her well and I know that it's a pretty fake smile, plus awkward silence and I don't know what to do anymore."It's normal that Kate doesn't talk to anyone about the brand of wine we own," he finally adds, I fe
And at that precise moment some noisemakers start to sound from the other side and some whistles, I look at Kate and she looks at me in bewilderment, I'm dying of laughter, I can't stand it anymore, I want to record this to make fun of Malcom for the rest of his life. life.“You two just met,” Kate says, after a few minutes of chatter from the other line and laughter from us.“Y? Youeezz too and azzi get marriedrrorn."This was different," I interrupt Malcom, showing myself serious, that he knows that leaving my company alone is not right.“Katexx, can you believe...believe it... “now Natalie takes the cell phone and murmurs” we didn't have sex until we got married.But it's on loudspeaker so even if he whispers I hear it, I hold back my laughter because only Kate was supposed to know that."Wow, your mom would love to hear that, Natalie," she replies, with mock excitement, of course, every mother would love to know that her daughter got married in Las Vegas and drunk.“Santiagorr “no
A sudden movement makes me come out of the deep sleep in which I was, I open my eyes and the sunlight that makes its way through the trees hits my vision, I look around me and it takes me a few seconds to remember that I am in the house of Kate's family and that Mr. Green's gift is supposed to come today.“What time is it? I ask sleepily, Kate looks at his watch and then back at me."Eight o'clock" I get out of bed like a spring, the gift will no longer be a gift if Mr. Kateander sees it.“What's wrong? Kate says, walking behind me as I start to brush my teeth.“The regulation of your...“What? I spit out the toothpaste and meet Kate's gaze in the mirror over the sink."Our present for your father should be here by now," I continue brushing my teeth.“How about our gift? “he walks towards me and stands facing one of my sides “What did you buy him?I finish brushing my teeth to answer his question."What does your father love apart from wine?" I question, wiping my hands on a towel.“C
The ambulance is taking a long time and Kate is so nervous that I fear that at any moment she will also faint, I quickly go to look for her mother, warning Dr. Cruz that if he comes near I will wring his neck.Mrs. Green, hearing that Stefanie has fainted because of this Evan and that she has a bump on the lip and that that guy was going to hit Kate too, she took a knife and ran out of the kitchen, I had to chase her and take away the blessed knife, because being Kate's mother I know how he can react, although that idiot deserves it, that means jail.Grandma runs first and Mrs. Alicia is followed taking off her platform shoes, they reach where Kate and Stefanie are. Evan tries to approach them when he sees everyone alarmed and it is that he, being a doctor, is the only one who knows what to do, although when he hears him speak, the grandmother throws him one of the platform shoes that Mrs. Alicia was holding in her hands, apparently she knows what to do and gives some instructions to
