- So? How did it go? - Baby left the bench and came over to me.- I've been hired. - I shared with a smile.Baby hugged me, leaving me suddenly surprised.- Oops! I'm sorry. - She looked embarrassed. - I always do that.- That's why I can't get a boyfriend, I smother people. - She frowned in annoyance. I couldn't help but laugh a little.- Don't worry about it. - I consoled her. I already felt empathy for the girl I had just met. Perhaps because she had helped me.- You'll need the list of documents! - Baby ran back to the table and came back to me with a piece of paper. - Here it is.- I can't thank you enough. You've helped me so much. - I held her hand.You're welcome. - She squeezed my hand back. - Wow! I didn't even tell you my name. Sorry again. My name is Barbara, but everyone calls me Baby.- I know, I know. Your boss told me. - I smiled and she smiled back.- Would you like to have lunch with me? I'm going now and I can tell you what's waiting for you on Saturday. I'll also b

The evening passed without any more surprises and although Damien continued to stare at me intensely every time I approached to serve the table, he never spoke to me again. the table, he never spoke to me again.Aunt Meiry had told me that David had improved and had even managed to eat his dinner, which left me deeply relieved to go to work without any more worries. Around ten, everyone started to leave and the place became emptier and emptier until everyone left. I didn't get to see when Damien left because at the end of dinner I stayed in the kitchen to help clean up everything we used.- Ell, I know you've done a lot of work today, but I need someone to go to room two and wipe down the tables. The others will finish here and as there are only a few tables, it won't be too hard a job. Can you do that? - Baby held my shoulder.- Of course I can. - I put the bowl I was polishing on the table.- Thank you. - She smiled and put the flannel in my hand along with a cleaning product. - I'v

- Julia, did you give the rent money to Mr. Paulo as I asked? - I said as I opened the oven to check on the lasagna I was preparing for our lunch.- I did, Ell. And I told him everything you told me. - Julia replied without taking her eyes off her handset.- And what did he say?- He said that everything is all right and that now you don't owe anything. - I let out a sigh of relief. The rents had all been paid.I looked at the color of the cheese and inhaled the good smell of my little work of art. Cooking was something I enjoyed doing, especially cooking for my brothers during my time off. We were separated a lot, so I cherished those days because I could make something they liked to eat and the three of us could talk.- Where's David? - I closed the oven again and glanced at the clock. Just a few more minutes.- He's lying in his room. - Julia put down the phone and looked at me. - Will lunch be long?- No, it won't. - I started to arrange the plates on the table. - Everything shoul

¨But if he's not one of yours and he's not one of ours either... Then whose is he?"- He's from the navy. - Tk spoke next to me and I pushed him. - What?- Don't tell me the movie. - I replied.- You've already seen this movie, Ellen. - He said in a bored voice.- I know, but I don't like being told. - I replied and laughed, knowing there was no point in my answer.Takashi laughed too. I looked over to the other sofa and saw David asleep cuddled up with the Supernatural box set.- Thank you, David. - I turned to Takashi. - He was very happy.- It was nothing, Ell. - Tk smiled tenderly. - I wish I could do more for you. I know things haven't been easy for you Ellen... - the sentence suddenly died on his lips.- What is it, Tk?- Ellen, I know it's none of my business, but why did you leave with that guy on your last night at the club? - I was silent for a few moments. I didn't know how to answer that question, without bringing up new questions to be answered as well.answered. But befo

Damien's hand rested calmly on the curve of my waist, but he didn't seem to have a third of that calmness as we crossed the entrance to a restaurant in Copacabana. As I had feared, the place was exquisite and I could already see some people looking at us curiously from the side where the tables were spread out.- You said it would be a discreet place, Damien. - I stammered softly.- It will be, Darling. But this entrance is unavoidable. - He replied without looking at me.- Your table is ready, Mr. Mason. - A well-dressed man informed me and then gave me an unflattering look, making me cringe. - I'll take you.- I know the way. - Damien said harshly and the man seemed to pale. - Tell Frederico I've arrived.- Yes, sir. - The man nodded and walked away.Damien then began to lead us towards an entrance that I hadn't noticed before. It consisted of two glass doors framed by dark, well-kept wood. As soon as we passed through them, I came across a large garden with the most diverse species

Now all the cryptic words he had spoken the day I woke up in his house made sense. He expected me to sell myself to him.- Of course, things will extend a little beyond the bed. I also need someone to accompany me to certain places. - He said it impersonally, as if he were in a business transaction. - And you will also have to take on this role when necessary. But I'm willing to pay very well for these services. A price well above the average for this type of business. What's more, you'll be able to go to places like this, with me, of course. And I'll take care of all your personal expenses inside and outside the agreement. Then when the time comes, we'll undo the deal.I stared at him, feeling my heart in my throat. He spoke as if he was already sure of my consent to the disgusting deal. A cake of tears got stuck in my throat, because I had been foolish enough to think that maybe all his effort was for a more noble cause. How could I be such an idiot? Had I learned nothing from Steph

I stood alone, looking at my brother's haggard face.Maybe if I hadn't been so preoccupied with working so much. Maybe if I had paid more attention to him. Maybe I would have noticed any sign that something was wrong. But with the exception of the abdominal pain that David had presented, I couldn't see any other signs in his health. He always seemed like the usual intelligent, kind little boy. Willing to help me and always trying to make things easier for me.I stroked his knuckles and swallowed back a sob. His little face was serene and even though he was so haggard, he was still beautiful, like a little angel.I closed my eyelids and begged God not to let that unknown evil take my brother away from me. I couldn't be strong enough to cope with another loss.I opened my eyes again and placed a kiss on David's hand. Then I let my head fall back a little on the mattress of the bed as I felt the tears wet the sheet beneath my eyes. My little neutral Jimmy was strong. He wouldn't leave me

I spent longer than I really intended in the bathroom. The fact was that in there, I could let out my tears and my despair. There was no one watching and I didn't need to be strong. It was just me and my pain.I let the water envelop my body, so that the heat concentrated on my muscles and relaxed them little by little. I tried to keep my eyes closed at first, but the images of David in the hospital bed filled my mind in such a way that I realized that staring at the bathroom tiles would be better. Black. White. Black. White.The feeling of guilt put almost unbearable pressure on my temples, creating a throbbing pain. If I hadn't been so preoccupied with making money, I would surely have noticed some evidence that things weren't going well with my brother. Over the last few days he'd seemed down and when I was at home, he stayed in his room almost all the time. all the time in his room. But that wasn't unusual. David loved to stay in his room with his movies, series and posters of ar
