We walked slowly on the sand, wet from the water on the beach. We say goodbye to fantasy and paradise where we spend hours sharing anecdotes and drinking beer. I will miss this place. The thought of returning to stay at the hotel in some time is painful and devastating to me. I'll be going to Santo Domingo shortly. It's the saddest goodbye I've ever had. I haven't felt this distressed since my grandfather passed away."Let's put things in the trunk," he says.I put on my overcoat." Sure. "We finished arranging things and beers.The six o'clock breeze drives my brain crazy. It darkens. The sea looks restless and violent from here." Let's go inside before you catch the flu and are forced to stay with me. He smiles and opens the passenger door."What more would I like," I say without thinking.When I realize those words escaped my elusive lips, I curse.Hell, how could I say something like tha

My mother and grandmother interpreted things in their own way. As soon as he saw me get out of the Bentley with Julio hot on my heels, his eyes crossed his eyes from the simplest to the most sordid stories.Trying to escape a moment of sadness and loneliness, I escaped for Christmas and a two-week vacation to a place where I ended up becoming more entangled in existence. If before, with Reed's lies and slander, I had believed that my life needed a change, now I believe it more. I need to live, go to the beach that I long for and spend days in a cabin in the middle of nowhere with fruits and good bottles of red wine. The key is to plan every detail to the fullest, every day and every hour. That worked for me in court proceedings and in the most complicated cases. Planning my time and distributing it, according to the agenda, will help not to think about the man who gallantly walks by my side to the gallery of the two-level house that rises before us. Her perfume, as I saw in t

The streets are thick and damp from the drizzle that surely fell in the early morning while we all slept. Fruit stores — apples, grapes, pears, and raisins — are packed with lush lines of people who have left everything to the last minute. I could have been one of those if my mother and grandmother hadn't done the shopping without me for our dinner. After going through everything and placing it on the stainless steel table in the middle of the kitchen, I realized that it was all there. From raw, unseasoned pork leg to potatoes and carrots for Russian salad. They bought about four bottles of Tempranillo red wine and a gallon of rum. If something is clear in our tiny family, it is that at Christmas they should have a few drinks and celebrate that we are together one more year. The houses in Lace Praderas, They are huge elegant buildings, although some modernized and elevated as in search of the sky were converted into buildings with apartments for rent. The area where

The day passes quickly.In constant motion, I season and drink wine. I am finally relaxed after so many days of agony and tension in Queens. Then there are twenty-four hours with Julio. It was too much. I haven't been so pressured in so long. Now I have three cases, which are not difficult. We are clear on how to proceed, although you can always count on a judge to change the dates or an obstruction. That makes my job heavier, but I handle title and inheritance lawsuits easy. I specialized in Real Estate Law - rentals, real estate and others. From time to time I accept cases that have nothing to do with the specialty in which I have done the master's degree. Everyone knows that when I take a case it is to lead him to win. It usually happens when they are simple and common fish, those that other lawyers do not accept because they will not have as get money from them. On the other hand, I learned that there are those who cannot afford a good lawyer. but they deserve to be defen

I don't get out of my astonishment, but a smile slowly curves my lips.I pass my eyes through our clothes; We seem to go anywhere but a greasy street food place."You don't think I'm a lettuce and green juice guy, do you? Because if so, it means that I will have to show you the strength that I have in some places. He smiles with suggestive eyes. Is the lawyer willing to get a little dirty and lose her diet at Christmas?I feel the challenge in his words. Mand encourages me to show him that I can eat a chimi with this look."You can your Do it with that expensive white shirt? Or those pants that at first glance cost my monthly salary?I take off my belt and open the door. I receive the cool breeze of the twenty-fourth of December.It is quite a challenge to walk the twenty steps that separate us from the white plastic tables that complement the business props.So focused on my task of walking without falling or looking like it
