João Felipe
My parents had called me in the afternoon, informing me that they were already in my apartment and that the trip had been smooth. Despite missing them, I had to complete some deals before I could go home to see them.
As soon as I walked in, just because of the climate of the place, I could feel like I wasn't alone and that feeling of coming home and meeting my family was really good and I had no idea how much I missed it.
"Good night, son!" Soon my father got up from the couch where he was when I arrived and hugged me" I was missing my son very much. ''
He released me from his embrace and looked at me as if assessing my appearance. Before his gaze of displeasure and before he could say anything, I stepped forward and aske
João FelipeI stared, through the camera of the large computer screen in the apartment office, at Viviane leaving João Pedro's room, carrying a beautiful child in her arms, who, from what I could understand of all that madness, was her daughter with my brother.I was completely stunned. I couldn't believe my own eyes. At that moment I could understand the reason that led me to keep my distance from any information about Brazil and, consequently, about my own family. I was doing my best to escape the reality that was overwhelmingly exposing itself before me now, which was my brother and Viviane's wedding."Can anyone explain to me what's going on here?" I demanded bluntly.It had been over a week since my parents were in New York and I noticed that every night they
João FelipeAfter another sleepless night in which I was like a stalker, waiting for any post that was from Viviane or my brother, where I could have another crumb of information about them, I arrived at work quite grumpy and grumpy, something that my secretary, Natalie, made a point of pointing out when she had an opportunity."You're in dire need of some kind of fun, João Felipe No one can take that bad mood of hers anymore," she said as she took a few notes on her laptop."You're pretty brave to say that to your boss," I said arrogantly."Listen to what I said and you'll give me a reason. It's been nasty, again" This time she spoke and started to withdraw from my room.I had to
VivianeI could only be in one of my recent nightmares. That was it, I was sure. But the glass that fell from my hand on top of my feet was very real, apart from all the looks that turned towards me." Vivi, did you get hurt? " Mr. Rodolfo was already on my side when I managed to get out of the state of complete torpor I had entered when I came across my daughter in the arms of her real father."What happened, my daughter? It's white like a ghost! My mother spoke, taking my hand, worried.Soon I was sitting in one of the chairs that were in the garden, while I drank a glass of water and my daughter was still in the arms of João Felipe, something that until now I could not understand because she did not usually go into the arms of unknown people. Regardless of the kinship
João FelipeWe were already having dinner when my brother arrived and joined us. I thought we would have a tense and animosity dinner between us, but to my surprise, dinner took place in a mild mood, with everyone talking as before. Apparently happy with my "return" home, João Pedro talked a lot, without using his mocking tone, at least not critically, just in jest tone.Viviane, however, seemed to have been very angry with my presence and did not even go down to the family dinner, something that did not go unnoticed by anyone, because even my father commented on the fact.Which made me think back to the moment in the garden, when she saw me and couldn't hide all the horror she felt at my unexpected presence. For what reason?And then she married my brother and the
Viviane"When does your brother leave, to leave us alone? I can't stand him here anymore, surrounding my daughter all the time."João Pedro looked at me mockingly and I pretended not to understand what he meant by that look. I wouldn't get into this argument again that the daughter is also Felipe's because she's not!João Pedro had called me earlier as he was at a business meeting near my workplace and invited me to lunch together." I can't stand you complaining about Felipe's presence anymore," he said, making an expression of boredom."And I can't stand his presence anymore!"" You're so stressed, Vivi " He looked at me with a serious expression this time and spoke delica
João FelipeMy mother said she was worried about me because it wasn't healthy. I just smiled and blurted. I wasn't interested in getting involved with anyone at the time, not even casually and my friendships boiled down to the Alcântara family, however, Ricardo was always traveling and Nicolas was now married. I didn't want to go out with Henrique, because he was the so-called catcher and I wasn't in the mood to be with any woman.Now I was in a restaurant, having lunch with Luana, because we had met by chance when she went to present a business proposal to Mendes, on behalf of the company in which she worked and I attended the meeting, replacing my father, who had accompanied my mother in a routine consultation.We had exchanged our contacts the other time we bumped into each other, but this time she pulled su
Viviane João Pedro had decided to travel to New York to talk to Jack in person about them. I had fully supported him as we all deserved to be with the one we truly loved and I couldn't stop my best friend from being happy. If they decided to stay together, we would solve everything as best we could, because there was only one person who worried me, and that was my daughter. What others would think, I didn't care. We couldn't hold on to each other for the sake of appearances. That was our agreement when we decided to stay together. After the first day that João Felipe arrived and on which I refused to join the rest of the family for dinner, I decided that I could not continue to run away from meals with the family while Felipe was here. I didn't want family problems and while he monopolized the conversations at the table
João FelipeMy brother's trip to the United States triggered in me something I wasn't able to control. The need to be with Viviane, to have her for me, who was bigger than anything and I couldn't help but always be looking for her, looking for opportunities to talk to her.I never swallowed this marriage of hers to João Pedro, and now that he had simply traveled and left her alone, the feeling was even greater that there was something wrong with that relationship.Today, for example, it was Friday night and Viviane had gone out with her friends, not caring that her husband was thousands of miles away, and when he was close, they never left just the two of them. With the exception of that lunch a few days ago, something that even Mom always commented on.Another thing I didn't swallow either, was João Pedro's lame excuse for this trip to NY. The justification that I had been absent for a long time from the branch, which was still true because it had been almost two months since I had b
