There was nothing but hate in my gaze.I wasn't going to pretend otherwise.But it was also a mixture in the soul, saturating my emotions, he had crossed the tightrope of life and death without problem, which is why I should be content, overflowing with absolute happiness. However, keeping his lie in mind left me with a piece of ice stuck in my chest, hating every part of his being.The lurid fact had not been confirmed by him, and I already feared that it was true. Troy burned inside me just thinking that he dared to have sex with that Alexa, maybe if everything had stayed in one night, the present would be different, but the slip brought with it a consequence, a baby.I had forgotten about Smith by my side, I slyly brushed away my tears.“While the patient sleeps, breathing takes place with a machine called a ventilator, something that can be shocking to visitors. It's normal, you don't have to worry" he explained before allowing me to inquire.I nodded my head slightly, assenting.
"You've already seen the photos, that's enough to know that it's not an invention" he dared to say scathingly, drawing a Machiavellian smile on his scandalous fuchsia varnished lips.I covered my face, breathed in and out, I had to calm down, or I was going to leave my place and take her by that thin, pale neck.“What can be a setup, all in order to ruin my life”“No, I don't intend to harm anyone, and your life is already a mess. I must admit that the press played the cards very well. But we are not going to deviate from the subject" she launched victoriously.My blood burned with fury.“All I want is for you to leave us alone, you're a liar, I don't believe you. Maybe you're pregnant, but by some guy out there, not by Ismail as you claim”"You haven't told him, have you?" He blurted out with conviction. Then he laughed mischievously. Do it, show him the photos, see if he denies it."You're a bitch" I spat hotly, reluctantly leaving my drink payment on the table.So I left that site
Ismail decided to take a family vacation, take advantage of what was left of the summer. Going back to the island of Sardinia, albeit to a different area like Ogliastra, brought the memories to my head in an unforgettable thread. Being all in the family turned out to be a warmth that melted the ice forged by curveballs in our lives.Happiness blossomed, the middle ground of things was in place, and it was like being inside our own fairy tale. There was no trace of a consuming fear, nor was there insecurity twisting our present.Sun…The sand…And the waves of the sea lapping on the shore.Nothing warmer than feeling everything at once, attached to the joy of my children. Isaac and his sister made sand castles. How nice it was to watch them play, appreciate the most innocent scene of the two of them, having fun together. My beautiful Lizzy boasted of a pink swimsuit, but Isaac was not far behind, the paleness was replaced in his complexion by a tan.I wanted to take a photo, but I was
"What's wrong, Ismail?" I wanted to know guessed by his expression that it was good news."Tomorrow Brenda will come." I've talked to her, and she agreed to come.“Oh really?” I widened my eyes in surprise.When she organized the trip, she was included, however she declined for family reasons; explained that her cousin's husband had suffered a breakdown due to his terminal illness. I was sad, because I wanted Brenda to be with us, both Ismail and I felt that she was part of our family.I got up and hugged him happily. Barely a week there, but his absence seemed like a thousand years in solitude. Ismail hit me closer to him, nullifying even the half millimeter that separated us. Gently he caressed my back; inevitably a sob escaped my lips, I couldn't hold it back, and I blamed the hormones for my sensitivity at that moment.He separated us far enough, his long fingers subtly lifting my chin, making eye contact possible. I couldn't stop feeling a bunch of nerves looking at him like that
Dinner was fine.Ismail was no longer so bad at cooking, of course he left the hardest part up to me. But it was those moments that became incomparable, and we were united, moments only his and mine, no one else's. In the end he was in charge of washing the dishes; Isaac helped him. For my part, I took Lizzy to bed staying with her for a while, because I couldn't deny her sweet request that I read her a story. Without further ado, I searched the internet for an interesting one, one of the ones I had at home on paper, we forgot to pack.Luckily I found his favorite online, and narrated it to him. In the process, I saw her shake her head, struggling not to close her eyes, she wanted to hear everything even though she already knew it by heart. He interrupted me a couple of times, questioning as usual, the young princess's decision to reject the prince. When I read it to her I remembered to give her an answer, perhaps Brenda did too, but she, not satisfied with the answer, asked again.“L
Black eyes, deep as an eagle's; intimidating me without saying a single word. A gentleman with abundant gray hair, although I found a distant reflection of darkness in his strands. My gaze fell on her luggage, my heart skipped a beat, I already tied it all up.“He was Ismail's father”"Hello, Mariané Lombardi" I introduced myself, holding out my hand, unsure that her customs would decline the greeting.My voice trembled.I took the risk."I have no words to express how happy I am to meet you, sweet girl" he spoke with the Arabic accent marked in his words. Despite everything, he handled our language well. He leaned in, kissing the back of my hand. Can I give you a hug?How to say noI hugged her taking the initiative.I could feel a certain familiarity, that instant trust surrounding the union.“At last I know you, Mariané. How are you?” separated."I-I... I'm sorry, if I knew you were coming, I would have fixed myself" I commented embarrassed. He was still wearing his pajamas.An unw
Mohammed settled in one of the available rooms; He told me more about him, I a bit, hiding the dream that seized me. Sometimes, he didn't realize it, but he said things in his language that I didn't understand. So I just nodded. In the middle of the talk, his invitation to Dubai came up. I thanked him for his affable proposal, perhaps after giving birth, and after a while, we could travel to that place."Really, don't you want something to eat?" I inquired aware of the time.And the clock already told me that it was twelve noon.“You're hungry?” He wanted to know."A little," I whispered, not saying that I was actually dying”“We can go to a restaurant, it's my treat. And I call a taxi, too”“There's no need…”“The food, as in the rest of the country, is delicious. Come on, come with me. I'll take care of notifying Ismail” he insisted.He convinced me, or I didn't want to decline, I wouldn't be rude. I got up, and asked permission to fix myself. He understood staying waiting for me. I
When I asked you, you refused, and you didn't even think about it when dad invited you to eat" he commented without a trace of annoyance in his voice.I went along with my beloved captor."Don't tell me you're jealous. I couldn't refuse; besides I can't resist pizza and my baby and I were starving” I blurted out, it was my excuse."Now I'm starving, little flower" He purred hugging me from behind, his playful hands already making their way to my breasts.And my internal fire burned, a delicious and implacable fire that was already undoing me like a sheet of paper. Poor my ashes that surrendered to him, to his greedy fingers caressing my entire body without stopping."Ismail" I moaned, holding my breath.At what point did the coolness begin to leave us for a brilliant heat?"I want everything from you, Mariané." He bit the lobe of my ear. There was a vortex inside my body, lifting me up.And it was only the beginning."No, everyone is outside...”"And us in here" he added.I didn't see
