I do this only because of the times she has had to deal with me being drunk, and although I think it's a lousy idea, because I have no doubt that some asshole will take pictures of me being with her, just this once I will resign myself to the shit that the fucking showbiz says and even worse: to Alice's reproaches.

Anyway, she doesn't mean anything to me other than being the mother of my daughter.

I park the car and walk smoothly into the place. I walk all over the place trying to spot Rebecca, but among so many people, I find it difficult to locate her.

I decide to dial her phone, but to no avail but to no avail as she doesn't answer. Perfect, she makes me come and he doesn't answer the fucking phone.

About a millennium later, I've looked for her in every nook and cranny but one: the bathrooms. If she's not there, I'm out of here.

I head for the goddamn women's

women's bathroom. I happen to be groped all the way down the hallway until I get there. Several of the women, who are eviden

    "Where are you taking me?" I exclaim in distress, trying to break free in vain."I won't tell you again, shut up."Shortly after, I feel the plane take off, and I close my eyes due to the terrible sensation. I can't believe I'm going to die like this.Everything that happens to me is worse than the previous. It's as if the universe is conspiring against me.Thinking of my mom and my family makes me cry; I probably won't see them again. Not them, not my friends... And worst of all, I'll die without knowing about him. Without seeing him again.Oh, God, why have you made me go through all of this? Hasn't there been enough suffering?I have no idea how much time passes, but my eyes feel heavy and my eyelids close almost automatically. I'm very tired and I succumb to sleep."Hey, wake up. Hey," I hear someone saying, this time with an increased tone of voice.My brain doesn't respond to this until I'm abruptly lifted from the seat, causing all traces of drowsiness to leave my body."What's

    After a day of work and my boss randomly giving me an unwanted vacation, I went out to have lunch with my friend from the company."Juliette," Chloé calls my name."Yes?""It's not her... Alice Bonnet?" she says with an affected voice, alerting my senses.I turn to where Chloé points, and immediately spot the woman with long blonde hair and a slender figure pushing a baby carriage.Her daughter."Wait for me here," I ask my friend."But... Julie!"I start running to catch up with the woman walking ahead of me.This is my chance if I finally want to know about him."Alice," I call her name, taking her by the arm as I catch up, causing her to turn towards me.I can't describe the expression that crosses her face when she sees me. I don't think either of us expected this."Let go of me," she snaps with disgust, and I quickly withdraw my hand. "It's unthinkable that one can't even walk down the street without running into this kind of scum.""Alice, please listen to me," I ask, following

    Minutes pass, and an incoming call puts me on alert, immediately answering my phone. Perhaps by some miracle, I can hear his voice again."Good evening, beautiful," it's Paul who greets me."Paul," I exclaim, surprised because I haven't heard from him in a while. "How have you been?""I should be asking you that, but I don't need to ask to know the answer.""I'm just trying to survive," that's all I say."You are undoubtedly one of the strongest people I've ever known," he replies, echoing Isabella's words."Or just a coward clinging to life.""Of course not, and I don't want you to call yourself that ever again, okay, young lady?" he scolds me, managing to bring a slight smile to my face for a moment.Paul often acts like a father figure to me."Okay.""I suppose you're wondering why I called you.""Yes."And I don't know why I have a faint hope that it might be something good when everything has been bad news."Well, it's been exactly two years," he says, but I don't understand what

    Two years later.Juliette's POVI type quickly in front of the computer despite the cramps in my fingers and the growing pain in my back.I don't know how long I've been here, but I'm focused on finishing this report for the last project I coordinated at the company. I had a week to present it, but I think I'll finish it in three days, and now I'll have to find something else to focus on after that.I suppose I'll have to tell Sebastien to assign me more clients, other projects, or anything that keeps me so busy that I only have to come home to sleep.That's how my routine has been for the past few years, spending most of my day at work to disconnect from the nightmare my life has become.I think it's this job that keeps me sane, preventing me from completely losing it."Juliette, are you listening?" I suddenly hear someone say, pulling me out of my thoughts."Isabella," I mumble as I see her standing in front of me, observing me with her head tilted. "Do you need something?""Julie,

    “You have no idea how many times I seriously questioned if you were real. You appeared and gave me back the will to live, to laugh, and taught me that I could love and be loved. I told you about how I lost my family and how I was ruthlessly betrayed by the woman I thought I loved, but what I feel for you is incomparable. You were my main reason to live, and no one will ever understand the immeasurable, intense, profound, and real love I have for you. I'm sorry for this, and I hope you can forgive me."When I try to listen to the message again, it's no longer available, and my heart breaks with pain.I run to the entrance when we arrive at the hospital and collide with someone while crossing the door, heading towards the nurse at the reception."Miss," I call her attention."Good evening, are you okay?" she asks, assessing me from head to toe."I-I need information about a patient who was supposed to be transferred here. It's Gérard Lombardi… um…" I try to speak coherently despite havi

    As I entered the apartment, I immediately headed towards the bathroom, taking off everything I was wearing. I can still feel his scent lingering on my skin, and the last thing I want is to have his smell on my body.I scrub myself over and over, almost scraping my skin, as if this could erase the traces of what we did yesterday. But when I see the marks that remain and won't go away, it becomes impossible not to cry.I despise myself for what I did to Damien, for what I did to myself. Being strong all this time, only to end up like this.I haven't even checked my cell phone; I'm terrified of seeing a message or a call from Damien and having to respond. I don't know if I'll be able to confess what happened, let alone if I'll be able to face him after this.I berate myself for what happened, over and over again. I cry for hours on end and refuse to answer the phone, which has rung several times.When I look out the window, I notice that it's night already, and I haven't eaten anything a
