CATALINA

My head throbbed.

Hands still tied behind my back. Ankles still bound.

Duct tape burning my mouth to prevent me from saying more annoying words to Pablo.

I began thinking of ways to die…

Starvation…

Dehydration…

Cutting my wrists and bleeding to death…

Anything to kill Pablo's silly dream of having me.

He was across the room, plotting something with his right hand man.

I tested the ropes again. Nothing. Just the cruel friction cutting into my skin. My shoulders ached. My jaw ached from the slap. My heart ached worst of all.

I couldn't help but think about Miguel. Did he have a good reason for leaving me here? It seemed odd that Miguel would abandon me. Maybe he had a plan….he may have lied to me about his marital status but did he lie about his feelings for me? We were finally getting closer or was that a lie too?

“Gather the guys outside, we're leaving now,” I heard Pablo say.

I began to protest with muffled screams…it was useless, I was powerless against these highly dang

    CATALINA“Carlos, I didn't see you all day after I left the restaurant. Are you okay?”He gave a faint smile. “You look so happy boss, it makes me happy.”I had a bad feeling about this. “What is it Carlos?”“I came to officially tender my resignation.” He handed me an envelope. “I couldn't just leave without saying goodbye.”I pushed it away. “You're not going anywhere Carlos, I won't let you go.”“You have to. I can't stay here.”“No! You're just being selfish. You can't just leave me…we've been through a lot together. What about Alejandro? You know he likes you, you can't just go.”“So you want me to stay? And watch you and Miguel be in love? It's going to be hard for me.”I hesitated. “But…”“Let him go princesa.”Miguel came out of the room and extended his hand to Carlos for a handshake. “Thank you for being there for her, I can tell she really valued your company.”Carlos took Miguel's hand. “And I'm glad you're alive, she was a mess without you.”I didn't like the idea of Car

    MIGUELShe had the same look as Catalina. They were both too stunned to even react. Like Catalina, I had to walk over and touch her too to make her believe.“Is it really you? Ay dios mío! You're alive?”Catalina ran over and hugged Gabriella. “He really is Gabriella!” They both jumped up happily, celebrating. So these two finally became friends? I thought.After their little celebration, Gabriella gave me a hug.“I thought I wasn't going to get a hug from you in this lifetime,” I said, patting her back.“Just this one time, let me give my little brother a hug.” We were all seated now. Gabriella, Carmina, Catalina and I.I explained everything to them up until how I dealt with Pablo.Gabriella laughed. “Catalina was ready to kill whoever killed Pablo, she kept saying Pablo's life was hers to end.”“Fierce as always,” I complimented.But Catalina had angry eyes and those eyes were fixed on Carmina.“If he was alive and with you, didn't you think his family deserved to know?”Carmin

    CATALINA“He's dead,” Carlos said again.I couldn't believe my ears. “How come? We've been looking for him for ages now. What happened?”“Apparently someone leaked all his crimes and location to the police. Interpol arrested him and shipped him back here in Mexico, but guess what?”“I can't guess. Just tell me..”“He died in prison. They say he committed suicide but—”“Someone killed him,” I said. “There's no way Pablo will commit suicide.”Carlos agreed with me. “I have to say, whoever killed him is smart.”I nodded. “They didn't want to commit a crime in another country so they made sure he was brought back here.”Carlos nodded. “So whoever killed him…”“Has connections here in Mexico,” I completed.“Very strong connections to be able to kill someone in prison.”“Fuck!” I screamed. “Who the hell did that?!”Gabriella held me steady. “Shouldn't you be happy? You've wanted to kill Pablo for over two years now.”“You don't get it Gabriella, Pablo's life was mine to take. Mine! Every ni

    CATALINAOver the weeks, Carlos and I grew closer. We went on dates and enjoyed each other’s company. He never pressured me into a relationship and kept a clear line between our personal connection and work responsibilities. His professionalism was impressive, and I genuinely appreciated that.“I just think you guys are wasting so much time,” Gabriella said.“We're taking things slow,” I countered.“That's not how I see it.”“You've not been in a relationship for how long now? I shouldn't be taking advice from you.”“Ouch,” she held her chest. “That hurt.”“It didn't. You enjoy your solitude.”She laughed. “You know me too well.”“Of course.”With a more serious tone, she said. “I might be single, but I know a few tricks and I think I know what you can do.”“What?” I asked.“Kiss him!”I froze at the thought of kissing Carlos. “I've never thought about kissing Carlos.”“You have to think about it and try it.”“Ugh, no way!” Just the idea of kissing Carlos made my skin crawl.Gabriella

    MIGUELI was making progress. After working hard for weeks, I was able to walk now with a cane, that was a significant progress on my part. As I slowly got better, I could now focus on other important tasks at hand.So I had a serious conversation with Carmina.“How can we find Pablo fast?” I asked, my tone serious.She rolled her eyes at me. “Here we go again. Catalina has been trying for years, what makes you think you can find him any faster?” “Because I have you, and I know what your father is capable of.”Carmina gave a smug smile. “It would have been easier if you married me, right? Pablo wouldn't have come near our wedding venue, we'd have smelled him from miles away.”I shot her a look. “Be serious, Carmina.”“Okay, I'll be serious,” she leaned in, her tone shifting. “We can't help you Miguel.”“Why?”She sat beside me. “Pablo is not our problem, he didn't do anything to us so we can't get involved in your personal vendetta.”“But I'm your ally, and he tried to kill me.”She

    CATALINAAfter giving serious thought to what Gabriella said, I decided to do something different a week after.Carlos and I had just wrapped up an important meeting when I asked him to stick around for a more private discussion.Since our last conversation, Carlos had behaved as if nothing had happened, it was like it had been wiped from his memory.Even now, as he stood waiting to hear why I wanted to speak with him, his face remained unreadable, the same composed look he always wore when expecting instructions from me.“So uhm..,” I started. “Gabriella talked some sense into me and I realized that truly I've been so hard on Alejandro. I don't treat him like a normal kid and it might affect him later in life when he grows up.”Carlos blinked. “Okay…”I cleared my throat. “I was thinking of taking him to a park or a playground, any one of those. And I wanted to ask if you'd like to come with us, Alejandro likes you a lot and I'm sure he'll be happy if you're there too.”Carlos was qu
