It had been almost seven years since the day of his birth; it had been a little bit longer since she knew she was pregnant with Gabriel’s baby. So many lies, so much time had gone and she never came back to say a word to Alice’s son, who kept suffering day by day after his mistake. Alice did not deserve to be excused; Alice had nothing to say to back herself up. All she had done until that moment was a mistake. How come she dared to hide that baby that was not only hers but Nancy’s son as well? How come she could live like that for over six years? Her son, that little angel, just because he was too innocent to understand, she decided to decide for him? She could not be a good mom since she had done that t her own son.Nancy’s son made a mistake with the woman who loved him the most. Nancy was aware of that. She knew a woman can’t forget what a man did but that didn’t give the right to act like that. In the same way as Alice, Nancy had been cheated on too. Who was Alice after all to de
Believing that everything is over at the moment we confess the truth, the only truth that kept us awake in the nights we most would've wanted to sleep and forget everything is just a lie, a nightmare, and as soon as the sun rises, we'll get back to our reality, it as untrue as the same lie. Nothing is over when lies turn into truth, new cycles begin. Whether it's for good or for the worst.A sea of emotions was experimented at the moment. Alice, Joseph and Nancy, how many years had it been since the moment Nancy felt alive? How many years had it been since the moment Alice felt light with herself? How many years had it been until Joseph felt important and loved not only by his mother and aunt? He had not met his father but he knew he was going to love him as much as his grandmother was loving him. Now, Joshep could write thousands of letters and be sure they were going to be delivered because, in the end, there was indeed someone who was going to read him, read that little heart of h
A castle, a castle that had submerged from the ruins that a wrecking ball left one day, a wrecking ball that never cared of the pain it had provoked in the heart, a wrecking ball that just knew how to hurt, how to destroy, how to betray but never, how to pay off the love that the queen whose castle was destroyed was offering with every single gaze she dedicated to that wrecking wall. Countless times, for over five months, that wrecking laughed in her face when it saw what it had done to her and then, it just walked away. He never deserved her pure love, he never deserved her heart, her body, her tears, but above all, he never deserved the miracle she had carried in her being for over 9 months. The door of that castle opened in front of his eyes, those sparky eyes that existed just for her, he was not a saver, he was not a saint, he did not deserve the shiny light around her she was lighting up his way with, he did not deserve to be healed by that light. What good on earth did he d
Have you ever noticed the stolen gazes? Have you ever seen the yearning in his or her eyes? The merge between two soul, the merge between earth and rain, the merge between her and him, the merge between just two people who fell in love without realizing it.It was true they were young when they met, it was true he had fallen in love without realizing, it was true they were meant to be all along. Having him, having her at that moment when finally everything had been said, had made them touch paradise while being aware that mistakes should not be called mistakes if they had been committed for the first time.How is it possible not to make any mistakes when we are human beings? How is it possible to be perfect when the world that is welcoming us is everything, but perfect?If she was afraid one day in her own skin, she wouldn't remember it anymore. All that time thinking there was no man on earth that could be different from the man she loved and wrecked her, there was no man who could
Yes, it was possible to feel the heart full of happiness in the same way, it was possible to feel it strangely ill. Ian was her everything. Ian was all she could ask for but, regrettably, she had a date with her past. Nancy was not going to stop until she said the truth but, if only she could understand how hard it was. As soon as the smile on the face of Alice was erased, without hesitation, she took her cellphone, the keys of her sister's car and headed out, trying not to look behind. There was so much to explain to Ian but, that was not the moment to talk to him. Her only purpose was to gather enough courage to face her mother-in-law. She was not ready to talk to Gabriel and Nancy had to understand that. Maybe, it was too easy to focus on her problems first before stopping just a second and hear out her surroundings. Maybe it was better to let herself be loved before loving someone. Maybe Ian was full-aware of her feelings and she didn't need to let him know that when, for her,
If only someone had told her she was not weak for showing him her feelings, if someone just had told her she would do right if she had stopped him in the mere instant her heart asked her to do that, maybe her heart would feel as heavy as she was feeling it.She had made many mistakes in her short life and, apparently, that was the way of her to act even if her inside was being torn apart.It was true, what begins is fated to end someday, but, if the decision to finish what had not started was upon the person he loved with his entire life that he felt not even a whole life would be enough to tell her how much he loved her. What about that? She was being an immature young mom again. He loved her innocence, but what she was doing was not due to her innocence but her cowardice in feeling her son away as soon as he met his father. She was not an angel, she was not a demon, but acting like that would make her look like a selfish demon who wants to owe everything.  
Alice's heart finally felt calm, the same calm she just felt when Joseph was close to her to heal her wounds. She had just done for a man what she never imagined to do after the most painful betrayal she had gone through because of her first love. She was convinced Ian was going to come back for just one reason; her love, the love she was giving him maybe, since the first moment they encountered for the first time after many years. All her fears had been put aside in the moment she felt –for a moment– her heart was almost facing his absence. A fairytale had begun in that moment. Regrettably, it was going to be hard not to see Ian as always walking through the hospital corridors, smiling for every time he ran into her like he had encountered the most beautiful treasure in his way. After all, she was his most precious treasure.If only she could know how happy that man had boarded the plane, if only he could explain to her all the emotions and fe
Rita the receptionist had broken into Alice’s peaceful morning, informing her about someone who wanted to see her without having an appointment or documents that could endorse that person being her patient.“What is his name or her name?” asked Alice. Her pale face revealed more than she would have been able to say.“It’s his name, it’s a man,” continued Rita, “and his name is-“At the mere instant, the receptionist was informing her about the person who had come without any documents, an intense dizziness was presented to Alice. Instantly, she was held by Rita, who was dramatically alarmed at the moment. That seemed to scare Alice. She had never felt like it consecutively.For the first time since her pregnancy, she was worried about herself. She feared her body was not okay as she always wanted to be, but on the other hand, she thought it could be anything. The
