Chapter 139

Author: Maria Anita
The weekend was chaos. I was trying to put my thoughts in order. We gathered the girls on Sunday, and I told them what was happening. Soon, a competition started to see who would be the godmother, all agreeing that Mel was already Peter's godmother, so she was out of the running. I asked Virginia not to tell Levy; I would do that myself. And they all swore not to tell anyone, respecting my decision to prevent Alexander from finding out.

On Monday, I was a wreck. Tired and distracted. I felt an almost uncontrollable sleepiness. I wasn't feeling well at all.

"Cat, wake up. Come on, lie down on the couch in my office for a bit," Patrick called to me in a low voice.

"What happened?" I lifted my head from the desk and looked at him, somewhat confused.

"You were sleeping. Come, lie down on the couch in my office. I think I should give you a few days off."

"I fell asleep? I think I'm having a really bad stress crisis," I commented, somewhat irritated, knowing exactly what the problem was.

    Anderson's POVWhen I stopped in front of my house, I noticed that Giovanna was nervous. She was rubbing her hands and was very quiet. I hadn't expected her to be nervous, but she was."Hey, little tiger, what's wrong?" I held her hand before getting out of the car."I'm nervous! I really want your mom and your siblings to like me." Her sincerity was something I really appreciated."They're going to love you!" I was sure she would win my mother over easily. She gave me a beautiful smile, her eyes sparkling. "Shall we go? Or if you're not ready, we don't have to go in. We can leave.""No! I want to go in. Let's go!" She was anxious, but still brave.I got out of the car and walked around, opened the door for her, and then grabbed the basket and flowers from the back seat. It had been very thoughtful of her to worry about bringing a gift. That said a lot about her. I handed her the orchid arrangement and unlocked the gate with my keys. When I entered, I let out a whistle - that was how I

    Rafael's POVI had been enjoying watching Giovana's dedication. She had gone to the kitchen with Hannah and they baked so many cookies that she prepared a beautiful basket for Anderson's mother and still had enough left over to feed an army."Did they really turn out good, Dad?" Giovana asked for the tenth time."Delicious, daughter, but I can't eat another cookie.""I won't give you any more anyway! You need to stay in shape, crazy cat." Hannah came to my rescue."Thanks for buying the basket and the wrapping paper and the bow, Dad, and the flowers, of course. It turned out beautiful, didn't it?" Giovana looked proudly at the basket."Beautiful, Gia. I'm sure his family will love it," I encouraged her.It was already mid-afternoon when Rubina, Rubens, Anderson, Little Renata, and Breno burst through the door. Of course, Giovana jumped up from the chair where she was sitting and went to hug her boyfriend. Apparently learning about world history was less important than hugs."Wow, you g

    Rubens' POVI was glad Hannah agreed to move out of that building. I didn't like the idea of her living there alone, and after I discovered that camera, I became even more worried. But fortunately, we would help her move, and she would be safer in Rafael's building. I just wished it would be over quickly because I didn't like the idea of my Blondie being in that place either."Blondie, you're going to be quick with this move, aren't you?" I asked again before we entered the building, and she laughed."Very quick, sweetie. You promised me a little something, and I haven't forgotten."We entered the building, and the doorman immediately told me the neighbor had left early that morning, which made me feel a bit less tense. While we were there, Renata and Breno arrived. We went up to Hannah's floor, and while Rubina started handling the move inside the apartment, I went to remove the neighbor's new camera; that guy had installed another one, and I had seen it through the camera I had set u

    Hannah's POVThe moment Raina left the apartment with Boris, I was certain they wouldn't help with my move. So I would have to convince my psycho cat to let me go help Rubina. It wasn't fair to leave everything to her."Psycho cat, I'm going with Rub and Big Brute to organize my move, because those two, we lost them today."Rafael chuckled."Yeah, I agree we lost them, but you're not setting foot in that building, my crazy," Rafael answered me with a smile."Psycho cat, I can't leave Rub alone!" I tried, but he wasn't going to let me leave."Oh, Nana, don't worry, I'm not going alone. My cutie and the charmer are going to help me. And cutie said that police officer is going with her boyfriend too," Rubina commented."I can go too, Hannah, instead of my mom!" Giovanna offered, a bit too eager, but if she went I doubted she would help and would probably steal one of the helpers."You're grounded, Giovanna!" Rafael reminded her."Oh, Dad!" Giovanna complained."Little tiger, you're stayin

    Raina's POVI didn't wait for the elevator, nor did I wait for Boris. I simply marched up the stairs to the upper floor. With each step I climbed, my mind raced over what I was about to do."Rai, don't be mad at me!" Boris was following close behind and seemed worried.I simply climbed the stairs, my decision already made. I opened the apartment door, it was dark because the curtains were closed. I turned on the lights and went in. As soon as he entered, I locked the door."Rai..." He seemed regretful, but it was too late."Shut up, Boris!" I grabbed him by his shirt collar. "Since you're keeping count, I'm going to give you more than kisses to tally up."I kissed him right there, in the middle of my new living room. I grabbed him by his shirt collar and kissed him! And it was a hungry kiss, as if I were going to devour him, a kiss that declared I wanted much more than just a kiss. For a split second he seemed surprised, confused even, but soon he responded in kind, wrapping his arms

    Raina's POVHannah and Rubina were staring at me like two dogs waiting for food, and it was actually funny. Before, I only had Rubina wanting to know everything and giving me a hard time, but I had Hannah, who was as sharp as Giovanna and as curious as Rubina."Your turn, Rai. Was your kiss worthy of an A-plus?" Hannah asked, and Rafael choked on the coffee he was drinking."Wait! Two kissers?" he asked, and the girls started laughing, but before I could answer, Giovanna appeared with Rubens."Gooood morning, familyyy!" Giovanna greeted with her arms up, and Rafael put on his stern face again. He was loving giving the boys a hard time."Giovanna, what happened on that couch yesterday?" he asked seriously, and she laughed, walked over to him and kissed his cheek."Dad, don't tell me you're sniffing the couch cushions?" she joked, and he stared at her, narrowing his eyes. Then she bent down to look him in the eye. "Dad, I felt that thing with my heart in my mouth." She confided to her fa
