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
Raina's POVI had missed so much of my daughter's life, and here I was witnessing this beautiful moment - her discovery of love. And she had discovered it with someone truly worthwhile, someone who would make her happy, because he reciprocated her feelings and wouldn't break her little heart. She was happy! And what could matter more to a mother than seeing her child happy? Absolutely nothing!I planned to go to bed, but experience told me that Anderson was just as anxious as she was for that kiss and that she would find a way to convince him to kiss her soon. And I didn't want to miss it! I said goodnight to them, went to my room and came back, hiding in the dark hallway and watching like someone at a movie theater.He fiddled with his phone. I was certain he had put on music, but it was too quiet for me to tell which song. And then they started dancing, so sweet, talking quietly while they danced. That sweetheart really was my girl's Prince Charming!And slowly he began giving Giova
Anderson's POVIt was like I was dreaming and all my wishes were coming true at once! I couldn't even explain what that girl was doing to me, to my heart. For a moment, I was afraid to open my eyes and have everything disappear like smoke, but it was real, she was real, the kiss was real, and it was the best kiss of my life.When I opened my eyes and saw her there, in front of me, wrapped in my arms with her eyes closed and a beautiful smile on her face, I felt like life was finally worth living, as if nothing could go wrong from that moment on. And I held her tighter in my embrace, because I was incapable of letting her go. But what if she hadn't liked it? What if she gave up on me?"Little tiger?""Hmm?""Say something." I asked, but she was so quiet it didn't even seem like her. "Little tiger, was it bad?"She pulled away from my embrace and looked at me, her eyes sparkling and a smile that took my breath away."Anderson, kiss me again? Because it was so good that I need to try it a
Giovanna's POVI got quite angry with my uncles; they had interrupted the big moment of my kiss and it had cost me a lot to convince Anderson."Was it too much to ask to pass by quietly, uncle?" I asked angrily and he laughed."It was, I would have missed that angry little face of yours." He joked. It was impossible to stay mad at Uncle Rubens; he was always making jokes about everything.We kept talking until Hannah appeared, all cheerful. I even thought my father and she had already gone out. But she stopped by my mother's room and then came to mine."Everyone, Rafael wants you all in the living room, including you, little tiger," Hannah said, but from her smile it wasn't anything bad. What were my father and she up to?I was curious. When we got to the living room, we found my father and Anderson talking. Anderson approached and held my hands."Little tiger, I talked to your father and he gave permission for you to go out with me tomorrow. I'm taking you to meet my family," he spoke
