Helen narrates.I looked at myself in the mirror in the middle of a grimace. I didn't understand how Dylan had wanted to marry me; she was such a simple girl, without any grace. My eyes were big like Princess Pocahontas's and color was hazel. My brown hair pierced my behind, but my body was so simple; I was thin with a little width in my hips, but my breasts were flat, and my buttocks were fully developed.I tried to be the best presented for the occasion, it was my husband, and I didn't want him to see me badly for that; so, I took a shower after breakfast, so that he would feel pleasant with my presence. However, it was all useless, because when I knocked on the office door, he looked at me with disgust."I can enter?" I asked nervously, while she knocked on the door a few times."Go ahead" he indicated serenely.When I entered the office, I looked at him. He was at his desk looking at some papers, and without looking at me, but with a serious expression on his face, he told me to s
Helen narrates.As soon as I left my stupid husband's office, I went into my room to cry. I was sad and upset. He didn't know what he was doing there. Although it was full of luxuries, I did not enjoy them, in that house I was one more employee, plus I missed my mother too much.When I saw Dylan, I wanted to complain about how my old lady was treated, and also how I had been treated in that house, but I preferred to keep quiet, I was very afraid of Dylan, and I didn't want him to retaliate against me if I became rebellious.I was lying sobbing when my dear sister-in-law entered my room without knocking."You, stand up. My brother wants you to go buy clothes” Marina was red with anger as if she was annoyed that her brother had asked her to buy clothes.I got up quietly. I used to not talk back to people when they were really upset, I had learned that from my mother. And it's that whenever dad came home drunk, she just limited herself to obeying and keeping silent.I cleaned up my outfi
Dylan narrates.He was nervous as if he were a child on his first time with a woman. Seeing her undress, me awkwardly and blushing had indicated to me that she had never been with any man. I wasn't going to harm her, just like that. Our first time had to be special and unforgettable, well, if there was a first time. He wished that Helen managed to fall in love before the contract dissolved spontaneously as he had described.With some difficulty I took a towel that was near the bathtub and dragging myself managed to sit on the toilet."Helen, I'm ready!" I yelled shaking with nerves.Immediately she opened the bathroom door; her cheeks were flushed. Without looking at me she brought the wheelchair closer and with some difficulty dragged me up and into it to leave the bathroom. After that she helped me dress. Her tender look drove me crazy, although she couldn't stop thinking about how ungrateful she had been, and from time to time I got the rage and anger."You can lie down Helen, I'm
Helen narrates.The rich breeze was blowing in through the window. I opened my eyes heavily. It had been hard for me to fall asleep because it wasn't easy to sleep with someone I didn't know.I took a shower and when I came out, Margarita was already coming to bed with breakfast."What are you doing, Margarita, bringing breakfast to the room?" I asked in amazement. All this time she had eaten breakfast as the servants."These are the lord's orders, ma'am" he told me with his eyes lowered."Don't call me ma'am, you know my name is Helen, it's not necessary" I whispered confidently."Yes, it is. I don't want my grumpy employer to get upset if he hears that I speak to him by name.I sat down to have breakfast in bed, while I talked with Margarita; She looked like she was an older lady, in her fifties or sixties."Your employer is a horrible monster" I expressed releasing the hatred I felt for him."It wasn't always like this, ma'am." I looked at her surprised."In that way?" I asked curi
Dylan narrates.Every second of my life I thought about her, to the point of thinking that they are obsessed with that young woman. I didn't understand, if my plan were to make her fall in love with my attitude, I was achieving it was to drive her away even more.I left the clinic and went to the office, I thought about that night inviting her to dinner and having some kind of contemplation with her, I hoped she would respond to my invitation and not be ashamed to go out with a man in a wheelchair."Good morning, Lucy" I greeted my secretary as soon as I entered my office."Good morning, sir, you're late, Miss Amanda has been waiting for you in her office for a few hours.“Amanda? And when did Amanda arrive? I asked amazed.Amanda was my wife's sister; she lived in Mexico and had not visited us since Alicia had passed away."He arrived a couple of hours ago, he said he wanted to surprise him, and he is waiting for him in his office.""Okay, thanks, Lucy" I walked with an arched brow,
Helen narrates.The plans to see Alejandro had been cut short when I saw Dylan's truck arrive at the mansion well before the time, but I almost had a heart attack when instead of Dylan getting out, a woman identical to the deceased that was drawn on the room of my dear husband.I kept watching how Marina kissed and hugged her as if it were really her.I walked to the living room, and I could see them talking. I was about to turn around when Marina called me haughtily."Helen please take Amanda's bags up to her room."I remained static clenching the fists of my hands with annoyance, there he was again treating me as a servant; but I nodded my head and took the bags. Seconds later I was paralyzed again when the woman who was with Marina asked for the man's wife."I'm dying to meet Dylan's wife; I imagine she must be a very beautiful woman for your brother to have married her."“You have already met her dear. Helen! Come girl, Amanda wants to meet you.""The maid?!" Her eyes widened in s
Helen narrates.We left the room and went to the dining room together. It was the first time we had breakfast together as spouses.Marina and Amanda were amazed as soon as they saw us arrive together, especially Amanda who immediately turned red with anger."Sit down, Mrs. Mayora, I'll serve you your breakfast" María, the servant, purposely emphasized my married name.I sat next to Dylan. Amanda wasted no time in coming on and kissing him in front of me, on her lips.“Good morning, dear, I thought you were already in the office. She “she” She kissed her cheeks while I watched her out of the corner of my eye."Today I decided to spend the day with my wife," he said, serene. I had to squeeze my legs because of the nerves."Oh, I see!" she replied in that shrill voice that was overwhelming."My brother never misses the company, is there any special reason?" asked Marina, who had taken a long time to speak.“We will visit my in-laws…” Dylan's response left me in awe. I did not know that h
Dylan narrates.I had a huge headache. I didn't want to imagine what Helen's life had been like with that wretch. I felt guilty for having been part of a deal with that awful man.I got into the truck and asked Camilo to take me to a pharmacy. My head was spinning, and he was about to vomit."Are you okay, sir? He's pale” Camilo looked at me with a worried face."I don't feel well, I feel like throwing up and I'm dizzy" I answered in a whisper.“Do you want us to stop so I throw up?”"No, I need a painkiller as soon as possible, hurry up the car."We got to the pharmacy and Camilo hurriedly got out to buy medicine, but I opened the door and started to vomit, I couldn't stand the nausea.I did not want Helen to suffer, my intention in marrying her was never to mistreat her. What Marina had done caused me enormous and intransigent anger; but she would hear me. She didn't kick her just because Helen hadn't asked me to, because she was tired of her rebelliousness and her rudeness.Camilo
