I hate you! - my son screamed non-stop - I want you to die just like mommy.- Son, what happened? - I wanted to understand what was happening, as much as I already knew.- You're not my father! - He said with scared little eyes - You were my superhero like in the movies, but heroes don't use things that are bad for their health. Captain America doesn't like drugs.Hearing that sentence made my head spin. What I feared most had happened, my children had found out what I made sure not to remember every day of my life.The worst thing was to try to hide it from myself or pretend it was a bad dream, that way I thought no one would find out, or rather my kids because I didn't want to hurt or disappoint them, it was like I failed as a parent. But what was the point? I had really failed.I closed my eyes and everything went by like a horror movie in which I myself was the villain. How can one be happy doing harm to oneself? At that stage I was, because all this evil anesthetized the pain I f
- No - I faced her - I don't give in easily, it's the consequences. You think it's easy? Then let's go. Do you want to know everything? - She nodded and I started talking - I couldn't complain about anything I had. My life was perfect, I had a girlfriend, money, a model family and a promising future. I don't need to tell you that the girlfriend was you! - I smiled.- So, I had everything! - I ran my hands through my hair nervously - But the feeling of power grew in me and I saw that I could have more, I could have several women, more money and be the owner of the world. Until I got involved with your best friend, however I didn't expect you to find out and the worst after you dumped me I found out she was pregnant. Conclusion? Even though I suffered because you left I was forced to marry her, my parents applied marriage as a punishment.- You didn't get married because you wanted to? - Olivia looked at me frightened.- Let me continue. - I raised my hand - I thought, since I'm getting
Everything was so good...in my mind I already had the image of the four of us as a happy family. But unfortunately a bucket of cold water had been thrown on my dreams.Hearing everything from Miguel's mouth hurt more than hearing it from Olga. Our past had come to the surface and at that moment I knew things that even years ago hurt me too much.Miguel, my Miguel was just a weak boy who thought the world revolved around him. And for thinking like that the choices he made damaged a relationship that was perhaps meant to be one of the most beautiful love stories.How could I live with a man who at the first defeat would turn to alcohol or maybe even something worse? It would be an unhealthy relationship full of bad vibes. No matter how strong I was and how much I could take, I couldn't bear to have Miguel like that by my side.My eyes were stinging from crying. And to think that while I was suffering, he was also going through the same thing, but we couldn't be together. The question hu
This time I was less confident and a little afraid to face the judge, because I was sure that Olga was going to talk all my dirt. And as much as my lawyer assured me that just her talking would not be enough, I was still not confident.And I had put it in my head that if my children decided to live with their grandmother I would not be against it because I was not a good father and I had already given enough proof of that.And maybe she was also just a bad person to me and what if she really wanted to have them around? What if it wasn't just for money? But who was I kidding? Of course it was for money.Oliviah had already made it clear that after the hearing she would leave. I was absolutely sure that I could move heaven and earth that she would not stay with me. I had lost the woman I loved once again. And for good. And I had also let the opportunity to say I loved her be lost. Once again the woman I loved the most was leaving and from the looks of it she wasn't coming back, I wouldn
Months before I found out I was in love with Miguel I didn't even want to hear his name, look him in the eye or be in the same place as him. However, on the days I was without him after I decided to leave, it was as if I had left a piece of myself behind.I had no idea how I was going to go on without him by my side. I missed his voice, his smell and everything else that made up Miguel Henrique.I insisted on trying to understand why he hadn't shared his dirty past with me, I had already committed to helping him have children and I would definitely help him overcome the fears and monsters of the past.Even if the past came to haunt us I would want Miguel because he was my world, but I couldn't do it alone, Miguel had reached a level where he was no longer fighting for anything and I wanted him to walk beside me, one being the support for the other and overcoming all the evil.- "I miss him so much", I smiled as Rebeca stroked my hair, "we were so good, I thought he was going to say he
My heart was pounding. It was the first time I had heard Miguel say that he loved me, and I thought I was dreaming.The man I loved so much loved me too.- You....- I squeezed my eyes shut - Stop...please....- I love you! Oliviah, I always have and I always will. - He was really telling the truth - I had to get it out or I was going to go crazy! It was already choking me.- Such is life, right? - I smiled trying to pretend that it hadn't affected me - You may love me, but that doesn't mean we're going to be together....eu...I just don't trust you anymore!- You know... I did what I had to do, okay? - He smiled and couldn't believe what I'd had - I can love you in every way possible, but I'm not going to beg for it - He pointed at us - I have my failures and you have this silly fear that it could go wrong again. I would be willing to try a million times, but I respect your decision. Goodbye Oliviah, I will leave you alone.Everything had changed and that time I had ruined everything,
- No! - I held her in my arms - Oliviah, my love! Please come back. Wake up!In a matter of seconds everything happened Olíviah running, the car accelerating and then her in my arms unconscious.I was desperate and didn't know what to do there in the middle of the street with the love of my life unconscious in my arms. What would I be without the best part of me? I couldn't lose her there. If something bad happened, I would blame myself for the rest of my life.- Son, for God's sake stay calm. - my mother said - I've already called the ambulance. Everything will be fine.- Stay with me Oliviah, love? - I was trying to wake her up - My love, I can't lose you..... what will become of me without you?The minutes passed and my heart squeezed even more. It seemed like an eternity to such an ambulance, I wanted to save her and from then on to make Olivia happy by my side, without more sadness, without all the things that hindered us both.I stroked her face there on my lap. So beautiful. So
- Miguel calm down! - She said - It's....que..well, Oly had to go through a complicated procedure, it was in the wee hours of the morning..but she's awake now.- That's good! - I smiled with relief - And how is she? I'm going to have coffee and ... I need to see her, is she awake yet? I wonder if...- Miguel? - She cut me off - Well, she woke up, but she said she doesn't want to see you.I swallowed and disconnected the call. Deep down, maybe Olivia was right not to want to see me. She was the best part of me, but I was no good for her. So in a way it would be much better for her to start staying away from me.[---]My way out of suffering without news and accepting Olivah's rejection was to occupy my mind trying to get Olga arrested.And I succeeded. Through the CCTV footage we proved that she tried to kill Oliviah. And in jail she also confessed that she had killed Giselle.I imagined how bad she was and how much I risked leaving my children alone with her, if she had killed her own
