- You did a great job! - I faced my family in the garden. My children, showing that they would follow in their father's footsteps.Years passed, Miguel Henrique and I were celebrating our wedding anniversary that day. Despite the years, it was a happy and healthy union. Of course, at certain times there were fights and disagreements, but nothing that could escape our essence as a couple.- Daddy! - Heitor said nervously, trying to convince his father that he deserved to be called up. - Open the newspapers or any sports program and they all say that I'm essential to be in the World Cup... only you can't see that?- My son, it doesn't just depend on me... I'm the coach, but there's a committee behind me. - My husband smoothed his forehead nervously. And because you're my son, you have to be a hundred times better. And don't make any mistakes, or have any reason to question your ability.After retiring as a legendary goalkeeper for Flamengo, years later Miguel was invited to coach the Br
- Olivia, what makes you think this will work with Heitor? - Miguel looked at me in wonder and fright at the same time.- It worked with us..." I smiled. It was an attempt, albeit a risky one, to make that boy and my husband realize their dream.I couldn't find another way or another plan to restore Heitor's good image. And I felt obliged to, for inexplicable reasons. I just had to get around the media and everything else would work out.- But that's the thing, I can't even get the person himself to be a fake girlfriend...- Heitor snorted and his hands went up in redemption - There's no point, I'd better throw it all away.- I have the ideal person! - Lavinia smiled from across the room. - I have a friend who needs to get rid of an abusive stepfather, she's having big problems with it and by you faking a relationship she has a reason to leave home.- But I don't even know this friend of yours. What if she can't be trusted? Everything could go down the drain. Even my career. -Heitor sc
- Pérola? - I smiled after looking at the girl. It was her, it was only a matter of time before she stole Heitor's heart. - Oliviah, nice to meet you! You're beautiful, I'm sorry to be indiscreet...- Hello, Olivia!" she shook my hand. Her hand was cold and nervous. - I'm sorry but... I'm tense, I don't know if all this is a good idea... and I... I'm sorry but your son is a pain in the ass! And I think...- Look, it's only a matter of time...and Lavinia says you need help. All this will be a way of helping both you and Heitor.As soon as we entered the office, I felt Pérola's gaze on Heitor, bringing out a mutual hatred. I saw the girl squint her eyes and raise an eyebrow. At the same time, he gave her a crooked, inviting smile, the same one that Miguel used to give me, which used to disconcert me, but at the time I swore it was hatred. A tense and frightening atmosphere caused everyone to stand on opposite sides of the office.- I realize you're not friends, but you need to pretend a
I watched this tall, athletic, green-eyed, light brown-haired boy and thanked St. Anthony for being so generous to me. I guess he was tired of seeing me at mass on Sundays and every year on June 13. And he had sent me that eye drops that were Miguel Henrique. The husky voice was like music to my ears. I was madly, hopelessly, unconditionally in love.Most girls couldn't accept that because I wasn't "beautiful and blonde" like them, I was the girlfriend of a promising goalkeeper, they all thought I was inferior to him. Miguel Henrique was already coveted by the girls of the school for being from a traditional and rich family from Rio de Janeiro? A scholarship student in an expensive school in the south zone, thanks to my mother's friends. Of course, the girls at school would not accept this relationship. But what could I do? He had fallen in love with me and I with him.- They won't stay together for long? she is totally different from him?- How could he be right with her? - Another g
I had spent the previous night having sex with a stranger, a woman I didn't even know the name of. I met her by chance after going out to dinner with some friends, we exchanged glances and she ended up in my bed...as she always did.There is nothing better than sex to relieve the stresses of life. Even more if you don't have to call the woman you slept with the next day.- Vaaaaaai...this Mariana this...go baby...come to me baby - The woman stopped wiggling when I was almost there...- Damn, my name is Marina and not Mariana! - Damn, I had the woman's name wrong about two hundred times.- I'm sorry, baby, but keep going, it's tasty - I did everything I could to keep her going - Go Marina...Yes, I had an addiction, I confess. Sex was always my perdition. If I was sad, sex, if I was happy, sex. Any occasion for me was sex. I felt fulfilled inside women and liked to make them happy.I woke up with a huge hangover, as I was on vacation I didn't mind drinking and living it up. December, f
- But this is absurd! - The woman screamed in my face - Do you know how much I pay for this school? I pay too much dear! You think you can fail my son? What you earn as a teacher, my husband as a businessman earns in a day.- Ma'am? Your son can't keep up with the class - I tried not to get the spirit of the bully girl. - And I'm happy for your husband, it just proves how undervalued teachers are in this country.That mother had been yelling at me for a long time and I couldn't stand it any longer having to explain to her that her son would have to fail because he was in no condition to keep up with his classmates, the boy knew absolutely nothing.- Dear? How much do you want my son to pass? - How is that? This lady was crazy - Tell her a thousand, two thousand? I'll pay!No, but what is it? Ah now the spirit comes...- Look lady, with all due respect, take your money and shove it up your ass," I shouted in revolt.That's all I needed! Five years as a teacher and I had never seen or h
After a turbulent night and having the displeasure of meeting Miguel Henrique again, I finally managed to get home, well and without any further incident. As soon as I got inside I tried to tell my family what had happened at school. At first everyone looked at me scared and a little afraid. My mother never tired of repeating that I was crazy and senseless.- How can you do such a thing? - When I told you to be a teacher, I asked for your inspiration to be me. And I would never do such a thing.- Of course not, woman! - Mom looked at my father with a disapproving look - You would do worse than Olivia, I'd have to take you to jail.But I made it clear to my mother and to everyone else that I was innocent and how liberating it had been to be rid of my abusive former principal.- Mom, stay calm, okay? - I tried to reassure her. I have good recommendations from other schools.- I hope so Olivia, and I hope God will talk some sense into you - I smiled, Martha was always dramatic. A little
I was trying at all costs to get closer to my children, I was trying to give them presents, take them on outings and do their bidding but it was getting harder and harder to have a parental relationship with them.Heitor was much more complicated than Lavinia. Maybe he had picked up my difficult temper and also thanks to Olga's witch the boy didn't respect me anymore. Lavinia was sweeter and less complicated to deal with, she reminded me a lot of her mother.- Hello children, I brought something for you - I showed the transparent wrapping - For Hector a remote control cart and a Barbie for you Lavinia! Did you like it?- Dad? - Heitor looked at me with contempt - I'm not a little kid anymore, ok? Remote control cart? Yikes!- At your age I loved to get one of these! - I frowned - And you daughter?- Look, I'd rather get an iPhone - I looked startled at my daughter! What do you mean? - But that's ok dad, I'm glad you thought of us.I tried to talk, asking about school, friends and othe
