The next day, I woke up to a goodbye kiss from Cristian. He was ready to head to his medical practice. After saying goodbye, I took a tranquilizer. My goal was to sleep and escape from the tangled mess my life had become. I couldn’t make sense of my husband’s sudden change in attitude. Nor could I understand my own reaction. And it was even harder to process the night of passion we had just shared.

Before resting, I asked Ana not to wake me up. And she respected my request. I woke up after three in the afternoon with a ravenous appetite. I hadn’t had breakfast, nor eaten anything that day. In the dining room, I found a giant bouquet of red roses and a note from Cristian with a simple message: “Thank you, my wife.”

I also found several messages from Eduardo. He was worried because I hadn’t shown up for lunch. I explained that I had taken a tranquilizer and slept through lunchtime. I apologized for leaving him waiting. He asked if that was the real reason or if there was something else.

  • Taboo Dance    Chapter 12

    While Jane and I were having coffee at a café, Eduardo showed up. I was deeply upset by the situation. I had told him time and again that we needed to keep our distance.Sending me messages every single day and calling me constantly wasn’t enough for him— now he was showing up uninvited. He was being intrusive. He was not respecting my boundaries.I apologized to my new friend for having to leave her alone to speak with my brother-in-law. In my frustration, I forgot to introduce them. Jane noticed my anger and asked if I needed any help. I told her I didn’t and added that I was truly sorry for interrupting our conversation.Eduardo and I sat at a table tucked away from the rest so no one could overhear our conversation. He begged me to come back to him. He insisted that he loved me and that each day without me was driving him insane. I told him I was sorry I couldn’t return his love. I added that I would never be with him again. That this was our final conversation. That I was ending

    Several days have passed. My job makes me happy. The work environment is wonderful. I've managed to close several sales—quite an achievement considering I had never sold anything before. I've been able to use the computer programs without any issues, and Jane has praised me more than once for my strong performance at work.Cristian tries to ruin my happiness. Since I refused to quit my job, he’s become even more verbally abusive than usual. He mocks me and the work I do, saying it makes perfect sense that I ended up as a saleswoman because my brain cells aren’t enough for anything else. When I ignore him, he mutters that I embarrass him and that the only reason he hasn’t left me is because he still finds me physically attractive. And those are just a few examples of the insults he throws at me.I no longer have dinner with him. I eat in my room, and sometimes I go out with my coworkers to have dinner at a nearby restaurant after work. I try to avoid being anywhere near my husband. I c

    While I was studying the programs, I received a message from Eduardo. He said he missed me and wished we could have lunch together. I reminded him that we had agreed to take some time apart and asked him to respect that decision. He sent two more messages, insisting. I considered blocking him, but I didn’t. I was afraid of how he might react if he realized I was putting an end to our communication.When lunchtime came, Jane and I went to a vegan restaurant. I loved the food and the entire concept. I had once tried to go vegan, but my husband objected, saying it would make me even dumber than I already was due to a lack of protein. I knew that protein and other nutrients could be found in plant-based sources, but I didn’t want to create more conflict with my husband. Besides, I was tired of being called stupid.Jane has been vegan for over twenty years. She told me it was hard for her to give up meat because she actually enjoyed that kind of food, but she fought to embrace veganism out

    Despite my swollen eyes betraying that I had cried a lot, Cristian didn’t make the slightest effort to ask what was wrong. The only thing that mattered to him was that I had broken our unspoken rule of being home early. I told him I had met an American dancer and that, while talking about dance, we had lost track of time. He scolded me for speaking with strangers and continued his complaints.In a harsh tone, he called Ana and asked her to serve dinner. I told him I wasn’t in the mood to eat with someone who was so angry for no reason. When I turned around, he grabbed my arm and ordered me to sit at the dining table. It wasn’t easy, but I managed to break free. I went to the guest room so I wouldn’t have to sleep next to him.I broke down in tears again. Once I managed to calm myself, I messaged Jane. I told her I was accepting the job. We agreed to meet at ten in the morning to go over the details. I was determined to start working and leave Cristian’s house. I was tired of his tyran

    Eduardo began by apologizing. He told me that if he had known what kind of woman I truly was, he would have never let me work at his cabaret. That he regretted exposing me like that.I interrupted him and said I was a grown woman—and if anyone was to blame for dancing in that place, it was me. He insisted on taking the blame. Then he told me I shouldn’t be afraid. That nothing bad was going to happen to me. That the fact I had found out about his illegal business only made him want to be more honest with me. He promised he would protect me with his life.I tried to show a strength I didn’t really have and told him I could take care of myself.He said he couldn’t bear the thought of something bad happening to me—because he loved me. I was stunned. I had always thought I was just another mistress in Eduardo’s life. And it was the first time anyone had ever told me they loved me. I wanted to respond to that feeling, but the truth was, I only cared for him deeply. I didn’t know how to lov
