When leaving the main path that leads from the house to the road with which it connects, following a somewhat narrow and somewhat sandy path isolated from right to left by bushes, some cacti and huge coconut trees on the side of the road was hidden almost at the end of that the famous fishing village that curiously for being so small was totally full of life. Not very well the locals noticed how the car was approaching they gathered near where we stopped with great emotion since apparently Mr. Manuel was known in that place. Before leaving the car, he told us "you can come out and say hello while I'll go talk to an old friend for a moment to see if he can accommodate us for tonight. " Manuel I do not expect an answer he just looked at us and having noticed our attentive eyes got out of the car and drove away. " Christian and I in the same way to see him distancing we left his interior while not very well we did the children surrounded us full of emotion laughing and shouting becaus
Three days have passed since my arrival in Flor del Este, three days have passed since I set foot in these lands after being almost a year without returning to this place that I treasure so much, which since Alexander's arrival has become quite chaotic except today since that one is not hanging around.Since yesterday when grandpa and Christian and he left this place we have not known anything about their whereabouts, but I imagine that probably the three of them are relatively well since if something had happened to them someone from the fishing village would have appeared with news a long time ago, since in all the round one and the other are relatively the closest to civilization there is because the nearest city is almost an hour from where we are located.Which is why my day has passed with complete tranquility in the company of Ivanty whom I have been taking care of very hard more with the intention of keeping my mind busy so as not to think too much.Both breakfast and lunch we
There was nothing in the world at that time that mattered more to me than finding him. Ivanty was too precious for me to lose him in such an absurd way and this was not going to be the day, much less the hour when that happens.Carefully I was making my way through those waters watching my every step, I knew that if something happened I could get out of there easily since I knew how to swim, but that doesn't mean that entering unknown waters is not a danger, it is and this specific river was one that I was openly and consciously risking.The good thing about everything, in any case, was that the water level covered me merely at the level of the knees so with my legs I could easily fight against such an element.I was already a few meters away when suddenly I heard a voice shouting behind me "Milena, get out of there, what are you trying to do? You're crazy. ""It's not obvious, I'll go for Ivanty. ""How? No, get out of there now. ""No. ""Milena, please. "For a moment I stopped and
The storm was getting worse and worse every drop that fell could be compared to a projectile that directly hit the skin causing some pain from time to time.The truth refused to believe that I could get to have such bad luck, it was not possible because I knew that I did not deserve what was happening so over and over again I questioned myself about how I had ended up there involved in so many problems as a result between my teeth I grumbled which words of displeasure that were completely directed against Alexander.In the distance we began to make out the channel who was tinged by a slight brown color did not want to make assumptions, although it was inevitable since the panorama did not paint anything good the truth, already with such a view even in the distance I thought that we could extract nothing from such a situation, so without a word we approached hopeful being deluded at last.The lake was completely disturbed, the water level had increased enormously quadrupling its size s
Alexander after seeing how I was fading I didn't know what to do or how to act, the fear he felt could be perceived coming out through his pores, even if he didn't show it openly, so before I could realize it he was already kneeling next to me.I say that maybe maybe he saw something, something that has at least bent his heart a little because once by my side he brought his hands up to my face placing them one on each side of my cheeks and made me see him in the eyes."Hold on a little longer please Milena, just a little longer, you can't give up. “After listening to him I opened my eyes and ended up fixing them completely in his, in those honey-colored ones in which I could see that they still emanated that need for love that I once saw while we were children, without a doubt that little one in him was still sleeping, alone and helpless.No matter what was happening or what led us to such a dilemma that one was right I couldn't give up, so I obeyed him I couldn't just throw in the t
Finally, peace came between the two, tranquility enveloped us while each one was preparing to remain sitting in front of the bonfire, half shrunken by the impact of the cold while it wreaked havoc on our bodies.Somewhat far from each other we remained while the sound of the rain linked to the lightning and thunder that constantly hit the celestial vault kept us alert, it was an extremely horrible storm as neither of us had perhaps ever lived.The silence that had arisen between the two began to be especially overwhelming and even somewhat uncomfortable, which I didn't like at all since in the middle of the silence the strangest and most absurd ideas can arise, so I began to question Alexander in a particular way to change the heavy atmosphere that had been experienced so far."Now tell me, how did you manage to light the fire. ”“I won't tell you. ”“Come on don't be mean. ”Alexander turned his head to the side taking his eyes off me while I remained dumbfounded waiting for his answ
Maybe because of the fear or maybe because of the discomfort caused by sleeping on that floor, I ended up waking up earlier than I thought, finding myself with the image that Ivanty was particularly throwing a tantrum, which caused me to end up contemplating Alexander in the same way. When I saw him sleeping there, I dedicated myself to observing him and why not, the truth was that I had the complete intention of enjoying that image in silence and therefore taking everything I could remember from that moment. In silence I contemplated his absolute passivity and the unparalleled tranquility that he reflected when resting, his figure worthy of which sublime Greek god was undoubtedly magical before my gaze, so it had become easy for me to understand just at that moment why so many women have to persecute him. I'm not going to lie, the temptation to have him close could even more than the voice of reason itself that lodges in me with undoubted strength, so with a subtle movement of apo
Alexander was restless, apparently he was not very pleased with the idea of having to leave once he saw those letters inscribed on the wall. "Milena I know I'm not to your total liking, but...... " he said while pretending to emanate a warm velvet voice as he prepared to look at me “I ask you a favor, before we leave I would like you and I to return to this place at some point, I would really like to repeat this again with you.“And why me? In any case, I am not relevant in this matter. “ That one took a somewhat demanding attitude and gave me to understand that I really had no vote regarding making a decision regarding that issue even though I was completely involved, so after approaching me I made it very clear."You're coming with me, period, because I say so, so I hope that when I come to get you at that moment, you'll be ready to come back. “ His arrogance and obvious attempt to want to control me made me feel angry and extremely upset. “You don't give me orders, so you're
