All Chapters of Nora and Erik; When we were nothing: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

The visit Nora The nurse hesitated but left the room without saying anything. The Dr returned his eyes to me and saw my eyes. “You have been here, since you arrived, almost seven days. I read your report and the injuries do not coincide with a fall, as was established in the beginning. This is rather a case of domestic abuse, I can tell. ” My face said it all because he stopped and patted my hand. Then he continued. “I know my colleagues filled out the report, thanks to your husband’s insistence. But we know that is not so. I want to ask you something.” Staring into my eyes, he continued. “Do you want me to report this incident as domestic violence? You can trust me, I won’t do anything you don’t want.” Oh! My eyes started to fill with tears. It was so long ago that I had received someone’s support. And with a choppy voice, I replied, “Thank you, but I don’t want to put your life at risk. And even if you fill out the report and take it to the police, no one w

Finishing my sentence Nora After I refused to kiss him, he rested his forehead against my forehead and squeezed the back of my neck. After a few seconds, he sat up and said no more. Within five minutes, we had arrived. As soon as Thomas parked the car in the driveway, he got out to open the door for us. After Erik got out and grabbed my hand, I had no choice but to follow him and let him help me. The door of the house opened, and Rosa came out to greet us. When she saw me, she grabbed my hand and said, “Oh! I’m glad you’re feeling better now, Nora. Erik was so worried about you.” Her gaze hardened and she continued. “I want to give you some advice - don’t let this happen again. You have to change your attitude. A marriage cannot go on like this. And it is your responsibility to bring peace and happiness into this house.” “Now it’s not the time for that, Mother.” Rosa smiled at her son and changed her expression completely. “Erik, you are right, it isn’t my jo

The bedroom talk Nora I wanted to call Thomas, to let him know that I had already come out. But he was outside the place waiting for me. He told me to follow him. We walked to the car and headed in the direction of Erik’s house. Upon arrival, he carried all my purchases up to my room and I followed him. He put the things down on the floor and left, not without saying goodnight to me before leaving. I didn’t bother with the things on the floor, and I went to my wardrobe and took out my pyjamas. But first, I had to have a bath, since I had days without one. Then I filled the bathtub with different fragrances. After I waited for it to be full, I went in. I had a great time there until the water got cold, and I was forced to leave. With one towel, I wrapped my head, and with the other, I dried my body. But I realized that I had forgotten my pyjamas on the bed, so I had to go out like this. When I went to bed to find my clothes, I dried myself perfectly, and when

The party Nora I took a step forward and leaned against the door frame. They hadn’t noticed my presence yet, so I cleared my throat to get their attention. They both turned to see me, surprised to find them together. Erik stepped back, putting distance between himself and Claudia. What a stupid and unnecessary action. “No please, don’t bother. I was passing, and by accident, I heard what you were talking about.” I walked over to the coffee pot and poured myself a cup of coffee. Then, I turned to see them and offered them a friendly smile. Not only that, but I could see their looks of mistrust. I turned to Erik and said, “I have no problem with Claudia coming with us. In fact, I think it would be an excellent idea. She might as well keep me company. You know how boring those parties are.” I shrugged my shoulders, not giving importance to the matter, and turned around and left that place. My skin was already starting to itch from just being in front of them. I

HildaNoraThe reception staff was the only one outside, they were still welcoming guests. I walked in as if nothing had happened. No one announced me, nor was I bombarded with questions or handshakes, fortunately. I slipped through the sea of ​​people until I reached the main hall. They were all in suits and the women were displaying their best dresses. There were some that had jewels hanging from those same jewels. Much extravagance for my taste. At that moment, I remembered The Collins. I hope I don’t find them here, because there are times when that happens. And to be honest, they messed up my emotional control. Putting that thought out of my head, I saw a waiter approach with a tray full of drinks. I did not miss the opportunity to have one. The champagne I chose smelled great. So I took a sip and was delighted by the taste of it.“I can assure you that it is one of the best in the world.” I took the glass from my mouth and turned to see w
