David looked at the doctor and shook my hand. He was clearly nervous about starting treatment.- There's no need to be afraid, boy. We'll just do a few blood transfusions. - The balding doctor with a warm smile announced.- Is that how it will be?- Yes, ma'am. - He smiled at me. - David will start with blood transfusions and supplemented doses of iron. We'll see how he reacts to this and we'll know what step to take. If he responds well, you'll soon be able to go home and the treatment will become home treatment.David looked at me and smiled excitedly.- I'll be able to watch Supernatural! - He celebrated.- Yes, you can. - Nurse Elizabeth, a mature woman with a gentle smile, encouraged my brother by stroking his hair.- So let's get started! - David proposed, suddenly free of fear.- Of course. But first, give him his medicine, Elizabeth. - The doctor told the nurse. - And we'll be back soon to start the first transfusion.Elizabeth offered David some pills and a glass of water. He

- And the glass? - I shouted euphorically, lifting my shot of tequila.- The glass is still in my hand. - Arianna and Jenny answered in unison and we all started laughing.- I love that song. - Arianna said after taking another swallow.- So do I. - I agreed, leaning my head on her shoulder. I suddenly felt light. - I'm watching it all go round.Jenny laughed next to me, as if I was telling a very funny joke.- I think... I think we need to start dancing instead of just listening. - Jenny wiggled her shoulders like a Spanish dancer.- No... I'm not going to dance. - I held up my index finger in warning.- That's because you know you'd lose to me. None of you can dance like me. - Arianna stared at us defiantly.- What's it like? - Jenny tapped the table in annoyance. - I won a talent show in sixth grade.- So what? Ellen and I won one too and we sang really badly. - Arianna said and then laughed.- But the point is that I danced. Still to Shakira's song. - Jenny defended herself and su

It felt like something was squeezing my head and making my veins throb painfully. I let out an anguished groan and tried to open my eyes, but the brightness made the pain increase. I closed them once more and breathed slowly, trying to concentrate on something other than the throbbing discomfort.What had I done yesterday? A few shots of tequila with Jenny and Arianna.Laughter, loud music and then the dance floor. Then the images seemed like blurs in my mind, a kind of hallucinatory dream.I tried to open my eyes and this time I managed it, ignoring the pain. I spotted my Top Gun poster and sighed with relief. My room. Nothing so serious should have happened. I'd just abused alcohol and Arianna had brought me home.I rolled over in bed, realizing that I was lying on my stomach and that I was still wearing the dress I'd worn to the party. There was a sheet wrapped around my waist and my heels were on the floor next to me.Regretting having gotten carried away with the Tequila, I pulle

When we left my house, I realized to my relief that there weren't many people in the street yet. Damien indicated the driver's seat to Tom and he opened the door for me himself. I got in and he followed soon after.- Where to, Mr. Mason?- Give Tom the coordinates, Darling. - Damien smiled nonchalantly.- To the school two blocks down the road, Tom, please. - I asked.- As you wish, miss. - Tom replied. He could never call me by my name.The car pulled away and I raised my wrist to look at the clock. It was almost nine. That would give me time to get to school.- Do you remember our appointment today? - Damien said and I stared at him. He was also looking at his watch.- The gallery. - I remembered. - What time are we leaving?- The exhibition starts at seven and we'll be on Broadway at nine. - He gave me his attention. - You can go with me to my house and you can stay there if you like. When I arrive, we'll leave quickly.I opened my mouth to challenge him, but then I realized that f

I spent longer than I had planned with David. We entertained ourselves with the game and received a surprise visit from Tk. He was smiling as usual, but he had a tired expression on his face from the from all the nights at the bar. The three of us spent hours talking about all sorts of things. David was so happy that the whole episode of sadness in the morning became a vague memory in my mind.I also received messages from Jenny and a promise of a call from Arianna later in the afternoon. Takashi left shortly after four o'clock. He was still going to work. But first he confided in me that he was having problems in his relationship, leaving me dumbfounded when he said he was having doubts about marriage. He insisted that I take money, but I managed to convince him that I was managed to convince him that he was managing to make ends meet, as David was gradually improving. When he finally David decided to be generous and gave me the chance to polish my honor in a new game of chess.When

- About the dream he had about me. - He brushed the tip of his nose against my neck and then planted a kiss on the line of my jaw, making me gasp.- He hadn't forgotten the damn dream! What's worse, he was showing me that he wouldn't give up on hearing the confession come out of my own mouth.- I... I didn't dream anything. - I insisted and tried to keep my hands on the Jaguar's bodywork.- I've already told you that you're not good at lying, Darling. - Damien ran his hand down my waist and touched my exposed leg on the side of my dress. - I can find out for myself if you like.- Damien... We've got to go.- How did I touch her? - Damien kissed my lips quickly. - Like this? - He ran his hand down my leg and put a little pressure on my knee with his fingers.I couldn't help but moan, but it was muffled because his mouth was glued to mine and I couldn't hold back any longer. My hands went to his hair and I pressed my mouth against his. Damien took a firm hold of my waist and suddenly I

BONUS DAMIENAs soon as we got back to the covered area, which was already covered in golf necessities, I spotted Ellen sitting at the bar. She looked a little bored and I regretted leaving her alone, I knew how tiring these events could be. But maybe I could make things better.- Do you want to come with me or do you prefer the company of the other ladies? - I touched her waist and whispered in her ear.Ellen turned around instantly.- In that case, I'd prefer your company. - She glanced at the group of women chatting at a table on the other side.They smiled, but I could tell it wasn't a real greeting.-All right. - I nodded.But suddenly nothing was fine anymore. Because I looked up and saw Crystle standing behind Ellen with her arms crossed in front of her chest. I squeezed my eyes shut in search of patience.We need to talk. - She replied cheekily and put her hand on my shoulder.You shouldn't even be here. - I growled, trying not to attract too much attention, and pulled away fr

BONUS DAMIENShe told me and I finally understood that she was embarrassed by her little fit of anger. But she shouldn't be ashamed, she should be pleased. Proud. She just defended herself. And at that moment I realized that I admired her ability to be fearless and defend whatever she believed in.- Mason! - Ulysses shouted again.- Go about your business. - She spoke and then walked away towards the roof.I watched her go for a while. Then I sighed and started walking towards Ulysses."Admiring is dangerous, Damien. Let's stay focused."***The afternoon was tiring. Golf and random conversations about the economy and the stock market. Some trying to make an impression, looking for loyal partnerships and others just observing. This was definitely a game I could control. I preferred to side with those who were more observant. Knowing where you stand is fundamental in the business world, and I had learned that the hard way. But that afternoon I divided my concentration between the game
