It took me a long time to figure out what love was. I think it’s because I’ve never seen the use of it.
But why seeing the use of the most absurdly horrifying acts has been performed in the name of love. He would indeed say the most beautiful too, and I think that’s the reason why he was able to show me what love really was, but I’m getting ahead of myself.
I am Jessika Harris, and my job is to organize special events for special people. Since I am an event producer and in charge of protocol, my work is impeccable. I am organized, and that part of my life I like to have. Still, I have never understood how people can lose their minds over some minor things.
If I have to tell you when it all started, it would be in a conversation the day before meeting him. You know those conversations that usually don’t matter except for that idea that someone said inadvertently, those conversations that change your perspective on something unexpecte
He looked at me with a charming smile that almost made me feel something, but I didn’t, and opening my door with real chivalry, he said, “What is love? That question is difficult; someone who sees life like you and is in love should tell you, it is your best chance to understand it!”That idea was fascinating, and I looked at it, thanked him, and went to my apartment, dissecting each of his words on the possibility that there was what I was looking for.The next day started like any other day, except that it began too late for me, it was nothing dramatic, but I didn’t have time to eat breakfast, which made me more grumpy than usual.I arrived at my office, and Ronda was waiting for me with a coffee that, by tasting my lips, brought me back to life. She was excited, and I really didn’t know why.I asked, “Why so happy, Ronda? We should be hiring a new chef.”She gave me a splendid smile, before respond
Richard said with a smile on his face, “Don’t worry, and I actually want to do it!”Looking at him, I added, “There is no point in hiring someone who cannot exceed Robert’s standard, so it is better to take a test boss.”My boss looked at me with fierce eyes, but together we walked in the direction of the kitchen area.Richard was going ahead as if he knew which path to take, it was strange, and he had all the confidence in the world in his way of walking, people saw us going towards the kitchen area, and a wave of wild rumors began to come out.He came in calmly and took off his jacket and tie, and he fastened it while he adjusted an apron and rolled up his sleeves.He seemed to exactly know what he was doing and smiling, and he turned around to look at me and say, “Any request? Or do you just want me to prepare a rich breakfast for you? “I responded confusedly to what he said, “Breakfa
Richard adapted excellently to work, his food was appreciated by everyone, and co-workers loved being with him. He treated everyone as his equal and seemed to develop a friendship with everyone that he was so dear caused me ongoing frustration.At the time, I thought, how is it that he had no defects? How is it that everyone felt that he was such a great guy?He was even delighted with me, and he tried to get closer to me and establish a friendship that I fought daily.One day when I arrived at my desk, I was exhausted from the continuous course of work we had.Organizing the events and then maintaining them was incredibly exhausting, and when I arrived, a cup of coffee was on my table.But it was not a regular coffee. It was a sparkling Macchiato, and next to it, a plate with a sandwich that looked really exquisite.I turned to look at my secretary, and she smiled and said, “Richie brought it!” He said you would arrive tired bec
We hugged again, and this time I congratulated her appropriately. The workday was typical, and when it was time to leave, I got ready to go. I was always the last to leave, but this time a song sounded inside the kitchen. With curiosity, I approached to see.I calmly opened the door, and a slow song played, Richard, sitting in a chair rocking on the two back legs of the chair as he hummed the tune. He had already done all the kitchen work, and everything was impeccable, but he was still there passing the time.I approached slowly and calmly. I said, “Nice song!”He looked at me, and with an agile movement, he dropped the chair and got up instantly to turn off the music and say, “I’m sorry, I didn’t want to disturb you!”I answered, “Do not bother! It’s actually a nice song!” As he heard those words from me, he smiled and raised the tune again.I looked at him curiously. There was really nothing
I smiled calmly at him, just as I took into account the details for the organization of his menu. He was an efficient person, and that reassured me, at that moment, tranquility was a strange luxury for me.Ronda asked anxiously, “Great, and we can eat from that menu?” She was in charge of the employees’ clothing.Richard answered calmly, “I’m sorry, Ronda, as this is a ceremony event. We who will not participate do not have the authorization to eat that food,” he then added, “But I will prepare something special for us, do not worry!”Hearing those words, Ronda smiled, and Sierra, the woman who was right next to Richard, put her hand on his shoulder and said, “You always think of everything, don’t you!?”Richard smiled at her touch, and it made me mad. Although, to be fair, everything Sierra did make me angry, and she was a really beautiful woman; in her younger years, she had been a very s
But before Ronda could answer, I got up, pretending a giant yawn, and said, “Sorry Richard, I didn’t mean to.”He saw me smiling and giving his seat to Ronda, and he said, “It was actually fun! Take it, Ronda, we’ll switch back when the plane arrives!”And with those words he left, Ronda looked at me with eyes full of malice and said, “So now we pretend to be asleep to be near him?”I widened my eyes and acted offended, but there was no way I was fooling Ronda. Sometimes I feel like she knows me much better than I know myself. The plane arrived without problems, and the official vehicles took us to the temple.We had to spend two nights in the temple organizing the event, but upon arrival, the guide of the place received us with terrible news.“Good afternoon, dear guests!” The temple representative was an older man, but his physical condition was desirable, he seemed to be full of muscles
He seemed surprised by my words and said, “Well, I want to be the best version of myself in everything, but I don’t want to be better than anyone! And I don’t think I can be better than you in many things.”I looked at him in surprise. I could not believe what he was saying, but at that moment, a short memory of his attitude came to me. In reality, he was not an arrogant man or anything like that. He was kind and calm and, most importantly, reliable.Without saying anything, he threw the bottle of water at me as he stood up and said, “Ok, please don’t run anymore. I won’t be able to follow you.”I, smiling, opened the pot of water and, looking into his eyes, I said, “I think you need a little more water.”And with those words, I thoroughly wet him. If you ask me, I have no idea why I decided to do that. At the time, it seemed like a good joke, but when I saw him wet, a fear invaded me, I thought
The monk got up instantly, and protesting said, “It is not a good idea to go down at night, and it is easy to get lost...”I looked at him apprehensively, and at that moment, I said, “Then it is more important that I do it!”I ran and changed into sports clothes, and with that intention, I prepared to go down, when I got to the path I saw Richard next to me prepared in the same way, several of Oliver’s companions were also there, and Ronda with her exhausted face was still awake prepared to go down.Seeing all of them, I was moved by his interest and said, “Boys, those who did not go up the path will not go down it, we have a general idea of what it looks like, so we will go, you go along the road, and Ronda, you will stay up here if we cannot communicate with cell phones use radios to keep us informed. Whoever finds it contacts Ronda, and she will let the rest know. Understood?”Everyone nodded immediately. The
