Perfect Lie Noble hearts
Maria and I managed to arrive at the hotel on time, thank God, because both of them kept asking me who the person I'll see after work is and what triggers the change in my mood and demeanor. On the way, the two of them turned into "Sherlock Holmes," a pair of investigators, wanting to know about my life, my other side of the coin, the one I don't want to touch because it hurts me. They didn't let my mind process or discuss the Adal issue, "How does he know I'm in Spain?" Also, what's wrong with him knowing? It's not like he regrets it and comes to ask for forgiveness for his confusion and abandonment. I don't believe it. To calm them down a bit, I told them I didn't want to touch the subject and that after talking to the person who called me on the phone, I would meet with them and bring them up to date on everything. Of course, I've dreamed like the psychopath who keeps secrets, now both of them will have a lot of tools to talk sensibly. Even though they weren't very calm about w
Perfect Lie He will take the baby away from me!
Although it was difficult, I asked her to take a breather and let me speak. She didn't nod or say anything, but she remained silent, giving me the opportunity to speak. I told her that I didn't want to take advantage of her kindness and that when she turned around to leave me alone, I went to look for a job. It wasn't that complicated, nor was it easy, but it was thanks to a couple of angels who helped me, and no one knows that I'm pregnant, but that doesn't mean I lose hope that they will give me the opportunity to continue, as I am efficient with my work. Moving on to the topic of Adal, I tell her that I'm not afraid of him finding me, that he has nothing to look for, as he made it clear what my baby and I mean in his life. Lucero takes a few steps, her gaze relaxes, and after taking a deep breath, she tells me that Adal doesn't want to sign the divorce papers and that she knows I'm here because his bank has informed him of the money I withdrew from the card he told me to cut. I
Perfect Lie To value a friendship
Oh, I didn't leave the hotel alone. Lucero made sure I got in a taxi and that this was going to be the last time I did the crazy thing of leaving her side. She didn't come with me because I told her I needed to say goodbye to the two women who opened their home and heart to me. I owe them the truth and to face them, I need to tell them that I have to leave, that I planned to stay here for a while, but after talking to Lucero's parents, there was no doubt in my mind that my path is to leave, prepare myself, and be someone for my baby. I don't want him to lack anything. I hope they understand that I have to seek improvement and stability, as if I stay, I run the risk of being fired and Adal showing up with a letter I wasn't expecting. Taking the baby away to hurt me, it all sounds so crazy, but as it could be true, it could also be a lie. What I can't do is sit still; I have to get off the unexpected path. "Thank you very much," I get out of the car, with no intention of paying. The h
Perfect Lie Breakfast with friends
+ Uuufff… I confessed and feel a huge relief in my heart. I joined her for the sleepover, and things ended up taking a different turn. I started with the reason I came to Spain, as I couldn't tell them from the moment I was born. She needs to process things a bit. They were surprised to hear from my own mouth that my husband left me for getting pregnant and that my friend Lucero is the one who has been helping me. I think as they processed all the information, they reacted and asked if I have a baby inside of me. They pointed to my flat belly, and I nodded at the same time as feeling a knot in my throat. I apologized for deceiving them, for hiding my pregnancy, and I excused myself for the need to get a job, for everything that was overwhelming me and getting out of my hands. It was clear that if they had found out about my pregnancy, I would never have gotten the job. We spent a couple of hours talking about how lucky I am to have them, that God has made sure that both of them had
Perfect Lie The farewell
"It's goodbye, I don't know when you'll leave," Dolores replied as she served herself coffee. "I waited for you to leave the room to apologize. Yesterday, I behaved like an immature and crazy person. I woke up without any explanation. But now that we're having breakfast together, I want to thank you for your intentions and those of Maria." "Dolores, remember what we were talking about. It's not that I'm interested in the money, but Gisela wants to do a good deed. She is aware of the persistent calls you receive from the bank and what they will take from you if you don't cancel as soon as possible. Please don't say that you will pay with the little you earn from that store." Those words hurt, especially Dolores' ego. She is desperate and doesn't want help. "Maria, can you tell me what they want to take from her? She doesn't want to be helped, and I understand that I am a complete stranger. That's why I came up with the great idea of giving you the money, and you can be the person who
Perfect Lie Painful reunion
"Why do you pour salt on the wound?" I asked with great intrigue, leaning forward under my leg to rest my arms on the desk. "It's impossible to stumble over the same stone again, but thank you for being the good Samaritan I've always hoped for." The tone of my sarcasm is through the roof. He's treating me like the man who hasn't broken a plate, while I attack every word that comes out of his mouth. "Why do you want a divorce?" Hey, who is this man! No, I can't contain myself any longer. He's mocking me and I won't allow it. Does he suffer from some illness? "You're an idiot, stop playing and tell me what you want," I spit out everything I feel, slapping the desk. "Last time, tell me what you want." "I'm still in trouble, I wanted to see you to..." "To see if you made a mistake or not. Too bad to disappoint you, but you can go back where you came from. No need to say another word, man of few words, good listener." I stand up from the chair. I have nothing to do here. I'm hurtin
Perfect Lie The new house
+ The hours I've spent at the clinic have made exhaustion take over my life, but little by little, I've regained my voice. Gisela's parents have taken the liberty of paying for the clinic and taking me to a hotel I don't want to enter, but I can't be rude and reject all the good they have done. It's hard to process the idea that I have a baby inside me, one that feels what I feel, a baby that needs me to be strong and not fall apart when that damn jerk shows up in front of me. I don't want to see him, I don't want to allow him to humiliate me, I can't let him trample on me. Adal hurt me, and for many, it's a drama that I should forget, but those who think that have surely not been in my shoes. Heavens, that scene keeps playing in my head over and over again, sometimes I wish there was some remedy to forget it. Lucero is right in saying that this baby will always remind me of what his father did to me, but... I am not heartless enough to give it up for adoption or have an abortion
Perfect Lie Fears of leaving me with your parents
+ It's already dawn and from the brightness I can deduce that it's five in the morning and... I haven't slept at all! I've just been admiring the woman next to me, yes, the one who's using my arm as her soft and comfortable pillow. She's a feisty one, but since she'll be leaving in a couple of hours, I have no choice but to endure the discomfort for a little while longer. I spent two hours pleading with her to calm down, assuring her that she wasn't going to die just because she was traveling and that it would be better for us to set aside our sadness and enjoy the night. She wasn't very convinced, but eventually agreed because she says I'm the type of person who doesn't give up until I get what I want, and that's true because I want her to leave with the peace her heart needs. It's clear to me that she has to give something to get what she wants. My temporary job is to encourage her, which I do gladly, although I wish she would stay, it's better that she goes. I won't deny that t
