The heart is the central organ of blood circulation, which in the lower body is simply a dilation of a vessel, and in the upper body is muscular, contractile, and has two, three, or four chambers that adequately support its function. However, on the other hand, there is something that will never help and is quite clear: the intermittent pain felt in response to words that tear apart. That's how the heart felt, whose beats were screaming to stop.His brown gaze remained fixed on that spot where Katherina was before she left and uttered those words.Simple. I don't love you anymore. It repeated over and over like a scratched record in his mind. He couldn't hear the slightest noise, only the sound of his heart, breaking."Tom..." someone called, passing in front of his face, their hand extended. "Hey." They patted his cheeks until they managed to make him look at them. "Brother..." Their blue-eyed gaze turned sad as they looked into his eyes. "Enough, I beg you," they said, wiping away h
It is unlikely that an act would have the same effect on everyone.I'm referring to Tom, of course, anyway...How would you react if, in order to accept an apology, someone unexpectedly kissed you?Exactly. That's what happened, that's what everyone saw.Both hands on her cheeks, bringing his face closer to hers, and his lips touched hers. Surprise struck, both the boy himself and everyone in the hallway.And that resulted in..."You're forgiven," she said, smiling at him, and the boy, with a crimson face, smiled back, and it seemed even wider. "Isn't it lovely?" She looked up and asked her friends, who looked on, unable to believe what they saw. "What? Anyway..." She looked at the redhead again. "What's your name?""I'm called...""What the hell are you doing?" Her voice sounded angry, a voice she recognized.Katherina looked ahead."Mother!" she exclaimed upon seeing her standing a few meters away with her arms crossed. She quickly stood up, and the redhead did the same. "What... ar
Everything done at the pace of the victor receives, from that, the satisfaction's stride. It was a small phrase that had been said from his lips with such grace and arrogance that now, it only refutes itself in the worst ways, internally."Tom! Tom!" he shouted, trying to catch up with him, running until they reached the outskirts of the university. "Take me," he muttered between his running. When the hell did he start running so fast? He wondered, already internally annoyed. "No, I've got you now!" he exclaimed, finally reaching him and grabbing him by the arm, breathless. He took a deep breath. "Enough... Stop struggling with me!" he yelled."And you, stop following me! Get out of here, Harrison. I don't need you to be...""Shut up! I'm not leaving here, I didn't run all the way down that damn hallway to turn back around," he interrupted, and Tom started saying so many things that only made him angrier. "You. Shut me up. I'm the one talking, I'm here, and I don't give a damn if you
"Alright... Are we officially a couple now?" he asked, looking at her with his dark blue eyes. "Should I call you 'my lady' or 'my love'?" he asked, and she laughed. "I'm serious," he said."You can call me whatever you want." She kissed his cheek, and he smiled. "Did you manage to get them all?""The papers?" She nodded. "Yes, they're all here. I just need to give them to the director." She said as she put the papers in her backpack. "Hey..." She looked at the others. "Is there any problem with...?""I need to talk to you," he interrupted with seriousness. "Both of you. I want to know when my daughter started dating someone else." He crossed his arms and noticed her daughter's twisted expression. "I saw you, Katherina.""Mum, what do you want him to say?""I've never seen you around here," she evaded her daughter's question and looked at him. "You're not from here, are you?""No, ma'am," he replied, pulling on one side of his backpack. "Uh... I'm from Santa Monica, California," he ad
Being outside the university, Will said some funny things that made everyone laugh. He was a guy full of humor, and everyone knew it. They were minding their own business until Katherina was called with a voice that sounded like a squeal, she knew who it was."Shaila, what... What do you want?" Will said, noticing that the girl was just a few steps away from Tom."I wanted to know if you could come to a party I'm hosting tonight," she said, handing him a small piece of paper. "Your friend can come too," she added, looking Will up and down mischievously."I'm not his friend, miss. I'm his boyfriend," Will clarified, kissing Katherina on the cheek. Dalia stopped looking at him playfully."So you quickly forgot about Tom?" she asked, and the aforementioned person was standing behind Dalia, observing everything."Are you already moving on so fast?" she smiled cynically."I will tonight," Will replied, winking at her, eager to make her angry. "Don't you mind, right?""I... You can do whate
" This guy is awesome!" he exclaimed with a joyful laugh. "How the hell haven't I seen you before?"" I wonder the same thing!" he exclaimed, and they laughed. "You're way too energetic for your age."" I know," they laughed. "Katherina, honey," he called, taking a sip of water. "This guy is a catch," he told her, and the brunette laughed at her father's happiness.It's well known that phrase parents always say when they see the guy you like, or the guy you're attracted to..."If I see that guy near you, he's going to meet my friend, Dr. Pistol."A threat that may or may not be taken seriously. It all depends on when the time comes, but in this case, it seems that won't happen.Will introduced himself, and from the perspective of the brunette's father, there was not a hint of wanting to kill him. When night came and it was time for dinner, Katherina went to open the door and greet him with a kiss and a hug, introducing him to her parents, mainly her father. He only gave him a serious
While on the other side..."Where could he be?" she asked, pacing back and forth in the room. "He's not here, it's very late. What if something happened to him?" Her face turned into a look of concern. "Dominic...""My dear," he approached her and kissed her forehead, "stop with your stories. Tom is fine.""Then why isn't he here? It's almost midnight.""Maybe... he took the train.""He would have arrived at nine," she said, moving her foot frantically. "That boy is just like you.""Excuse me?" He made an offended gesture. "I never...""Every time you left, you came back whenever you pleased. Now Tom is doing the same."Dominic rolled his eyes and caressed his arm. Tom hadn't arrived, and although he didn't show it, he was worried."You know what? I'm going to get him," Nikki said, walking towards the door. She opened it, and Dominic stopped her. "Should I go or should you?"Dominic approached and took the doorknob."I'll go," he announced, about to open the door again. Suddenly, he h
A beautiful red car parked in front of the Jacksons' house. A beautiful middle-aged woman stepped out of it, smiling."¡Aunt Nadia!" Katherina shouted, running towards her and embracing her tightly. "Oh my God, I'm so happy," she said, kissing her cheek, and Nadia returned the gesture."So beautiful, my dear Katty!" Nadia exclaimed, kissing her temple. She still saw her as the mischievous little girl who gave her headaches. She missed her; it had been so long since they last saw each other.The rest of the family approached happily to greet her and helped her with her suitcases as they entered the house."I see everything remains the same," Nadia commented while looking at the house. "It seems that I'm the one who has changed." She chuckled. "Finally," she sighed, feeling at home with the people she loved."Do you want something to drink or eat?" Idris asked as he entered the kitchen."A cup of tea, please," Nadia smiled. Then she called Katherina, "My little one," and hugged her agai
