THREE YEARS LATER Picking up the call as soon as Diego got into the bathroom, Camilla said;“Bastian! What are you insisting on the same? I told you I couldn’t talk to you know!”“You haven’t picked up my calls, dear Cam. What am I going to do, uh? The merchandise is ready to be exported. What am I going to do, ah?”“Shhh! I don’t need to keep you remind me what I have to do!”“It’s getting late, Cam. It’s getting late. And if you don’t-”“Don’t ever dare to threaten me again like the last time. Let me remind you that you wouldn’t as powerful as you are if it hadn’t been for me.”The laugh of Bastian was heard from the other line. “Oh! Really? Now you’re telling me that you’re the one I should respect because if it hadn’t been for you I wouldn’t be in this place. Well, I think you’re forgetting the part where I found you instead of Cameron and that allow you to do what exactly you’re doing to Diego Ferrer.”“Fuck you!”“Hey, hey, madam Cameron wouldn’t say things like that.”“Leave m
CANADA Arriving at one of the most famous malls in the city, a car stopped in front of the sliding crystal door. From the car a woman in her 30’s got off, and in her hand the little hand of a five-year-old.The brown hair up, the black suit with the black heels. In her right arm the red bag that matched the sunglasses. Even her smooth makeup gave her that touch of mysteriousness she needed to confront to all people who had taken advantage from her. But of course, that day wasn’t going to be the one where she was going to appear in front of her husband and her dear sister, the one who also played her fool. Now, time had changed her. Now, she wasn’t the same fool. Now, three years had gone by and they hadn’t gone away in vain.“Mom, why are we here?” Gadriel asked as soon as his little green eyes danced around.Needless to say Gadriel felt bored by the idea of walking in that mall. Surely, there wasn’t going to be any fun around.Without Gadriel noticing his mother, Cameron just caress
Camilla smiled. Of course she was as shocked as her sister to have found there in such circumstances. But the difference was clear, the real Cameron had nothing to hide, and it’d a pleasure to talk to her and the world she left there three years ago, but she also knew it wasn’t the best moment.Putting on her sunglasses to not reveal her identity yet, she smiled and stood up. Slowly, turned around. She was another woman. There was no way Diego could recognize her. “Daddy!” The little girl said, running to her father.“Oh! My love!” Diego lifted up his daughter.“Daddy, I was lost. This is my new friend. He wanted to adopt me. His mom was going to start looking for you. Daddy, can I invite my new friend to our house. I can ask Rose to prepare us a delicious dessert.”For a strange reason Diego felt the need to pay attention to the woman in front of her and, for the first time, not focus on what he loved the most. His daughter. For the first time what she was saying wasn’t so importa
It was the third time that she tried to contact him but the man never answered.“As soon as you heard this message, call me back. We have a big problem!” Camilla said to the phone, then she sent the message.Walking back and forth in her room, there were many thoughts running in her head. Cameron had come back. The real Cameron was there in Canada. The secrets were about to come out. She wasn’t Cameron. But there was something she couldn’t take out of her head and it was the smile Cameron gave her like she was making fun of her, or she’d told her she was coming for her…. She didn’t know. That smile, that tenebrous smile was the thing she couldn’t take out of her head.Trembling, Camilla looked for the little bottle of pills she always took when she felt nervous, anxious, happy, sleepless, relaxed… The truth was she was already addicted to pills.“You’re not going to take anything from me, Cameron! I swear to God!” When Diego and his daughter arrived at home, Miss. Rose
ONE DAY LATER The meeting room was already occupied by the people who had been asked to assist at that important day. Some problems had come out in the last 30 days and the shareholders were there to listen to new solutions Diego Ferrer had for them.Whisperings and comments were heard there. The shareholders comparing their information set on the documents and opinions as long as Mr. Ferrer didn’t appear. It was going to be a big because if there was something for sure it was the fact that the shareholders were not going to allow Mr. Ferrer manage the company as he pleased. He needed to heard them out. The company had gone through so much and had put up with so much more thanks to the same holders.Meanwhile, in the main hallway of the company and the one which lead to the meeting room, a well-dressed man appeared with three more men dressed in black suits and walkie talkie headsets escorting him. Diego knew nothing good was going to come out of that meeting. The shareholders were m
Relying her head on his chest, Camilla –the real Camilla- was playing with one of her curls while listening to what Bastian had to say. Doubtless to say they were right for each other. Just the white blanket“I told you. You have to be more… you know, right? A little more pleaser to him. You need to let him know you can also be your sister. There’s an important part of Cameron in you.”Camilla lighten her cigarette. “Yeah, I’m not going to lose anything what I’ve gotten in these three years. I need to heritage all that grandpa has for me.”“Well, I see you’re wasting your time.”“Why?”“Because if you’re sister is already here, we should start planning something.”“I need to know what play she’s going to be up. I need to know her after those three years. Then, I’ll be able to make my moves.” Camilla shrugged. “That’s exactly what I love the most of you.” And then, the man got up in Camilla, kissing her neck and making her giggle.Cameron was about to know the real Camilla. The one w
A FEW DAYS LATER Some days had gone by since Ace and Cameron as Camilla had arrived at that company. They were the majority shareholders, so they had to be there, and even the second majority shareholder –an old man who saw potential in Cameron to lead the company with Ace and, of course, Diego proposed Ace and Cameron a place in the company where they work side by side with Diego Ferrer and make that work.Cameron didn’t turn down the offer. She needed to be close to that man to make him pay for what he did. She needed to approach her twin sister. Unlike the real Camilla, she didn’t know how her sister would act.With a folder in her hands, she walked to the office where the CEO of the company was waiting for her.Meantime, the same man who couldn’t take out of her head the vivid image of Camilla as Cameron and the way Cameron in his house had become a sweeter woman, that was kinda crazy and hard to believe. In which moment the woman started being all sweet and patient? He didn’t re
In the kitchen where Ace and the little boy were busy preparing the pasta that the baby had promised to his mother to be on the table as soon as she was back, Ace and Gadriel enjoyed their time together. Between laughs and smiles, Ace felt indeed the father of that baby boy. That was exactly what he wanted for his wife. A lovely family. A woman who could love him and his son.It seemed like Ace could finally forgive Diego for what he had done in the past. Now, Diego could continue with his life and Ace dedicate all of his time to the little family Cameron and him had constructed over those three years.“Daddy?” The little boy called his attention.“Mmmm?” Ace replied while frying the meat that was going to accompany the pasta.“Why don’t we have photos of you and my mommy dressed with a long white dress? All the houses where I have gone to have these photos. Is it normal that you and mommy hadn’t dressed like that?”Ace felt kinda uncomfortable. Of course he wanted to take the next st
