The rest of the day passed quickly and when I realized it was already seven and two at night and the party is at nine o'clock. I tried to go to the bathroom and took my relaxing bath in the shower, I feel ten minutes the water fall on my shoulders and slide down my back, my muscles relax with the hot water and sigh. I leave the bathroom wrapped in my towel and look at my linen on the bed. I sigh and take my body cream, I start passing on my legs and thighs gently, after finishing, I take off my towel and step on the rest of the body. As the dress is strap, do not wear bra, just wear a panty and then, with difficulty, wear the long dress with delicate details. I take care when I sit on the bed, I don’t want to wrinkle my dress, it’s my face doing shit now. I wear the heels and take the mask, as it will almost not show my face, I do not pass anything in the eyes, but on the face whim in concealer and foundation and lips I pass a bright red lipstick to highl

The elevator door closes before I can get in, I take my hands up to my hair and pull hard trying to ease my anger. Damn it! I shouldn’t have said that to Anastasia. Her relationship with my brother is harder than anyone can imagine. He liked her as a child, but she didn’t give a damn about him, on the contrary, she once threw a rock at Daniel’s head. That day was beautiful, I can’t deny it.Some time later she reciprocated his feelings and the two even had a childhood courtship, but at twenty Daniel left for the UK to go to college, the two had no contact until he returned five years later, but he was different, Something happened on that trip that made him colder and dumber than usual. People change from water to wine to guando want, and my brother is one of those people.I remember that Tásia suffered a lot when she saw that he no longer felt anything for her and only wanted to know about partying and women. I spent the whole weekend at her house listening to the cries and trying to

I leave the bathroom wrapped in a towel I found in the drawer, for my luck Daniel is not, he must have gone to answer the door and fix breakfast. I walk in slow steps to the bed and see my clothes folded in a corner, next to a male blouse.I take a deep breath refusing to wear his blouse and wear my dress. The prom dress brings me so many memories... And now one more, when I get home the first thing I’m gonna do and put that dress in a place I can’t see it anymore. A knock on the door takes me from my daydreams, my eyes go to Daniel who is shirtless, but thank God he is in sweatpants, the man looks at me and smiles at me, as if we had not done something terrible.- I see you’re ready, that’s good. Breakfast has arrived, I went ahead and showered in the other bathroom.Daniel says and I just nod my head averting my eyes to the ground.— Look at that, Kate. You work cleaning my brother’s floor, so we’ll hardly ever see each other, but in compensation you’ll get along with Cassian and An

After a troubled conversation with Cassian, I leave the room and Tásia waits for me with both hazelnut eyes very attentive. She looks like my neighbor, the owner Marta is so gossip, that if doubt she knows a gossip before it happens.- How was it? He fired you?She asks with palpable distress in her voice, almost smiling at her concern.- No, I begged him to stay, I think he took pity on me.I lie to my face and almost feel my nose grow.- You have no idea the relief I’m feeling, this company is not the same without you.Tásia smiles and I reciprocate. I approach her and hug her, I feel like Judas himself now, but I need to enjoy while I still have her friendship. Anastasia’s hug is so warm, it feels like the hug my mother gave me when I was little. I feel welcomed in it.- Now I need to leave, I’ll go back to work tomorrow.I talk after I get away from the warm hug.- All right. See you tomorrow, see if you can take my calls.Her eyes get serious, but I know she only cares about me.

The week passed quickly, as always. The days for me are the same, my life has become a fucking routine, so when it finally comes Friday night I just want to throw myself in bed and cry myself to sleep. It’s hard to try to find yourself again after so much time lost inside myself, after being trapped in a world where no woman should stay. It’s so dark and scary...The worst thing is that for years I thought I was guilty of everything, that my attitudes led me to live that way, I had no one to help me. I moved away from my friends and my parents, I had nothing and no one, it was just me and Ethan, but in fact it was always me and me.I wipe my tears and try to push away those thoughts that only give me trigger. I hear my phone beeping and I remember I have an appointment with Cassian. Damn mouth that only brings me confusion and trouble, if I had stayed silent I would not have to lie to him again. I hate lies, but they are now part of my life. I unlock the phone screen and see the notif
