ENZO MORETTI
After the kiss everything changed. That's when I was sure we were each other' s. After that kiss I couldn't sleep without thinking about her. And now that I was going to play rough, I was going to win her back. And I wasn't going to make room at all for her to run away from me. I need her back. I could hardly sleep in such happiness. She's gone with him, yes, I know that. But she's still mine. Her heart is mine. And the lips were mine. I felt it when I played it. After all this time. Even though she didn't want to, she gave in. And I had a plan.
I left the office early and went to the flower shop and there I was looking and looking for the best way to win her back.
"And what do you want?
"I want red roses.
"How many sirs? I showed her the car and she looked at my car, shook her head when she saw the trunk open. " Does it fill the trunk? She smiled.
I smiled and told her to fill the trunk. And she did it. It filled the trunk of my red convertible with red roses, and it was time to go to it. We had something to decide and I'm going to insist on it every day of my life. And I went to the company. When I got to the company door, I was waiting for her to leave.
Right there at the door of the company, waiting for her to arrive. I saw it when she approached Carol. I smiled with a bouquet of roses in my hand. She approached dull.
"What is this, Enzo? What are you doing?
"It's for you. And it's not just those. When I opened the trunk of the car, she looked, got scared, and I heard Carol's scream.
"Oh, my God, they're perfect.
"I want to say that I love you, Valentina, and I want to rebuild a life with you. I want you to be my wife. I've never loved another woman like I love you. I never wanted another woman like I want you. Give us both a chance.
When I said that, everyone stopped, stared, and Carol was scared. And everybody was screaming,
"Give him a chance, give him a chance, how beautiful, he's romantic, he loves you.
I heard voices from all sides, the voices were echoing between the two of us, and I kept looking into her eyes, which shone. And she had her eyes full of tears, and I held her hand and I took it to put it in the bouquet, and she took it off.
"Please give us a chance. She still looks at everyone there who was jealous of her and laughing. I opened the poet in the car. "Let's have dinner and talk.
I could miss my day, but there's no way. I've been waiting all day to surprise her, and now I'm here. I looked up at the sky, I knew it was going to rain. The rain is what gave even more romance to both of us.
Everyone was jealous, talking and I look at them both.
"Take it easy, friend, I think a dinner for you two to talk to finish will be better. Or maybe start over.
Carol. I don't mean to finish. I said happy.
"I'm just talking to my friend, that's all.
She ended up accepting and we went to dinner. I knew I was going to have to do a lot more than that, flowers, and dinner, and she still got mad, and without staring at me.
"You didn't have to do that. Enzo, because you know very well that we don't stand a chance together anymore.
"But I want to try, a new life. First, we're going to have dinner and then we talk, okay?
She agreed to go to dinner, and I got so excited. When we arrived at our favorite restaurant, it's been so long since we've been there. She still looked admiring the place.
"Wow, it's still the same thing, it hasn't changed a thing. Isn't that, right?
" The only thing is that food and every day better.
"Do you still order food here?
"Yes, almost every day. But tell me, did you like the project?
"You don't have to do any of this, you know that I think for us we've already had what we had to give.
"Please, no fighting. What have you been doing these past few years?
She went down her head, she was so beautiful, and I was in love.
"Working, studying, traveling rebuilding my life, but what do you want so badly to talk to me?
" Valentina, please I love you, I'll repeat as many times as it takes that you are the only woman I love, the only woman I want.
"Please, Enzo, let's not start.
"Give us a chance, let's start our lives over, I swear to you it's going to be all different.
" Unlike Enzo when I got there in the company, everything is the same and besides everything, Cecilia still continuous on her side after everything she did, please, I do not want to start over the fights and discussions.
"My grandmother, she's dying to miss you.
"Don't put Grandma in the middle of it, that's something between you and me, but you know very well what I think is that it's between me and you, it's over, there's no chance for us. He hasn't stopped talking and throws everything in my face. "What we have today, Enzo, is only professional. I don't want it to be more than that.
"I love you, Valentina. I want to understand to this day why you left me. Because of all this.
"For losing my mother and my baby. I lost my world. I was humiliated, I got caught, got kicked and I was a lover. And for what? I don't need this. I'm much more than that. Did you understand?? She was excited and screamed. "There is no more us and there is no more chance and I will not go back to the past and suffer.
"I want more chance with you. And I do whatever you want, any way you want. I played all the cards I had to convince her. "Seeing my share in the company, and we moved. I do what you want, but I don't want to be without you. I held her hand and took her hand and got up.
"For both of us, there's no more chance. And it's no use, you can do whatever you want, but I'm not going back to you, and I want you to leave me alone.
When she said that, I felt a stab in my chest, the urge to cry. And she left the restaurant without looking back, didn't say anything else. And I was there devastated, hurt and the tears rolled. I lost her forever. I lost the only woman I really love. I walked out disconsolate. I wanted to try to get that pain out of my chest, forget everything I lived, that I was living there at that moment. She left me for good, she doesn't want me. And me walking around where we walked after our dinner and the rain hitting my body. I looked at that huge square next to my apartment still, trying to figure it out, trying to digest what happened. That's when I sat under that rain and the rain fell on my body and brought back memories.
I wanted that rain so badly to take all my pain, all the anger I was feeling at the time, for my stupidity of letting Cecilia dominate my life. But unfortunately, it was too late. I walked in the rain, going home, disheartened, still hoping that she would return. But she said goodbye and she didn't tell me,
Want. I remembered when I went into the house building and I looked back. I remembered when she came across the street in the rain and screaming.
"Enzo... Enzo, wait for me."
And the rain brought along that longing, the anguish, and the fear of continuing alone. When I got home, I got scared, the lights on and scared the smell of food and I thought it was her and I ran and hugged, all wet, and cried in her arms.
Even though the pain was so great, I needed to continue, but even if the pain was so great, I needed to continue, but I was seeking strength to get back to my work, to my normal life. Tears rolled down my face and my grandmother's hug warmed me at that moment. She took the quilt on the couch and threw it into my hands.
My son, what happened? Why did you get all wet like that? Look at me, you're so sad, don't be like that. I didn't have the strength to say she left me. " - Enzo, talk to me. I didn't have the strength to talk, I didn't have the guts to let go of what she just told me. She still dried my hair again. What happened?
"Grandma, she left me for good, she said goodbye, she said we don't stand a chance, but I too was very wrong. Why did I let Cecilia run my life? Because I believed every single thing, she said to me back then. I should have sided with Valentina when she went to the hospital to visit Valentina's mother. I should have cut it there, Grandma, the first time. I was blind, I let pride blind me like that. Now what am I going to do without her? Help me, Grandma, understand everything that's going on in my life. I've never loved her the way I love her.
"I already know what we're going to do. We're going to have a family dinner and so we're going to spend the weekend and try. You can't walk away from your family like this right now, you need everyone. And another thing, Enzo, you need to follow your heart, you need, if you want to continue, try to win it back, don't give it up. If you think you have a chance, let's go all the way.
And I ended up accepting and I went to my grandmother's house with her. I needed a warmth, a cuddle, I needed to talk to my family, I needed to try to forget all that, which was so difficult. And after driving hours with my grandmother and her telling me about my mother's things, I smiled, and I knew how much I was loved. And when I got home, I got the hug, my mom's warmth.
"Welcome, Enzo, you haven't visited your family in a long time.
I feel what I do and the affection, but I left the family aside, everything here reminds me of Valentina.
They made dinner and talked nonstop, and I was there suffering and trying to follow.
"It's going to be all right, my son. And why not travel?
"I'm going to make a trip I need to rest.
"He's been working a lot, son. But did you see that Cecilia's family company is going through a rough time? My father told me something I thought would happen—they're out of new projects and sent several employees away.
I kept remembering that Cecilia was at my house, so that's it. And because you didn't just say it instead of having a fight with Valentina.
"That's because I stopped giving the projects and I'm not going to help at all, but for me they will fail.
"I talked to Gonzales, and he's devastated to sell.
"Buy dad if you wish.
I need to rediscover myself again and leave everything behind. After everything I've been through, it's too hard. I stayed away and my grandmother hugged me.
"You're right, I think a trip would do you good Beach, sun, sea, women, what do you think? And go with Enzo.
"No, he's stuck to his girlfriend now. And I don't want to get in the way of his life. But I'm going to rest.
When I went up to the room was worse, I look at the bed and I remember what lives with Valentina there. I walked up to the porch and closed my eyes remembering that they arranged to trick the family member and her grandmother into thinking they were having sex. And the fight over the bed.
"I miss you."
It's been a tiring day. I tried to stay with my family all weekend, but I couldn't because everything reminded me of him and wanting to be with her. I came back ahead of schedule. I knew I needed to recover. But staying there at my parents' house wasn't going to solve anything. And it was just going to bring back more memories of the moments I lived in this place with her. And I came home on Sunday. I was discouraged, but I was determined. I was going to travel, do something different and try to let Valentina live her life. When the doorbell rang and I ran to open, hoping it was her, after all the doormen didn't warn her, she was going up. And when I opened the door, it was Cecilia.
I still suspected with discouraged and was about to close the door and she pushes in.
"Cecilia, again, what did I say to you? Just leave me alone.
"I need to talk to you, Enzo. I think for everything we've lived, for our friendship, since when we were kids, our first time, our first love, I was their first love. Why don't you give me a chance to at least talk to you, explain?
"You have nothing more to explain, Cecilia. After everything that's happened, do you think there's still a need to explain anything?
"I love you, Enzo. That's the truth. And I can't go on without you. Give us a chance after all we've lived. I think I deserve it.
I walked around the room and watched her say the barbarities and I turn around with my hand on my chin.
"I won't be able to love you again, Cecilia. After everything that's happened, the lies, the bad things, the lies, you are fooling me by saying horrible things. I took the opportunity to say everything I felt and wanted. "You tricked me. And that I can't forget. And when I lost my memory, you should have been honest with me, you should have told me the truth, you know, especially since it would be easier for me to get my memory and my life back, but no, you lied, you said horrible things. You've done horrible things and yet you think you have the right to charge me a chance? I look at her who was crested. —
Chance, we give to that person who really wants to, not the one who wants to gain advantages like you did.
"Forgive me!
"That's it, Cecilia, there's no chance of second chance, and no third, no fourth. It follows your life, that I am following mine.
She looked at me, put her hand on her face, took a deep breath and said.
"So, it's goodbye, for our dreams.
"It's not goodbye, it's an end point.
She left, with her head down, and I went on with my life. I was going to keep fighting for Valentina, I wasn't going to give her up.
"I can't give up on you Valentina."
