Viviane
But lying there, thinking insistently about the latest events wasn't doing me any good either. I decided to get up and go see my little one because lying there I wouldn't get anything.
I thought about packing my bag and going to stay in some hotel until I made a decision about my life, but since Felipe asked me to wait for him to come back, I would comply with his request.
After improving my appearance a little, I went to Sarah's room to see how she was doing and ended up being surprised by Felipe's presence, sitting in an armchair with her in his arms.
He looked at her in utter amazement and when he saw me enter, he looked at me intensely. I thought about turning around because I didn't know what to expect from that moment.
But he smiled at me and I stopped, after all, his smile was extremely beautiful and at that moment meant a lot.
" Look, Sarinha, Mom came," he said and I melted. " Someone was missing here, wasn't it my daughter?"
I then approached and he got up from the armchair, hugging both of us very fondly.
"I'm a completely accomplished man now, Viviane. And you are responsible for all the happiness I am feeling now" he spoke looking at me and I saw there my love reciprocated, as I always dreamed.
"Do you forgive me?" I said, to make sure it was real and not just me who was dreaming.
"I have no reason to forgive you. We both got it wrong. But the most important thing is that we are fixing everything we did wrong and now we will be happy, together. Me, you, and our daughter."
He hugged me even tighter and after kissing me affectionately, I hugged him even harder.
"I love you, Felipe."
"I thought I couldn't be even happier than I am, but hearing those words from you made me feel everything even more intensely, Vivi. I love you so much, and I love our daughter."
"You make me very happy too. I don't think anything could make me happier than being here with you and our daughter."
" Until anyway, huh? " João Pedro spoke by entering the room where we were. "Now that everything is cleared up and the two of them have come to terms with their feelings, I can take up residence in NY carefree."
"And we were arresting you?" Felipe asked sarcastically. "Why do I remember you leaving for New York more than a long time ago."
"But now I'm going to come back carefree."
"How brazen!" I said smiling too.
João Pedro was a special friend and now he was also my brother-in-law. I was happy to be really part of that family, with no lies weighing on my conscience.
"I need to thank you, my brother."
João Pedro arched an eyebrow in question.
" For you to have stood by Vivi, at the moment when she needed it most and I was a bastard " Felipe spoke in a humble way, without seeming anywhere near the same arrogant guy as before.
" Of nothing, then " João Pedro spoke all full of himself. " Although I didn't do it for you, I need to make it clear."
"So I should thank you," I said.
"Wow, how many thanks. You're so boring now" JP said, rolling his eyes. " I'll leave the couple alone. Let's go with me, Sarinha. Your parents are two fools."
Sarinha threw her arms at her uncle, smiling at the grimaces he made as he took her from Felipe's arms.
She was much better now, as she was smiling as always and her skin was at normal temperature.
The uncle took her with him and we stayed in the room, hugging and looking at each other passionately.
"What then?" he said and smiled.
"What?" I said and smiled too.
"By the way, my brother is right. We are two fools" Felipe said, letting out a laugh.
"Two happy, passionate fools."
"Let's go to our room, you need to rest. Today was crazy."
"I'm fine. I believe keeping that secret was killing my mental health and probably my physical health as well.
" What matters is that we are together and we will get married soon," he said between kisses " I want to get married as soon as possible. What do you think?"
"I want the same as you."
"What are you thinking about?" he asked worriedly, at my sudden silence. "We must clarify everything between us so that in the future we will not have problems due to misunderstandings, my love."
I smiled as I listened to the affectionate way in which he called me and said what was bothering me because he was absolutely right about this being the moment to clarify everything between us.
" That girl who was with you in the restaurant " I began to speak insecurely, but at your comforting expression, I asked what bothered me on several occasions. " What is the relationship between you? They traveled together to the United States."
"I traveled to the United States because I could no longer wait for my brother's arrival and I wanted to confront him, to know what the true relationship between the two of you is."
" In short, you were jealous to the point of going to New York to pick a fight with JP " I interrupted him, but my tone was amused and he noticed, as he smiled and confirmed:
"I was really jealous. I ended up discovering the relationship between Jack and João Pedro."
"What about the girl? Where does she come into this story?"
"She studied with me at New York University and was in need of help, she asked me for a job and I decided to help her." As I was already going to New York, I took the opportunity to introduce her to everyone and help them settle back in the city."
"I thought she was beautiful."
"No need to be jealous of Luana. I love you, Vivi. She's just a good friend."
I really believed his words and we continued our moment to talk about the past, to clean everything up. I'm sure that would be beneficial to our relationship. No uncertainties in our future together.
