Chapter 5 5

We finish lunch, I pay the bill, I take Clara to the bathroom, I clean her and we leave the restaurant. I see on my cell phone that it's 3 pm, so I decide to go to the mall to buy clothes.

It took us about 15 minutes to get to the mall, I buy some clothes and shoes for me and Clara too, I bought her a bear that she loved and named it Tedy lol. After shopping, we headed home.

At home, I give Clara a bath and dress her in unicorn pajamas, it's cold, so I put socks on her and make her wear some very warm unicorn slippers, I go to my room, I also take a shower and put on a pair of unicorn pajamas. unicorn, socks and slippers just like Clara's. I go downstairs and find her having a snack, I grab a coffee and sit next to her playing on her cell phone.

"After lunch, let's do our homework.- I say to her, who makes a funny face, making Joana and I laugh

After she has lunch I help her do her homework, then pack her backpack for tomorrow and I sit with her in the living room watching cartoons, when I look at her I realize that she is sleeping, with good reason, she must be very tired, I go to her room, take a blanket and cover her.

I put on a movie and watch it, 30 minutes later Clara wakes up, it's 5 o'clock at night, I pull her onto my lap.

"Shall we have dinner?" I ask her, who nods, still looking sleepy, I take her to the downstairs bathroom, I wash her face so she can wake up.

We sat at the table for dinner and at the same time Robson enters the house with a bouquet of flowers, he walks towards us, kisses Clara on the forehead, comes towards me and hands me the flowers.

"For you my love!-speaks smiling

What's going on here? What do you mean my love? If they had told me, I wouldn't believe it, I'm quite surprised.

"Thank you!- I give a weak smile and receive the flowers

"I'm just going to take a shower and I'll be right down.-he says and walks towards the stairs, I get up and leave the flowers in a vase in the room and go back to the table, sitting down.

I serve Clara, who is quiet, I think she is still sleepy and I feed her. Then I take her to brush her teeth and make her sleep.

I go down to dinner, Robson is already helping himself, I sit down and help myself too.

"Well, Angela, I know I've been a terrible husband.- speech

"Did you just find out today?

"I wanted to apologize for that, I'm willing to fight for our marriage.-he says looking at me, I'm not believing what I'm hearing, honestly I don't even know what to say.

"And you think it's that easy Robson? After you walked away from me for no reason. How many times did I ask what was going on and you said nothing was going on? I tried everything and you didn't give a shit about me . He's always busy, he always comes back late and he doesn't give any explanations. And now you think that a simple bouquet of flowers solves everything?- I say irritated, he looks at me in surprise with wide eyes, I get up and go up the stairs, I hear him call me but I don't listen, I go into my room and allow myself to cry .

After what he's done, does he think a bouquet makes up for his absence as a husband from home? I wipe the tears that fall from my face, I won't cry for him anymore. I go to the bathroom and wash my face and lie in bed, thinking and it takes me an hour to fall asleep.

***

I open my eyes slowly and I hear the noise of the shower, Robson is taking a shower, I take my cell phone and see that it is 7 am, minutes later he leaves the bathroom.

"Good morning!- speech

"Good morning!" I say going into the bathroom and closing the door, I brush my teeth, take off my clothes and take a shower. After waking her up, I sit on her bed and stroke her hair.

"Wake up, my love! - I say with my hands in her hair, she shakes it but doesn't wake up. - Daughter? - I shake her a little and she wakes up

"Mommy!-she says, scratching her eyes

"Good morning, daughter! - I kiss her forehead, I take her in my lap, taking her to the bathroom, I help her brush her teeth and give her a bath, after the dry bath and moisturize her skin, I put her on to her uniform, some white sneakers, I put a bracelet on her little arm, a perfume and comb her hair. hair.

"Ready, how beautiful!- I say admiring her

"Thanks mom.-thank you, I grab your backpack

"Go have breakfast while mom gets ready, okay?" I say and she nods heading towards the stairs, I go to my room, take off my robe and put on a flowery dress, with a plunging neckline, tight around the waist and open below, a pink blazer, I wear flat sandals, I have a 1.55 cmtall, so I'm short, I put on a necklace, put red lipstick on my lips, grab some sunglasses, put on perfume, grab my bag and go downstairs to find Clara eating cereal and a fruit salad.

"Good morning, Joana!" I say, sitting down, grabbing a cookie and putting it in my mouth.

"Good morning, ma'am!" she responds pleasantly, we have our breakfast and leave the house, I leave Clara at school and go to work.

***

At that moment I'm in my office sorting out some things and I hear someone knocking on the door.

"Come in-I say without taking my eyes off the computer

"Angela has a man here wanting to talk to you.-one of the girls who works here says

I hope it's not who I'm thinking. I don't think he would get to that point.

"Tell him to come in.-I say and she leaves, seconds later a big man in a suit enters, looks like a security guard

"Good morning, ma'am!-he says seriously

"Good morning, how can I help you?" I ask curiously

"I have orders to take her with me.-says

"What do you mean? Whose orders?- I ask already imagining the answer

"Leon Escobar.

"I'm not going anywhere.- I say

"I have orders to take her, even against her will and I don't want to be forced to take her against her will.-he says."
