Mi Amora

Realization

As soon as i entered the room, I noticed that she was pale.
"I... want to go to my room" Valentina said
"No, please" i really didn't want to leave her side
"Listen, i know i lied. I just wasn't ready to talk about the past and it happened so quick... i'm sorry okay? I promise i'm going to tell you everything soon but please, don't push me away" i added
"Then tell me when you're ready because I ain't staying here" she said
I walked to the door and locked it.

"You sure?" I chuckled
"I really hate you" she sighed
"That's sweet. I love you too" i said as i walked to the sofa

She turned her back on me and laid on the bed. Few hours passed and it was midnight. I was still awake, I couldn't sleep. I walked closer to Valentina and laid next to her, hugging her tightly. That's when i fell asleep. But all of a sudden i felt her absence. I woke up.

"Valentina?" I asked as i checked the bathroom
Where is she?
I went downstairs and checked every room. Everyone was asleep. I took a look at the pool and there she was all dressed up... drinking alcohol... I went outside and walked towards her.

"Valentina?" I looked at her
Tears were rolling down her cheeks. It felt like someone shot me in my heart.

"What happened?" I added "just tell me who hurt you and i'll kill that motherfucker"
She took another sip from the bottle.
"It's none of your business" she said
"Yes it is. My wife is crying and you technically belong to me so yes it's my business"

More tears started rolling down her cheeks.
"Valentina tell me what's wrong!" I yelled
"Don't tell me what to do!" She yelled back as she looked at me

It was obvious that she was hurt, but you can see fear in her eyes... I hugged her and didn't let go. She hugged me back.

"I won't let anyone hurt you mi amora"
"you promise?" She whimpered
"I promise" i added "But now you should rest"

i picked her up as i took the bottle from her hand. I walked towards our room.
"I think i'm going to throw up" she said
————————

I drew circles with one hand on her back and with the other one, i held back her hair while she was vomiting in the bathroom.

"It's okay" i comforted her
After few minutes, she was done. She got up, cleaned her mouth and her face... she walked towards the bed and laid down. I tucked her in and kissed her forehead. Her eyes were still teary.
As i tried to walk away, she held my hand.

"no... don't go" she whispered
"Alright i'll stay next to you" i said as i laid next to her
She rested her head in the crook of my neck as she mumbled,
"I haven't forgiven you yet"
I chuckled.

I woke up next morning and looked around. I was the happiest man ever to see my wife still laying in my arms. I hope i just could tell her...

"um brother" Amara opened the door a bit
"There's some guy down there and... i think i heard him say he wants to meet Valentina" she added

Meet my wife? Who would it be? I wonder. I slowly got up of bed and made sure to not wake her up. I walked downstairs with my sister,

"Did he tell you his name?"
"Uh yes it's Kelvin Jones" Amara answered
"Kelvin?"
I walked to the door and saw a tall tan man with black hair standing there.
"Her husband right? Mr. Sebastian Gonzalez" Kelvin affirmed
"Yes it is. But who are you?" I asked
"Kelvin Jones, Valentina's friend from college" he announced
"And what are you doing here?"
"I need to talk to her. I need to help her and-"
"Great. She's my wife and i can help her. No one's need your help"
But then suddenly it hit me.

"Wait, Valentina wasn't feeling okay yesterday. Were you the one responsible?"
"So i was right. She wasn't okay. Sir please i need to talk to her" he said

"You're not-"
"What's happening here?" Valentina approached us and faced kelvin
"Oh Kelvin. What are you doing here?" She added
"I need to help you. Your father-" he got interrupted
"Don't call him a father. What kind of person is he to run away and leave his daughter? He's scared for his life and not for his daughter's"
Amara was surprised, so was i? Kelvin was left speechless.

I need to know what's happening. Why did her father run away exactly? Why is Valentina's life is danger? Or does Kelvin know about...
My thoughts were interrupted by my wife putting her hand on her mouth and hurrying to the bathroom.
