Valeria's p.o.v:

I was a mess, today nothing was going like it should! I mean to make matters worse we had to go and see my mother in law in a few hours, and honestly I felt like crying! I had woken up without Christian and I wasn't used to it and that just set me off, his side of the bed was cold which met he had been gone for a while... and ladies and gentlemen made me more upset then anything, I don't know what's wrong with me, being this emotional was driving me crazy, I've never been like this...ever!!! "Valeria can I come in please" I heard the voice of my sister say from my bedroom door. "Yes" I said wiping the tears from my eyes. "Valeria what's wrong" my sister said coming in. "I don't know" I cried out. "Sister" Araceli said coming and sitting down next to me. "I'm sorry" I said. "It's okay, but what's wrong" she asked. "I don't know Araceli, I woke up without Christian and I just started crying" I said. "Well it's understandable, I mean the boy has felt your side, but if you must know Mateo said there was a small problem with one of there projects and it needed to be taken care of right away, so he sent me to tell you, to go meet his mom without him and Matteo, that they'll be there as soon as they can, and to let her know that there coming" she said. "NO, no that won't work" I said getting out of bed. "Valeria clam down, sister stop freaking out, Valeria what are you so worked up about, I need you to sit down and find yourself again, right now I need my strong sister back, the that doesn't care about what people say about her or what they think about her. Listen to me Valeria do you really think that Christian would ask you to do this if he didn't think you could, Valeria look at what you built, yes we had the help of mom and dad, but look at were we are, you've gone up against people who said you couldn't and you beat them, so get up and get ready, to prove to your man that you can do it" she said. I sat back and looked at her..... she was right.... how many times had Christian told me the same thing.... I had to get out of my head. "Thank you sister I needed that" I said. "Your welcome, also there's something different about you, I can't put my hand on it yet" she said. "I don't know either, but I have to get ready and go meet my mother in law" I said getting up and working to my closet to pick out an outfit. "Now that's my sister, well get ready I'll drop you off at the restaurant, let me know when your ready and will go" she said before walking out.

Once I picked out what I wanted, I quickly got in the shower and curled my hair and did a light make up look and grabbed my purse and went down stairs to look for my sister

Once I picked out what I wanted, I quickly got in the shower and curled my hair and did a light make up look and grabbed my purse and went down stairs to look for my sister. "Araceli let's go" I said. She came out of the kitchen and smiled when she saw me, we walked out and got into her car and then we were off, once she dropped me off I walked in, but not before texting Christian that I loved him and to take his time getting here. I was shown the way to one of the private rooms, I was told that I was the first one here, which made me feel a little better about the whole situation. I didn't have to wait for long before the door opened and in came his mother. I stood up to greet her, "Hello Ms. Amelia" I said. "Hello Valeria" she said in shock. "Please sit down and join me" I said. "I came ahead, Christian and Matteo had to take care of a few things before joining us" I told her. "That's fine but to be honest I didn't think this would happen" she said not meeting my eyes. "I think we both each other an apology but before that I think we both have some explaining to don't you think" I said. "Your right Valeria" she said. "I would like to go first, if that's okay, I know I have said this before but, I don't know which other way to say this, but I love your son with all my heart, and I'll always love your son, his it for me I'll never love someone else like I love him, I know that now, which is way I said yes when he asked me to marry him. But that wasn't the problem, the problem is that you are not okay with this, listen the last thing I want is for me to be the reason why you and Christian don't talk anymore" I said. She sat back in her chair and didn't say anything. "I know that I myself have done some pretty bad things, but believe me when I say that I would do anything for my boys, they are all I have, their father was never in the picture, once I fell pregnant with Christian I thought that me and his father would be together, but sadly that didn't happen and for awhile it was just Christian and me and then I made another mistake and got back with the Christian's father and soon fell pregnant with Matteo, so now here I was with a three year old and a new born baby, so I felt like I had to do something to make sure my babies had everything they needed and wanted, I did my best and slowly we made it by, and then in a blink of an eye my babies weren't babies anymore, and then one day Christian told me he was in love.... He said he fell in love with a princess and that she was the girl he wanted to marry, she just didn't know it yet, so me thinking that it was just a small crush that would go away, but I was wrong very go, until one day I asked him who it was that stole his heart and so he told me. You could only imagine the horror I felt when I found out who it was, Valeria I want you to understand that at that point we had nothing like the boys have now, I didn't want him to suffer, when it came to be known that we didn't come from money, that their mother was a single mother who had to work multiple jobs  day in and day out to be sure we had what we needed. An so I asked him to leave you.... An he did but at a price, my son wasn't the same any more he lost a big part of himself and as a mother it was hard there where many times when he felt like coming back to you, but he respected my wishes not to go and look for you, but he was terrible at hiding the fact he would watch you from far.... So we moved but even then he kept tabs on you, while trying to make a name from him self and for Matteo; an they did... they both worked so hard to do it, blood sweat and tears. I would hope that he would forget you and find someone else, but no he didn't not once did he ever get with anyone else in any way, at that point I should've figured it out that you were it for him, I don't want to lose my son, and if you make him happy then so be it, I may not like it I won't lie to you, but I'm not the one with you so I'll have to suck it up and deal with it, all I ask for you is patience" she said. "Thank you for trusting me and telling me your story, so now I have to tell you my story, listen I love my parents I do, but thy where always away on business trips, and they took us along with them and we were exposed to the fast life and all the hustle of the business life style , so that was kind of shaped us into what we are, but it all came to a crashing stop when I met Christian by chance and it all changed. He showed me what it was to love and to see from a different point of view, yes we were young but love doesn't have a number and it sure did show with us. Did you know that I was willing to leave it all, my parents, sister, money all of this if it meant keeping and staying with Christian. It hurt me too, he took a big part of me, so imagine my surprise when all of a sudden I start to see yellow roses again after so long and then Christian drops in and bam my world is flipped upside down, because I know myself that I haven't been the nicest person. What I had turned into was not the girl Christian fell in love with, I had become I shell of the former girl I was. I didn't care what I did and who I hurt has long as I got what I wanted!   I was hurt in what I felt was the worst way imaginable, and I had become so cold that even my own sister suffered from it. So you can only imagine how I felt when the one person who understood me came back I didn't want to see him because I felt like I never got an answer has to why he left me and that haunted me for so long! I will always feel so thankful to your son for loving me the way he does and for still being able to love even after all the crazy things I did! So I now ask you can we look past all of our differences and get along for Christian, we are going to be seeing a lot of each other and your future grandchildren are going to want to see their grandmother(😉). But before you answer I don't have to problem with letting it be known that I'm in fact with your son, I just don't want no one to talk about him, I know not the best reason but can you blame me, is that bad that I want to keep him to myself a little longer, I just got him back and once we are seen together in public it wont be like that we will always have cameras in our face" I said. She back again and didn't say anything for a while, and I let her, I also sat back and just let my thoughts wonder, I was glad to finally get everything I wanted to off my chest. His mom calling my name pulled me out of my thoughts, "Valeria, I don't think that I can say your not a good match for my son, because your love seem to have stood the test of time, so all I can do is say that I'm sorry about what happened that night, I didn't mean for her to get hurt is she okay? Is her baby okay?" she asked me. "Raymond's wife wasn't badly hurt just a bruises on her belly, but the baby was not harmed and she recovered pretty good, if anything it was more of the scare she took." I told her. "I think I own her an apology" she said. "Well if I'm being honest then she told us that if we sat down to talk to you then she would forgive you, you see Raymond left it up to Alexandra to decide what to do about this whole situation" I said. "Oh well in that cause I feel a lot worse, I never wanted to hurt anyone, so please pass it down and apologize on my behalf" she said. "I will let Alexandra know" I said. I gave her a smile and sat back and in that moment Christian and Matteo came in looking out of breathe. "Is everything okay it looks like you both ran all the way here" I said getting up to greet Christian. "Oh wow Valeria yeah greet your husband and ignore your brother in law" Matteo teased both of us. "Oh Matteo leave them alone" their mom said coming from behind us to hug her sons. "Mom, we had wanted to talk to you together, but we got caught up at work and Valeria ended up coming alone, and by the looks of it you both handled things pretty well" he said. "I did this for you" I whispered. "No you did this for us" he said kissing the top of my head. I held him on to him tightly, "Christian, listen I think I got it all wrong, like I told Valeria I may not like it, but it's not about me, I think I tried to hold on to tight to you and your brother that I forgot to see that you two don't need me anymore" she said. "No, no mom no we, well I mean I still need you" Matteo said coming over to hold her hands.  "Listen mom, I love you, we all love you and we don't to lose you but please no more surprise's" Christian said. "Valeria and Christian are going to be together for a long time, no reason in trying to stop them, all we can do is wish them the best and stand beside them" Matteo said. "Thank you so much" I said to their mom, "No more not liking each other, we will get to know more of each other" I added. "Yes, yes we will" she said. After that we all sat down and had brunch. It wasn't long before I got a call from a new friend of mine. "Hello, is everything okay" I asked her. "Well yes and no" she said. "What do you mean is everything okay" I asked. "Well I need you to help me, with something" Alexandra asked. "Before I say yes, what is it" I asked. "Okay so you know how, Raymond can be overprotective, and I just need him loosen up a bit and relax, so I told him that I wanted a baby shower well I pretty much want to ruin it, what I want you to do is call some of your friends and ask them to pose as paparazzi and then leave, giving me enough time to escape" she said all at once. "So your trying to tell me that you wan to drive your husband mad" I asked her. "Yes and no, what I want is for him to realize that he can't keep me hidden forever, I want to scare enough to know that sooner or later someone is going to find out who I am and make a big deal out of it and then blow things out of the water" she said. "How do you know this will work Alexandra" I asked her. "Well the correct answer is we don't, but we won't know until we try" she said. "Well you do have a point" I said. "So are you in or out" she asked me. "Okay I'll do it" I said. After hang up the phone, I thought to myself.... What's the worst that can happen.........



Alexandra's p.o.v:

I should've known that somethings are better left unsaid and left alone, but I mean like it's not my fault things things got out of hand.... Okay so may it was my fault but who would dare blame a pregnant lady... I knew Raymond couldn't stay mad at me for long... I would make him crack and give into anything I wanted. Yes ladies and gentlemen I had my dear husband wrapped around my little finger and it was now showing.... I had told my husband that I wanted a baby shower.... Like I said what can go wrong.... Well in this family a lot of things.... I should have learned that by now, but I'll save that for another day!! It's safe to say that Raymond is starting to get really irritated with me, but the thing is that he won't snap no matter now hard I try!! He should've known by now what it is that I'm trying to do, I need alone time! But he won't leave! So I started to cry and made him go buy me fresh donuts, and my husband  the sweet heart that he is went to go get them for me, but of course he got home as fast as he could which made me cry even more, which in turn made him all nervous and he took another trip to the store to buy me lemonade. When he got back home after 30 minutes, I was once again sad that had been the longest time period we have spent apart since we got together again. I was at a lost again, how do I him to leave me alone without hurting his feeling! "Alexandra my world, what's wrong"? He asked me. Well this was my chance to tell him, but I couldn't not after I saw the look on his face, he was willing to do anything for me... It made my whole heart melt for him. "Raymond can you something for me" I asked him all sweetly. "Yes for you anything so long as it doesn't hurt you" he said. "Okay so about that party, I really want one and I want you to plan it for today" I told him. "Alexandra you know we can't" he said. "But, but you said would do anything for me" I said. "Well yes I did" He said. Before he could finish talking I cut him off. "Raymond are you saying that you can't do what I asked of you, your lovely wife who doesn't ask for anything at all" I said turning away from him. "No, no that is not what I said, what is that I'll work on it right way" he said. "Oh okay thank you my love" I said all sweetly. I shouldn't be doing this, I really shouldn't be doing this but this was a way to over come some of the obstacles that were going to come our way sooner or later.... Yes ladies and gentlemen my plan was to ruin my own baby  shower not like I needed one anyway, his family had gotten almost everything someone would need for a baby and I was super grateful  for it all, but my meaning behind was to show my husband that everything was going to be fine, he had become super overprotective and overbearing and of course I could always talk to him, but that wasn't getting me anywhere, he would brush it aside and tell me not to worry and that he had it all taken care of, but I could see how stressed out he was and as his wife it was my job to make sure he was taken care of, so while he was out the store I called his parents and siblings a long with my new friends Valeria and Araceli to help me with my crazy plan, of course I told them that I would take the blame for the outcome... Like I said what's the worst that could happen.... "Alexandra my love, everyone close to us is coming and helping with this party that you wanted" he said. "Don't say it like that, you make it sound like a bad thing" I said all sad. "No, no I'm sorry, it's just I'm a little worried that's all" he said taking a hold of my hands. I looked into his eyes and I smiled at him, Oh my sweet, sweet husband you played right into my hands.....
