    Chapter 4 4


    As Luz leaves the dining room with Charlize, Gerard grabs Dan’s tie and throws him into the office.


    Was that proof enough for you? -she tells him entering with him and closing the door-


    -Hey, how jealous… you should be proud of her, I’m sure that man who stole her heart is you.


    -Do you believe? -he asks hopefully-


    -But he practically yelled at me to stay with Charlize to see what happened to you – Gerard sits smiling


    like a silly boy and Danughs -. That girl is special, she is not moved by the physical or the material, she


    is authentic, man. I would love to find one like this.


    – Get in line for decent singles, stop being so messy with your life.


    -Hey, what’s the point of eating pancakes with…?


    -Don’t say it, please – he interrupts Dan before he says the full name, because he feels that just hearing


    it again, he will run away -. I have no idea, I just know that they looked appetizing, my mouth was


    watering to have them in front of me.


    – Aren’t you pregnant? – Dan’s mockery makes him frown –


    -You will not believe that my crime had consequences…


    – Or maybe you connected so much with Luz that you are feeling the symptoms of her pregnancy – his


    friend tells him to reassure him –


    Do you believe in those things?


    -I don’t know, I would have to get someone pregnant to find out… – and his memory takes him back six


    years, when he was going to be a father and that unfortunate woman took away the opportunity to have


    a child to take care of – I think I’ll go You need to rest and I need to sleep.


    -Rest, is the only thing I get since that night, I have not been able to sleep a single full night.


    -I promise I’ll help you, my friend, just be patient.


    -I hope the truth doesn’te when you’re happiest.


    Dan looks at his friend and feels that he is willing to do many things for him, that is why he wants to


    continue with the drug distribution investigation, because that way they will be able to show the girl that it


    was not intentional, besides that, in a way twisted, the best thing that could happen is that it was Gerard


    and no other.


    The two walk to the entrance and say goodbye, Gerard takes the opportunity to ask George if Darcy left


    the house.


    -Yes sir. If I may add… – Gerard nods and the man continues -. He was ranting against everyone,


    including Miss Luz.


    – She asked for it. By the way, about Luz… I want you to apany her to all the ces, in a couple of


    weeks I will go back to work and she will have things to do, so I don’t want to be left alone – she looks at


    the night sky and smiles at the thought in which I could invite Luz to walk in the garden –


    “She’s pregnant, George, and we have to take care of her, because we don’t know who the father of that


    baby is or if it will upset her.


    -Very well sir, I’ll talk to Evangeline so she can keep an eye on her, for now, is the surprise for Princess


    Charlize still standing? – Gerard smiles at the way they call his daughter and feels that at least the others


    did pay him that attention that he didn’t-


    -Yes, in fact… you know, we are going to advance it. Since Luz is better and with us, we are going to go


    on a trip tomorrow.


    -Muy bien se?or, haré todos los preparativos.


    -Gracias George… por todo.


    Para George, Gerard es solo un hombre joven que ha perdido mucho, pero que desde que chica llegó


    a casa, está recuperando todo aquello que dejo ir por el duelo.


    -Es un gusto, se?or… es bueno verlo feliz otra vez.


    Gerard entra a casa y subes escaleras para ir a vero van sus mujeres. Al entrar, escena lo


    deja petrificado de emoción.


    Luz se ha quedado dormida con el cuento en mano y rodeando a Charlize con el otro brazo, su


    peque?a tiene manito en el vientre de Luz y se le hace escena más tierna del mundo. .


    Se acerca a chica, cons ganas de deja dormir allí, pero está en una m posición y le preocupa


    que luego le du todo.


    -Luz… – le susurra para no despertar a Charlize -.


    –Mmm…


    -Luz, vamos a tu cuarto – chica abre un ojo y se da cuenta dónde está, se incorpora con cuidado de n


    a princesa y en cuanto ve libre, Gerard toma entre sus brazos -. Te iba a invitar a pasear por le


    jardín, pero creo que estás cansada, hoy fue muy ajetreado para ti.


    ZOS


    -Sí, eso creo – apoya su cabeza en el pecho del hombre y se deja llevar por Morfeo otra vez, entre esos


    brazos fuertes que le encantan -.


    Gerard acuesta en su cama, le quita los zapatos y tapa cons cobijas. Se queda observánd


    dormir unos minutos sin dejar de pensar en lo afortunado que es de tener oportunidad de conquistar a


    aque chica.


    Sale de allí para irse directo a su habitación, se cambia de ropa y se va al gimnasio, allí tratará de


    quemar energías y buscar el cansancio suficiente para poder dormir.

    Without stopping seeing those brown eyes that he loves.


    If only I could find that woman, to end this now, without having to reach heaven and then fall to hell.


    But fate is like that, cruel and miserable.


    He reviews again the day that will start in a few more hours, thinking that the surprise for his daughter


    will serve to start fulfilling his dreams and to get to know Luz better.


    Suddenly, he feels like eating chocte filled with truffles, so he leaves the exercise and goes to the


    kitchen where he hopes to find something simr, but there he finds Luz eating that chocte.


    Seeing him smiles embarrassed and extends the chocte.

    -Do you want some?


    Gerard would eat whatever she gave him.
