Chapter 1
- Fernanda
- Today is not my day, honestly not really! First my job sucked. I'm about to resign and it's not long. Everything going wrong I think I shouldn't have left the house today.
- Now I'm here in front of my husband's office, calling him so we can have lunch together and he doesn't answer.
- "Damn it, Otávio, do you answer that fucking phone?" - I grumble already getting possessed with him.
- I call his cell again and nothing. What was he doing that he couldn't take a fucking call, after all I was his wife.
- I get really pissed off at him and I put my cell phone in my bag and look at my watch and amazed at Otávio's delay and he was never one to be late.
- I hear the cell phone ring and before I even pick it up I smile and when I pick it up I give a sigh of frustration to see that it was not my husband but one of my daughters and not that I get along with them I just thought it was he.
- "Hi Kathy, what's up?" – I ask.
- — Mom, I can take your car out. — Ask my daughter.
- "Kathy, I haven't even gotten home yet!" - I answer still frustrated.
- — Mom, is dad there, close? – She asks me curiously.
- “No, Kathy! I sigh and continue, “Where's Kam?
- "Oh, she's in the room!" — She answers me and stays silent is when I hear my other daughter's voice and I'm about to ask what's going on, when she continues: — Mom and Kam, she's here next to me saying that she tried to talk to Dad and that he didn't answer.
- "Did she try to call him too?" – I ask apprehensively.
- - Yes mom! She just told me I didn't even know. Kathy says and I hear Kam saying she wanted to talk to me.
- - Hi Mom! - Kam says worriedly.
- — Hi daughter, did your sister say that you are not able to talk to your father today either? — I ask curiously, trying to know why Otávio wasn't attending to anyone today.
- - I was not able to! I was supposed to ask him if he could lend me some money so we could go to the mall. — She talks to me and keeps saying, — And I was worried when he didn't answer. — Kam is silent and then continues saying: — Mom, why didn't Dad answer my call?
- — Daughter, I don't know, since this is the first time this has happened! I take a long breath and keep saying, "He's not even listening to me."
- “And now, I'm worried, or rather, we're worried. - Kam speaks.
- - You and your sister calm down and don't worry I'm here in front of your father's office and as soon as I find out what happened I'll call you, ok!
- "Okay, Mom, send him a kiss!" - She asks me.
- - You can leave and you and your sister behave, huh. “I wish I knew what two teenage girls could drive me almost crazy, let me tell you.
- “Okay, Kathy and I are not going to fight! “She jokes and I know she doesn't.
- I say goodbye to them laughing and hang up. My daughters are what I love most in this world. Thank God we are well connected. The twins took almost nothing from me, but from their father.
- Ah Otávio was my love as a teenager, with him I lost my virginity and soon we decided to get married and that was wonderful. Our families knew each other and were so happy that we got married and soon I got pregnant, so my marriage was perfect.
- I decide to get out of the car and enter the accounting office, greeting everyone I see. I hadn't been here for a long time. I take the elevator and go up to the floor of Otávio's office.
- When I get there I find the hallway empty and I think it's strange and I look again at the clock and realize that must be everyone should be having lunch.
- And I hear moans and I get curious and I go towards where the sounds were coming from and I come face to face with a leaning door and I push it I end up getting the biggest shock of my life.
- And then a thought occurs to me and he was saying "Do you believe the story of happily ever after?".
- Because the scene I'm witnessing there ended up making me so proud to say that I lived a fairy tale.
- And here I am! At the office door understanding why my motherfucker husband couldn't be taking any calls he was too busy fucking his new secretary. Because the old one had retired and I should have imagined something like this would happen when he kept praising her, a lot.
- The shock I got was so great that I practically froze that when I woke up from the shock I ended up dropping my bag on the floor and the noise made.
- That's when he sees me standing there and quickly takes the woman off him and I stand there watching him zip up her pants and I just say:
- “Oh, now I understand, why you couldn't answer your family's calls. Were you too busy with the piranha here? - I say pointing to her who was fixing her clothes.
- "Love isn't that what you're thinking?" He says quickly.
- - Are you sure? — I make fun of him and look at the tramp and say ironically: — I hope you had fun!
- — Madam Fernanda, that's not what you're thinking! “She repeats the same thing my husband said, or rather my ex. Because I can definitely say that I am a separate woman.
- "I just need to know one thing!" Ah how long have you been cheating on me Otávio? — I say even too calm I think.
- "It was the first time and the last time!" He says as if that would make a difference.
- - I do not believe you! — And it was the truth, the trust I had in him had just died at that moment.
- — My love is the purest truth, you have to trust me! - He says all fervent.
- — Otávio, please don't call me love! — I practically scream and look at his lover and say: — I would like to be alone with my ex-husband! - I say looking at him who looks at me shocked.
- "I am your husband!" - He says practically screaming and came fast wanting to touch me and I just let go of his disgusting hands.
- "Get your hands off me!" — I ask almost screaming.
- — Listen to me, I love you! - He asks.
- "No, you don't!" If you love me like you said, you wouldn't have betrayed me! — I answer.
- "We've been married for nearly twenty years, it happened!" “He defends himself like it's normal.
- “You yourself just said that we've been married for almost twenty years and from now on we're not. — I answer.
- - What are you trying to say? He says in a panicked voice.
- "For God's sake, you understood what I said!" “I wanted to slap him.”
- - No! You don't understand Fe I need you! He says desperately.
- “Didn't need me until five minutes ago when I was over there fucking in your chair with your whore. - I say shrugging my shoulders.
- “I told you it was just a slipup. - He goes back to defending and I look up asking for patience I didn't have anymore.
- — As I said before and I say it again, I want a divorce! — Otávio looks at me like I'm crazy.
- - No, no! I don't want to divorce you! he protests and places his disgusting hands on me and grips my arms tightly.
- — You have nothing to want, Otávio. — I say firmly and continue to say: — Let go of me, Otávio, you're hurting me!
- "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you!" - He tells me taking his hands off me.
- — Otávio, I want a divorce! — I ask again with patience running out.
