At the end of her shift, Allyce went to see Senona at the hospital.
Senona was very positive and cooperative with the doctors and was recovering well.
When Allyce went there, she was standing on the balcony with a glass of water, looking serious, her eyes gazing thoughtfully at the tall buildings outside.
Even when Allyce walked in, she didn’t notice.
“Knock, knock.
Allyce reached out and clicked the door shut.
Only then did Senona respond and look back at Allyce.
“Is that you?” Senona’s expression was one of surprise.
Allyce gave a soft “hmm” and placed the flowers she had brought in a vase on the bed.
Senona approached with light steps, put her glass of water aside and said, “Just got off work?
“Well, have you eaten yet?” asked Allyce without looking back as she concentrated on the flowers.
Senona replied: “Not yet”.
“Then let’s have dinner together.
As soon as the words were out of her mouth, Allyce and Senona froze at the same time.
Once Allyce had placed the flowers, she straightened up and before she could say anything, Senona stepped in front of her and said, “I’ll wait for you then”.
He glanced at Senona.
Senona was leaning on the table, looking calm.
Allyce had to go out to get her food and finish it before she was ready to leave.
Before leaving, she asked Senona, as if something had occurred to her: “Didn’t the Delahoz family send anyone?
“Someone came. Senona ruffled his hair on his forehead and said: “You go back first, it’s late.
Allyce looked at Senona’s reluctance to say more and turned to leave without further questions.
He had just left the hospital when he saw Casimiro and Eric getting out of a car.
Instinctively, Allyce stood beside them in the backlit shadows.
It had been a long time since I had seen Casimiro and Eric, who was still dressed in the same designer clothes as before, looking like a man from a rich family.
Casimiro, on the other hand, had lost a lot of weight and his face looked older.
After getting out of the car, Eric said something to Casimiro before they both entered the hospital.
Were Casimiro and Eric going to visit Senona?
Would you be so kind?
Allyce didn’t believe it anyway.
Neither Casimiro nor Eric saw Allyce and walked past her and into the hospital.
Allyce stood for a moment, but decided to follow them.
He knew Senona’s room well and made his way to the door of Senona’s room without incident.
Probably because they had entered in such a hurry, the door had not closed properly and there was a gaping hole.
“If there’s nothing else, you can go back, I’m going to rest”. It was Senona’s voice, obviously in a bad mood and a bit cold.
Immediately afterwards, Eric’s persuasive voice was heard: “Senona, daddy is thinking about you, the Aybar part of the family, your grandfather has taken care of it for you, when you and Enzo get divorced, you can abort this child again, and go out with Zenon Alaniz, you don’t have to worry about the rest of your life …”.
Allyce frowned slightly.
It was definitely time for Senona and Enzo to divorce.
But who was Zenon Alaniz?
The new man the Delahoz family had found for Senona?
“No way, I’m not getting rid of this baby, dad, if I do, I may never be able to be a mother in my life, so I must have this baby.” Senona’s voice was firm as ever.
Casimir, who had remained silent, finally spoke up, “You can’t do that! You think you’re still the same Missy Delahoz of the family you used to be? Who else admires you but Zeno? Now that medicine is so advanced, I don’t believe you really can’t have a baby without it, no more nonsense.
Senona made no sound.
Immediately afterwards, Eric added: “We do it for your own good …”.
Hearing this, Allyce didn’t bother to listen any further.
I knew that the people of the Delahoz family were heartless and only knew how to be selfish and self-serving.
As for Senona, it was up to her to decide which path she wanted to take and where she wanted to go.
Whether she gives birth to her child or aborts it and marries this “Zenon” is none of her business.
…
Allyce left quietly and took a taxi home.
He went to the shop opposite the neighbourhood and bought milk and bread.
What a coincidence that the lift was out of order.
He had to climb the seventh floor with the milk carton.
By the time he reached the seventh-floor corridor, he was panting with fatigue and his hands ached slightly.
“Ba!”
A voice rang out ahead.
Allyce looked up unconsciously and saw Severo standing in the doorway of his flat, fiddling with a lighter in his hand.
What was he doing here?
Allyce almost thought she had made a mistake.
Before she felt tired and hot, but now she felt nothing at all, she approached with the milk in her hand, “Do you need anything?”
The word “Do you need anything?” seemed to be Severo’s most frequent.
Simple and powerful, preventive.
Severo stared at her for a few seconds before reaching out and taking the carton of milk from her hand.
Then, in a light voice, he said, “Open the door”.
Allyce got a little nervous and tried several times with the key, but could not get the door open.
Severo seemed to have lost his nerve and he reached out his large hand and placed it over hers, turned the key and with a click, the door opened.
Allyce felt a little embarrassed.
I didn’t know why I was so nervous that I couldn’t open the door.
He pushed the door with his head down and, while she was looking for the key, Severo had fumbled for the light switch, turned it on and walked straight in.
Allyce looked at his back and spat out one word: “Shoes”.
Severo left the food on the table and looked back at him, unperturbed.
Allyce closed the door with a loud bang.
“What’s up, go ahead.” It felt good to have a head start.
Severo looked around until Allyce got tired of waiting before he said, “Which shop did you buy my tie clip from?
There were several shops of that brand of tie pins.
Allyce smiled and her face cooled for a moment.
Had he come to her only to ask where he had bought the tie clip?
“I have forgotten.
Allyce blurted out those words coldly and rushed over, unpacking the milk carton and angrily shoving a bottle into the fridge.
Severo watched her out of the corner of his eye, took his new bread in his hand and, with the advantage of his height, standing behind her, he put it in.
“I’ll do it myself.” Allyce slapped his hand away with a violent slap.
Severo asked again: “Where did you get the tie pin, you lost the one you bought me and I want to buy a new one”.
Allyce was even more enraged to hear that.
“If you lose it, go and buy another one, it’s no big deal.
