Micaela suddenly reacted and asked her:
-Are you afraid that Alba will fall in love with you and forget about you, so you deliberately distance yourself from her these days?
Seeing Ernesto nodding his head, Micaela breathed a deep sigh of relief.
-Don’t worry, Ernesto. She won’t forget you, because true love doesn’t forget!
Carlos was full of questions, but he didn’t ask them and listened in silence.
Ernesto smiled bitterly.
So she was his true love?
-She even almost forgot her brother, you know?
What?
Micaela was surprised.
Ernesto continued:
-He forgot everyone who came into his heart and only remembers you.
Micaela was even more surprised.
The waiter brought their drinks, closed the door and left.
Ernesto repeated slowly and in detail what Mateo had said to the two of them.
The more Micaela listened, the sadder she became. It turned out that Alba’s brother loved her so much and knew her better than she knew herself, so he treated her with indifference so that she would not forget this one member of the family. Micaela felt sorry for Alba’s strange psychological disorder, and at the same time, she was very moved, because she always remembered her….
Ernesto’s voice became more and more bitter.
-Alba will definitely forget me. Surely you remember that time I went to Brillantella to look for her and you saw me standing so far away, but she didn’t, that was a sign.
Micaela refuted in agitation:
-Maybe she really didn’t see you!
Ernesto shook his head.
-The other night I saw with my own eyes the strangeness in her eyes when she saw me, and she was slow to react.
Seeing Ernesto speak so confidently, she suddenly became disturbed, took out her phone and sent a message to Katarina:
-Katarina, tell me the truth, the person you met abroad who has the same face blindness as Alba, what happened to her at the end?
This time, Katarina quickly answered:
-She forgot all the people she loved the most, and remembered only non-intimate acquaintances. She completely forgot her husband, her children and her friends.
Micaela looked at the message and covered her mouth.
Katarina sent another message:
-I didn’t want to tell you, just because I didn’t want to scare you. Maybe everyone’s situation is different, maybe Alba’s illness is not so serious.
If it had been before, Micaela would have believed that Alba’s situation would not be so serious.
But now, Mateo said that Alba would forget the people she loved, and Ernesto too….
Ernesto looked at Carlos helplessly and asked:
-Carlos, what should I do? It is painful for me to deliberately distance myself from her, but it is better than being forgotten by her?
Micaela’s eyes filled with tears as she heard his words. Two people who loved each other very much couldn’t be together….
Carlos took out a piece of paper to wipe Micaela’s tears and said calmly:
-Don’t torture yourselves, take her to the doctor, there is always a cure if it is an illness.
-What if she can’t be cured? What if she ends up forgetting me?
That was Ernesto’s greatest fear.
Carlos looked at him.
-Then you keep pursuing her impudently. If she forgets you all her life, you’ll chase her all her life.
I could get love again.
Ernesto’s eyes sparkled.
Carlos directly stated the difficulties in advance.
-It’s a very grinding process, you get used to the love in her eyes for you and suddenly one day there is nothing but detachment and coldness in her eyes for you and you ache.
Carlos looked at Micaela beside him as he said this from experience.
Ernesto’s heart ached when he thought of the look in Alba’s eyes that night.
-If you can insist on pursuing her, you will have the second courtship, the third, and in the day when you can’t stand the cycle like this, you will have no relationship, Alba will be a new Alba and she won’t be sad, because she won’t remember you, but you will lose a lot of time.
Micaela looked at Carlos in surprise, what did he want to express, did he want Ernesto to abandon Alba?
Carlos continued:
-Mateo spoke to you in such a clear and understandable way, didn’t you understand his intentions?
Ernesto was a little confused?
Carlos shook his head, Ernesto’s IQ was really lowered by love.
-Unless you can be the person like Micaela whom Alba can’t forget. On the contrary, be prepared to be forgotten by her. She is the one who will be hurt if you move away from her and stop loving her, but she won’t be sad when she falls in love with you and forgets you. Do you understand what I mean?
Micaela was a little confused?
Ernesto understood.
He couldn’t hurt her if the time he could be involved in her love was short.
That was Mateo’s ultimate goal.
Even if Ernesto could only love Alba for one day, he would have to give her all his love.
Ernesto understood in an instant, grabbed his phone and ran out the door.
Carlos stood up with Micaela in his arms and said quietly:
-We’re back too.
Micaela felt really sorry for Alba and at that moment, she received a message from Alba:
-Micaela, she is still not back…..
Micaela replied:
-She will be back soon.
Carlos was ready to leave hugging Micaela, but she turned around and threw herself into his arms.
-Carlos, I love you.
Carlos smiled, hugged her tightly and caressed her head with one hand.
-Honey, has the love between Ernesto and Alba shaken you?
Micaela nodded her head in his arms.
-Carlos, it turns out I’m very lucky. I used to think I was pretty miserable, especially when I fell into Adriana’s trap and was taken to the hotel for the second time, I felt my life was miserable, why couldn’t I die with my mom and dad…?
Carlos kissed Micaela interrupting her.
Micaela slowly closed her eyes and silently felt his soft kiss.
After a long while, Carlos let her go, and looked at her with eyes as deep as the infinite sea.
-Honey, don’t say those unfortunate words anymore, okay?
Micaela blushed and nodded her head.
She wouldn’t ask Carlos what he would do if he had the same mental disorder as Alba.
Because Carlos had shown her, with all his actions, how much he loved her and that he would never leave her.
She was lucky that even though the god had taken her parents from her too soon, he had given her Carlos who was unique in the world and Alba who had forgotten everyone, but had never forgotten her.
She leaned back in her seat, looked earnestly at one side of Carlos’ lovely face, and was very happy.
Carlos looked at her and said:
-Micaela, if you keep looking at me like that, we won’t come back tonight.
Micaela could not help but show a cheerful smile.
-No, I want to look at you, I don’t get tired of looking at you all day long.
A rare moment of dominance!
Carlos reached out his hand and Micaela put her hand in his obediently. He looked straight ahead and brought her hand to his lips for a kiss.
-You will do as you say, and from now until the same time tomorrow night, you can only look at me.
Micaela instantly felt that he had teased her again…
