Micaela and Alba looked at the deep-faced Leonardo, both with mixed emotions, this time, too hasty, for the two who love each other, how is that enough consolation for these half a year of mutual longing….
Leonardo looked at Olivia, with a frown, and spoke.
-I’m going to Paris with you…
Olivia ducked her head.
-No…
She saw Leonardo answer the phone during our morning meal together, there was something at work he had to take care of, and she just saw him answer the phone again, how busy he was, Olivia knew another trip to F on the fly would take more time….
And, although one more day, one more month, one more year, when the time of separation comes, it will be very sad, maybe a little less time together, each can also adapt to the former life a little faster….
Leonardo’s brow furrowed even more as he stared at the girl who shrugged her shoulders. He had planned a candlelit dinner for the evening, he had planned to take her to the most beautiful illuminated park in Deboma Nation, and he had planned a romantic sea of roses, and he hadn’t been able to pull any of them off in time?
I actually wanted to ask her soon when she was leaving, but I was afraid to do so, I hated to part ways and just wanted to stay in the present with her, assuming the soonest I could do so would be tomorrow….
I wasn’t expecting it, so I jumped the gun….
Besides, he came to Deboma Nation for Micaela, not for himself….
Leonardo suppressed the bitterness in his heart, he did not know that he would also have such a humble day, obviously, he wants to be angry, angry that she spent a day, a night with him refused, but in the end, I still do not want to be angry with her, the meeting time is so short, can not be wasted in anger ….
He put aside the overwhelming emotions and walked over to her to rub her head.
-Okay, I’ll drive you to the airport later.
Micaela and Alba are not the only ones in shock, but Carlos and Ernesto?
Leonardo, in fact, has matured and no longer stubbornly insists on not letting her go, but respects Olivia’s decision….
Olivia looked up, surprised and couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed…
Leonardo looked at her and said slowly.
-And I don’t want to make it difficult for you, you have to work for your dreams, for our future, and all I can do for you is not to be an obstacle.
Olivia reddened instantly and threw herself tightly into his arms….
Micaela and Alba are extraordinarily moved….
Carlos approached, circled the girl’s shoulders and asked her in a low voice.
-I’ll go back first, why don’t you stay here?
Tomas returned to Salamentro, after having been away for half a month, he had many things to resume in the company and the three days here were just to wait for the finals, to come back now and come back in three days….
Micaela looked at him startled.
-Can’t I come back with you?
I wanted to be with him, even if he stayed at home when he came back, or went to Brillantella to train, but I could meet in the evening and see him?
Carlos’s heart shrank, and his thin lips quirked into a slight smile.
-Of course you can.
That’s the kind of reaction you want from a girl…..
Leonardo and Olivia’s hearts are in a tug-of-war as they are separated for three days…..
Ernesto also reached out and took his girlfriend by his side and looked at Leonardo.
-Leonardo, do you want to come back to Teladia with us? Carlos’ helicopter will be here soon.
Olivia snorted and tensed suddenly, looking at Leonardo, when she heard him grumble.
-No, you guys go ahead.
Then he looks at Olivia.
-Even if it’s just for a minute, I’ll stay with you.
Alba is extraordinarily touched that the man she once thought was going to be the end of the whole show is now a complete warmonger….
The group leaves the restaurant together and returns to their respective hotels to pack up their belongings.
The three girls hugged each other for a long time before parting and saying goodbye.
Watching them get into the car and slowly drive away, Olivia’s heart shrank.
Leonardo drove her back to the hotel.
Olivia unconsciously tried to go to her room, only half-remembering that her bags were in Leonardo’s room.
She asked him curiously.
-How did you get my room card?
Leonardo looked at the word floor that appeared on the elevator before looking at her.
-I went back to the bar last night and retrieved your purse, the room card was inside.
Olivia noticed when the elevator doors opened and Leonardo took her by the hand and headed to her room.
The separation is imminent, he doesn’t know what to say or what to do, ask her for her new phone number, she surely won’t give it to him, if she wanted to give it to him, she would have contacted herself long ago….
He himself feared that, with her contact information, he would go on to call her, send her videos, bother her and influence her….
Opening the door, he led her into the inner bedroom and said in a somewhat stiff tone.
-Look again to see if you left anything in the room earlier.
When he entered her room, though, all he saw was a backpack….
Olivia nodded and looked down at the hand he was holding tightly.
Leonardo also looked down at the small hand he held, white and so delicate in his palm… for a long time, and slowly let go….
The moment his hand withdrew, the empty palm of his hand resembled his now empty heart….
In the air, it was as if there was an air of strong support that did not allow the sadness of parting to overcome him. Olivia’s hands and feet were a little unsteady overall, shaking slightly, and after a cursory check, she didn’t really have anything, she had only planned to come for a day and didn’t bring unnecessary things. The clothes she had changed into the night before she couldn’t find them, and was about to ask when Leonardo said.
-The clothes were sent to the dry cleaners and are at the front desk.
They were not at the hotel when the dry cleaner delivered it to him and explained over the phone to leave it at the front desk.
He stands a few steps away from Olivia and watches her move, wishing he could freeze time there….
Olivia nods and stands up.
-Then there’s nothing else….
Leonardo took a step forward and hugged her, Olivia immediately wrapped her arms around his waist, her little face pressed against his chest, smelling his familiar scent, happy and sad at the same time….
Leonardo grabs her chin, ducks his head and is about to touch her lips when a pleasant ringing sounds….
It’s Olivia’s phone.
Leonardo’s movements stopped and then straightened up.
Olivia’s heart raced at the loss and she looked down and pulled her phone out of her pocket, it was Daniel.
She grabbed it right away.
-Olivia, it’s time to get ready for your flight, isn’t it? Tomorrow’s lesson is crucial, you must not drop the ball!.
Daniel was worried that Olivia would join her friends and not want to come back, so he called her to give her a reminder.
Olivia’s heart stopped, sadness intensified, and she looked at Leonardo.
His hands were on her shoulders and his deep eyes were looking at her seriously….
Why didn’t you say you would let me stay?
Will you stay for me?
Two people with a hundred turns inside, waiting for the other to say it first, but both silent….
Halfway through, Olivia said into the phone.
-Well, I know.
