Micaela blushed with embarrassment instantly, bit her lip and turned her head away….
With a smile on his lips, Carlos wiped her feet and led her straight to sit on the bed, giving her a kiss on the lips and murmuring .
-Girl, I’m naturally responsible for this life of yours, and the next, and the next, and the next, and I’m hired to do it all. In the dim candlelight, Charles’ gentle and discreet promise made the woman’s heart beat faster again, the fresh and lovely familiar scent was near, and she was about to close her eyes in a trance when a voice in her stomach interrupted the lovely atmosphere…..
Women are so embarrassed they want to find a hole in the ground….
Carlos lost his smile and rubbed his head.
-Dinner will be served soon. Instantly, Micaela looked at the rice cooker again with an expectant face. She had long since smelled the aroma of chicken and rice stronger in the air and the light in the pot jumped from red to yellow, so it appeared to be cooked.
Carlos turned to pour water first, still going out the window, and soon returned, closing the window and moving closer, turning on the electric rice cooker, which immediately gave off its aroma.
The bed is right next to the table, the woman approaches and waits with bated breath for the food…..
Seeing her craving, Carlos’ heart swelled with joy, suddenly appreciating even more why Nilson was so happy to keep her trapped in the mountains and cook for her three meals a day….
After serving the rice, he placed the chicken thigh on top and set it in front of her, handing her the chopsticks and explaining:
-Be careful of the heat. before grabbing a stool and sitting down.
Micaela sat cross-legged on the bed, picked up the chicken thigh, blew on it and took a bite, and was immediately amazed by the tenderness of the meat, very flavorful, with the characteristic sweetness of chicken al paso, and couldn’t wait for the next bite:
-Carlos, this is the best chicken I have ever eaten. Carlos immediately put another chicken thigh in his bowl.
-Then eat more. Micaela hurried to try to stick it in.
-You eat too much…
Carlos put an end to it.
-I’m still pretty full.
Micaela’s movements stalled, not reacting for a moment….
The man’s mouth lifted in a charming arch, his eyes deep, his eyes grazing her breast as if nothing was wrong, reaching out to gently wipe the grease stains from the corner of her mouth, his voice muffled for a few moments.
-I’ll probably have to ‘snack’ in the evening and save some for my stomach. The woman then reacted and almost buried her face in the bowl to hide….
Preferably, she can’t fight back….
The women had to turn her shame and anger into appetite and concentrate on eating.
She was very hungry and, besides, the chicken and rice smelled great….
They both had dinner by candlelight in a simple hut, in a harmonious and beautiful atmosphere….
Carlos chose the best meat for her despite her protests and watched her eat, feeding her to her heart’s content and yelling at her that she really couldn’t eat any more before eating the rest of the rice and chicken, then he picked up the dishes and went out the window to wash the dishes, returning to change his slippers that the ranger had left under the bed, taking out the towel and washing himself with the cold water directly outside, closing the window and getting ready for bed.
The woman had already made herself comfortable and lay down on the inside of the bed, leaving most of the space to herself.
The single, small bed was more than enough for Carlos and Micaela, who had always slept close together.
Carlos blew out the candle and the woman immediately threw herself into his arms.
Although it was only the beginning of winter, at night it was already quite cold in the mountains, and outside the house the wind was blowing, the leaves rustled, and from time to time the chirping of strange birds could be heard…. If she had been alone, Micaela would have shivered with fear, but in Carlos’ arms she felt warm and safe….
-Carlos, now it feels like we’re going on a hike and camping in nature. Carlos’ chin brushed the top of her head and he smiled slightly.
-Well, it’s pretty much the same. Micaela recalls the fond memories of that time, then she thinks of her son and sadness wells up in her heart….
-Carlos, I miss Mike so much, I wonder if he’s crying right now….
At the end of the sentence, my nose and my heart ached…
Carlos, on the other hand, gets a punch from heaven:
-Micaela, I’m so jealous of him.
Huh?
Micaela tilts her head to look at him, although she can’t see anything…
-Jealous of the attention he gets from you when he cries, and jealous of Anlandana your group of friends you talk to for so long every night? Now, you are all mine. Carlos’ tone was so calm, but Micaela’s heart was breaking….
After a pause, with his chin resting on the woman’s forehead, he added
-Since we met in Salamonsa until now, the days when we can be the two of us alone embracing in silence like now are too few and far between….
Micaela’s heart aches and her small hands hold it tightly…..
Yes, when he first arrived in Salamonsa, he had no memories of the past, he was jealous of himself for a long time, then Nilson took her away, it was not easy for Carlos to recover his memory, Mike was born, he was on honeymoon, he had the mission to reactivate the economy of Echave City, but he was also trying to free his time to take care of her and Mike….
Micaela clung to his arms, unsure how to cope with her mixed emotions, her voice muffled and tinged with sobs.
-Carlos, I’m sorry…
Even though she feels she really loves him, she still doesn’t think she loves him enough….
Carlos hugged her tightly and kissed her forehead.
-Darling, change the word for another, I would love to hear it….
With a single force, Micaela pounced on him and plunged into his arms, dropping a kiss on his chin.
-Carlos, I love you, I love you, but the words ‘I love you’ have long since failed to explain my love for you, and if time could be arranged, I would let it be arranged right now, in this little cabin with you, on this little side of the world, just with each other.
Carlos was instantly satisfied, his big hands wrapped around the person in his arms….
Though impossible, why wouldn’t it be?
I can’t wait to be with the person I hold in my arms every minute of every day….
The woman’s kisses fell with all passion and Carlos was soon unable to bear the revolt, the temperature in the cabin rose and for a long time the man’s suppressed, muffled voice came from the darkness.
-Be a good girl and go to sleep…..
The woman’s voice was a mosquito whisper:
-Carlos, it’s okay…
She knew that he had reached the limit of his patience….
The man’s tone was extraordinarily firm:
-No, I googled it and you need to be 42 days postpartum to get a checkup and it’s only 29 days…..
A large hand rubbed her head and wrapped her tightly in the blanket.
-Micaela, I don’t want to put you at the slightest risk, and I can take it a little longer. Micaela is moved beyond words…..
Carlos whispered in her ear and coaxed her:
-Go to sleep, tomorrow we can go home, eh?
Well, definitely home, tomorrow is Mike’s full moon day…..
Carlos’ scent soothed her incredibly, and the fact that she had eaten and drunk enough, as well as the fact that she had just soaked her feet, gradually relaxed her tense nerves and spirit, and she responded groggily and slowly fell asleep…
