Early in the morning, La Villa Rouco.
Estrella Berrocal does not want to go back to wallowing after living a night of wallowing and being the teacher …
Adam Rouco is a total punk! I didn’t know he was a beast underneath all that decency!
Estrella Berrocal woke up when Adán Rouco had already gotten up, but the heat was still very intense under the sheets and she blushed …
As she lifted the sheets and climbed out of bed, her legs went limp and her neck flushed at the thought of last night’s image.
Damned Adán Rouco!
Estrella Berrocal washed up and ran downstairs to settle the score with Adán Rouco, only to see that Olivia Montes was already packing her bags to leave La familia Rouco.
I didn’t expect Olivia Montes to leave La familia Rouco so soon.
Felipa was preparing breakfast, Adán Rouco was nowhere to be seen, and Estrella Berrocal, seeing her packing alone, said: “Let me help you”.
But before her hand could touch her luggage, Olivia Montes pushed it away.
“No need to play nice!”
Estrella Berrocal frowned, she knew Olivia Montes had always hated her, but she didn’t expect Olivia Montes to be so angry so early in the day!
“What are you yelling at me for if you won’t let me help you say a word.”
She hadn’t been able to stand still, but if she hadn’t been pushed, she would have hit the table.
Olivia Montes threw down her things and looked at her coldly: “Estrella Berrocal, if you hadn’t whispered in front of Adán, would I have had to leave La familia Rouco now? Stop pretending with me! You know what I hate most about you? That you’re always pretending! You want to steal, but you play innocent, as if you don’t know anything, you think I’m Adam and you fool me! I tell you, I saw your true face a long time ago.”
Earlier in the morning, Estrella Berrocal was left speechless for a moment when she received a head sermon.
“I don’t want to argue with you.”
Adán Rouco, who had taken Paulita out to walk her dog, came in from the patio and saw through the floor-to-ceiling window that Estrella Berrocal had had a verbal argument with Olivia Montes.
Adán Rouco hands Paulita the leash: “Take it”.
Paulita nodded and told the rambunctious lion cub, “Don’t run, I’ll take you to your dog food.”
Paulita headed for the dog house in the courtyard while Adán Rouco strutted toward the house on his long legs.
As soon as the man reached Estrella Berrocal, he put his large arm around her waist out of habit and asked quietly, “What’s wrong with you?”
Estrella Berrocal said lazily: “Nothing, I’m going to have breakfast”.
She pushed Adán Rouco’s hand away and sat down in a chair to eat breakfast. Adán Rouco went to wash his hands and joined her at the table.
Olivia Montes packed her bags and dragged her suitcase straight out of the house without greeting them.
Estrella Berrocal bit into her toast and glanced a couple of times out of the corner of her eye, watching Olivia Montes walk away from the patio before speaking.
“Is she with dynamite at this time of the morning? I saw her packing her suitcase by herself and when I told her I would help her with it, she gave me a shove and lectured me.”
Adán Rouco looked at her in exasperation and smiled slightly to distract her, “I thought you were mad at me.”
Estrella Berrocal pouted and bit into her white toast, “Why would I be mad at you?”
“Angry at me for tiring you out last night.”
“… ahem!”
Estrella Berrocal took a sip of milk and almost choked.
Adán Rouco raised his hand and patted her on the back, and Estrella Berrocal’s face turned red and white.
Estrella Berrocal’s face turned red and white. She had expected to take revenge on him, but instead, … she had been molested.
Estrella Berrocal sulked and gorged herself on breakfast.
When Paulita returned from the patio, Felipa took her to wash her hands and the little girl came running to have breakfast.
“Dad, Star, it’s Saturday and I want to go to the zoo, okay?”.
Adán Rouco stroked the little girl’s head: “Yes”.
Estrella Berrocal, who was especially sleepy and drowsy and with much less energy with her recent pregnancy, did want to accompany Paulita to the zoo, but …
“Why don’t you take Paulita with you, I’m very sleepy lately.”
Especially now that it is spring, it is easier to have spring sleep.
Paulita picked up her spoon and ate her pumpkin porridge, “Star are you sure you don’t want to come with me and Daddy? The zoo is so much fun and we can go see the open peacocks.”
Adán Rouco thought it would be better if she didn’t go, so he told her, “Estrella is pregnant and the zoo is too crowded, so it would be bad if we squeezed the little one in her belly.”
“Well, for the little one’s safety, Star, you’ll have to stay home. You can go to the zoo with me and daddy later, after you’ve had your little darling.”
Estrella Berrocal looked at her sweet, loving daughter and smiled warmly, her heart softening like a sponge, “Yes, Mommy will go with you later.”
…
Sunlight streamed in through the windows of the Coast City apartment, spilling onto the floor.
On the fluffy bed, the girl’s thin, white arms were exposed outside the covers, with several pale pink hickeys.
Dulcina Calvo had slept long and deeply, her whole body was so sore and so full that she felt as if she had been hit by a truck.
A vague memory of Esteban Zaragosa stroking her cheeks a couple of times not long ago and asking her in a soft voice what she wanted for breakfast.
She grunted twice, hugged the sheets and mumbled something meaningless.
If it was specifically about having potato pancakes or pancakes, I couldn’t remember.
Well … damn Esteban Zaragosa … how long he had been destroying his last night …
Now he felt like wallowing and his limbs were falling off.
Dulcina Calvo snuggled under the soft sheets and propped her heavy eyelids open, blushing from flush to neck as she recalled the images of last night.
He foolishly surrendered to …
The sheets were covered with the strong hormonal smell of men and her little face burned even more.
She lay in bed for a while, trying to get up, only to discover that her pajamas had been thrown on the floor by him last night and she didn’t know where they had gone, she had only brought one pair of pajamas with her and the clothes she had worn outside yesterday had gotten wet and hadn’t been washed.
Shit, what was she going to wear now, she was naked under the sheets.
I was looking for something to wear when there was a noise at the door, the sound of the door opening.
It must have been Esteban Zaragosa, returning from his breakfast shopping.
He hurried to hide under the covers.
She had not yet thought about how to face him … It wasn’t right to meet him like this, it was too humiliating.
Dulcina Calvo hid under the covers and listened to the commotion.
Suddenly, footsteps were heard in the hall, coming this way.
Dulcina Calvo immediately closes her eyes and pretends to sleep.
But the next thing that came was a pleasant young female voice….
“Esteban! Are you home? Are you home? Are you still asleep at this time of night? Since when did you become a bed-wetter?”.
Dulcina Calvo, under the sheets, stiffened violently and her face paled instantly.
The woman’s footsteps came closer and closer until … the woman pushed open the bedroom door and frowned slightly at the sight of the small lumpy mass under the sheets.
“Esteban?”
The woman approached the bed and, with a wave of her hand, lifted the blankets!
Dulcina Calvo: …
“Ah-!”
Dulcina Calvo, still terrified, screamed.
Esteban Zaragosa, who had just arrived home with his breakfast, heard the scream, put down the breakfast he had in his hand and hurried over.
“What’s going on?”
Esteban Zaragosa immediately saw Dulcina, naked and cowering on the bed, with a pale face and a dark look on her face, he quickly approached her, covered her with the blankets and wrapped her up.
