Estrella Berrocal looked at Perla Prats’ somewhat nervous expression and said with a slight smile, “Of course I can forgive you, you were my best friend and you helped me in so many difficult situations in my life, Perla Prats, I thank you so much for what you did for me in the past, maybe without your help, Adam and I Rouco and I would not have been able to be together without you. It’s amazing how destiny works, and without an intermediary, we might not have gotten together.
Perla Prats looked at her and envy grew in her eyes: “Estrella, I envy you very much, I know that you and my brother-in-law are in love, sometimes I wonder if I was not lucky enough to meet the right person, or if it is true what Jonathan Tasis said, that because I did not take my feelings seriously, now they make fun of me. Now they make fun of me for my feelings and that’s karma.”
Estrella Berrocal took her hand and reassured her: “No, Perla Prats, you will find your love, what happens is that maybe it’s not the time, sooner or later, it will come if you are willing to wait”.
“So … do you also think Jonathan Tasis is not the person I should love?”
Estrella Berrocal inhaled slightly, “Do you want to hear the truth or not?”.
“Of course it’s true.”
Estrella Berrocal frowned slightly and said sincerely, “From the beginning, when you were with Jonathan Tasis, I felt that you were incompatible, I can’t say why, but maybe it was my intuition as an observer. Perla Prats, you cannot enter his heart, you are with him, it’s not the right time, it’s not the right situation, it’s not the right person, in this case he will not be attracted to you.”
Perla Prats’ eyes were slightly reddened and her voice a little cracked, “But … but Estrella, this time, it really seems like I have fallen into his hands, he obviously did nothing for me, but I can’t let him go, this time is different from all the relationships I’ve had before This is different from all the relationships I’ve had before. When I broke up with him, I thought I would be upset for a while and that I would be less upset when I went on a trip, but after all this time, I can’t stop asking about him, even when he is with Analena Lozada. ”
“Perla Prats, I can understand you, but…”
“Would you think I’m a bitch, or even a psychopath? But love is so unreasonable. I didn’t want to fall in love with him either, and I knew that to Jonathan Tasis I might even be like a bystander. But I can’t help but follow him.”
Estrella Berrocal approached her and embraced her only silently, reaching out to caress her slightly trembling back.
It’s times like this when a hug from a friend works better than advice.
“Everything is going to be all right Perla Prats, I’m sure you’re going to find a better man who will love you, love you and pay attention to you.”
Soon after, Adán Rouco returned: “Everything is done, and later doctors and nurses will come to move Jonathan Tasis to a ward”.
Perla Prats spoke lightly: “Thank you brother-in-law”.
“What do you thank me for, although I don’t want to lecture you, but you have a good relationship with Jonathan Tasis, you get along well. He may be in the hospital for more than a week, are you going to be here with him during that week?”
Estrella Berrocal reached out privately and tugged on Adán Rouco’s sleeve, telling him to stop hitting Perla Prats, but naturally a man like Adán Rouco is different from a sensual woman like Estrella Berrocal, which after all are two different species in their own right.
“I …”
“It’s fine for you to stay here and deal with it, but think about what quality – Jonathan Tasis’ ex-girlfriend? A friend? Or his alternative girlfriend?”
Estrella Berrocal saw Perla Prats’ face turn white and reached out to pinch Adán Rouco as he was about to say the word “spare tire”.
This man will not be comforted.
Perla Prats broke down a bit emotionally and opened her mouth slightly to say, “I … will think about it.”
“Jonathan Tasis as there is nothing wrong, your brother-in-law and I will go back first, so drive home by yourself and be careful.”
Perla Prats: “Good”.
Estrella Berrocal: “…”
Coward? What a brother-in-law, what a horror.
Adán Rouco had just left the hospital with his arm around Estrella Berrocal, who was staring at him.
The man gave her a dejected look, “What are you staring at your man for, you have to wait until you get home if you want to eat your man.”
Estrella Berrocal drowns in “…”
“You were very mean to Perla Prats earlier and your words were very hurtful, what do you mean by Perla Prats being Jonathan Tasis’ supporter?”
“If I don’t say so, will that girl be able to separate fast enough? Her feelings for Jonathan Tasis will get very sick if she drags it out any longer.”
Estrella Berrocal looked at him amused, “Didn’t you tell me before that if you passed Perla Prats a handsome man, she would immediately forget about Jonathan Tasis? The president’s judgment is wrong, Perla Prats is more affectionate than you think”.
Adán Rouco did not reply, but asked rhetorically, “Señora Estrella, do you know what are the two most terrible feelings in a relationship?”
“Which two are they?” Estrella Berrocal was a little curious.
“Bad man, bad woman.”
Estrella Berrocal: “…”
As Estrella Berrocal climbed into the car, she reflected on the words Adán Rouco had just said while buckling his seat belt and blurted out, “What kind of person calls his niece a bad woman?”
Adán Rouco said as he started the car, “So many relationships, none of them genuine, all jumping through hoops, and that’s not bad?”
Estrella Berrocal approached him, looked at his handsome face with a smile on her hand and asked, “How many relationships do you know Perla Prats has had?”
Adán Rouco raised an eyebrow, “I don’t suppose your relationship history can be described in a few paragraphs? A few dozen paragraphs of …?”
Estrella Berrocal blinked with teary eyes and looked at him even more mischievously, “So…. Mr. Adam, how many relationships have you been in?”
How can a question like this be wrong … Adán Rouco.
“What level of development are you referring to? If it’s to the point of sleeping together, you’re the only one I’ve talked to.”
Estrella Berrocal frowned: “Adán Rouco you are too clever. So, what you’re saying is that holding hands, kissing, nothing else counts as a relationship as long as you don’t reach the last step?”.
“For holding my hand, with Vanesa Bartolomé, and for kissing me, with Clementina Orihuela, with my body, when Jerold Rouco appeared. ”
Estrella Berrocal curved her lips into a smile, a broad smile, but a somber tone, “Good, very good, a clean skim.”
Spyker drove a long way, and after a long while Estrella Berrocal was leaning against the passenger side, almost asleep, when she heard the man driving speak lightly and earnestly, “There is only one who loves with all his heart, and there is only one who enters my heart.”
Estrella Berrocal’s drowsiness, immediately chased away, was especially eager to hear Adán Rouco sweet-talking her, “Who is that man?”
“That man, who now sleeps in my arms every night.”
