Episode 2

Years ago:

"You don't know how much I love you, you are the most important person in my life."

The man said as he rested his head on the girl's shoulder, as they sat in the shade of a tree on the vast university campus.

"You know I love you too, my dear. You are the most wonderful man I have ever known, aside from my father."

"And above all, I am sexy."

The girl couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Well, you are certainly modest."

"But sexy."

He emphasized proudly.

"Seriously, my love, you are, you are the sexiest guy on campus."

"That's why you shouldn't lose me."

"I insist, you are very modest."

She said sarcastically.

"Well, my sexy guy, let's go because I don't want to lose points in Mr. Shelton's class."

The young man got up from the grass and helped his girlfriend up.

"I'll see you later, I'll take this time to review some plans."

"Okay, I love you, sweetheart."

The girl said, leaving a chaste kiss on her boyfriend's lips.

"I love you more, princess, remember that, don't forget our date tonight at 7:00pm."

"I know, at 7:00pm."

The girl replied, playing with her hands as she walked away to her class.

"YES, FINALLY."

The man shouted, sounding victorious and drawing attention from others.

"Sorry, sorry."

He apologized to the people around him and left the campus.

"I can't believe it, friend, you'll finally have sex with your beloved."

"Shhh Emma, speak quieter, it's not necessary for everyone in the classroom to know."

The girl said, blushing with embarrassment.

"For God's sake, Ana, it's normal, and besides, you've been together for what, a year?"

"Today we're celebrating our one-year anniversary, actually."

She replied, showing a wide smile.

"Well, just remember to be cautious, you know what I mean."

"What do you mean?"

The girl rolled her eyes.

"Come on, Ana, you're a virgin but not stupid. I mean, remember to use protection, I don't think you want to have a baby without even finishing university."

"Of course, I already told David to be careful, everything is planned. She smiled timidly."

Emma hugged her friend.

"You're so innocent sometimes, I can't believe why you're my friend, I mean, not because of you, but because of me, I'm the worst."

Ana smiled.

"Don't say that, you're my best friend and you're wonderful."

"My God, I'm going to cry."

She said, wiping away an imaginary tear.

"You're so dramatic."

After finishing class, the two girls decided to go out for a drink.

"Mmm this is delicious, Ana."

"Isn't it?"

Ring-Ring

📲Hello, mom, what's up?

📱My love, anyone listening would think you don't like my calls.

📲No, not at all, mom, what do you need?

📱Well, dear, I imagine you must be busy, I just called to let you know that Anabel called to say she's coming back from her trip today.

📲Well, thanks for letting me know.

📱I haven't finished yet, daughter, I'm calling to ask you not to make any plans tonight, because I'm preparing a dinner for your sister and I want us all to be together as a family.

📲But mom, I can't tonight, I have...

She didn't finish her words as she was interrupted.

📱No, you don't have any other commitments. If you have something, you cancel it. Remember what I always tell you, family...

📲Family always comes first. I know.

📱Exactly.

📲Well, I'll be there on time.

📱That's what I like, I'll see you tonight, my love. I love you.

📲I love you too, Mom.

After the call, she looked at her friend, who seemed quite down.

"Don't tell me you're ditching David."

Ana sighed.

"Anabel is coming back today."

"But, friend, you can't just leave your boyfriend hanging because your bitch of a sister is back."

"EMMA."

"I'm serious, you know I'm telling the truth, she's always been envious of you. Don't even think about introducing her to David, he might even fall for her charms."

Ana lowered her head, feeling hurt.

"Do you think David would leave me for Anabel?"

Emma noticed that she had hurt her friend with her words.

"I'm sorry, sweetheart, forgive me, but it just makes me angry to remember all the things she's done to you. Obviously, David would never cheat on you with her, he loves you, friend, I've seen it in his eyes."

Ana sighed sadly.

"And now, how do I tell him we have to cancel our plans for tonight?"

"I wouldn't cancel it if I were you, think about it, tonight is your night, you can't postpone it just because your sister arrived. You can see her tomorrow at home, and hopefully she won't stay for long again."

"Anyway, wish me luck, I'm going to look for David."

"Good luck, friend, I'll talk to you later."

She said while hugging her.

Elsewhere, the young man left the luxurious jewelry store with a big smile on his face.

"Today is the day."

He said to himself.

Ring-Ring

📲My Love, telepathy exists, I was thinking of you.

📱Hello David, can we meet?

📲How? Why don't we wait until tonight?

📱That's what I wanted to talk to you about.

📲What's wrong? My Love.

📱I'm sorry, sweetheart, but we can't see each other tonight.

📲How? But why?

📱Something came up at home and I have to be there early.

📲But no, Love, why? Everything was ready for tonight.

He said, quite disappointed.

📱Forgive me, sweetheart, I promise I'll make it up to you later.

📲Well, there's no other choice then.

The man replied, quite disillusioned.

📱Forgive me, remember that I love you, please let's have coffee and talk.

📲Don't worry, settle your matters and we'll talk later.

📱My Love, please.

📲Don't worry, we'll talk later.

With those words, the call ended. Ana couldn't help but feel sad, as her relationship with David was the closest thing to true love, she was deeply in love and she knew he was too. But above all, she was a good daughter, regardless of her sister's behavior, she was aware that she shouldn't ruin family moments just because of their differences. She loved her parents and couldn't bear to disappoint them or make them feel bad because of her.

"I'm glad you arrived early, it helps me to finish preparing everything."

Anastasia nodded, somewhat disappointed because her plans with her beloved had been ruined. Hours later, her sister arrived.

"I'm glad you're finally home, how was your trip?"

"Fine mother, although a bit annoying because of the people in Madrid."

She said in an arrogant tone of voice.

"And where's my little sister?"

"She's in her room, I'll go get her."

"It's not necessary mother, I'll personally surprise her."

She said in a playful tone.
