Episode 20

Alana

I wake up later because I wasn't used to going to clubs or sleeping so late, even so, I went for a run for at least an hour, to enjoy the summer because in winter it's not always possible and then you have to run on the treadmill which is not the same thing, actually it's very different.

I come back and Benjamin sends a message

Benjamin - good morning

Alana - good morning

Benjamin - I can pick you up in about 15 minutes or if you prefer tell me the time that's best

Alana - sorry Benjamin I'm going with Celina and Felipe my father called saying he needs to talk to us and then I'll go, ok

Benjamin - of course, I'll wait for you then I'll send you the address and let me know when you're arriving that I'll meet you

Alana - combined

Benjamin - what does your father want, sorry but he's not trustworthy

Alana - I know that, I don't know either, I'll tell you later if you want.

Benjamin - ok, if you need me call me

Alana - ok, thanks I love your kind side.

Alana thinking - why does he have to be so kind, so attentive to me if I didn't know it was a facade I could swear he likes me. But as we agreed to treat each other well, to be friends to make these two years easier it's just his role Alana, don't even dream that a handsome, rich, powerful man like that would be interested in me.

Benjamin thinking - I don't know why I care so much about her, it could be appearances, I might have gotten into character, but she's different.

Friends start arriving, the day was beautiful, sunny and warm. Benjamin's house was actually a mansion, it had a large garden, actually it was mostly grass and there were no flowers, just a few plants like palm trees, a huge L-shaped pool that had shallow and deep parts, there was a small separate hot tub area from the pool, huge chairs and umbrellas, all very beautiful. It had a space that Benjamin had made a fence so that when he was with friends he could leave Brutus there. Brutus was his Pitbull dog, he didn't attack anyone he knew, but he didn't allow anyone to touch him except Benjamin and his vet. He only obeyed Benjamin's commands and was even aggressive if threatened or with strangers. Even though he was very obedient, Benjamin preferred to leave him behind the fence as he wasn't always around.

Brutus ran every morning with Benjamin he was the loyal friend we all love.

Alana

Felipe and Celina arrived and we went to my father's house, actually his girlfriend's.

Henrique - Good morning, glad you came family

Celina - hi dad

Felipe - good morning Mr. Henrique

Alana - good morning, what's going on?

Henrique - come in we want to talk to you

Celina - Dad I'm in a hurry I left Elvis with Felipe's mother and she needs to leave

Henrique - it's ok, I'll be brief

At that moment, Ingrid enters, greets them all and sits down next to their father.

Henrique - We're getting married and we'd like to know what you think?

Alana - I think you're already living as if you're married and I don't see any problem, I just hope that you are as good to Ingrid as you were to our mother, yes you were. Dad, you were a man I admired very much, but after what happened, everything changed, so if you go back to being that man, believe me, you will be happy, you will make Ingrid happy and I will be happy for you too.

Henrique with tears in his eyes - it's all I want, Alana forgive me please for putting you in this situation of a fake marriage. If you still want there's still time daughter, we'll try another way Alana.

Alana - well I wish I could because it's not easy but Dad I've already signed a contract and there's a fine in it much bigger than the debt, so forget it.

Celina - I agree with what Alana said, I believe that if you go back to being the father you were years ago you will be happy, and more dad I have my life with Felipe, so for me it doesn't matter.

Felipe - I agree with them.

Alana and Celina end up laughing at Felipe, he wanted to get out of the confusion.

Ingrid - girls, I know Henrique was very wrong to you, I don't want to interfere in your father-daughter relationship, but I want you to know that you can count on me, see me as a friend.

Alana - thank you

Celina also thanks and they end up going even though they invited them to stay.

Alana - Felipe can you drop me off at Benjamin's please

Felipe - of course, if you want or need I'll hit him too and he smiles

Alana smiling - no Felipe, he's nice to me, at least that

Celina - you like him Lana?

Alana - as a friend Ce, we made a deal to be friends and get along to survive these two years, since the interest is on both sides.

Celina - I understand, but even so, I like him, I think.

Alana - don't trip Ce

Felipe laughing - paying to see what happens these two years.

Alana - you guys are so funny today huh

Felipe says that they had sold the car that she had won and given them and invested in their workshop and they were excitedly telling and Celina participated telling the details, Alana was happy to have helped them.
