Ayla:
As soon as I leave the company, those scenes keep running through my mind, and with each memory, my body shivers, making my hair stand on end.
Then what Alexia told me comes to my memory, about his wife, how come a wife, I always heard that he was single, and coveted by all?
What happened to her?
She spoke as if she was no longer with us!
Oh my saint, this way this crazy family will make me just like them.
And now what do I do?
How will I react near the grumpy one?
These questions were burning my brain, I believe smoke must even be coming out, so I try to distract myself with the landscape around me, but it's in vain, and it doesn't take long and I get home.
So I take a good shower and have dinner with my mom and then go to bed, and so I pretend to be oblivious to myself and don't think about it anymore.
I wake up early like every day and go to work, I get there and do what needs to be done, it doesn't take long and the grumpy one arrives and doesn't even say good morning to me.
And by the grace of God, lunchtime arrives and I meet up with my accounting colleagues and the crazy Marcela.
Back from lunch, we are waiting for the elevator and Marcela releases some of her pearls.
Marcela: Ayla, you should marry Diogo, he's a good catch and I think you two would make a beautiful couple.
Ayla: Mercy, girl, what's this marriage story, may my little saint not hear such a thing.
Diogo: I accept right now.
Diogo speaks and everyone laughs.
Then we are interrupted by a thick, commanding voice.
El Cortez: Ayla, come with me in this elevator, I need some papers now.
Ayla: My heart even skips a few beats, Mom, this grumpy man is going to give me a heart attack.
Silence hangs over the whole environment and, in order not to cause further embarrassment, I obey him.
So I get in the elevator with him, and he doesn't even say a word to me, well, until we get to his floor.
As soon as we get off, he tells me.
El Cortez: I'm going to tell you this only once, I don't want to know about this flirting business in my company, are you listening to me? Soon you'll be out there making out and crawling up the elevators in this place.
I don't want this place to become a brothel, now if you're interested I'll get you a job at a nightclub or a club if that's what you like.
I hope we don't need to have this conversation anymore, are you listening to me? If you want to arrange a relationship or whatever, you're in the wrong place, after all, this is a serious place and there are several married men.
I hope I've made myself clear!
