Episode 14

...Julia…...

Of course, I remembered about Saturday, I had even decided to stay with the kids and just stop by to visit Mr. Joao and the girls on Sunday, but now with all the embarrassment I went through, I'm going to pack my things and go today.

I separate an outfit and get ready to leave. I go to Bia's room and say goodbye to her while she's sleeping, I do the same with Gabriel and I don't know exactly what it was, but I felt the feeling that they wouldn't be okay without me, that I needed to stay.

Julia: Hi Luis.

Luis: Hi Ju, the boss told me to take you.

Julia: I won't say no to a ride Luis.

I get in the car.

Luis: This way, I also get to see Virginia... I see her every day when she's in the garden, it's a shame I can't talk to her.

Julia: Silly you, why don't you ask for her number?

Luis: Do you think she would give me her number, Ju?

Julia: Of course she would!

He smiles and continues the journey.

Renan…

As soon as Julia leaves, I'm sure she'll want to leave today instead of tomorrow, I go down and tell Luis to take her, then I go up and stay on the balcony watching.

I see that she and Luis seem to be getting along very well, they are always smiling when they are together. I go in and see if my kids are awake.

Renan: Time to wake up, or you won't be sleepy later.

Gabriel: Just a little longer.

Renan: Just five more minutes, I'm going to wake your sister up and I'll be right back.

I leave his room and go to Bia's.

Renan: Hi sweetie, let's wake up.

Beatriz: Daddy

Renan: Hi my love, shall we get up?

I try to pick her up and she refuses.

Renan: What's wrong?

She keeps looking around.

Renan: I know, it's Julia... honey, Julia is not here, you'll have to come with me.

I pick her up even though she's crying and go wake up Gabriel, we go down to the living room and I look at my cell phone, Julia sent me a message.

💬Julia: I left a soup ready for dinner. Good night, see you tomorrow.

So dry, she's probably still embarrassed.

Gabriel: Dad, where's Julia?

Renan: Today she gets off early, son, and tomorrow she's off, Julia should only be back tomorrow night or Monday morning.

Gabriel: No way, where did she go?

Renan: I don't know son, Julia can go wherever she wants. Let's have lunch?

He follows me to the kitchen and I put Bia in the chair, she starts to cry desperately.

Gabriel: Julia always puts her to play on the rug, I'll go get it.

He comes back with Bia's rug and puts it on the floor, they both play while I cut the fruit and put it in the pot.

Renan: Ready.

Gabriel comes to the table and I pick up Bia.

Renan: What's wrong?

Gabriel: It's just that Julia always does something fun with fruit…

Renan: What do you mean something fun?

Gabriel: She makes bears, cars, trees…

Renan: What?

Gabriel: Forget it, Dad.

He eats and I'm intrigued by this fun fruit story.

Julia…

I arrive at Dona Gloria's house and Virginia comes out to greet me.

Virginia: Ju! I missed you so much, friend.

We hug.

Julia: I missed you too, Vi, it's good to see you.

She notices Luis behind me and waves to him.

Julia: I'm going in, talk to Luis for a bit!

Virginia: What?

I go in and close the door, leaving the two of them outside.

Gloria: Julia!

Julia: Dona Gloria, Seu Joao!

Joao: Hi Julia, good to see you here, girl.

I hug them and we sit down.

Julia: I'm so happy to see you guys, I was missing you.

Gloria: Us too! Come on, tell us how it's been at the Diaz house.

Julia: It's been great, the kids are wonderful and Mr. Renan is a good boss.

Joao: I knew you'd get something better, girl! I'm glad you're enjoying the job, now I need to go do a job for a colleague, I'll see you later.

Julia: Okay, see you later, Mr. Joao.

He leaves and soon Virginia enters.

Julia: So, Vi?

Virginia: He asked for my number!

Gloria: The driver?

Virginia: Yes, mom!

Gloria: Let's see if you get a boyfriend now!

Virginia and I laughed a lot.

Virginia: Now I want to hear from you Julia, how is it like working at the hot neighbor's house?

Julia: I just told your mother that it's been wonderful... but today something happened that left me very embarrassed...

Virginia: Oh my God, tell me!

Gloria: Did you break something?

Julia: I wish it was...

Virginia: What happened?

Julia: I saw Mr. Renan naked!

Gloria: What?

Virginia: What?

I told them how it all happened and Virginia was soon laughing at the situation.

Virginia: My God, I can only imagine your face when you saw his thing.

She laughed non-stop.

Julia: I didn't even get a good look, it was very quick and he had a lot of soap on his body.

Virginia: If you didn't get a good look, why did you faint? Too much hotness for you, my daughter?

Gloria: Behave yourself, girl!

Dona Gloria yelled at her.

Julia: I was nervous, imagine the embarrassment...

Gloria: Yeah, I imagine... poor you, Julia.

Virginia: But if he even joked about it, it's because he shouldn't have cared, these things happen, Ju.

Gloria: Yes, just be more careful from now on.

They laugh.

Julia: I wasn't even going to come today, but after what happened, I decided to come here right away.

Gloria: So you mean to say that the young lady wouldn't want to see us!?

Julia: That's not it, Dona Gloria, I misspoke... it's just that I didn't want to leave the boys, you know?

Gloria: They'll be fine.

Julia: I know, I even left soup ready for dinner and sent Mr. Renan a message letting him know... the problem is missing them, I've already gotten used to spending the day with them.

We spent the whole night talking, Mr. Joao came back and we had dinner, after dinner Virginia and I went up to the room and I got a call from Mr. Renan.

Virginia: If I were you, I wouldn't answer, he might be calling because he wants you to come back so he can go out with Ms. Emily.

Julia: I don't think so... I'll answer, it could be something with the kids.

📱Julia: Hello?

📱Gabriel: Julia?

📱Julia: Hi my love, does your dad know you're on his phone?

📱Gabriel: Yes, I just wanted to know if you're coming back.

📱Julia: Of course I am, honey, why would you ask that?

📱Gabriel: It's just that you left without saying goodbye…

📱Julia: I went to your room, I just didn't want to wake you up because of that... next time I'll let you know before, okay?

📱Gabriel: Okay... bye, Julia.

📱Julia: Bye my love, give Bia a kiss for me, see you soon.

He hangs up the phone.

Virginia: Looks like they love you.

I smile at her.

During the night I have several strange nightmares about a woman, I wake up at dawn and keep trying to remember details of the dream, but without success, I go back to sleep.
