         After our sexual act, we lay there talking and caressing each other. The cell phone rings, Alex gets up to answer it. I sit on the bed and admire his beautiful body. While he's talking on his cell phone, I'm drooling over him. How generous nature was to this man! I think. I look at his ass without him noticing. I make a naughty face. He looks at me and says:
"You're a pervert!
" —Alex comments when he sees me admiring his body.
— Yes… I really am a pervert!
— I agree with him.
"Love...
We're going to have to interrupt our moment." He warns and I get worried.
- What happened?
I ask worriedly.
“We have to go to the station,” Alex warns.
I get up in fright. I go to the bathroom, Alex follows me. We took a quick shower.
"Alex, has something happened to the kids?
" — I worry.
- No!
It's okay with the twins. We have to go to the police station to find out if it was, in fact, Renata who poisoned you. I'll call home and ask my driver to take the twins to the agency. - Alex says and I feel calmer. While he's talking to his driver, I sort out the clothes I'm going to wear. — There, Leticia will stay with the children — he says.
“Fine, better keep them away from Renata now that we're about to find out the truth,” I say.
“I'm sure it was Renata who poisoned me, but I need confirmation.
“Love, we don't know if the evidence incriminates you.
So let's take it easy, okay?! - Alex warns. Even though I know he's right, I feel in my heart that she's to blame.
"Okay.
I just want this to be over soon!" - I answer tiredly, not waiting for this story to end.
- I know my love!
And soon everything will be resolved,” Alex answers, reassuring me.
"God hear you!
" I reply.
         He hugs me, wanting to reassure me, Alex lifts my face and gives me a light kiss and hugs me again, this time with more force.
I feel protected when I'm in your arms! And as much as I wanted to continue making love to him, we had to go out and settle this matter. We just change and head to the police station.
"Are you ready, marrentinha?
" Alex asks.
— Yes, I need to confirm that it was really your maid who poisoned me.
— We head out of the room, I check if there's water and food for Estrelinha, and we leave the house.

Half an hour later...

Alex parks the car in front of the police station. My hands are shaking. I'm anxious to know who poisoned me!
- Are you ready?
Alex asks, caressing my hand.
- I am scared!
I answer sincerely.
“Don't be afraid, my love.
Will be all right! Alex gives me a kiss.
“I hope, Alex!
— We got out of the car and went inside the police station.
        My stomach hurts, my hands are cold...
I think I'm going to die! In my head, negative thoughts reign. And I can't say anything about how I feel to Alex. We stop in front of the police station hall, I watch Alex talk to a girl. She looks at us, points to a hallway and says:
"This way, gentlemen," the girl calls to us.
we followed her straight down the corridor, it didn't take long and we arrived at the officers' room, Alves and Faria.
— Good afternoon, Senhor Mendonça and Miss Baptista — they greet us.

“Good afternoon, officers,” we responded to the greeting and sat down.

— Good.
It's been a month since Miss Baptista was poisoned… — Police officer Faria begins.
"That's been a month!
" I agree with her.
    The two police officers look at each other, I look at Alex, and a silence is present.
My God, the suspense is killing me! So I break it.
"Yeah...
So what happened?" I ask anxiously.
— Well, we got in touch with the hospital to do the investigation — police officer Alves says.

- Yes it is?
Alex asks anxiously.
“They passed the name of the poison.
And we went to research the place where it is sold — police officer Faria says. “He's sold at an herbal stall, we seized a few stalls and did some testing, then we found the same poison that was found in his system.
'And what happens now?
' Alex asks curiously.
- Calm!
– Police officer Alves asks. — We went after finding out who bought the product. We asked the saleswoman several questions, who told us that she only sold that weed to six people.
"And you managed to get in touch with these people?
" “I feel my legs are shaking. Alex, seeing my state, holds my hand in an attempt to calm me down.
— Yes, but we were only able to contact them because the store has a surveillance camera — Police officer Faria comments.

"Was it difficult to find the person who bought the weed, who poisoned Jack?
" Alex was very curious.
— Since it's not a well-known poison, it was easier to find who bought it — police officer Alves says.
“So we found who poisoned her.
I feel a mixture of relief and apprehension, Alex questions the police about the identity of the criminal (or criminal), I notice a tone of hate in his speech.
At that moment, I had confirmation that he would not let it go, he would go after whoever tried to kill me. .
— First of all, I want to inform you that the person bought the poison many years ago!
– the policeman says and his colleague nods.
- I did not understand?
“She was getting confused.
“I'll explain better.
Whoever poisoned you already had the poison stored for about ten years...
- Like this?!
The person bought the poison ten years ago and it still works! — I interrupt.
“Yes.
Amazingly. If the product is stored well, it maintains its quality.
"So who was it that tried to kill my girlfriend?
" Alex asks seriously.
— Mr.
Mendonça, who tried to kill your girlfriend... It was your maid — and the one who set off the bomb is policewoman Faria.
- Renata?
Alex asks, shocked.
— Yes, it was her!
– Police officer Faria confirms.
— I don't understand, why did she want to kill my girlfriend?
Alex starts pacing back and forth.
“We did an investigation on her.
And we found out that she suffers from “Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder! ” — Police officer Faria comments, I look at her and say:
-Obsessive-compulsive disorder?
Is she a crazy person who thinks she has to kill me to be with Alex?! — I get up and Alex tries to calm me down.
- Honey, she tries to stay calm!
- he asks.
"How am I supposed to be calm, with this crazy woman around us?
" I ask.
— You can rest assured, Miss Baptista.
We asked for the arrest warrant, soon Miss Colunga will be arrested,” policeman Alves says, wanting to reassure us.
"And when are you going to arrest this madwoman?
" Alex asks and I thank God the twins are at Alex's agency.
— While you were on your way to the police station, we sent a police car to make Miss Colunga's arrest — Officer Faria warns and I feel calmer.

'And what will happen to her?
' I ask massaging my hands, because I'm dying to punch that bitch.
“She's going to be charged with attempted murder, with the qualifier cruel motive and illegal possession of poison,” the policewoman replies.

“I hope she gets many years in jail,” Alex comments and hugs me.
I feel relieved to know that Renata is going to be arrested and we are finally going to live in peace.
“She could get three to thirty years in jail.
It all depends on the prosecutor who will take the case — police officer Alves informs.
"I hope she's over thirty years old!
" - Alex speaks.
“I hope so!
— I agree with him.
“You are released.
I just need you to sign the complaint and then you'll only be called to the trial. — The policeman hands us some papers to sign.
"Thank you for everything you've done for us!
" — I extend my hand and Alex does the same thing, before we leave, his cell phone rings, he answers:
“Just a moment.
” he tells the person on the other end of the line. We said goodbye to the cops and headed outside. We pull up next to Alex's car and I hear him yelling. "What do you mean you couldn't get my kids?"
