VALENTINA TOMMASO

I turn to bed and feel so hot, so soft, I still try to open my eyes and breathe hard, I feel the taste of alcohol in my mouth and I put my hands in my hair and when my eyes finally open I see that I was still in the hotel suite.

After having a bottle of champagne and eating chocolate and strawberry, I just wanted to know that today was a holiday. My body hurt and I felt a chill for the body. And when my eyes open at once, I see the clarity coming in through the arrow of the curtain.

"What a hangover...

Looking out the window and I see I have to wake up. I just woke up with the scare of the clarity that hit me in the face. When I looked. I stretched out my body and stretched out when I looked at the little clock on the dresser and got scared, I was late, I ran, I got up, I couldn't even bathe. I looked at the time again. I wanted to be mistaken that I was late, but unfortunately, I was mega late. That's when I ran down and packed my clothes on my body and I went out to the elevator and he was gone. When I look out of the hotel I see rain and a lot and at this time of year it was common. And when I went out on the hotel door, the rain hit very hard. I still shook my head, kind of despair, looked at my phone again and, late, I was screwed. I should have put the phone on to wake up, I forgot. And nothing of the cab stop, and I gave with my hand, waved and nothing of the taxi stop, I looked again. Two more cabs and none of them stopped. I was desperate, I didn't know what else to do. When I looked on my cell phone, two calls from my friend. But I was going to have to wait. When the cab finally arrived, it didn't even give me five minutes. I was already at the office door. I knew I was going to get fed up again. I get in the elevator and let my hair down by fixing it in the elevator mirror.

" Late again... My friend already came with me giving me a cup of coffee. "Boy, he's very nervous, very angry with you. I've done everything, lie, said you'd arrived, that you'd left, but he knows you didn't. She hasn't stopped talking and I stopped arranging her skirt- He's waiting for you, then she doesn't do it again.

"What am I going to say this time?

"You'd better make a good excuse, because he's very nervous. He's shooting for missing the meeting.

" What a piece of shit.

When the elevator opened, there he was in his navy-blue suit, brave-looking, wet hair back. The one he had to be beautiful about. He had a bad one. I lifted my face, shook my hair, and looked into his eyes.

"Good morning, Mr. Matarazzo.

"Again, late? I can't believe you missed the meeting.

I was wrong to be late and he was right. How could I get drunk on champagne and he'd talk and I'd stare at his lips seemed to hit each other nervously. And when I look at him I was going to say something. The wonderful smell permeated the environment.

And I lifted my face by turning only my eyes, there he was at the door. He had wet hair, a black suit, a cummy beard and a brave face. He shook his head with one hand in his pocket. And he put the body a little out of the room and stares at me and everyone looks at him in amazed. And I couldn't believe it when I saw him right there in front of me with a bad face.

This man who came into my life one night and today he's here in front of me, I took a deep breath and shook his head without understanding.

"In my office, Miss Tommaso. And you guys get back to work.

I looked, shook my head without intaling too much, but I knew that at the time he was saving me from my boss, but everyone looked at me. And from what I see, he,

and the new boss. I still give my stuff; my friend and I go to his office and everyone looking at me.

And everyone was going to keep asking me, and what am I going to say to them now? I don't have much to say but. I went into the room and was on my back looking at the window and his breathing was strong.

I stop in the middle of the room waiting for a justification.

I didn't even know why I was walking into that room, you kept me waiting, my legs were wobbly. He turned and hit both hands on the table, looked at me, shook his head. Nothing liked it and I thought he was helping me.

I didn't even know how to behave or tell me who this man is who confuses me like that.

"I hope it doesn't happen again. But you're here to work, no one can know about our relationship. Did you understand? He opened his mouth so meekly and, at the same time, his voice came out thick and strong. "I hope you keep it a secret. Because I don't want my name to go around, everybody talking. Did you understand?

"Yes, I understood all the rules, you don't have to keep repeating all the time, it's okay. Anything else, sir?

"Just do your job.

"Who is this man?"

      
Fiquei tão confusa, saí daquela sala cheia de perguntas e é claro que ele nunca ia me responder. E por que eu? Eu não estava comprando que eu me casei com o CEO das joias e estou aqui domado pelo maldito homem. Trabalho aqui há anos e nunca o vi nesses corredores ou reuniões. Eu estava muito confuso.

As horas passavam muito rápido entre reuniões e ligações e eu mantinha meu dia ocupado. E todo mundo olhando para mim e para mim fingindo que não era eu.

"O que ele queria, você não disse?

"Lute porque eu estava atrasado e disse que ia tirar.

"Ele é muito gostoso, Valentina e eu vimos o rosto que ele olhou para você.

"Lembre-se e seu chefe.

Eu a coloquei de bruços e se ela soubesse eu me casei com ele. E apenas um contrato, Valentina se lembra disso.
