Maria Eduarda ( part 2)

I look at my sister and I feel like laughing at the way she talked about my Leon's "ex-girlfriend".
- She came to ask to come back with me, again, and on top of that she insisted again that she was pregnant with my child.
- What a bitch!
- I have to agree with you there, sister!
- And how did she react when she found out that you two are together?
- Magnet, you should have seen her face when she said I was his girlfriend," I said, laughing.
- She hated to hear that, didn't she?
- She sure did! - I comment, and look at Leon: -Help me down!
- Oh, yes, my queen, I'll help you down," he picks me up and places me slowly on the floor. His eyes meet mine and soon we are kissing.
- My God, you are acting like teenagers in heat," Vane protests, and I laugh again.
- Well, I have to go," I finally say, pulling out of Leon's arms.
- Where are you going? - asks Vanessa.
- I have an appointment with the psychologist.
- So Lucas made it for you?
- Yes, and it's coming up soon.
- Then I'll come with you! - Leon says, already grabbing his cell phone and car keys.
- Leon, I told you I don't want to get in your way.
- And I said I'd go with you! - he says, and I throw my hands up in protest.
- OK, then let's go" I finally say goodbye to Vanessa. Leon hugs me and takes my bag, and we walk out of the company. In the elevator, as soon as I see that it is empty, I turn to Leon as the door closes and ask: "Leon, is Laura really going to be a problem for us?
- No problem at all. I already said that I don't want to be with her, and she doesn't understand.
- Who says I'm so hot?
- My queen, I'll tell you one thing: nothing more happened between us.
- And what about this damn pregnancy that she talks so much about?
- My queen, she and I have never had sex without a condom.
- Then she must be lying.
- Of course she is, if she really is pregnant it must be another man's.
- Leon, she loves you," I comment, because I had seen her jealous expression.
- Duda, she loves only herself," just as he was about to continue, the elevator doors open and we get out of there, heading for the parking lot. Already in the car, Leon looks at me and says: - She thinks that just because we had sex I am in love with her and vice versa. In fact, I don't even think she knows what love is.
- Leon, I saw the way she looked at you, and I also saw her undressing for you! - I answer, eager to pluck that chicken.
- Duda, do you really think I was looking at her with desire?
- I hope not, if you really love your life! - I grumble, and he laughs.
- You are the only woman I want in my life! - he declares, pulling my face away and kissing me lightly.
- I love you, Leon, and I can't imagine my life without you," I confess as soon as we stop kissing.
- I love you too, my queen!
- I'll strangle that chicken if it comes near you again, do you hear me?
- You can rest assured that I won't go near her.
- It's a good thing, if you love your cock!
- Oh, my queen, yes I do! - he says, laughing, and starts the car. - What is the doctor's address?
I pass it to him and we drive towards the doctor's office. Then I realize that I forgot to ask her name, and Lucas didn't tell me either.
I take my cell phone and dial his number, while Leon looks at me curiously. As soon as I answer, I speak:
- Lucas, it's Duda, you didn't give me the doctor's name. - Thank you, I'm on my way - I end the call and tell Leon: "The doctor's name is Julia Bastos.
- In a little while we will be arriving at her office.
- I hope the appointment doesn't take too long.
- And we haven't even had lunch.
- That's true. Then we can go to a snack bar and have a snack.
- Oh, I called my lawyer," Leon suddenly lets out.
- And what did he say?
- He is going to the police station today to see how things are going, and if he needs us to come to the police station he will let me know.
- The only thing I want more than anything is to forget this whole story," I confess, and Leon stops the car, takes my hand and brings it to his mouth.
- And you will, because I'm going to help you get over it," he says, tenderly, giving me his strength, and I thank God so much for having put this man in my path!
- Yes, I will, my prince, thank you for the strength you always give me.
- Here we are! - Leon speaks, and I look at the scene.
- Yes, we're here.
- Are you ready?
- Honestly, so-so," I confess, without amusement.
- My queen, everything will be fine, and if you don't like the doctor, we'll find another one," he says, supporting me and wanting to put my mind at ease. This is why I loved this man so much.
- Thank you, Leon!
- What are you thanking me for?
- For being such a wonderful man.
- You're welcome. And I'll tell you one thing: I'll do everything I can to make you forget what happened to you," he declares, kissing me. He gets out of the car, goes to my side and helps me out.
We go to the entrance of the doctor's office, and he, as always, hugs me. I saw the envious looks on the women's faces when we entered the reception area, as if they were wondering how a man like that could be with a fat girl like me. This gave me the strength to show them that the man in question was mine and make it clear that he had a mistress.
- Good afternoon, I have an appointment with Dr. Julia Bastos," I tell the receptionist, who is still staring at my man, enchanted. I think to myself: "You are just going to stare, my child".
- Miss, my girlfriend has an appointment with the doctor," Leon calls her attention, and she wakes up from her trance and calls the doctor. Before long, we are called. As soon as we enter, we are greeted by a lady who greets us:
- Pleasure, I'm Doctor Julia Bastos! - she points to the sofa. - You are Maria Eduarda Sanches, right?
- Yes, and this is my boyfriend, Leon Vitorino.
- Pleasure, Mr. Vitorino - she says, sincere. - Well, before we begin, do you want your boyfriend to leave the room so we can talk?
Just as I was about to answer, Leon answers quickly:
- Sorry, doctor, but I'm not leaving!
- Doctor, what Leon means is that he will accompany the consultations.
- And Mr. Vitorino is sure you don't want to leave?
- Absolutely," he says firmly, and holds my hand when he sees that I am trembling. I didn't even realize it myself.
- Then let's get started. Tell me exactly what is going on with the young lady.
- On November 4, 2016 was my eighteenth birthday and I went to a nightclub with two classmates to celebrate. I take a deep breath before continuing.
- Calm down, my queen, everything will be fine! - Leon consoles me, takes the hand I was holding to his mouth and kisses it, encouraging me.
- Would the young lady like some water?
- Yes, please! - I thank her, and she gets up and goes to a mini-fridge, gets two little bottles of water and brings them to us. I open mine and feel the liquid go down, taking with it the ball that was in my throat.
I had to be strong and tell them everything. How things happened and also what happened right after, even with the fear I was feeling at that moment that Leon would never look at me again when he knew what I tried to do against myself that night. Was I a coward, or am I still a coward?
- Is everything all right? - the doctor asked cautiously, and I could tell she was worried.
- Yes, I am fine.
- Do you want to schedule another session?
- No, I want to continue - I look at Leon, who looks at me, still worried: - I'm fine! - I look at the doctor and continue: - That same night, I was doped, beaten and raped - I take a deep breath and continue, without looking at Leon: - And the pain I was feeling was so strong, that I had an idea. And I put it into practice. I tried to kill myself by slitting my wrists," I show them to him, and Leon looks at me surprised. I guess it had never crossed his mind what I had done.
- What? - he shouts, shocked, and I begin to cry with shame, regret, and for knowing that perhaps at that moment Leon would see that the woman he said he admired so much was nothing but a beautiful coward.
