Katherine Blumem

I couldn't sleep much, when Zô finally got home and lay down next to us, hugging us afterwards, I was already awake and I was staring at the ceiling until the alarm clock started going off that morning.
I got up before the two of them, and made breakfast for both of them, I didn't feel like drinking coffee or eating something, even if it was cheese bread, I took a long shower and got ready in my room.
 
With the light on the dondocas woke up.
 
 
Katherine - Finally! I buttoned my blouse, the supermarket uniform.
 
 
Maite - Ah... he moaned turning around - Let me sleep a little longer, please. she asked.
 
 
Zoraida - Me too! she muttered, her face between the pillows.
 
 
Katherine - It's already half past six girls. I warned leaving the room and entering Maite's.
 
 
I opened her wardrobe and took my heart chain and put it around my neck and left the room. Zoraida was sitting on the couch like a zombie, holding her towel on her shoulders and Maite in the shower.
I sat next to him on the couch. Hearing the loud sound of water falling from the bathroom.
 
 
Zoraida looked at me and smiled.
 
 
Zoraida - I'm not exactly beautiful when I wake up. she muttered.
 
 
Her eyes averted from mine as if she was embarrassed. Her head tilted a little when she did this and I ended up seeing a mark on her neck. A bite
 
 
I sighed, tying my hair.
 
 
Katherine - How is your thing with Eddy?
 
 
Zoraida - Well, why? smiled.
 
 
Katherine - I imagine you are really doing very well. I touched the bite mark - I'm not the best person to indicate this, but... I took a deep breath - They're using a condom, right? raised an eyebrow.
 
 
She laughed.
 
 
Zoraida - Yes we are! she muttered.
 
 
Katherine - What happened? I was surprised by your posture.
 
 
Zoraida - What? frowned.
 
 
Katherine - You're hiding something, I just don't know what it is. I looked at her sideways.
 
 
Zoraida shook her head.
 
 
Zoraida - I'm not Kat. sighed - I just love Eddy, you know? And I couldn't bear to lose him. she murmured-But I really want him to be happy too.
 
 
Katherine - He loves you and his happiness is on your side. Why this now? huh? I touched your shoulder
- Why don't you bring him here? Stay here with him?
 
 
Zoraida - I... I... shook her head - I think I'm afraid. she whispered.
 
 
Katherine - From what?
 
 
Zoraida - Of losing him like I lost my parents. she closed her eyes- It was all so sudden, so fast. I always laughed at these cliché sayings that "your life could change in a second" I thought it was the biggest bullshit, but then I discovered that it was real, what they were saying. Your life can change in mere seconds.
 
 
Katherine - We've already talked about this. I touched her shoulder.
 
 
Zoraida - I know! But I can't stop thinking about it, that if I bring more Eddy into my life, but I'm going to suffer.
 
 
I touched your hands.
 
 
Katherine - Zô, you can't spend your whole life thinking that fate will take someone else away from you. That was an accident, it was inevitable. But you are here. She's alive, with me and May. And with Eddy.
 
 
Zoraida - I know, but...
 
 
Katherine - But nothing. You love Eddy, he loves you, why don't you open up to him? She looked at me arching an eyebrow - I mean, why don't you talk to him? blushed.
 
 
Zoraida - Why did you blush? I haven't said anything yet. she muttered laughing.
 
 
Katherine - I didn't blush. I looked away.
 
 
Zoraida - Hmm...
 
 
Katherine - And don't change your subject maiden.
 
 
Zoraida took a deep breath.
 
 
Zoraida - I'll do it, ok? Thanks! hugged me - I don't know what I would do without you in my life.
 
 
Dulce - What's up, kitty... I sighed - - You and May are my only family.
 
 
 
 
[...]
 
 
 
At 7:55 am the taxi stopped in front of the hospital where Klaus was. Maite looked around for something, or rather someone. Like, paparazzi.
 
 
Or something similar.
 
 
Katherine - Don't you get tired of always being after these paparazzi? I asked entering the hospital hall with her.
 
 
The reception was full.
 
 
Nurses were going from one place to another, people were waiting in chairs to be attended to, and the famous smell I love, which for many were strange, was everywhere.
 
 
Maite - No! smiled.
 
 
Maite decided to be late for work today, according to her, she wanted to thank Mr Uckermann herself and to take a picture with him. Crazy? Perhaps.
 
 
I approached the reception, but as it was too crowded, we got in line to be served by one of the three receptionists. Maite sighed.
 
 
Maite - Am I the only one who found Zoraida strange?
 
 
Katherine - She wasn't weird, it's just the same old thing. I shook my head.
 
 
Maite - Fear? nodded - I understand.
 
 
Katherine - Me too! But she can't think that for the rest of her life, someone she loves will die as her parents. That is...
 
 
Maite - Fear... completed by herself - But she should look for a good psychologist, who knows, she can get over it.
 
Katherine - Yeah!
 
 
Maite - How do you think Klaus will receive you? she bit her lip anxiously.
 
 
laugh.
 
 
Katherine - What do you mean May? I'll see you to thank you for what you've done and see if I can be of any help. It's the least I can do after he took two shots for me.
 
 
Maite - Okay! But like, will he accept that I take a picture with him? The guy is very famous. his eyes lit up as he spoke-And I want to have pictures with celebrities. I already have the cute ones from Grazi Masafera, Cleó Pires, Malvino Salvador, Paloma Bernades, Paola Oliveira, Otaviano Costa and Flavia Alexandra. clapped his hands and some people who were in line made faces - Bunch of bad tempers. she muttered towards them.
 
 
Katherine - Maite, please don't scare him with your... um... I hesitated - obsession with famous people. I asked.
 
 
Maite crossed her arms, offended.
 
 
Maite - I don't scare anyone. moonlight - But he's Klaus Uckermann, one of the most important guys in the world, who knows millions of celebrities, and technically, he's one of them. Now imagine that my shelf will have a picture of me with him, I will be at the international photographic level. sighed.
 
 
Katherine - Sometimes you scare me. I looked at the girl, one of the secretaries in front of me - Yeah... Klaus Uckermann, we came to visit you. I warned, leaning my arms against the cool marble counter.
 
 
The dark-haired secretary with light green eyes, typed something on the key and looked at me right away.
 
 
Xxx - Mr Uckermann is in room 3013 under observation. looked at Maite - Only one more person is allowed in the room now, since two of his relatives are there now. he commented.
 
 
Maite - Oh no! grimaced - I came all this way not to talk to him?
 
 
Xxx - I'm sorry! the girl said awkwardly - As soon as one of his relatives leaves the room, he can enter, only three people are allowed in the room at most, according to the hospital rules.
 
 
Maite sighed sadly and defeated, picking up a "visitor" sign.
 
 
Maite - Okay. Thanks! - He pulled me out of the reception and took me in front of the huge door that leads to the rooms - Here it is. she stuck the sign on my blouse-And tell one of these friends to back off, because I want to see Klaus.
 
 
Katherine - Maite! I scolded her.
 
 
Maite - What? He shrugged, a small shy smile on his lips.
 
 
I shook my head and walked through the white, revolving door.
 
 
 
[...]
 
 
 
It wasn't hard to find the room, as I walked into it yesterday. But as I walked my heart felt like I was giving samba lessons and I don't even know why.
It could only be because of my great anxiety to see him again. But now, with no effect of medicine or anything like that, that leaves him senseless. In "groggy".
 
 
In short steps, in a few minutes he was in front of the room. I took my hand to the door handle and when I would turn it the loud but muffled laughter echoed from inside the room out where I was.
With my hands still on the doorknob, I closed my eyes and shook my head, backing away from the door. OK. I should go in there and thank him, it's the least I can do, but why can't I?
Why the hell are my legs like jelly and they can only walk backwards?
 
 
I snorted.
 
 
Enter Katherine.
 
 
Now.
 
 
I took a step but came back again.
 
 
What the hell! I can not.
 
 
I sighed and turned on my heel, turning around to head back to the front desk and get Maite's biggest scolding, but the bedroom door opened and Vivian walked out with her head down, chuckling.
 
 
As soon as he lifted his head and saw me, he didn't lose his smile.
 
 
Vivian - Hello dear. approached me - I'm glad you came. I couldn't take it anymore...
 
 
Dulce - I won't be able to enter. I spoke a little loudly. She frowned at me - I mean, unfortunately I won't be able to get in, I have to go to work now and if I'm late I might get fired - I blurted out the first thing that popped into my head.
 
 
Vivian - And you came here to say that? she crossed her arms.
 
 
Katherine - No...I mean...yes. she looked at me suspiciously, I sighed - I can't enter the room.
 
 
Vivian - And why?
 
 
Katherine - I can't. I muttered.
 
 
Vivian - How?
 
 
Dulce - Never mind! I don't want to be a snob or anything, I'd really like to thank you personally, but I can't. Because of a strange reason I can't go. Please thank him for me. That I will never forget what he did and that he gained a fan, actually three at once, and that he takes care of himself and gets better soon to return to his life before. And thanks again for me.
 
 
Vivian - We're already here in the hallway, why don't you talk to him? she pointed to the door-The time we're wasting here, give it a go.
 
 
Katherine - Don't give. I said starting to walk
 
 
Vivian - Wait... I looked at her - Will you at least come back later? I was silent and she looked at me suspiciously - Why don't you want to talk to him?
 
 
Katherine - I told you, I can't. I replied before turning my back and running to the Hospital Hall.
 
 
Coward! stupid! Asshole!
 
 
Now he's going to find me a suitcase, an ungrateful one, who didn't even personally want to thank him. What an idiot Kat, idiot.
 
 
As soon as Maite saw me, she got up from the chair she was sitting on.
 
 
Maite - Already? So fast? she frowned.
 
 
Katherine - Yes, and not being able to take a picture of him.
 
 
Maite - Why?
 
 
Katherine - Friends didn't let her. I made it up even though I knew she would never believe it since she raised an eyebrow-Now shall we? I asked starting to walk out of the hospital.
 
 
Maite - What happened Kat? asked accompanied me.
 
 
I stopped at a garbage can, and removed the sign and threw it in the trash.
 
 
For the first time in my life, I was a coward and I don't even know why. Is good?
 
 
Katherine - Nothing! Nothing happened.
