| | The Burlesque was deserted. It had been three days since Tess had discussed with Vince. And at the Club no one had seen her yet.
Marcus was sitting on the counter and was drinking a glass of ginger.
Tess joined him.
-Hey ...-she said heartbroken.
-Hello ... -
Marcus put his glass down.
-You'll wonder where I've been so far, right? -
Marcus looked into her eyes, and he could feel her sadness.
-In your office. -
-Yeah ... -
The woman sat down next to him.
Marcus felt a chill run down his spine.
Her eyes were red and despite being the made up carefully, you could very well see her suffering.
-Can I do anything for you? -
-I do not know. A bottle of whiskey does not ... will not solve my problems. - The woman said, looking around.
-Not even a hundred, would fill my empty .. -
Marcus nodded.
-Sean told me what happened between you and ... -
-What a son of a bitch. -
Marcus swallowed.
- A damn asshole. -
Marcus patted the woman's hand.
- I ... I just want to be happy. -
Her eyes filled with tears.
Marcus handed her a kerchief to dry.
She smiled.
- You know, I should have listened to my mother. She was right. Vince would never have made mr happy. -
-Then why did you marry him? -
-I wanted to prove to my mother that she was wrong. Vince and I would have been happy together. -
-And what happened? -
-Everything ... everything is born, the night after the wedding. -
-Have you done sex ..? -
-Yes. Mom wanted so much an heir. And Vince and I were ready to have a baby. -
She licked her lips.
-We tried a whole year ... with no results. I thought ... it was my fault. We tried for four long years. -
Her words seemed to come from his heart.
-I should not wonder if Debbie became pregnant. -
He laughed, and Marcus also did the same.
-Do you want to go home? -
-I do not wanna go to my house. -
The woman answered coldly.
-Well .. I did not say "your house" ... if you want, you can come stay with me ... until it is all sorted out with Vince. -
The woman hugged Marcus.
-You would do this favor for me? -
- Again ... in short, my house is also your home until you want. -
-Well ... I'll have to find the money to pay the rent monthly. -
Marcus shook his head.
-No rent. You are free to come and go from my house. -
Tess patted the man's hand, squeezing it hard.
-Thank you Marcus. I do not want to be a burden to you. Well ... I continually mood swings .... -
-Do not worry. -
The two looked at each other, then the boy looked down.
- But only on one condition ... -
The woman looked at him puzzled.
-I do not want to see you ... never say never sad. -
Tess smiled.
-Okay Sir Gaber! -
The two laughed.
They got into the car.
-You would not mind if I drive. - Marcus said turning on the engine.
-No .. do not worry. You lend me home ... I'll lend you the car. -
Marcus smiled.
-Well .. -
The ride home was pleasant.
Tess and Marcus talked about many topics.
-You know I have to admit that your home is just beautiful. -
-Thank you Tess .. -
-So .. is a pure amazement. -
He smiled.
- You might wonder why a man with an imposing house like mine, in your local. -
- Well ... Let's just say yes. -
Marcus parked the car.
- You see, my family is known for its rich ... -
-So you'd be a millionaire? -
-I would. Right. In fact I'm not. No more back in the family. -
Tess looked puzzled at the boy.
-Why? -
-They left me broke. That's all. I can do only rely on my bank account. -
Tess nodded.
-Well ... then, you're beautiful ... and a half rich .. -
He nodded.
-And you are beautiful and ... -
The two looked into the eyes.
The tension went up.
-You better go. Starts to get cold. -
The two entered the house.
Tess sat down on the couch and Marcus did the same.
He took off her shoes.
- What are you doing? -
He began to massage her feet.
- Usually in the dressing room I hear you complaining about the shoes that make you sick. -
- Well ... who wants to be beautiful, some must suffer. -
The hands of Marcus gently massaged with energy the woman's feet.
- Is that better? -
- Much ...-she said, licking her lips.
Marcus stood up from the couch and headed for the kitchen.
After a while he returned with two glasses of red wine.
- Italian Wine ... -
Tess smiled.
- What do we need to drink? -
-Well ... the fact that I found a perfect housemate, and to our friendship. -
Tess lifted the cup.
They both sighed.
-Look after, I'll show you the house. -
- Oh .. thank you. -
- I imagine that the bathroom and kitchen you've already seen them. -
-Yes .. -
The two stood in silence to contemplate the fireplace.
-Do you have a girlfriend? -
He looked at her.
-No. I'm single-
-Strange. -
Marcus looked at her curiously woman.
-What is that weird? -
-That you do not have a girlfriend. Come on! You're a nice guy .. you have beautiful eyes, and a mischievous smile ... -
Marcus laughed, patting the woman's leg.
-No. I'm still searching for the right woman. Why this question? -
-Well ... we'd agreed. And when you were with your girlfriend, I'd be out. -
Marcus nodded.
-Well, thank you anyway Tess. If it ever happen, you'll be the first to know! -
Tess licked her lips.
Marcus sipped his glass of wine.
- I really have to to thank Marcus.
-For what? -
-You ... well, you see ... I'd just need to stay away from my house. -
Marcus stood up from the couch.
- Come I'll show you the house. - |
