April had gone to get the drinks as Luis José had asked, while he took the opportunity to go look for me, he was desperate, he wanted to give me an explanation that I honestly wasn't willing to listen to. I was very disappointed and also felt sorry for my sister.But luckily for him, I had left the bathroom and we crossed paths in the middle of the hallway. We stared into each other's eyes, I was about to cry from the helplessness and pain I felt not only for myself, but for my sister who was innocent of having a traitor as a husband.

—Ana Paula, please, we have to talk.

- Talk? And do you think there is anything to talk about after this? I have nothing to talk to you about, but the one I am going to talk to is my sister, because she doesn't deserve to have a scoundrel like you by her side.-No Please! Don't make a fuss, you can't do something like that, that would kill your sister.—And why didn't you think about that before getting into bed with me?

—I swear to you that I didn't know that you and April were sisters, she almost never talked about her family, after your parents opposed our marriage, she wanted to break away from everything.

—But did you need to know that? The point is that you were unfaithful to him and unfortunately he was with me. I have to tell you this immediately, I can't stay silent with something like this.

-No Please! You can not do it.

—And who is going to stop me? You?—Your sister has a heart condition.

Suddenly hearing those words from Luis José made me feel a chill throughout my body, I didn't know to what extent it was true, however, I was paralyzed.-What are you saying? How far does your ability to lie go? I don't believe you!

—Please, Ana Paula, what I am telling you is true, but this is not the time to explain it to you, I ask you to please allow me to talk somewhere else, if you want it can be tomorrow. And if after listening to me you still have the idea of ​​telling him everything about April, that's fine, I'll be the one to tell him.Just at that moment, April appeared, who had been looking for Luis José for a while, but when she saw that he was talking to me, she immediately smiled and said:

—Honey, but I finally found you, here's your drink, but it's good that I see you two talking. Sister, you had me worried.

The nervousness of both of us was inevitable, I think I felt that my face was lying and that at any moment April was going to discover everything.That courage that I felt a few minutes ago when I threatened Luis José with telling Abril the whole truth, immediately faded when I had her in front of me.

—Ana Paula, I'm talking to you, it seems like you're somewhere else.

—Sorry April, I suddenly felt a strong migraine and the truth is that I prefer to go to my room.

—No sister, how are you going to do that to your fiancé? He just arrived and is looking for you, so you better get out or I assure you that dad is going to drag you to the party.

Things couldn't have been worse, now to make matters worse Nelson had arrived, he was the last person I wanted to see at that moment.

And if that were not enough, Luis José, in a fit of jealousy, also added:

—Wow, sister-in-law, I didn't know you were engaged, but my wife is right, you shouldn't keep your boyfriend waiting.

It was a rather awkward moment in which I had no choice but to return to the party to greet Nelson.

At the end of the day, I didn't know if what Luis José had told me about Abril was really true. I had to talk to him about that another time, he was really living a real hell.When I entered the room my father immediately approached and took me by the arm while saying:

—Daughter, you finally show up, look, this party is for your birthday and also to celebrate your sister's return. But look who has a big surprise for you.

Nelson was standing in front of me with a huge bouquet of red roses, he immediately reached out to hand them to me, but the surprise didn't end there.

—My life, happy birthday, you don't know how much I wanted to see you.

She said her words so that everyone could hear her, but when she hugged me she said very quietly in my ear:

—Can we know where you were when you didn't answer my calls? We'll talk about that later.

When he separated from me and handed me the cheesy bouquet of red roses, he smiled again saying what would complete my woes:

—Well family, taking advantage of this special celebration for my princess, I want to give her the engagement ring and announce that our wedding date will be in a month.

I felt like I was about to fall flat, the last thing I expected was to receive news like that.

My parents screamed with happiness, since that was what they both wanted for their financial interests, Nelson injected a large amount of millions into dad's law firm, in addition to other businesses they had in common, which implied that, by marrying him, The profits were going to multiply and of course the economic income for the family was going to be much greater.

The expression on Luis José's face was equal to or worse than mine. I felt his gaze fixed on me.

April immediately ran out to congratulate me, without imagining the bitter pill she was going through.

—Congratulations sister, I'm so happy for you. But come darling so you can also congratulate Ana Paula.

He told Luis José, who approached me, and taking advantage of the moment he hugged me while saying in my ear:

— Tomorrow I'll call you so we can talk, everything I felt with you was not a lie.

Those words shook me, it was a sensation that I couldn't explain, on the one hand I felt like I hated him with all my might and on the other hand I wanted to run away with him without caring about anyone or anything.
