Chapter 2

Ana slowly gets up from bed, everything is spinning a little, she turns around and sees Alvaro sound asleep, my God, what have I done? She thought, she looked for her clothes and put them on quickly, she took her cell phone and went to the bathroom, it was daytime, surely her mother was worried about her, she took the charger out of her purse and plugged it in, she waited a few minutes while it turned on and indeed she had more than twenty missed calls from her mother, she took the phone and entered the messaging to write to her, when a voice note arrived.

—Honey, where are you, Alvaro had a medical emergency, you know he is a doctor and he couldn't make it to the restaurant, call me, I'm worried about you.

He couldn't make it, so who was the man sleeping peacefully in the next room, Ana gathered all her things and left the room stealthily, the man had taken her to his apartment and what apartment was a perfectly decorated two story pent house, but she had no time to admire it, she had to get out of there as soon as possible, once outside the building she took the first cab she passed and ran on her way home.

When she arrived home her mother was in a state of total crisis, she was crying and talking on the phone with the police, in the house was a friend of her mother's and they both shouted when they saw her.

—She's back! —Oh Ana, thank God," she said before hugging her, but then realizing all the hours of anguish she had lived through, she began to scream at her. —WHERE WERE YOU? I CALLED EVERYBODY, I HAVE BEEN ANXIOUS ALL NIGHT, I ALMOST DIE OF A STROKE, YOU WERE NOT WITH THE DOCTOR SO TELL ME WHERE YOU WERE RIGHT NOW," she shouted angrily.

—Mom, first of all I'm so sorry, you have to calm down a little bit, things just happened, but it was nothing bad, I went to that appointment for you in the first place.

—But what appointment? He never made it, he had an emergency operation.

—That's what I don't understand, I went to the appointment and we were both together, I arrived and Alvaro was waiting for me like you said.

—Impossible, she is Alvaro's mother and he couldn't go to the appointment," she says pointing to the woman accompanying her.

—It's true Ana, my son is still in the hospital attending an emergency.

This can't be, she thought.

On the other hand Alvaro woke up in his bed and little memories of the previous night came to his head, he did not remember many things and that was strange since he was used to drinking, the girl was nowhere to be found, so he got ready and went to the office, when he arrived at the building his assistant was waiting for him with a smile from ear to ear, something unusual in her, but he did not pay too much attention.

—Please bring me breakfast and my coffee," he ordered, closing the office door behind him.

A few minutes later her assistant returned with her order.

—And how did it go last night? —I asked him, something that had never happened before.

—What do you mean?

—The party she had last night, I'm sure she had a great time," he answered smiling.

—Why are you asking that, I don't understand.

—Sir, everyone already knows, you uploaded all the pictures to your social networks, I thought you were waiting for everyone to know about your new relationship.

—Leave me alone —I respect, once his assistant left the office he took his cell phone and started to check his social networks, it was full of photos and videos with the girl from last night, apparently they went to a disco, then they went out to eat fast food from the street, walked along the beach and drank with a group of people he had never seen in his life, he had never gone to the extreme of drinking and not remembering anything, this was crazy.

An incoming call rang, it was his mother.

—Hi mom," he answered.

—I'm so sorry about your date, the stupid woman flatly refused to go, this is my fault but don't worry, we'll find the right one.

—What are you saying?

—I know you are upset but there are millions of fish in the sea Alvaro, I will find another girl for you and she will be the right one, I hope you can forgive me for yesterday's jilting my love, talk to you later," he said before hanging up.

If my mother's date didn't show up last night, then who the fuck was this girl, he thought as he looked at the pictures on his cell phone before deleting them from the networks, hopefully there were only a few people who saw them.

2 months later.

Ana managed to get the job she was waiting for, she is in charge of keeping the files tidy and doing work that the higher ups ask her to do, luckily she only works a few hours a day, it is little money but it helps her to pay the bills and enlarge her resume, today is the weekend and she will take advantage of it to go to the doctor, she has not been feeling well lately, she has headaches and dizziness constantly, her mother tells her that it is tiredness and stress but she does not agree, she feels different.

The doctor examines her and does an echo.

—Well Ana everything is perfectly fine, you have a very strong baby about seven weeks old.

A baby...

—I will prescribe you

A baby...

I will prescribe the vitamins and everything you should take and we will see you in a month to continue your follow—up, but don't worry, everything looks normal, the discomforts should be over, they are normal during the first three months of gestation.

The doctor speaks but Ana doesn't really pay attention, she is in shock, a baby, how can it be? and she remembered, two months ago and that crazy night with that stranger, she had become pregnant, what would she do now?

Ana arrived home and luckily her mother wasn't there, she didn't want to talk to anyone, much less about what she had just found out, she was pregnant by a complete stranger, what if she had an abortion? No, that was a sin, that baby was not to blame, she had to look for that man and tell him the truth.

While Ana was thinking about what to do with her new situation, Álvaro's life had taken a radical turn, she didn't know how or when, but now he was engaged to the daughter of one of her mother's friends, so much was the insistence that he agreed to go on a date, they got along well and the dates continued, Then his mother organized a party and without knowing that it was his engagement, it was practically an ambush, the press was there and took pictures for the national newspaper, everyone was celebrating and congratulating Alvaro was there and with no other alternative he had to go with the flow, for his family and the girl's reputation, what had he gotten himself into? , He liked her but not enough to make her his wife so quickly.

The days went by and Ana continued without making a decision, that morning she went downstairs to have breakfast before going to the company, while she drank a glass of juice she sat down at the table without imagining what she would see, the newspaper was on the table and on the front page appeared the face of that stranger "Alvaro Soler engaged", it could not be that man with whom she spent the night and he was about to marry another woman, but that was not all, he was the owner of the company where she worked, that is to say her boss.
