Chapter One

Jennifer had a terrible night.

Her mind was going crazy and she didn't sleep at all. She felt desperately lost and confused. She missed Bruce with all her heart, but at the same time, she was mad at him. She still didn't know what he was really thinking. Even worse, she didn't know about his feelings and that was the most difficult and painful thing to deal with for her.

She remembered all the moments she shared with Bruce and couldn't believe how it all ended. After all, it was all just a dream...

When she saw the sunrise, she decided it was time for her to leave this place. Time to leave all her memories of Bruce behind her. Forever. She was never going to see him again anyway. A new life was waiting for her back home.

After all, this is my fault. I played with fire. I thought I was too smart and wanted him to understand MY point of view. Yes, if Bruce wants to buy his wife from East Europe, so be it! Who am I to tell him what to do after all? It's his life, not mine.

Jennifer went outside to enjoy the view one last time. She saw the beach, and the exact location where a few hours earlier, she had realized she was in love with Bruce. She closed her eyes, and remembered how strong and invincible she felt when she knew she loved him.

She remembered the sweetness of his touch and the kindness in his eyes.

She remembered how easy it was for him to turn her world upside down, and to make her do whatever he wanted.

Jennifer couldn't stop the tears filling her eyes and she cried with all her heart, unable to accept that she had lost the only man she ever loved with such passion.

Suddenly, she felt a hand touching her shoulder gently. Her heart jumped in her chest. She prayed and hoped. Could it be Bruce? Is he coming back for me?

Full of hope, she turned around, only to see Maria, kindly smiling at her.

“I know what happened last night, my dear... I was around by chance, when I heard you and Mr. Wilson having an argument. The two of you seemed so happy on the beach having your picnic dinner, I'm so sad for you my dear.” Maria said, gently touching Jennifer's cheek with her hand.

“You mean... you were watching us... the whole night?”

“No my dear, don't worry. I was busy with my own date.” Maria gave a wink to Jennifer, trying to make her smile.

Jennifer laughed, wiping her tears with the tissue Maria was handing to her. “Ha-ha... May I ask with who?”

“With Jack!”

“You mean, the chauffeur?”

“Yes!”

They both burst into laughter.

“We've been married for thirty years, and we've had ups and downs, you know. Just like you and Mr. Wilson. It's only a misunderstanding okay; it's not the end of the world! You can fix this my dear!”

“I wish, Maria, I wish, but Bruce has a strong personality, and I think he's really mad at me.”

Maria opened her arms and invited Jennifer to give her a hug.

“Come on, my dear, stay positive okay? I'm sure he really likes you deep inside.”

“How do you know?”

“Because you're the only girl I saw him bringing here... I never saw him with anyone except you in this house. I'm sure you're very special!”

So it was true, then.

“In that case, he must be really mad at me. I think I disrespected him.”

“Let's talk about that later, will you? Jack and I are flying back to New York with you. Take it easy, okay?”

***

It was 11:00 AM when Jennifer knocked at the door of her grandmother's home.

“Jennifer, honey! How are you? You look terrible, what happened? Something wrong with Bruce?”

“Yes, Grandma. You were right, it was a bad idea. It's over. And I'm fired.”

Margareta took Jennifer in her arms and prepared lunch for her. Then, over a cup of coffee, they spent the next two hours talking about what happened with Bruce. Of course, Jennifer avoided going into the spicy details.

At 3:00 PM, Jennifer texted Benny. She wanted to know if everything was fine for him. Very quickly, they started to exchange several messages.

“Hope you're doing fine at work without me. You will have to, anyway. I'm not coming back.”

“What? Loving Thailand too much? Found your prince charming on the beach? ;)”

“It has to do with something that happened on the beach yeah. I'm fired. Can you pack my things?”

“Wow, are you serious? Fired? OMG, I'm so sorry!”

Jennifer gave him her home address, plus further instructions to help him with his job.

Completely exhausted by her sleepless night, she decided to take a nap, and went to sleep in her grandmother's room for an hour and a half.

She woke up suddenly when her phone rang. It was Maria. The two of them had exchanged their numbers on the way back from the beach house, to New York.

“Honey, this is Maria. Do you feel better?”

“Hi Maria, yes I just took a nap. How are you?”

“Good. Listen, Jack and I want to take you out tonight. We felt bad for you this morning when we dropped you home. Do you have any plans?”

“Oh, thank you that's really sweet, but aren't you guys supposed to be at Bruce's mansion? ”

“Not tonight, my dear. So, are you busy?”

“Not really. Where do you want to go?”

“Surprise! Where are you? We will come to pick you up at 6.”

Jennifer gave Maria her grandmother's address and went online to check her emails, waiting for Maria to pick her up.

***

At exactly 6:00 PM, Maria called Jennifer on her cellphone to let her know she was waiting in front of the building.

Jennifer got dressed, kissed her grandmother and went downstairs. When she saw Bruce's black limousine, she stopped. Jack was in the driver's seat, his wife next to him. When she saw Jennifer, Maria jumped out of the car.

“Jennifer! Over here!”

“Hey! Hum... are we going out with Bruce's limo? I don't feel very comfortable doing that, you know. Maybe I should follow you in a taxi.”
