SINGLE MOTHER AND CEO

At Sofia’s apartment, the Narrator:

-Excuse me, please, Sofia! -Sheyli pleaded, the last thing she wanted was to make her friend angry. They never argued.

-Why did you allow Rafael to get close to my children? -Sofia asked angrily, annoyed and looking at her friend with hostility.

-It was accidental! -I explained, “He together with Martin Elias, Jose David’s brother, were looking for a bathroom when they entered the office,” she moaned, regretting the mistake made, because it was something that she demanded with great emphasis, not to let anyone see the triplets.

-Don’t cry, Sheyli, it’s not that bad! -Sofia exclaimed, trying to calm her down and regretting having spoken like that, and even trying to calm herself down as well.

-But when that man came out, he focused on the twins and your children were the ones who insisted on having their pictures taken with him,” she argued.

-All right, calm down Sheyli, please, I’m sorry! -Sofia pleaded, coming up to her and hugging her.

-I let them use your bathroom, because I didn’t want to go out and leave the twins alone,” her friend replied again, very hurt with this one.

-Sheyli, this is as far as this conversation goes,” said Sofia, “I hope it won’t happen again. Now, I have to think what to answer to my trio of kings when they ask me, because I’m sure they will,” she commented, looking at her mother and her two friends.

-As I told you, we must find out everything about Rafael Corner! As soon as possible,” said her mother, determined to find out the truth about this situation that has arisen.

-That’s enough of that! And everybody go to sleep! -We leave at five in the morning for the airport!

-Perfect! -replied the twin sisters in duo, causing the four of them to smile.

The four of them each walked to their rooms, where they locked themselves in to evaluate the events of that night separately.

Sofia kept Rafael’s face in her memory, as if he were with her. She tried to search her memories for something that would give her the certainty that he was that man, but everything was very blurry. No matter how hard she tried, she had no clear memory of that night.

For her part, Sheyli was hurt and resentful for the way Sofia treated her, they had always been friends, companions and treated each other more like sisters than friends. In addition, she was very upset by the presence of Martin Elias, Reyner’s son, who is the only thing he has left over, otherwise he is perfect.

Meanwhile, Shayla continued to feel attracted to the lout Jose David, who supposedly brings Sofia head over heels. At no time, he has focused his attention on her and that is what hurts her the most, because she senses that she is unfortunately falling in love.

Meanwhile, in Rafael’s car:

-What are you going to do, Rafael? -Martin Elias asked me. Bringing me out of my thoughts, because I had become silent and totally distracted.

-I honestly don’t know! -I answered overwhelmed, “this is not an easy subject to talk about, how do I interrogate Sofia? What do I ask her? I don’t have the confidence to ask her who is the father of your children?

-You’re right! But what do you feel? Would you like to be the father of her triplets? What would you do if it were true? -Martin Elias asked me.

-I was her first man! -I confessed to my friend. “She was a virgin and many times I questioned her, how was she able to give her purity to anyone? She didn’t even know my name,” I asserted.

-But you told me she was drugged and drunk,” Martin Elias replied, “You are not being tolerant or understanding with Sofia,” he reproached me, adding, “I remember you suspected she had been drugged.

-If that were so, she would have reported it, don’t you think? Why didn’t she do it? -I reproached him, weighing the situation.

-You’d have to be inside her to know exactly what happened to her or why she didn’t? It must be very humiliating and embarrassing for a woman to live through a trauma like that,” Martin challenged me, trying to get me to understand and consider Sofia.

-Do you remember exactly what happened? -Try to relive what happened that night, from the moment you got involved,” he recommended, which made me reflect, to evaluate the situation more objectively.

-I’m going to do it! -I replied, “Thanks, my friend! I’m not going to do anything until I’m sure what my decision will be in this case,” I answered, adding, “Can you get me the videos of that night?

-Of course I can! -Martin Elias said with a smile.

Let’s go to the Disco, to talk to Ivan! He’ll tell you if he has it on hand, so you can watch it at once or take a copy or he’ll take care of getting it to you,” he clarified.

That night, I could not get the file immediately; according to the young man in the system, it was a rigorous job, which required time because he had to review the backups of previous years, which he kept in the clouds.

-Whether it’s at the bottom of the ocean, in heaven or in hell itself, I need you to find me that video,” I requested, handing a gift in dollars to the disco worker, who promised to look for it and get it to me as soon as possible.

I left Martin Elias at his place of work and went to the mansion. When I arrived at the mansion, I found my mother in the company of Mirelys Zambrano, a very beautiful woman, elegant, but stalker, who does not call my attention despite her beauty.

-Rafa, my love, how are you! -She shrieked, disturbing my eardrum, “It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you! -she commented. As soon as she saw me, she ran to meet me, hanging on my neck and kissing me very close to my lips.

-Hello, Mirelys! -I answered, taking her hands off my neck. I recognize that she is an extremely beautiful and graceful woman, with a spectacular body, but I am not attracted to her, maybe because my mother wants to impose her on me as a partner.

-Son, I invited Mirelys to spend a few days here at the mansion, while we are in the city,” my mother confessed, in a singing and melodic voice.All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

-Good! This is your house too, mother. You can invite whoever you want,” I answered, walking towards the terrace, where I could hear the laughter and shouts of my nephews and my sister.

This image, of seeing my sister, brother-in-law and nephews playing, made me long for my own family. As I thought about this, I pulled my cell phone out of my pants pocket and stared at the triplets on my screen. All four of us have the same smile.

In a split second I made a decision, I’m going to approach Sofia to get a DNA test with the triplets and get out of doubt, for now, I don’t want anyone to know about my family. I searched my cell phone for her number and called her….

-Riiin, riiin!

-Riiin, riiin!

-Sofia? Is that you?
