Margot

Helena:

"What did you think?" - Francy questions.

Today was already completing the 3rd week,after the day I went to choose the dress and now it was the last adjustments.

"Perfect,I might have to loosen it a bit,I think I've put on weight again."

"No problem,it is tight because of the pins,but if you want it looser,I will do it and next week you can get married already."

"Thank you" - I smile happily and at the same time nervously.

"You've never been married?"

"No...can you tell?"

"Yes, you are very nervous."

"I only live like this now, it's an endless agony."

"Try to calm down, it's an agony and in the end everything works out, you'll be beautiful, next to a good man who loves you, there's nothing better than that."

"You're right."

I smile relieved,then I take off the dress and soon Francy makes the last adjustments,I put it on again and it was perfect,so I took the dress home,where the maid would wash,dry,iron and leave it stored until my wedding day.

I get home and go straight to eat something,I give the dress in the hand of the girl and go to rest a bit,minutes later Matew arrives.

"Good evening my love,how are you today?" - Gentle question.

"Fine and tired,but tell me,how are you?"

"I always look better when I see your beautiful cute face."

"Cute means I'm fat."

"It means you are, and you are beautiful, perfect, healthy, and yummy as hell."

I smile at his ever kind speech,he was truly a dream.

"Thank you my love,there is no one like you."

"I hope not. Before I forget,after the wedding we have an event to go to,I would really like you to go,I would love to show my wife to everyone,but if you don't want to there is no problem with that,you need to have a quiet life."

"What kind of event?"

"It will be a charity masquerade ball,so we can give donations to charity."

"Interesting,I will like to go."

"Great!" - He says excitedly - "We'll be buying you a new dress soon,it needs to be really beautiful."

"We don't need to impress anyone..."

"Not really, but you're already impressive, you need something to match your beauty."

"You've convinced me."

He kisses me and caresses my face calmly and tenderly,I liked the attention and care he always gave me,I felt very important.

"May your days by my side be the best and may nothing be able to keep us apart and make us unhappy."

"Why are you saying this?"

"Victor hired a woman,they made a deal for her to get into my company,we didn't know anything about it and when we went to find out,she was passing our secret information to him."

"He has no scruples,instead of leaving us alone,he keeps stalking and causing harm."

I was angry, this man is nothing like the sweet man I knew, how did he manage to show only kindness and hide his hateful, rotten, revengeful, hateful side from me? It was scary to know that people could be like that,show to be one thing and deep down be something totally different.

"That's still not the worst part..."

"Is it even worse?" - I ask scared.

"Yes,she was also embezzling money from the company,she was arrested when the accountant saw that the accounts were not correct,that there was more money in the company account,but the amount was way down."

"That's horrible!"

"Yeah,the good part is that they froze her bonuses and she will have to return everything she stole,but the way everything was discovered and realizing that we are vulnerable for trusting people,I am not so well and deep down I am afraid that Victor will try something worse,but not against me but against you and our baby..."

"Wow." - I smile and run my hand over my big belly.

We saw the sex of the baby two weeks ago,it was a girl,we would call her Margot,she was just a few weeks away from being born and I was so excited for this big fact. In such a short time I started to love this baby more than myself, and the more I knew about her, the more I loved this little being that was growing inside of me.

"Yeah,our beautiful princess" - hugs me.

Matew was also very excited about the baby,little by little he also got more affection for Margot,we chose the name together and were already furnishing her room the way we wanted,I left some walls with the blue fabric that I already had,we hired a girl to make cute drawings in baby pink and bubblegum pink,there were many flowers,butterflies,hummingbirds and cute animals,the room was beautiful and I was very happy.

After some time hugging me,he massages my feet,when I finally relax more,he goes to bathe,after he leaves it's my turn,after I come out already dry,I put on a comfortable outfit just like him and lie down beside him.

I breathe his good man smell and felt very safe in his arms,after this news given by Matew,I was afraid too,I didn't know Victor and he didn't look anything like the Hugo I knew.

"Your heart sped up,what happened?"

He was very thoughtful,observant and always analyzed me thoroughly,he liked to know what I thought,what worried or distressed me,he also always said words that calmed me down and made me more confident,he always said the right things to keep me calm.

"I hope for better days...days of peace and without Victor tormenting us,as he walks"

"We will get him in and keep him in prison soon,I promise."

"I know you will." - I smile passing confidence to it - Thank you for taking care of us."

"Thank you for giving me joy,a daughter,a real home,because home to me and come home and know that I have you here waiting for me,is the security and hope that transmits and that affection that exudes,I am grateful to you,who changed my sad days."

I kiss her mouth, soon we were taking off our clothes and making love, then we slept embraced and tired.
