Chapter 115: He's Mine!

The next day, January 1st, we woke up when the baby wanted. He's my alarm clock and I wake up automatically when he's hungry.

For the first time, he slept between us in the bed. Among all the things we brought, we didn't bring a crib for him, so we put him between us, being careful not to disturb him. It seems he didn't like it; he moved a lot, but eventually fell asleep.

So we fed him, and Dubois took care of him while I went to the bathroom. We agreed to meet everyone else at the pool. There was breakfast served, and we would take the opportunity to get to know Ricardo's girlfriend better.

When we went down, everyone was there. The center of the conversation was the party, the show, but I felt that Margaret was dying to interrogate Ricardo's girlfriend. She was very nice but seemed to feel like I did at first, so I approached and talked to her, also introducing her to my son. She smiled and petted him.

I liked her! And so did my son; he couldn't stop smiling. So I gave her the thumbs up, and Ricardo smiled and winked at me.

We were all in casual clothes, though I felt a little, just a little self-conscious about the stunning body of Sebastian's companion. She was wearing a tiny bikini, and her body was truly impressive. If I see Dubois turning to look at her, I'll kill him!

That woman is an idiot. She's with Sebastian but keeps eyeing Ricardo and Dubois. That's annoying! So I got serious and frowned at Dubois, who just smiled and kissed me, then put his arm around my back.

I was so focused on making sure that woman didn't look at Dubois that I didn't notice Sofí talking to the guy from last night, sitting on two chairs by the pool. Her parents also came over and joined our group; we are a fun and large group.

I feel that Hana is annoyed by Sebastian's companion's looks at the other men in the group, as if she's deciding which one is the best. I can't blame her; they're all attractive, even the older ones.

They're tall, in good shape, and wearing shorts, so I understand her. Of course, she'd like to be with all of them, but they all have someone. Only Sebastian doesn't, and she's not taking advantage of that. What an idiot!

So I grabbed Dubois' hand and sat next to him, making it clear: He's mine!

Margaret received a call. It was Manuel Escobar, the Spaniard, and she handed it to me. It seemed he wanted to greet me. "Hello Manuel, how are you? Happy New Year."

"I'm doing well."

"He's growing so much, you should see him. When are you coming?"

"We're waiting for you. I'm glad you're well. See you soon." I handed the phone back to Margaret and looked at Dubois. He was furious.

"It was Manuel," I said.

"I know," he said in a low voice.

"Are you going to keep this up, Dubois? He's a friend, let it go."

"I hope you invite him to the wedding so he can be furious seeing you marry me."

"Let it go, I'm going to see Sofía."

"Yes, I'm worried about her. She needs to be careful with those boys; she's just a kid."

"She's almost 16, Dubois. She'll be 16 soon."

"She's still a kid and she's my little sister. I'm worried."

"Alright, Dubois, I'll talk to her for a bit. Calm down."

"I'll go with you."

"Will you be like this with Rosa Alexandra?"

"Of course, I know men's intentions."

"Luckily, you didn't have to fight my dad for me."

"My intentions were honorable."

"Yes, of course."

I reached where Sofía was and she was very happy chatting with the young guy. My sister is beautiful and tall, and right now she is glowing. The guy next to her clearly likes her. They were talking about their Excel course and other things from their studies, so I left them and brought Dubois with me.

We went back to the table where a game of charades was proposed. The first one to go was Sebastián's friend, and she wasted no time in being sexy so all the men would look at her, which annoyed Hana.

However, Hana didn't say anything and the game continued. It was very fun, especially when Margaret and Alfred went, as they wanted to do it as a pair and seemed to communicate telepathically. That's what you call a well-synced couple.

So Dubois wanted to try it with me, and we did the charades as a pair. The result was that we weren't as in sync as Margaret and Alfred, but we weren't too bad either.

Then Hana and Eduardo tried it, and there was an absolute understanding between them. It's incredible. They have been a couple for many years, and it took them a lot to reach that level of understanding and love, but they achieved it. That's how I want my relationship with my partner to be.

Of course, Ricardo and his partner struggled to guess the charades. They are just starting, but we will all help them achieve it, just like everyone helped Dubois and me.

When I was near Ricardo, I said, "She can come to the wedding, she can come with you."

"We'll see, Valeria," he replied.

"I like her, she's a good one, just a bit shy. She reminds me of myself."

"You two don't look much alike, Valeria, you're one of a kind. But I have hope of finding what Michael found."

"You will, my friend, you'll see."

"I hope so, Valeria."

"Just give yourself the chance, and the effect will be great. Go on, give your nephew some love." I handed him the baby, who was awake and smiling.

"He's smiling at you, maybe you're his favorite uncle."

"Don't let Sebastián hear that," he said, making a shushing gesture.

His girlfriend approached and also showed affection to the baby, who smiled at her. He likes her.

"Alejandro likes you."

"I like him too, he's adorable."

"Do you like kids?"

"Yes, probably because I'm an only child."

Ricardo looked at me, and I suspected he was saying, "I know what you're doing!" I hope it works. He is as lonely as Dubois was. He deserves to be loved, and I hope it happens.

As the evening fell, the group dispersed. Some couples started leaving, and Dubois indicated that we should go too. We said goodbye to everyone. I agreed with Ebony that she would talk to me before leaving to finalize some details about the wedding dress. It's so close! I'm so excited!

For now, I think my sister made a conquest because she asked if she could invite the guy, her new friend, to our house and the wedding. I said yes.

That's why Dubois frowned. "If he comes to the house, you need to keep an eye on them or tell Cristina and Rosalía to watch them."

"They've been talking about the laptop you gave her, the one that just came out, and they're excited to make a video of a singer they both like. It's nothing, Dubois."

"Keep an eye on it, Valeria."

"Good thing we had a boy. If it were a girl, imagine that."

"I would protect her a lot, for sure. Let's go home, all of us. It's a new year, the best one yet. We have friends, family, and an amazing baby."

Our baby agreed, smiling at his dad.
