Her Second Marriage With Mr. Cristian

“Mom, I just made two kinds of stuffing and cooked some soup, do you want to eat now or later?”

“Leave it for now, I’m not hungry yet, you guys eat first.”

– Then you can go. Eat somewhere and then rest. No need to come in the afternoon, – Pacino turned to Angelica and Manuel.

Gina was a little surprised, “Didn’t mother ask you to bring food?”

“-What kind of food? I only made two servings of dumplings.

Pacino did not expect Manuel and Angelica to have lunch with them in the hospital, so he suggested they leave.

However, hearing this, Gina almost jumped out of bed to hit her son. She wanted to ask him what was wrong in his head, since he was hunting his friends, but she had just undergone surgery; moreover, Manuel and Angelica were standing next to each other, so she restrained herself.

– Your friends came here specifically to take care of me. And couldn’t you cook food for them? So let’s do it this way. Leave the dumplings on the table and go with Manuel and Angelica to some bar. And come back when you have eaten. Nothing will happen to me.

“How can this work?” Pacino immediately objected, shaking his head, “I can’t leave you alone in the hospital.”

“Auntie, it doesn’t matter, we’ll go home and eat by ourselves and come back to see you tomorrow.”

Helpless, Gina could only acquiesce.

“All right, you guys be careful on the way, drive carefully.”

Only after they left did Gina give Pacino a grumbling look.

“Silly.”

Pacino did not respond. In fact, he did it on purpose. While they were making dumplings, Manuel asked him why not make them all at once, but he refused.

-I like Angelica, but for me the most important thing is that she is happy, and not that she becomes mine.

Manuel stopped talking after this.

Angelica and Manuel are gone.

She walked behind him and looked at him from behind with a slightly unfocused gaze.

Manuel was always so thin, and when he walked down the street, he always kept his back straight. She really liked him like that, but…. Lately, many people have told her that she is still young, so she is not able to deal with her feelings.

He had to try with others to understand his true desires. Should she do that? Angelica was convinced she was right, but when everyone around her said otherwise, she began to have doubts. What if she was wrong? Why were the opinions of others so at odds with her own?

Angelica was thinking about it, so she unconsciously slowed her pace and lowered her head. She did not expect Manuel to stop suddenly, so she crashed right into him.

Bang!

“What are you thinking about?”Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

A low male voice suddenly rang out above her, and Angelica unconsciously lifted her head, bumping right into Manuel’s deep-set eyes.

“Manuel?”

” – You are walking along the road and you are swaying somewhere in the clouds. What happens if you crash into someone else?

“I’m sorry.” Angelica lowered her eyes, “I just got a little carried away, I didn’t mean to.”

She would not have thought of all this along the way, but those thoughts suddenly struck her and completely caught her attention.

” – All right. After all, I was there. But don’t be so distracted when you walk down the road alone, it’s a dangerous thing.” Manuel tried to give her all the information he could about the dangers of walking alone, his voice was gentle: “Imagine what would happen if you also thought of something right on the roadway.

Angelica wanted to answer, but he interrupted her: ” -The outcome is impossible to predict. Therefore, we must behave very carefully on the road or in the car.

You can go back to your reflexes when you cross the street. And if you really need it so urgently, then it’s better to stop, think about everything and only then keep walking. Do you understand? having said that, Manuel reached out and rubbed her head.

I understood everything, having said that, he wanted to reach out to him to approach him, but when he stretched out his hand for a moment, he suddenly thought of what he had just thought, so his hand stopped in midair, giving up immediately.

This movement did not go unnoticed. Seeing this, Manuel remains confused and felt goosebumps.

” Let’s go. Where are we going to have lunch?”

-I don’t care – Angelica was still confused , so she automatically answered Manuel’s question.

“Are you tired?”

“What?”

“Shall I take you home?”

Home? Hearing this, Angelica squeezed the edges of her skirt with her hands. Manuel no longer wants to have lunch with her?

“Okay, then let’s go home,” – after a moment, Angelica nodded her head.

“You will have lunch at home. And then rest, school will start soon.”

“Manuel, are we going to the hospital tomorrow?

“Don’t you want to go?”

“No.” Angelica shook her head, “It’s just that Aunt Gina is a little strange.”

She had planned to come every day to take care of Gina, but after today’s conversation she lost her desire. Angelica was unable to fulfill Gina’s dreams that she and Pacino would be together, and then she would become her daughter-in-law.

Manuel paused in his stride, “Auntie just had an operation and it’s not uncommon for her to say strange things these days, so don’t take it personally.”

“But she asks me to go out with Pacino. Don’t I need to pay attention to those words?

After these words, Manuel suddenly stopped and Angelica looked at him with a serious face.

Manuel, do you also think like everyone else?

I’m still young and don’t have clear ideas yet? So you don’t want to be with me? Are you afraid that I will be disappointed when I face my feelings?

Why do you think such nonsense? Let’s go home, you need to rest, Manuel gently patted her on the head, not expecting her to talk about it suddenly.

– Don’t change the subject! I asked you a question.

– Calm down – Manuel took her hand and pulled her aside, seeing that she was determined.

Angelica’s eyes turned red; she knew she was exaggerating, but in the last few days everyone around her had told her about it, so she herself began to doubt everything.

“Go back to rest first, we’ll talk about this another time?”

Angelica said nothing, her eyes lowered and she looked sad for a long time before nodding.

On the way home, the situation in the car was tense. Angelica did not speak to Manuel and remained with her eyes closed, leaning against the window. Manuel did not disturb her and drove home in silence. Angelica opened her eyes only when they arrived.

Manuel, I understand your thoughts. I just want to clarify everything. If you think I am immature, I will do my best to grow up, having said that Angelica without waiting for a response from Manuel, got out of the car.
