Chapter 73

Luz and Gerard are sitting on the front lawn watching Charlize reach for butterflies and birds. He does not stop caressing Luz’s belly, with her warm hand under her blouse.

I think it’s a little bigger. -It’s the same, the clothes don’t lie – she tells him laughing -. But soon it will look bigger. -When will we go to control? -I already have an appointment for next week – she tells him crossing her legs -. -Because I did not know? – Gerard tells her sitting in front of her with a frown – -Well… because the appointment is in the morning and you… you are busy in the mornings.

“Honey, I’ll never be busy if it’s about you,” he caresses her face. When you make an appointment with the doctor, he just calls Dorothy and tells her to add it to my schedule-he gives her a tender kiss and smiles at her-. I don’t want to miss anything about our baby.

-You’re wonderful – she takes him by the neck and forces him to stick his lips with hers – Gerard lays her down on the grass, without intensifying the kiss much, because he already knows what will remain.

Those feelings are the best, the ones you don’t want to forget and keep in your memory, the way you started your relationship, after all.

For Luz it’s the best thing that’s ever happened to her and she doesn’t want it to end, but nothing lasts forever.

Someone clears his throat and Gerard moves away from Luz a little, he looks up and sees his mother, her arms crossed and one of her heels hitting the floor repeatedly.

-What does this mean?! – she says in a shrill tone – I can’t believe they’re doing this in the garden of my house!

-According to you, mother, what are we doing? – Gerard tells him who stands up and helps Luz to do the same –

-They just need to take off their clothes, to end up like two indecent – she says upset and Luz laughs – Do you think it’s funny, girl?! Charlize could come and see them like this!

At that moment, Charlize appears excited because a butterfly landed on her hand, but when she sees her grandmother, she runs towards her to hug her.
