Chapter 7 4

Everything was going well, far away the witches, there was only love in that mansion.

The weeks had passed slowly but happily. Luz’s belly was already a little bulge and Gerard was more than excited because that night was the engagement party, after that they had agreed on three more weeks for the wedding.

Matías had confirmed that he would arrive with his parents, because they did not want to miss that event, they were willing to talk to Luz to apologize and make themselves available for whatever was necessary, including taking care of their grandchildren so that she could study.

And with grandchildren they talked about the baby on the way and about Charlize.

Perhaps that information, after so long, is no longer useful. But more than five years ago it might mean that he wouldn’t have mourned his loss to such an extent.
