The Precious Nanny | Cristiano Ronaldo

Chapter 51 - thank you and goodbye

I run away
when things are good
And never really understood
The way you laid
your eyes on me
In ways that no one ever could
-  Sorry, Halsey

"Sir! Good, you're back!" Andreia asserted as soon as I shut the door, my eyes caught her silhouette urging to reach me.

"Not now, tell Melissa to meet me in my office, is Junior in his room?" I ignored all her attempts to get me to stop and quickly headed upstairs.

I couldn't begin to describe the wave of relief that hit me the moment I left that studio hall, where the fashion event was taking place, I felt so much lighter like a huge weight had just been lifted off my chest. I could barely contain a smile, I'm not going to lie, it wasn't easy to convince Estephany I no longer wanted to carry on with our artificial relationship.

Or that I no longer have any interest in occasionally sleeping with her, it was truly like convincing a five-year-old to get a degree in biotechnology.

It took me hours to get her off of me, honestly, deep down I didn't think she would actually care, I mean, this past few weeks, we had barely exchanged a word, I won the champions league, I scored the winning penalty, and she didn't even bother to give me a call.

Not that I ever felt the need to hear her voice, let alone hear her give me regards on something another woman indirectly helped me accomplish.

I had first seen her standing across the room, chatting and laughing with another model. She really stood out from the crowd because she was one of the tallest in the room, unlike Melissa, she was at least six feet, which is almost as tall as me. I never realised it but any time I thought about the height difference between me and Mel, I became very delighted and in a totally not weird way, aroused, everything about her was adorable, especially the way she had to get on her toes to be able to reach my lips, or the way her body moulded into my hands every time I took her in my arms.

I now believe I want nothing of this world other than Mel between my arms, happy and content with me. My heart calmed down whenever she was near and the happiness I experienced in Italy will stay engraved in my mind forever.

I stood frozen in place as I glared at my soon to be ex girlfriend, she had thick long dark hair that fell down to the middle of her back like a wild glossy black waterfall. Her facial profile was strong, but her features softened when she laughed. I noticed that her legs were impossibly long and that her skin was a medium brown complexion that looked unbelievably smooth.

Estephany noticed me watching them both across the room, her face lighting up with a smile which quickly vanished once meeting my deep frown and narrowed eyes.

It was getting harder and harder to control my boiling anger, I didn't budge as several strangers approached me and bombarded me with questions, I didn't spare them so much as a glance, I came here with a sole purpose and I'm determined to get it done promptly.

"Hey!" her high pitched voice filled my ears and she took my face in her hands and tried to pull me down to meet with her lips.

But I quickly turned my face in the opposite direction.

"We need to talk," my voice was filled with resentment.

"Can we talk after? Now that you're here, we should take a few pictures," god everything about her pissed me off, how did I manage to drag this relationship for a whole year?

"No, it needs to be now! I won't stay for long." I yanked my hand out of her grasp, shaking the sudden urge to wipe it, that would probably be considered too far.
