Sergio's point of view:

I woke up first, I'm better than yesterday, Raquel is still sleeping, I hear Paula running and laughing, oh she already woke up, she doesn't know I'm home, I'm watching time, it's 11:30 a.m., it's late! I have to wake Raquel up, but I'm afraid she'll yell at me if I wake her up, and besides, I don't know if she's forgiven me because I told her she's crazy, so I decide to stand up and say hello to Paula and Marivi. As soon as I open the bedroom door, Paula turns her head in my direction and is speechless.

Me: aren't you going to say hello to dad, sweetheart?

Paula: PAPAAAAAAAAAAA! (She screamed running towards me)

She throws herself into my arms, I lower myself to her level and lift her.

Paula: YOU COME BACK DADDY! I MISSED YOU SO MUCH !

She holds me tight in her little arms.

Me: you too I missed you so much my sweetheart.

Paula: but why do you have this bandage on your head, did a bad man hit you??

Me: no, no, he's not a bad man, it's... it's an accident.

Paula looks at me shocked.

Paula: a car accident!?

Me: no, no, a vase... the vase was on the cupboard and... it fell on me, yes that's it, it fell on me...

Paula: Are you in pain?

Me: no !

Paula: Dad it's not good to lie!

Me: yes you're right it's not good... yes I have a little headache.

Paula takes my head between her two small hands, and kisses my bandage. Oooh she's cute.

Paula: everything heals with the magic kiss! (She said smiling)

I smile, and I kiss her cheek, I'm going to melt with her cuteness.

Me: yes, now with your magic kiss, I'm sure it will heal!

I leave to sit on the sofa, Paula still in my arms.

Marivi: oh Sergio you came back! How are you my son?

Me: yes I'm fine, thank you Marivi...

Marivi cuts me off.

Marivi: well, I don't see that you're fine with this bandage on your head, what happened to you?

Paula: mamie Sergio has...

Paula tells the story I told her, to her grandmother, I'm doing everything I can to keep myself from laughing if they knew...

Marivi: where is Raquel?

Me: She's still sleeping...

Marivi: but it's late! It's 12 o'clock.

Me: I know... Paula can you help me wake up your mother?

Because I'm afraid to do it alone, of course I didn't tell Paula and Marivi that.

Paula: yes dad!

I go to our room with Paula.

Me: Paula, gently please. (I say in a whisper)

Paula nods and walks over to her mother.

Paula: mom wake up. (She says with a soft voice, caressing her mom's cheek)

Paula: Mom...

Raquel smiles and opens her eyes.

Raquel: Hello sweetie.
