"--then you add the vegetables when you're done frying it" she taught me the third recipe for the day.

"Excuse me aunt" I smiled at her and turned around to get my phone.

"Tesoro I need you" his gruff voice rang into the phone and I turned to aunt to find her whisking the eggs, I can't just leave her like this

"Give me thirty minutes Raul, I'm still busy with your mom"

"Okay hurry up" I hung up and tucked my phone at the back of my pocket.

"Was that Raul?" She asked and I nodded with a smile. "How didn't I get to meet you first?" I chuckled and shook my head.

"The first Isn't always the best aunt, the most important thing is that we found each other besides what made you choose Catalina?"

She sighed and started mixing the other ingredients while I made the sauce for the pasta.

"I guess I saw her as perfect. She was smart, beautiful, successful and the most important not Nickolai's type of woman, I guess Raul must have told you about his past" she looked at me and i nodded.

"I thought Catalina would have been the one to bring my baby back to how he use to be but I guess i was blinded by my eagerness to heal him so quick and make him forget about all that had happened to him I didn't get a chance to actually get to know her so well maybe I would have seen through her fake smiles and laughter"

I listened to her quietly with one thing in my mind. Why does she act like that? What's her motive and what will be the benefit of her fake personality?

After we were done cooking I hurriedly left the kitchen up to our room to find him sitting casually on the couch.

"Raul?" I called and he looked up from his phone. "Good thing you're here, C'mon hurry up and get ready we're going out"

My brows furrow at the sudden change in plan. Today's supposed to be our resting day

"Why?"

"Mamá's birthday is tomorrow and we need to go shopping to get all we would need to plan a surprise for her" my eyes widened at the sudden information.

"Why didn't you tell me before now?" I hurriedly walked to the closet and took a yellow summer dress hanging up.

"I would have tesoro but it slipped my mind" he scratched the back of his neck and i went to freshen up. Not bothering about my looks I applied my gloss and perfume and left with him.

"Is that why the house is empty?" I asked as we got into the car.

"Yea, the moment we realized it's her birthday tomorrow, Joanna and Mia went out to start making some other arrangements" he explained and I nodded in understanding.

We arrived at a mall and he came around to get me out of the car. I wrapped my arm around his as we strode in.

"Where do we start from?" I poked my bottom lip in confusion.
