"Sofia, oh my god! how are you?" Amelia opened the door and gave Sofia a welcome hug as she saw her. It's been quite a long time since Amelia saw Sofia the last time. They both didn't really had time to do something since Amelia has been very busy the past months but Sofia is updated with almost everything that is happening in Amelia's life because Amelia messages her often and calls her often about things that are happening right now.

Sofia smiled as she responded to Amelia's question, "I've been alright, how about you?" Amelia and Sofia went to the kitchen after Sofia took off her shoes.

"Could been better but that's how life is" stated Amelia while opening her fridge.

"Would you prefer tea or coffee? or maybe a soft drink? "asked Amelia as she searched through the kitchen cabinets for some drinks that she could offer Sofia with.

"Tea would be great." responded Sofia while seeing that Amelia has chosen the chamomile tea out of the cabinet, knowing that it's Sofia favourite tea sort.

"You can take a seat at the table over there." said Amelia as she was making the tea and other, less significant, things.

It was undoubtedly unexpected for Sofia to be as shocked as she was by what Amelia had revealed during the conversation they both had. Sofia was so shocked that she could hardly believe what Amelia had been telling her about what had happened over the previous few weeks. "There is no way he said that," Sofia exclaimed. Although they had only been conversing for 20 minutes, the two women gave the impression that they had been talking for hours by holding the tea cup with both hands and resting their elbows on the table and saying. "Oh my god." every two seconds.

"And you just let it slide"? As Sofia heard Amelia handle those situations, she remarked, "God, love is certainly turning some people blind and you are a perfect example for it."

"Yeah." replied Amelia to Sofias accusations. Amelia is truly blind for love, so Sofia is absolutely correct in her judgment. Amelia just can't leave Richarlison because she still has hope that he will change his bad habits and start behaving better. Every other woman would have done so long ago. She still believes that things will improve, but that hope is fading every day.

"Sofia, I know you only want the best for me but I don't think you really understand me. I have been together with him since 7 years and knowing that I have been together with him for such a long time makes the things harder to end. Our first marriage anniversary is coming up soon and so is also Joana first birthday. If I will end the things now everything will be overwhelming." Amelia uttered the last words before softly closing her eyes and beginning to think. It won't be good to consider ending this right away, but it won't be better to push it off and promise to do so later. She is being destroyed by it, and she is unsure how long she can carry on. She loves Richarlison but does she love him enough to stay by his side?

Emerson couldn't help but shake his head as he watched Richarlison take his fourth tequila shot. "Bro, I honestly think you messed up big this time."

Ignoring Emerson's comment, Richarlison poured himself another shot.

"How does your wife handle your shit? I mean, she's a strong one for putting up with all this. You should be thankful she's still by your side because any other woman would have left you," Emerson questioned, concerned.
