Just expect the unexpected

Chapter 21

Catalina

First last day, Free Practice Day in Abu Dhabi, I wore a floral print ruffled mini red dress red and Hermes oran sandals

"Good Morning!" I said giving hugs to Carmen, Susie and Angela that they said good morning back

"Last first day of the season!" Susie said as I sat next to Angela

"I am so sad about that" I said acting really sad, I wanted the girls, except Carmen that she already knows, started realising that something's wrong with us

"What happened?" Angela asked curious "you don't seem good!"

"It's just... Lewis and I" I sighed "We're getting divorce"

"This guy will never grow up!" Angela said madly "Why?"

"He and myself think that we are better as friends" I replied and I fear fall from my eye

"Come here cutie!" Angela said and she gave me a hug, I started crying but I immediately stopped because I didn't want Carmen saying again that I have to tell Lewis about I am in love with him

I broke the hug sighing and wiping my tears

"It's the best decision" I said and I sighed

"You love him, don't you?" Susie asked me

"Yes" I said smiling "he means so much to me but if we ended up thinking that this is the best decision for us"

We watched the guys coming to us and I grabbed a paper towel to wipe away my tears

"Everything okay?" Lewis asked me kneeling in front of me

"Yes" I nodded

The girls sighed all together

George as well

"I just felt like I wanted to do that" George said laughing "What happened?"

"We are getting divorced but we'll announce after Sunday" Lewis said looking at all of them "We are better as friends"

"Your life your decision" Toto said and I tried to smile at him

The Free Practices started and Lewis was faster in FP1 and second faster in FP2

At night I was sitting in the balcony of the hotel looking at the beautiful lighting Abu Dhabi

"The time is 1 AM, you have to sleep" Lewis kissed my curly dark hair "it's too late"

"Go and sleep! I'll be fine" I said smiling, actually I wasn't feeling good, my stomach was a mess

"Good! Good Night Catalina" Lewis kissed my head and walked away to the bed

The next day I was sitting to Lewis' garage with his parents and brother

"I don't think that a divorce for you two is the best decision" Anthony said to my ear

"I think that it is" I replied "don't worry I don't want anything! Not money, anything!"

"I know about that! You are so good person that you don't care about the money" Anthony answered "my son loves you and he won't be able live without you"

"He'll be fine" I replied looking at the qualifying again

Max won the Pole Position and Lewis will start from P5, Lewis walked to the garage giving me a hug

Anthony smiled wickedly as he watched us

"I will go to my parents" I smiled and walked to Ferrari, my parents were sitting there with just Ana and Rodrigo

"¡Hola mi hermosa!" ("Hello my beauty") my dad placed a kiss on my forehead hugging me "¿Intentaste hablar con Lewis?" ("Did you try talking to Lewis?")

"¡Papá, decidimos algo con Lewis!" ("Dad, we decided something with Lewis!") I smiled at him

We talked for a while and then I walked back to Mercedes, Lewis ended with his interviews and he drove us back to our hotel

"Will you come tomorrow to the after party?" Lewis asked me as we lay on the bed

"I don't want... you can go" I replied

"If you don't go I won't go as well" Lewis said

"I will leave tomorrow night for Madrid, today is the last night" I turned smiling at him

Lewis kissed me gently

"Do you want?" Lewis asked me

"No" I turned my back to him and sleep

I was crying but without sound, I spent the last months with Lewis and now I have to say goodbye
