Stupid Wife- Lembre-se de Nós (English Edition) by Nathalia Sodré.

Chapter 14:First Kiss

The weekend was incredible. On Sunday, Valentina, Leo and I went to the movies, where we spent almost the entire day. We watched two movies: One comedy and one animated, and it was just wonderful to spend that time with them. I'm starting to understand better how light everything seems between me and her and why I've been so in love with this woman for a long time.

Valentina is exceptional. Literally. Good wife, great mother, and a human being who does you good with ease. I could never have imagined this person in the past. She was totally insufferable, irresponsible, and immature. The years have really changed her.

A brief summary of these days: since we entered into a common agreement of coexistence, the atmosphere seems mild. Valentina and I decided to talk to our son about my amnesia. He was confused at first, but he's a very smart kid and he understood. He said he was willing to help me with the memories and was glad that I still loved him. How could it be otherwise? He's a wonderful child. I feel lighter after the conversation we had with the little one, I needed to take that step too. Who knows, maybe I can get my memories back?

My doctor and therapist agreed that it can help. And for quoting them, unfortunately my memory remains the same, but the therapy with Dr, Alice has helped me a lot. I'm feeling lighter.

- "Are you ready? Oh... Wow!" I turn quickly when I hear her voice, and a smile rises on my lips as I see her seem unresponsive. I like to know that I still do that to her, even after all the years of living together. I may not remember, but it's good for my self-esteem.

- "Did you like it?"

- "It's impossible not to like something about you. It is wonderful. I..." Valentina makes a few gestures with her hands and closes her eyes, sighing. She looks at me once more, before turning and walking away, almost running, away from me. I let out a small laugh, pleased by her reaction.

- "I got it right," I murmur to myself, looking in the mirror again. The tight outfit highlights all my curves in a sensual way, making me feel like a real womanizer.

Today is bachata day.

As has become customary, she was the one who brought me to work. We also communicate together with my students and people who work with me about my situation. I'm grateful to have her by my side in those moments. Valentina has shown herself to be a very important person, like a pillar in my life, and I will never know how to repay everything she is doing for me.

My feelings towards her are mixed at the moment, but one thing is for sure: I don't hate her anymore. That's a fact, I wouldn't even be able to. I'm starting to see the exceptional person that everyone around me said Valentina has become. Our relationship is different and has improved every day. I hope we will continue like this.

- "Luiza," Jake, the new receptionist, calls as soon as I get to my studio. I look at him and walk towards him, with Valentina on my heels. "Good morning, ladies."

- "Good morning."

- "Good morning, Jake. Did something happen?" I ask, leaning over the counter guy, and he nods in agreement before telling me what happened.

- "Diego called early, informing me that he couldn't come. Something happened at his daughter's school."

- "Something serious?"

- "I don't know, but he seemed pretty calm."

- "Hm, today is one of the days, when I really needed him," I murmur thinking about what alternative I have to continue today's classes. Of course, I can only guide my students, but I like to show in practice all the movements.

- "I can be your company, if you want," Valentina says standing next to me, and I quickly glances at her. Running my eyes over her body, I analyze the option. Her clothes don't seem to be bothersome: high heels, tight jeans, but that stretch well. The only thing that could bother her would be her shirt.
