DOMINICK © [ENGLISH EDITION]

Chapter thrirty-two

Emily

Dominican Republic
Years ago...

I go back to school to continue being rejected by Wesley. Rejected, by the boy I love...

Wesley is the captain of the swimming team, he is beautiful, his physical attractiveness drives me crazy, his green eyes and his black hair under his ears and those crimson red lips and his skin is white, yes, the perfect boy but he has a problem: he lives me insulting in front of his friends, making me look ridiculous and like a fool and I still What I have for sure is that I must stop doing this; insist. No more Emily, don't insist.

Since I was little I have been very attached to my cousin, we were never alone anywhere and she knew how she felt about Wesley. She was my best friend.

"Mariza, what should I do to forget Wesly?" I ask, I put the burger in my mouth and bite her.

"You, let it happen and Emily already..." You are beautiful, he will soon realize what was lost.

"But I love him..." I say looking down.

"You, learn not to fall in love like that, you will regret it one day... There are many more boys in the world who will value that beauty you have. Don't let yourself be trampled by anyone. He just lives. Rate. And stay with the one who really loves you."

I listened to his words, it was true that more people would value me, but I never stopped being so fast. I think I will never do it.

I am the oldest of two sisters, I am Emily Pérez Contreras. I am currently 15 years old and I am madly in love with a boy who does not correspond to me. Typical cliché, I know. But what is going to be done to him?

My father is never at home because he is traveling all the time in all countries, he is a very famous businessman of a company he founded years ago, my mom also works as a teacher in high school and university at night. Dory, her name is my younger sister, is 13 years old and walks up and down with her friends all day. I spend time watching Netflix and talking to Mariza.

My aunt on my dad's side lives in Spain with the rest of the family that has progressed over the years due to large companies. Mariza stayed here to keep me company and on top of that I was the only one I liked in the family in this regard. I didn't trust anyone else to tell him my things. In a few months we would also go to live in Madrid, since I had no friends here because it wasn't the big deal. So I was eager to go to Madrid and spend more time with my cousin.

And yes, two years passed, still unable to overcome that I loved Wesley but ended up accepting that and my family and I went to Madrid, where I think it did us better. While there began what is called "my teenage life."

Days after moving and having everything ready, I decided to go to school. It was already necessary.

Dominick

My name is Dominick Larsson Navarro. I am 11 years old, I live in Barcelona. I am a child who tries to grow up normal and be a good son and brother. My brother's name is Adam, we are twins. I love my brother more than anything, he is my only friend, and for whom I would get into any problem. And well, we are quite naughty and he is the only one who helps me with my strange illness. I can't remember all the past events and it's because I have a short-term memory.

It's something annoying and at the same time interesting.

I was playing with my brother in the courtyard of the house. It was a very hot day, but my brother and I kept playing for anything.

"Come on Adam, let's go this way," I say in whispers as I hide in the bushes.

"Dominick and Adam!" Come here!" Dad called us with that hoarse and mysterious voice that intimidates us every time he speaks.
