My Dark Past

                       Prologue

I'm still on my hospital bed. I just barely gave birth to a wonderful little girl. I would have liked to be the one that would raise her but I knew that death was already on his way to seize me. I knew that this was not the first time that I was going to die because my heart had stopped beating years ago but I still fear disappearing knowing that this time, there is no return.

The door opened and the doctor entered. He wanted to know what name I had chosen for my daughter and I knew very well how I wanted to name her...Kataluna.

Kataluna Sandobal, I told him.

He was so surprised by the name I had just gave to him,I had the impression that his eyes were coming out of their orbits.

Sandobal, he whispered.

I knew very well that the entire city was afraid of Christopher Sandobal. He was such a mysterious man. He was exiled in a forest so far from the city. I was lucky to meet him. It was my birthday and my sister had taken me to dinner in the fanciest and most expensive restaurant of the city. It is there that I saw him for the first time in my life, sitting in the corner eating his bloody chops. His shocking beauty and rich posture attracted me but his bluish green eyes had something so mysterious almost dangerous pushing people who approached him. Being a bold person, I ignored his eyes and took place in front of him.

Hi, I told him.

He looked at me, confused, arching his head to the side and finally spoke to me.

-What do you want?, he said

What an arrogant man, nobody had thaught him good manners! I was more than upset. I got up...

-Return to your mother! and learn your good manners!

I turned around and hundreds of pairs of eyes looked at me shocked and curious. I ignored walked over to my sister, took her by the hand and we left the restaurant.

That was how we met and how our story had begun. It was the reason why I was on this bed now waiting for death to come. I asked to make a phone call, the doctor gave me my phone and I composed Chris's number...

-Hello?

-You got a girl.

-where are you? I want to see her.

-You know very well that I can not to come. You know what's coming and you're going to have to come get her and take care of her.

-Her name?

-Kataluna.

-I'm on my way

I hung up, placed the phone on the table beside me and closed my eyes as I felt my life slowly fade away...
