Tatiana POV

Taking a sip of the warm tea before handing her the cup. Placing it on the coffee table, "oh amor it breaks my heart to see you like this" she says gently stroking my arm as I hugged my knees sitting down the couch, my lips quivering, "I'm so sorry I wasted your entire day with me here, I..I just had no where to go" I cry, "oh amor it's absolutely fine I'm always here for you" she says embracing me in another hug. Sighing, "how did he react?" She questions, "I don't know" I shrug my shoulders, "I left before he could read it" I whisper. The sound of my phone buzzing making me look at Danté number, noticing the time.
20:30
Ignoring the call, "I guess I should go, my kids are probably worried about me now" I sigh, "are you sure you don't want one of my drivers to take you home" she asks, shaking my head, "I will be fine" I sigh. "Look before you leave" she says making me look up at her, "I know you may think the timing is off, but how about we go on a vacation, just for a week or 2. You catch a break and unwind a little" she says, "when?" I ask, "tomorrow even" she shrugs, "you have been through a lot and I think you could use the rest, all on me" she smiles. Nodding my head, "I will call you tomorrow morning" I smile getting up from the couch. Facing me, engulfing each other in a hug, "thank you again" I whisper before pulling away. "Drive safe" she smiles, nodding my head before guiding me out the door. Making my way to the car, turning to face her giving her a wave before hopping in the car...

Getting to the house, walking up to the kitchen met with a sitting Alexis, "hey" I whisper, making her turn to face me, "Tatiana" she sighs, "I was so worried about you and so were the kids" she says, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to worry anyone" I whisper, "where are they now?" I ask, sighing, "they asleep" she says making me nod, "and Alex?" I ask, "he hasn't left his room and refuses to eat again" she sighs. Grabbing her handbag, "look, I have to go, my babysitter is probably going insane right now" she says getting up from her seat rushing out. "Alexis" I call out making her turn to face me, "thank you" I whisper, "I will double your cheque this month" I say, giving me a tight smile, "don't worry about it, I was doing a friend a favor" she says making me give her a small smile before she rushed out.

Making my way up to the bedroom. Facing the door as I reluctantly turned the knob. My eyes making contact with Alexander's back facing me, gently shutting the door. Turning to face me, his face void of emotions, "where have you been?" He questions, "out" I whisper. Shaking his head, "you know Rosalina doing some shady shit doesn't surprise me" he says, "but as for my wife, it makes me question her" he says making me face him tearfully. Shaking his head, "going behind my back and doing all of this" he whispers, "th...the Tatiana I married wouldn't do something like this" he says in fury, "the woman I married would talk to me" he grits tearfully, "we both fucked up" he says, "clearly there's no trust and so much betrayal in this relationship" he says as a tear slides down his cheek. Wiping my tears off, "you right Alex" I whisper, "it seems we don't really know each other" I croak as my lips quiver, "some time apart or...being apart in general would do us both good" I whisper, "I will have a nurse come down to help you as soon as tomorrow and I will sleep in the guest room" I whisper, "I will go away for a couple of days maybe weeks, we need the time away from each other" I say as he stared into my eyes.....
