The Governess ✔️ - Jorge & Martina *Book 1*

Chapter 12 ~ Jorge:

When Martina left, Maria, Ethan and Joshua came running at me while I was sitting on the sofa. Joshua ran to my lap; I pulled Joshua up onto my lap while Maria and Ethan sat down beside me.

Joshua: Where's Martina?

Jorge: She's taking the night off, but I'm here to take care of you, not as a governess but as your dad.

Ethan: Are you and Martina falling for each other?

Jorge: *Ignores Ethan* How about we make pizza?

They agreed with excitement while Ethan looked at his dad while they walked to the kitchen holding Maria's hand.

Ethan: Dad, why won't you answer the question?

Jorge: Ethan, get a bowl from the cupboard.

Ethan: *Cheeks his dad* Dad for God's sake!!!

Jorge: Ethan!!! Get to your room now.

Ethan: It's not my fault you're getting touchy on the topic of Martina.

Jorge: That's enough, get to your room now.

Ethan: Fine, Dad, but I don't want a new mom.

Ethan slammed the door behind him while Joshua and Maria were waiting for me to help them with the pizza.

After we let the pizza cook, I went up to see Ethan while Maria and Joshua were watching tv, I walked into Ethan's room where he was lying in bed crying.

Jorge: Ethan, why are you crying?

Ethan: *Sniffles* I just miss Mom okay?

Jorge: *Sits on the bed* I know, friend okay, I wish she were here too even though we were split up she is still your mom.

Ethan: But, what? Martina is the way you miss her.

Jorge: Now that isn't fair Ethan, I'm not with Martina okay, and besides if I did decide to be with someone new, I would discuss it with you first I wouldn't shut you out.

Ethan: I just don't want anyone to replace mom.

Jorge: Ethan, nobody can ever replace you, Mom, even if I did go out with someone, but it's my life.

Ethan: And I understand that Dad, but Martina is a nice girl, so if you want to see her then I will be okay with that.

Jorge: Thank you.

I hugged my son to calm him, and Joshua shouted up the stairs while the timer was beeping for the Pizza.

We went downstairs to grab the pizza out of the oven, I served the pizza on a plate and put it on the coffee table for us while we were watching a film as the kids fell asleep. I also fell asleep until I heard the doorbell rang.

I managed to get up without waking the kids up when I answered the door.

Jorge: Oh, Diego what are you doing here?

Diego: Is that how you greet your partner?

Jorge: What are you talking about? I have a partner and it's Ruggero.

Diego: I am your new Partner Jorge.

Jorge: It's a shame what happened between you and your partner at your company did he get bored of your arrogance?

Diego: Look, it's only for a month where Ruggero is swapping with me for a month.

Jorge: Why? Whose idea was this?

Diego: Lucus.

Jorge: *Puts his hands on the counter* Oh, why am I not surprised? you can tell him where to get off, because Ruggero is my business partner and he will always be my partner, not because of what he said.

Diego: Do you want to argue with Lucus the boss?

Jorge: Listen to me, I am the owner of my business, and I will tell Lucus that, but you are not ever going to be my partner.

I shouted at him forgetting the kids were asleep in the living room, Diego then left with a smug face I pushed a plate off the counter luckily the kids were nowhere near me.

I took the boys and Maria up to bed since it was 22:00, I sat down and watched TV while thinking about our argument with Diego, I went up to bed after a while thinking about that night with Martina.
