I don't know why I did this but it was the only thing that went through my head when I saw her walking alone and beautiful in the street near the van, I had an opportunity and I took it ...
After quickly but delicately catching her, I place her on the car seat in front of me at the back of the van. I see her eyes fold with shock and perhaps a little relief when she finally sees my head until her eyes and face show only anger and violently tears my hand from her face without forgetting to slightly scratch my hand.
She remained silent for several seconds just staring at me and I did the same, unable to justify myself, unable to know how to start this conversation that would have taken place years before but you have to start somewhere right ?
"Selena I-" before I can really start my sentence her hand contacts my cheek with a painful slap. I don't even have time to understand that she slaps me that she aggressively tries to open the door that I blocked as soon as she got into the car.
At this moment I smile in my head, it's no longer the same Selena as five years ago and honestly I love the new Selena even more. The old Selena was crying at the idea of crushing a fly , so slapping someone she would never have dared but now yes, with hesitation still but she did.
"Open this goddamn door before I call the police for sequestration et attempt to murder" she whispers facing the car's door . I grab her hand delicately but she detaches herself from me immediately. "Let me talk.....please...I-"
My sentences come out of my mouth all hesitant while she still tries to open the door. "Hmm.. Javier drive us to Mrs. Hernandez's back please!" I tell my driver maybe talking in front of her would reassure her a little more.
During the very short trip, she remained silent, sitting the furthest from me, staring at the road through the windows. "I never want to see you again near my house or near people around me the next time I see this van in front of my house I would file a complaint for harassment!"
Her voice is serious and tries to seems threatening but honestly her voice is a melody to my ears more than a credible threat. "Then listen to what I have to say, if you are still thinking like this after our talk then I will leave you alone I swear!" She seems to think about my proposal and nods slightly after a few seconds.
"How to start without asking your forgiveness my Selena... for everything, for everything that happened five years ago, for doubting you, for cheating you without even listening to your version of the situation. I am extremely sorry to have ruined everything and I want us to become a family again me, you and our beautiful daughter..." by the end of my apologies, she begins to cry, her hands covering her face to hide her tears.
"So-...so you know about h-.. about her" She whispers between her sobs, I nod my head gently and take one of her hands in mine and this time she does not detach from me. "You are an incredible mother... she looks like you but with my eyes and I would love for us to become a normal family again, all three of us... together please Selena" I squeeze her hand then detach her hand to wipe her tears with my thumb .
"Five years ago you did more than break my heart and excuses are not enough, even before deceiving me and asking me for divorce, you abandon me and prioritize your work and you cheating on me was just an other reason for me to hate you more!" She wipes all her tears and finally looks me in the eyes. "You kicked me out from MY house and I had to rebuild my life alone, pregnant, in another country, BECAUSE OF YOU!"
All I see in her is pure suffering when she looks at me and it saddens me that I have subjected her so much. "I know that forgiving me is going to be difficult and I know it won't be today but we can at least try to be a family...I want to be there for our daughter and I feel quite guilty for missing the first years of her life..."
My eyes beg for her to accept, I ask for nothing more than to be close to my daughter and if spending time together makes it possible to get my wife back then I would be the happiest man in the world.
She sighs for a long time hesitant maybe about my intentions but she decides to talk "ok...but the first mistake you make and you will never see us again, I don't want to be romantically involved with you neither... I have a boyfriend but you probably already know that since you spy on me ..... and I don't want Lilah to know you're her dad until she gets along with you."
I nod at everything she says, her conditions seem right to me. "And... it's her birthday tomorrow you should come and meet her...if you want just text me" then she gives me a card with her business phone number and tries one last time to open the door that was unlocked as soon as we arrived in front of her house.
She gets out of the car but stops when I hold her gently with my hand around her handle "Thank you... I will not disappoint you this time."She simply nods her head, whispers goodbye and goes home.
"Javier take me to the toy store in the center please!"
