Chapter 5

Kimberly paid Salvador an unexpected visit one day. She gave him thanks for transforming his life. She gave him a hug and a cheek kiss. She wished him success in his new relationship and expressed her love for him. She expressed her satisfaction that he was continuing with his life.

He asked Kimberly to his new flat for dinner. She was accompanied by her daughter. Kimberly expressed her pride in Salvador and his progress. She promised to offer her prayers for him. She committed to praying for him daily till his happiness was realised. She assured him that she was aware of God's protection. She assured him that she was certain he would locate the lady he was destined to be with. She expressed her excitement about what God has in store for him. She had no doubt that he would soon find happiness once more.

Kimberly watched with a smile as Salvador planted a kiss on his lover. She assured herself that she was free of concern for him. It was all going to work out. It was now time for Salvador to feel content once more. Emma, the girl, appeared to be in need of something. She clung tenaciously to her mother's clothes. She raised her head to address Kimberly, whispering something in her ear. Could you please look after Salvador today, Mama? I simply need some alone time with my partner. "Emma, of course. We'll wait outside together. As she knelt by her daughter and gave her a firm embrace, Kimberly spoke. Salvador turned to face Kimberly, grinning. He gave her a hurried kiss before escorting Emma out the door.

A tiny smile appeared on her face. She found it hard to believe. At last, she felt a sense of relief. She worried that this might be her one and only chance. She turned to leave the house, but before she knew it, Salvador was approaching her again. When he got to her, she gave him a shaky smile.

Thus...I went to see how our little girl was doing. How do you feel? Does she resemble me at all? She doesn't have my freckles, that much is clear. However, does she?

"She resembles her father exactly." She shares your eyes, but you have a more charming, rounder nose than she does.

"Ahh...I understand. I suppose we ought to head inside. It will soon begin to heat up. Salvador began adjusting the jacket's zipper. He raised his gaze from their shoes to meet Kimberly's emerald eyes. Taking hold of her hand, he guided her back to the front entrance. He gestured for Kimberly to join him into the house as he opened the door. They strolled over to the living area. The two couches were oriented towards one another. Emma sat on the left couch with Salvador's girlfriend. Kimberly and Salvador sat on the right.

A brief period of silence was followed by the blonde's voice. Salutations, Salvador. My name is Emma. May I address you as Salvador, please?

Salvador gave a nod of agreement.

Emma grinned as she turned to face Kimberly. Kimberly grinned back and put a light hand on Emma's shoulder. Emma extended her body and grasped Kimberly's hands.

I sincerely appreciate you looking after Salvador. Knowing that he is now being cared for by someone else would make my mum happy. My mum cried when I first met him because she was so in love with him. She didn't want to hear it, despite my attempts to reassure her. She will now recover, and after that, we will all have lunch together. And I will impart to her all the knowledge you have given me about cooking and being a kind friend. As Emma finished speaking, she burst into laughter.

Kimberly gave a little laugh.

Salvador replied after clearing his throat. Emma, it's not a huge deal. It didn't matter. At the time, that seemed like the correct thing to do, he remarked, sounding a little uneasy. His blushes went rosy with shame.

Emma smiled at him. She touched his shoulder with her hand. "Hey, Salvador, thank you so much." With a small grimace, she glanced at her phone one more time. It was barely 4:00 pm on the clock. "Hey, how about you go home? We can move our appointment for tomorrow afternoon to the following week. You should get some sleep. I am aware of this. Kimberly smiled warmly at him.

He looked around clumsily as he nodded slowly. "All right. I really ought to leave. I'm sure my dad is wondering where I've been. With a hesitant laugh, he looked back at the blonde female in front of him. "I suppose it was good to see you again, Emma. I appreciate your assistance.

As he turned to leave her, she gave a wave. Kimberly sighed softly when he left, her brow slightly furrowing as she glanced down at her phone.

5:04 p.m.: Emma sent a text. Kimberly skimmed the message.

Emma: Hello, mother.

Emma: I apologise for the late hour, but I had a message for you.

As Kimberly received Emma's text, she grinned a little. She was referring to something that she knew exactly.

Mom: Tell me what you discovered. Is everything going well?

Emma: Yeah, well...no. Indeed, everything is good, but earlier today, I had a conversation with Salvador.

Mom: Alright, so...? How did he say it? Did he assist you?

Emma: Certainly! Of course. He informed me of his assistance. He assured me that everything would be okay and not to worry about him. But he also disclosed something to me.

Mom: Honey, what did he say?

Emma: You know that he told me he liked me? And that he want for us to be friends, um.

Mother: Oh my gosh, I thought he had already informed you. You are very intelligent! Naturally, he likes you!

Emma: Do you really mean that?

Mom: You bet I am, my dear. We can locate someone who likes you if he no longer feels the Jime way. perhaps a person in your age range. or even an elderly person. It's not at all problematic. Simply have fun!

Relief filled Emma's lungs. It was Emma's maternal compassion for her best friend that she always valued. Particularly when such topics were brought up and weren't meant to be. Just in case, she sent Salvador an apology. She was afraid the youngster would believe she was upset with him for her feelings for him. That was, indeed, partially accurate. They had not actually discussed their feelings for one another. Actually, Kimberly had thought that Salvador was a boy at heart. Not until he made the decision to tend to a sick girl. And there was the whole issue with his father and brother, of course.

Kimberly was just putting her phone back in her pocket when she looked up and saw that the sun had nearly set. Her heart began to race with anticipation. Since it was the first day of summer break, they had the entire day to themselves and weren't worried about homework or school.

Emma, oh my god! Summertime getaway! It's at last arrived! Kimberly yelled and ran to the park's playground, one of her favourite spots. Emma grinned at her friend's zeal. The majority of the summer was spent by the two females getting to know one another and hanging together. Despite their modest beginnings, they quickly became friends.

You're correct, Kimberly. Summertime vacations can seem monotonous at times, particularly if you spend them by yourself. There will be excitement in this. Let's play tonsil hockey, please! Grinning, Emma proposed, picturing the enjoyment the two girls would derive from playing football.

With excitement, Kimberly looked up and nodded. That sounds fantastic! But first, let's change so that we won't smell. Emma smiled at what her buddy had said. During their few football games together, she had been the only person who had bothered to smell awful.

The two girls, having completed applying sunscreen and gathering their belongings, went outside and dove into the swimming pool while grinning hardly suppressed. Sitting in the water with a female and a bunch of lads, they had watched the two girls swim opposite laps. They didn't see a couple having fun very often. The majority of the children that came to the park didn't seem to be very interested in swimming. Some liked to hang out along the lake's edge, watching or even playing tag. Kimberly was one of those individuals who loved to swim.

"Let's go racing! The first person there wins! Kimberly smiled mischievously at her girlfriend and made the proposal.

Emma scoffed at Kimberly's excitement. Alright. Let's put our all into it! All set, get set, go! Emma pushed herself forward and yelled.

Kimberly took a small step back. Let's wait for my turn, please. I want to avoid unintentionally knocking somebody into the ocean! Emma rolled her eyes.
