669 Words
_No matter what she does, it is never enough for her, commented Gabriel, annoyed by his grandmother's request. _She only does what she considers best for you. _ She can't make decisions for me, I am not a child, Cristine. I was supposed to stay with her so she wouldn't feel alone. She is not a woman who sits crying in corners and regretting the past. If she continues like this, I swear I will move out and you will stay and fulfill her whims. _You're exaggerating, it hasn't even been a month since you've been living in her house. _I have heard the rumor that you are in a relationship. That's right? _You make a lot of questions. I have to go, she says hi to the girls for me. Gabriel went to see one of his partners, with whom he had decided to build a bartending service for parties, something that his family would not accept. Doing that distracted his mind and he felt self-sufficient. By being absent on several occasions, the business began to be very popular and that only brought problems. At the beginning they managed to cover the demand with more staff, and they came up with catering and DJs. Everything was going well until one of them made a decision that ended up putting an end to that great idea by starting the illegal sale substances. Gabriel did not agree with it but it was too late. Complaints began to pour in, then his business began to attract other types of people. Mrs. Henderson, his grandmother, had found out about the incident through a police investigation. Upset by this, she decided to put an end to that business, something that cost her several million. After what happened, she decided that her grandson moved with her and as a punishment he had to work another employee the supermarket The bartender's business had fallen and all merchandise had been seized. Gabriel was unaware of the clandestine sale, but he was one of the main people responsible for carrying his name as a brand. What he did not know is that one of his partners had a large debt with suppliers, who then pursued him tirelessly. He had managed to pay off the entire debt, but when they discovered Gabriel's true identity, the abuse and threats began. For that reason he chose solitude. To involve anyone else in his life was to expose him to the same danger in which he lived. His family had twenty-four-hour security and that gave him peace of mind, but then out of nowhere someone else appeared. “Who does he think he is to appear like this in my life.” Anabella, a young woman who worked at the supermarket, crossed his path and refused to leave. He was so upset by it, he warned to stay away from him on several occasions, but she didn't. They had had so many accidental encounters that it began to seem intimate. One day she forgot her phone in the house and without hesitation he checked and found out what her intention was. At that moment she couldn't help but smile, as she tried to remember the image of her. She then tried to put an end to it and warned him again to stay away from her... Today, due to misunderstandings, they considered it as if she were his girlfriend, which would only bring a lot of problems. He couldn't think about a relationship, he hadn't even considered it, although the girl was beautiful, different. He had stopped for a moment to analyze that he had any idea who she was. _Where are you coming from at this hour?, asked her grandmother, who was very upset for not having had her support all day. _I was helping my girlfriend, she was moving, she responded without giving more importance to the topic. _Don't leave me talking alone, young man! His grandmother shouted. _Girlfriend? His grandmother asked again, but he did not answer again.
