Axel and Alicia were traveling in the car when Axel received a call.

— Yes? Aha, yes, I'm on my way there; I'll drop her off at your house. No? How? But I have a meeting.

Axel sighed worriedly as he remained silent to listen to the voice on the other end of the phone.

— Yes, don't worry, I'll see what I can do. Yes, of course, see you.

Axel hung up the phone.

— Sir, is something wrong?

Alicia asked, worried.

  • BEATIFUL   Retum.

    That morning, Alicia packed all her luggage, but remembered that she had forgotten the doll she promised her daughter. She called the company, gave the names of the hotels in the agreement, and informed them that the documents would be faxed to her in 10 minutes. She left the room and, when she was at the reception desk, she said that two documents would arrive; one would be sent to the "Esmeralda" hotel and the other corresponded to that hotel. For that, her boss would meet with the owner at 2:00 p.m. Alicia left the hotel after leaving everything sorted out. It was 1:30 and she had already gone to many stores and still hadn't found the perfect doll for her daughter. She looked at her watch and concluded that she wouldn't make it to the time to sign the hotel agreement. She took her cell phone and called reception to ask to be connected to her boss's room. After a few seconds of waiting, he finally answered. —Hello? That voice answered, making her skin crawl, although she didn't

    It was 7:00 in the morning. Alicia was already ready; she had gotten up early that day, she wasn't going to let her work fall behind again. She picked up the phone and made a call. —Good morning, how can I help you? They answered on the other end of the phone. —Hello, Mr. Enrique? I'm Alicia Torres, Mr. Axel Caballero's secretary. The reason I'm calling is to confirm the time to see the construction site. Do you remember that I told you that, if we closed the deal, you would build the new offices here in Miami? —Oh, yes! I remember, Miss Torres, yes of course! —Yes, Mr. Enrique, Mr. Caballero signed the contract and wants to see the space today. What time could we go? —2:00 in the afternoon sounds good to you? —Sounds perfect, I'll send you the location and we'll see each other there. —Yes, Miss, then we'll see each other. Have a nice day. – Likewise. Alicia answered. Alicia left the room, knocked on Axel's door, but no one came out. —Where is he? Did he go down to breakfas

    Alicia's cell phone rang, causing her to wake up a little tired. She took her phone and, putting it up to her eyes, saw a message notification from Luis; she instantly smiled. "Hi, I hope you're having a good time, that you got the contract. I've missed you so much, to tell you the truth, too much." Alicia smiled even more, then wrote: "I've missed you too..." After sending the message, she saw that it was 9:00 in the morning, so she decided to call Celeste. "Mom... Good morning, just to ask about April, it's Saturday and it's my day, has she arrived at your house yet?" "No, daughter. Gabriel called me, that he would spend it with her today, and they would go to the movies." "Oh, okay, then I'll call her tomorrow, okay, mom? To say hello." "Yes, daughter, I hope you're doing well." —Yes, Mom, I'll tell you when I get back, okay? Then we'll talk tomorrow. He was finishing the call when he remembered that he had to call the engineer and the legal department of the company; afte

    Alicia entered her room after that meeting, took off her clothes, searched through her suitcase and found her shorts and a shirt that she had packed to be comfortable, she sat on her bed remembering that little moment when she was so close to her boss. ''Really, my heart was very agitated, what's wrong with me today?'' She got up, looked at herself in a mirror and noticed that her cheeks were red thinking about her boss; finally she shook her head to chase away her thoughts that involved her boss. —What will I do? I'm bored; I'm also hungry. She said to herself. Alicia took the remote control of the TV, noticed that there were movies. —It's been a long time since I last saw a movie. Yes, I'll do that. Alicia took the phone that was in the room and asked at the reception if she could order a pizza. The receptionist kindly replied that she could do it. —You can give me your order and I'll take care of it. —Really? Thank you very much. A few minutes passed when there was a knock

    And there was Axel, sitting on a bench again with an ice cream cone in his hand, wondering how he'd ended up in this situation."I really couldn't refuse when she smiled and gave me the ice cream."Axel thought, sighing. He turned to see Alicia, and she was eating her ice cream with her cheeks flushed, her gaze lost in the bushes."What did I just do? Why did I take his hand? Does he think I'm being forward? I was so excited about the ice cream that I didn't think twice, and..." "Now what do I say?"Alicia turned to look at him only to meet his gaze and a slight smile that gave her goosebumps. He had looked very well that day; she had always seen him in a suit, and today he seemed more relaxed."Don't you like ice cream? Excuse me, I didn't ask you if you liked it, I just gave it to you.""Don't worry, I like it, it's delicious, it's just that I don't get used to eating sweet things very often.""Oh!"Alicia replied, looking away from Axel.They were both silent while they ate the ice
