章 18: A death, a scandal

I wrote in my cell phone's notepad:

“I need to get rid of this blackmail. One way or another, I can’t live my whole life, subject to Guilherme’s wishes.”

Really, that's what I'm feeling. And there's nothing better than writing to relieve my stress. And what hurts the most is knowing that all of this was caused by me, by my insatiable desire for sex. I already had Tiago in my life. He already knew he wouldn't have any problems at home, as Sandra liked him a lot. My life was perfect and I messed up.

The days pass with enormous tension. I hardly see Sandra at home anymore, she is always away for one appointment or another. However, I know that these commitments are excuses to stay away from me. She hasn't forgiven me for what I did to her friend. Much less did she forget the way I treated her. I don't understand her reason. The problem I created is up to me to solve without causing more damage to the lives of the people I love.
