Chapter 4.
Cristina.
Elmor, with its charm and vibrant culture, had begun to feel more familiar to me. As the days passed, Shuhang Wang and Brenna immersed themselves in each other's lives, beginning to understand the nuances and differences that surrounded them.
Shuhang Wang was a man of 1.76 m tall and strongly built. His black eyes and hair gave him an air of mystery, and the small scar on his nose added a distinctive touch to his face. Although his eyes were not large, they had a depth that mesmerized me every time I looked at them.
As for Brenna Della, she was a light brunette with dark brown eyes. Her freckles, fluffy lips, and dark brown hair complemented her small stature of 1.57 m, with an athletic build that allowed her to keep up with Shuhang in terms of physical stamina.
One afternoon, while we were in the lab going over some documents, he stopped for a moment and looked at me with an intensity that made my heart pound.
Brenna, he said softly, saying my name as if it were a precious secret: I want you to know how important you are to me. Maybe, we started with a stray mail, but getting to know you has been a wonderful experience.
I looked back at him, feeling a surge of emotions. Shuhang, I'm here because I love you. I had never let someone into my life like I did with you before. You are number one in my heart.
The lab, with its equipment and documents scattered everywhere, felt like a refuge at that moment. We both looked into each other’s eyes, aware of the deep connection we had forged.
That night, as we prepared to sleep in separate rooms as we had done since I came to this country, I couldn’t help, but think about the future. I was determined to be strong and support Shuhang in his mission. I knew our relationship wouldn’t be easy, but the determination in his eyes gave me strength.
The next few days were filled with work and preparation. Shuhang and his team were determined to protect their project, and I was by his side every step of the way. Together, we faced external threats and internal fears, confident that our union would make us stronger.
One night, after a long day at the lab, we decided to take a walk around the city. The lights of Elmor shone brightly, reminding me of the beauty and fragility of everything we were protecting. We walked in silence, enjoying each other's company and the quiet of the night.
Finally, Shuhang broke the silence. Brenna, there's something I want to ask you. I know this hasn't been easy, but... ¿do you have any idea how to help me get Cristina back? I really want to marry her.
Instinctively, I felt my heart plummet into my stomach. ¿Who was Cristina and why did he want to marry her? ¿Didn't he see me the same way I saw him? My heart skipped a beat and my palms began to break out in a cold sweat. I then answered, I... don't know how I could help you, I don't know the woman you want to marry.
