The Casa Del Castaneda

The Casa Del Castaneda
Unexpected



Feeling that there was nothing more to talk about, Paloma and Rogelio immediately bid farewell from Tatiana's residence. Along the way to the airport, Rogelio did not say much. There was a reprimand that touched the corner of his heart. The intention to unite Paloma with Rafael, turned out to be the worst idea he had ever taken.


Talks between Tatiana and Rafael continued after the departure of Rogelio and Paloma. They discussed seriously about the next steps to take. After all, Tatiana had already been made to fall in love half-dead, to the figure of Rafael who was young and of course handsome. Tatiana, as if not willing if you have to lose the man who has accompanied her for approximately five years.


“I will accompany you to go to Mexico to take care of everything. After that, we can go back to Spain, while waiting for your divorce decision,” Tatiana said. He stroked Rafael's back lovingly.


Rafael, who was sitting in a half-bent position, immediately turned his head. He looked strangely at Tatiana. “You're not mad at me?” tanyakanya.


Tatiana cupped Rafael's face. She smiled gently at him. The forty-year-old woman who still looked beautiful, kissed Paloma's husband's friendly lips for a while. “I was indeed upset and wanted to scold you all out. However, I also really appreciate your honesty, even though it's too late. You would have kept your status a secret, had the woman not shown up. But how else, anyway? In fact, I love you so much.” Once again, Tatiana kissed Rafael's lips.


“Thank you for your understanding. I really appreciate it,” replied Rafael.


“Ya, already. Now, we're packing. I'll get Ernesto to get us tickets. The sooner you solve this problem, the sooner you will get certainty about your status.” Tatiana smiled meaningfully. “Please, don't leave me,” the door is down.


Rafael smiled gently. There was nothing he did but embrace the woman who had given him shelter all along, with a life far above the word decent.


......................


The quiet atmosphere decorates the workspace with the dominance of red and brown. The owner of the room, sitting while leaning his head with his eyes closed. Meanwhile, his right hand was clutching a crystal glass filled with red wine. Sebastian, alone in the room. The dim lighting he deliberately created, in order to disguise the loneliness that suddenly ambushed him after the departure of Paloma.


The handsome man wiggled the glass he held, before gulping down its contents. Slowly, Sebastian opened his eyes. After finishing the rest of the drink, he got out of his seat.


Sebastian, step gallantly up near the huge painting that was displayed on the wall. He looked at the beautiful face of his wife. “Brishia,” he said slowly, “what happened to me?” Sebastian's voice sounded so deep. He rubbed his lips using his thumb.


After all this time he survived, not to plunge himself into the maelstrom of romance. This time Sebastian had to admit defeat. He was unable to control his instincts as a normal man, when dealing with Paloma. Even though it was just a kiss.


The same thing happened with Paloma. He touched the surface of his lips slowly. Suddenly, the young woman recalls the kiss scene with Sebastian. Until that moment, Paloma did not know what Sedastian meant to do with him. Moreover, after he heard the story from Flor, about how loyal the man was to his deceased wife.


Paloma didn't want to fly too high. He had to get rid of all the confidence that had been present, and make him feel proud. Immediately, the hazel-eyed woman shook her head slowly. “No. This is not true. I can't think of anything like that,” Paloma muttered so softly, that Rogelio couldn't hear it.


In a short while, Paloma and his father-in-law will soon arrive in Mexico. The feeling of haru can not be dammed, when he can again set foot in the land of birth that he has long left. About ten more hours to be taken by Paloma and Rogelio, until they finally arrived in the country nicknamed El Tri.


Paloma smiled widely. “I want to see my father soon,” he said enthusiastically. Unstoppable longing, made him impatient to arrive at Carlos' residence.


“Take it easy. We will go directly there,” reply Rogelio. “Can I see my grandson's face?” ask the middle-aged man. Suddenly, Rogelio asks about Nilo.


“Dad,” sigh Paloma slowly. Haru's taste came back to him.


“Sorry, Son. I didn't mean to re-route your wounds. I just want to see the face of a grandson who I did not have time to hug and hold,” said Rogelio lirih. He stroked the head of the loving Paloma.


Paloma nodded slowly. He understood the meaning of the father-in-law's words. It is the right of the man, to know what a grandchild looks like that is never known.


With trembling hands, Paloma opened the sling bag hook that was on top of the lap. He shifted the zipper of the bag, then reached into it. From there, Paloma took a photograph of himself that he always carried with him everywhere.


“Gosh. My grandson,” said Rogelio full day, when Paloma gave the photo. Rogelio watched him carefully. “Cucuku,” he said once again, while wiping the surface of Nilo's face that was smiling widely.


Meanwhile, Paloma immediately turned his gaze out the window. Tears began to drip at the corner of his lips, even though it was as strong as his strength to hold it. He always gets so emotional, whenever he thinks of the little angel who has gone home and will never come back. Paloma, we almost cried. However, the car they were riding in suddenly stopped in front of a house that Paloma was very familiar with. The building has not changed, since its departure a few years ago.


Paloma immediately wiped away the tears that soaked the cheeks. He looked at Rogelio. The middle-aged man nodded slowly. Rafael's foster father took him down.


Carrying with him a huge longing in his heart, Paloma got out of the car. He stepped confidently towards the front door of the house. However, Paloma and Rogelio felt something strange.


The yard looks unkempt anymore. In fact, as far as Paloma his father is someone who always keeps the cleanliness of the house and environment. “Dirty once,” says Paloma wonder. He grabbed the doorknob, then tried to turn it around. However, it turned out that the door was locked.


“Is Carlos away?” Rogelio. He spread his eyes around. In the neighborhood where Carlos lives is quiet. However, there are several houses that are quite close to the residence of Paloma's father. “I'll call him,” Rogelio said as he reached into the phone from the pocket of the blazer.


However, Rogelio had not had time to touch the green phone icon, a fat woman came to them. The woman handed the key to Rogelio. Makes Paloma's father-in-law be surprised. The man whose black hair was already mixed with the gray hair, seemed to be linking eyebrows.


“Is Carlos not home?” rogelio asked, receiving the key that the woman had thrust.


The woman nodded slowly. “About two days ago, Carlos is expected to have a sudden heart attack. We found her lying in the yard, lifeless" the woman explained.
