I DIE BECAUSE CAMILLE IS HAPPY
Andy narrates.
I couldn''t resist going out looking for Camille, I just had to wait for Keyra to take her sleeping pill,
and like a criminal I went looking for my love, I fell asleep in her arms and now I must go, my harsh
reality is another.
“don''t get up yet” Camille''s voice is more pampered than usual.
“I have to go babe, you know...” I tell her with a frustrated tone.
“Go away then! we''ll see each other on Monday, I''ll be in my mousetrap” She says while covering
her head, I would be delighted to stay by her side and enjoy her warmth, but it''s Sunday, "family
day" although I knew she was waiting for me the sight of my wife asking me why I went out at night,
I approached Camille and gave her many kisses on her face, she was upset with me, but for now I
couldn''t do more, I had many uses, I regretted my marriage so much.
I got out of there in a taxi, Ondo didn''t work on Sundays, I got to my mansion that wasn''t even
mine anymore because of Keyra, my spaces were invaded by her things and my peaceful
decoration had changed. I go in quietly, it''s a little after eight in the morning, I go up to the room and
there was my wife, she wanted to kill me with her look.
“Where were you, Andy Alf? I''ve been awake since four am and you didn''t even bring your phone,
can you exin?”
“I couldn''t sleep, and I went for a walk”.
“To walk at dawn? You know not to lie, I know you, I know how meticulous you are, I know you''re
lying, tell me the truth!”
“Think what you want, as soon as weplete six months of marriage, I will divorce you” I go to the
bathroom and start bathing.
“Don''t even think you''ll get rid of me Andy, I''m not going to let you, my name, and my prestige are
not going to go to the ground because of your whims, what will they say about me? I''ll make
everyoneugh”.
I can only continue the shower while I listen to a number of insults from Keyra, if she was an expert
at something, it was in giving out songs, now I understand why they couldn''t stand it at home, but I
didn''t even pay attention, my thoughts were sitting on the Camille''s bed, the sensation that her body
generates fills me with peace and sobriety, I was not going to let myself be intoxicated by what
Keyra said.
“I finish my shower and start to get dressed before his defiant look, are you done yet?”
“You are damned, you don''t even touch me, why did you marry me?”
“I was an idiot manipted by my peers and by you, but you know something, no matter what
happens I''m going to get divorced, don''t even think I''ll stay by your side, I''ve never loved you and I
won’t.”
“But you have made love to me dear!”
“But not a long time ago, I didn''t want you, you''re a spectacr woman and you deserve a man who
loves you, not me, I''m a bad person with you Keyra, understand, we must get divorced, we can''t be
together anymore. In a couple of months, we can be free and happy.”
“But I want to be happy with you Andy” she tells me with a tantrum voice.
“You are only interested in fame and money, there are many better men than me and with more
money, I''m sure they would notice you, understand that I don''t want to be by your side anymore” I
was sorry to have to say those words to Keyra, but she would not tolerate a day of farces.
“Never Andy! Ending this marriage would ruin my career, I gained many contacts and contracts
thanks to this wedding, I will not ruin my life, I swear”.
“Would you rather be unhappy?”
“The unfortunate one is you; you don''t want to be with me, you know we can do wonders- Keyra
takes off her robe and is naked, she offers me her body and although before it seemed like a delight
to me, I could no longer see her as a woman”.
I leave the room, I order one of my employees to make one of the guest rooms for me, to take out
my things and put them apart from Keyra''s, I was not going to sleep with her, and she would have to
give me a divorce She wouldn''t force me to be married to her forever.
I call the securitypany I trust; I schedule an appointment to fix the cameras in Camille''s
apartment, I couldn''t live if I wasn''t on the lookout for her, I wanted to see her all the time as soon as
I can separate myself from Keyra I''ll run to her arms.
I text Camille so she won''t be caught off guard.
“Baby I miss you...I just wanted to tell you that they are going to rece the cameras, I can''t live
without seeing you, kisses”.
After thirty seconds a message arrives
“Dear boss, I spied on your wife, I''m at my mother''s, I return directly to the office on Tuesday, so
today I won''t be in the city, kisses.”
I remembered that Monday was a holiday, and thepany would return until Tuesday, I couldn''t
bear not seeing her, so I made a video call, but she doesn''t answer, I insist ten more times and my
patience is running out.
“Why do not you answer me?”
“Because I''m with my mother, stop bothering me!”
“Don''t make me say hello to your mother… answer!”
“Damn Andy, I''m with my mother, I don''t have her by my side at all times, her situation is getting
worse, I''m taking care of her, she has a crisis, and the hospital here doesn''t have good care, don''t
be desperate, bye”.
Camille disconnects, I don''t even dare to write to her anymore, I know she must be angry, I have to
help her mother and little sistere to the city, but it won''t be in the same apartment with her,
because they would interrupt us, I''ll go find a of my properties so that your mother and sister are
here, I will hire a nurse, that''s right, so she won''t be in a bad way, advantages of money!
I go looking for one of my properties closest to Camille''s apartment, since the ones I have are north
of the city and I''m sure she wouldn''t like it, I remember that an apartment is for sale in the building,
I''ll buy it right now and I''ll give you a surprise for your return. It takes me approximately an hour and
a half to acquire the property and another hour to adjust that the remodeling starts right away, I go
to the ce and make sure that they are leaving it well.
All Sunday afternoon is gone, Keyra has my cell phone cluttered with messages and calls, asking
me where I am, but I don''t want to be by her side, she''s wonderful, but I don''t have eyes for her, norCòntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
disposition, I don''t know how I''m acting, I know I''m a bad person, but my feelings are towards
Camille, and there''s nothing to change them, meanwhile I make sure that the apartment for Ang
and the girl is perfect, I entrust two people I trust to Let them fix it, I''ll go get them myself.
I leave in a small truck that I have as part of my car collection, I drive about four hours and there I
was, in Camille''s humble house. I knock on her door, I hear a soft music inside her, I feel how a few
footsteps approach the door and peek out, Camille''s face turns pale. open the door in anger.
“That? Do you have a GPS in my butt?! What the hell are you doing here?”
“I came to greet you and to visit your mother, in fact, I forgot to bring you something, but it''s okay,
could youe in?” I answer her like she''s a little kid.
“Happens...”
She has no choice but to let me into her home, it is a very humble house, it has little furniture, but
the infinity of love is noticeable, there are a lot of pictures hanging on its walls, a small living room
with some old chairs and deteriorated.
“Who is he?” a little girles out, very simr to Camille, I guess she is her little sister.
“Nice to meet you little one, I''m Andy” I extend my hand to her.
“Nice to meet you. My name is Carin”. She It was seen that she was a very intelligent girl, by her
way of greeting and acting- Camille smiles at her, a woman appears behind the door, she looks
quite deteriorated and tired.
“Daughter, who is he?”
“Mom, he''s my boss” Camille''s mother''s face pales even more.
“Oh, my lord! but please continue, I''m Ang, but girl, why didn''t you tell me you wereing?
Look at our looks, this disorganized house, but it''s what a shame, daughter” She begins to flutter
trying to organize everything, Camille makes me grimace.
“Calm down Mrs. Ang, she didn''t know.” I try to calm her down, after an hour of talk and
presentations between Camille and Ang they serve dinner, they are very humble, but I feel at
home, they are very kind and feel the warmth of home It is priceless, ensuring the value of things for
what they really are, is more important than having millions in my pocket, my reality was that, I had
billions in my pocket, a great fortune that I didn''t even know what to spend on and I was so lonely
and empty that eating a simple chicken and rice made me feel lucky.
I helped Ang wash the dishes, it was already after ten at night, I had to find a hotel to stay in, I
felt embarrassed by the time, so I said goodbye.
“Well Mrs. Ang, I''lle in the morning” I take her hand and kiss it.
“No, as it urs to you my daughter will sleep with Carin, she can stay in Camille''s room, right
daughter?”
“No, how can you think of it, I don''t want to bother you” I answer somewhat embarrassed.
“It''s a pleasure for us” Carin looks at me affectionately and Camille is delighted. So they show
me her room, unfortunately and I respect her mother that night I won''t be able to touch Camille, but
she would sleep peacefully in her bed.
Very early in the morning I get up, they are still sleeping, I decide to abuse them in their kitchen, and
prepare them breakfast, when they go downstairs, I offer them coffee, I am not an artist in the
kitchen, but I prepare them a French sandwich,
Camille''s face is quite a poem, but she is happy, without many words we all have a peaceful
breakfast and I take the opportunity to tell them my proposal.
“Well Camille, I want your mother and sister to go live in the city near you, there is a hospital there
that treats cancer, ALF AND ASSOCIATES, it finances it, it would be a good ce for your mother”
they all stay ring at me.
“No Andy, I can''t ept that, I''m sorry, but I don''t know what you''re up to with all this” Camille
answers seriously before her mother.
“I just want you to befortable, that you shouldn''t travel and that your mother recovers.”
“But here they are fine, where are they going to live? and with what things?”
“I already took care of that- I wink at her; she understands immediately.”
“I don''t think my mother epts” Camille looks at her, although Ang is surprised, she thinks
about answering for a moment and looks at me.
“What intentions do you have with my daughter, Mr. Alf? why so much attention?” That low blow I
did not expect.
“We are just good friends, she has shown very good performance in thepany and is a great
support, in addition you would be assisted in a foundation on behalf of ALF & ASOCIATES , Camille
would have a discount on the rent of the apartment for being our employee, she is a support n,
and since she is a good friend to me, Mrs. Ang, now, it''s up to you.”
Ang hearing my words and my security thinks about it a bit.
“I ept, I want to be closer to my daughter, we will rent this ce to pay the expenses together
with my small pension and we will leave, I want to be treated”.
Camille smiles happily, Carin is excited, I summarize that we have to leave today, that someone
will take care of your house, for the next four hours we prepare the important things, your valuables
and we leave in my truck, Camille during the whole way, I treat myself as a maniptive liar, but I
loved that she was happy, I would even give my life to see her smile.
