《Mindfulness》CHAPTER 4

"I'm looking forward to your return Christian, have a pleasant journey."
He kissed me and he left. I was alone at home and someone rang the doorbell...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I opened the door and it was Bradley, he entered and he said:
"I'm a stupid man Stefani, sorry for today, I don't know what happens when I am with you, it's very strange and I really don't know. I wish you will understand me, but it's quite difficult, I know."
"I don't understand you, Bradley, you are very crazy and I don't know if I like you or not, it's something difficult, I feel something inside me, something that tells to me to stay with you, but it's strange because I know you since 3 months."
"I feel in the same way Stefani, do you understand me?"
"No Bradley, you run away from problems and you don't face them, and I don't deserve it." She said, sitting on the sofa.
"Can I sit here?" Bradley asked
"I think you should go home to your wife Bradley, she's pregnant and she needs you."
"She's in Spain and she'll stay there for 2 weeks, I'm alone and I'm confused, I just want to stay here with you."
"Sit here Bradley, we can see a film or a documentary."
"Or we can just talk Stef..." He said looking at me.
"About what? The film? The songs or the shootings?"
"About how beautiful you are!" He said to me and I turned red and I was quite embarrassing.
"Bradley, you're so kind and I really like you as a friend but, you should stop and go." But while I was saying it, Bradley put his hands on my basin and he looked at me right in my eyes. Then he started to move his hands on my body and he kissed me. A passionate kiss that let me breathless. He continued to kiss me and we went into my room. He took off my clothes and then we were making love. We fell asleep and when we woke up the next morning, Bradley said to me:

"Stef, I lo..."
"Bradley, we have made a mistake, we cannot do this. Irina is pregnant and I'm with Christian. Oh my god, what I will tell to Christian? I've cheated on him. OMG, Bradley, what we've made?" I said screaming out loud.
"Stef, let's enjoy the moment, it has been the best night of my life, your perfume, your body, you are fantastic."
"Apparently it was just a one-night thing Bradley, I love Christian." I screamed.
Bradley looked at me and started to take his things. He slammed my room's door and he went downstairs. I started to run downstairs and I screamed:
"Bradley, stop! Come back here, we have to talk! Bradley please!"
He stopped himself and he said:
"I'm just an adventure of a night for you Stefani?"
"Bradley, look at the truth, I'm an adventure for you too."
"No Stef, you... Oh yes, you are."
"Bradley, this gonna be our little secret, okay?"
"Yes, we cannot spend other time together, we'll stay together only for the shooting and for the film., it's better for us."
"Okay, you should go now Bradley."
"Yes, I should go." He was going outside but I remembered the song that I've written and I said:
"Bradley wait, last night I've written a part of a song for the film, you should have it. I've written it on a copybook, I'm gonna give it to you. Then you will tell me what do you think."
"Okay, give it to me and thank you so much, Stefani."
"See you, Bradley." He closed the door and he went home.
I was in shock, I've cheated on Christian and I didn't know how to hide this terrible thing. I decided to call my sister Natali, to hear her opinion, she always supports me and I feel comfortable to tell here everything. She answered immediately at the phone:
"Hey Stef, how are you?"
"Natali, I've messed up!"
"What's going on Stef, tell me everything and I promise you, we'll find a solution."

"Yesterday night Christian left for Italy and a few minutes later someone rang the door. I opened and it was Bradley. He started to talk to me and he said to me that I was beautiful. Suddenly he kissed me and..."
"No Stef, you two... Have you made sex? Said Natali screaming.
"Yes but don't scream Nat!"
"OMG I wanted it to be me!"
"NATALI!!! It's not something positive, I cheated on Christian, that's a big trouble!"
"Oh god, Christian, that's a big mess!"
"What I have to do Natali?"
"Do you have feelings for Bradley?" She said to me.
"I love Christian, but..."
"But?"
"I feel something for Bradley but I have to stay with Christian."
"Don't tell it to Christian, keep it hide."
"I'll try Nat, it's gonna be very difficult."
"And, what about Bradley?"
"I saw his eyes when I said to him that it was just a one-night thing. He seemed devastated and heartbroken but that was just my impression."
"He loves you Stef!"
"No Natali, we knew each other for 3 months. He has a fiancè and she's pregnant, he cannot love me!"
"Stef I gotta go, send me a text message if you have news."
Natali hung up on the phone and I went to relax in my swimming pool.
Bradley POV'S
I was on my way to return home and I was thinking about the last night with Stefani. That woman makes me breathless, she is so pure and her body is poetry. But she is with Christian and I've made a big mistake. There's a terrible truth behind it, I've enjoyed every single moment with Stefani and I would like to have her next to me every night. I would like to wake up every morning with my hands on her basin and her perfume on me. I'm falling in love with her and that's a big problem. I should think about Irina and my baby but in my mind, there's only Stefani with her blue eyes and her magical smile. I've noticed that she has fear, maybe she feels something but she's scared of something.
When I arrived home, I phoned Irina to see if everything was okay, she didn't answer but 2 minutes later she called me back:
"Brad, how are you? Sorry, but I was taking a shower."
She called me Brad, but the only girl in the world that I love when she pronounces "Brad" is Stef.
"I'm fine and you? The baby?"
"Fine too, the baby can't wait to get out and discover the world. What have you done yesterday evening?"
"Uhmm, yesterday evening? Nothing I stayed on the sofa and I watched a film."
"Brad, it's not true, I've looked on the app of our cameras and you weren't home! What are you hiding?"
"Irina, are you monitoring me? What the hell!"
"You're my husband Brad!"
"No, we're not married. You're in Spain but I haven't monitored you because I trust you."
"I trust you Bradley but you haven't said the truth. Where have you been last night?"
"I was out with a friend, now stop this interview!" And I hung up on here.
I put some music on and I sat on the sofa. I decided to read the part of the song that Stefani wrote for the film. When I finished I was in tear, she wrote that part for me, it was obvious. My mind started to think and I wrote another part. When I finished, I send a text to Stefani, even though we had an argument:
"Tell me somethin', girl, Are you happy in this modern world? Or do you need more? Is there somethin' else you're searchin' for?"
I smiled and I started to sing it, this song will win an Oscar, I'll bet.
GUYS, THANK YOU SO MUCH TO SUPPORT ME, LET ME KNOW WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THE STORY IN THE COMMENT.
