Love to love
The party was over. The last guest, Alfred, left the room
with a sad gesture. He had lost a diamond ring just before entering the party.
It was the ring with which he was going to ask the hostess to marry him.
Someone had an interest in that request would not take
place, so the loss of the ring was providential, or better said, it was very
well planned. The maddened love for that woman had no limits, so the author of
that evil, once the first part of her plan had been overcome, the next step
would be to conquer that woman's heart before her opponent reacted.
When she rang the doorbell, she thought of what she was
going to say.
“Hello.”
“Hello Carol. Come in.”
Carol paled. Her beloved was wearing the diamond ring that
she had tried to make disappear.
“What do you want?”
“That ring?”
“Alfred came back last night and gave it to me. He told me
that before coming to the party you took it away from him to prevent him from
asking for my hand. He realized your plan and decided to come and tell me that
he's really in love with you, and since he wants you to be happy, he doesn't
want to be an obstacle between us.”
Amor al amor
La fiesta había terminado. El último invitado, Alfred, abandonó
la estancia con el gesto triste. Había perdido un anillo de diamantes justo
antes de entrar en la fiesta. Era el anillo con el que iba a pedir en
matrimonio a la anfitriona.
Alguien tenía interés en que esa petición no se produjera,
así que la pérdida del anillo fue providencial, o mejor dicho, estuvo muy bien
planificada. El enloquecido amor por aquella mujer, no tenía límites, así que la
autora de aquella maldad, una vez superada la primera parte de su plan, tenía
que conquistar el corazón de aquella mujer antes de que su oponente
reaccionara.
Cuando llamó al timbre de la casa, pensaba en lo que le iba
a decir.
-Hola.
-Hola Carol. Pasa.
Carol palideció. Su amada llevaba el anillo de diamantes que
ella había intentado hacer desaparecer.
-¿Qué deseas?
-¿Ese anillo?
-Alfred volvió anoche y me lo dio. Me dijo que antes de
venir a la fiesta se lo sustrajiste para evitar que pidiera mi mano. Se dio
cuenta de tu plan y decidió venir a contarme que en realidad está enamorado de
ti, y como quiere que seas feliz no quiere ser un obstáculo entre nosotras.
