I wake up very early in the morning and I look at Ezequiel sleeping peacefully next to me. It's Sunday, he told me he would stay home all day today. It's strange, we have never spent a whole day together. I get up, go to my room, take a shower, and after bathing, I put on my favorite blue shorts and my white t-shirt.
I go out without noise not to wake up Ezequiel, I prepare breakfast and go to the garden to explore a little. It's a very beautiful classic garden, it has hydrangeas, tulips, a beautiful cherry tree, and an old pear tree. There is also a small fishless pond and many other plants, it needs some maintenance and pruning, it's neglected, but still beautiful.
I approach the old pear tree that has an old swing, I get on it and start swinging. It's a lot of fun, I love this garden, today the day is sunny.
I see Ezequiel coming out of the house and starting to look for me, he looks upset, he thinks I escaped. I hide from him, it's very fun, I used to play hide and seek with my mom in the mansion. He approaches the pear tree, annoyed, I run and hide in a bush, I see Ezequiel take out his phone and try to call. I left my phone in my room.
""That idiot won't be able to escape from me," I hear Ezequiel speak, I look at him and he's red with anger, so I decide that's enough, I sneak out and touch his back.
"Were you looking for me?" I say smiling.
Ezequiel looks at me annoyed, "Where were you, do you think I'm up for games? Don't act like a child."
"I just wanted to play for a while, I'm sorry," I say on the verge of tears."
"Don't play with that, I thought I had lost you," he says, still elated by the emotion of the moment, "I almost looked for some of my best contacts to look for you, because even if you try to escape, I will find you to the last corner of the world Mateo." The look on his face is very intimidating, I know he is serious.
I look at him surprised, "I'm not a prisoner, I just wanted to explore the garden, do I even have to tell you for that?"
He grabs my shoulder, "even to go to the bathroom you have to tell me, okay?" I nod.
"OK?" He holds my shoulder tighter.
"Yes, I'll obey you and I won't go out without letting you know," he releases me , he is very strong.
"Ezequiel starts to look at the garden, his gaze turns nostalgic, he touches the old pear tree, his phone starts ringing and he answers, I hear that they need him. Today is the only day we would be together and he has to work.
"I have to go, I know I had agreed to stay, but something came up."
"Don't worry, you have more important things to do. The garden needs maintenance, I'll hire someone to fix it while you're away," Ezequiel looks at me confused.
"Are you going to wait until I'm not here to bring someone else in to fix the garden, do you think I'm an idiot?"
"It's not how you interpret it, I just..." he interrupts me.
"I will not go, I will take care of the garden, you can't bring in any man without my permission, do you understand?"
"But they just called you, you have to go to work, I'll be fine," I insist.
"No, I'll stay, I'm going to the warehouse to get the gardening supplies," he leaves, leaving me confused. Ezequiel is very stubborn and wants to control everything, even the smallest things I do; apparently, he's a jealous type. He looks very cute when he is, I know he cares about me.
I sit on the swing and sway, the morning sky is beautiful. I see Ezequiel coming back with gardening tools.
"Ezequiel, there's a lovely pond and it doesn't have any fish, could you buy me some?" I ask with a pleading look.
"I don't think it's a good idea, you have to take care of them," I stand up and take him by the arm, he looks resigned.
"Take my phone and order whatever you want, don't bother me right now," he takes his phone out of his pocket and hands it to me.
"Thank you," I take the phone and give him a hug.
"Get out before I regret it," I leave quickly and sit on the swing. I buy two koi fish and their food, they will bring it to me in no time. What a thrill!
I have Ezequiel's phone in my possession, he controls me, so it won't be bad if I snoop around a little. I go into his gallery and find many photos of him at parties, luxurious places and many very pretty girls, I look a little more and see photos of some girls naked or with him in bed. I know most of them, they are daughters of very prestigious men and married women. I didn't know this side of Ezequiel, but it wasn't surprising, he always arrives late because he is with one of them.
This is very uncomfortable, one photo in particular catches my attention. When I open it, I confirm my suspicions, it is my older sister completely naked. I was very surprised, she knows Ezequiel and probably slept with him, this disappoints me a lot, maybe she thinks I'm like her.
I feel them take the phone and I look down. Ezequiel looks at the photo and remains silent.
"I shouldn't have snooped into your phone, I'm sorry," I get up to leave, but Ezequiel stops me by grabbing my arm.
I know your whole family, and as you can see, your sister. I slept with her only once, but she sent me some photos from time to time," he says before letting me go. I go crestfallen to the kitchen and, from the window, I can see him working.
I don't understand our relationship, are we friends or just partners? It hurts me to know that he fucked my sister, I wonder what other secrets there are. I have never seen him in my life, however, he does know me, it is something strange, my sister is married and he is unfaithful to her husband.
I make a lemonade, even if I want to, I can't bother with him because we are nothing. I see him a little tired and, I don't know when he took off his shirt, he takes great care in cleaning the garden. Even though he is rich, he doesn't mind doing hard work, he will come from scratch, I don't think he was born into prestige.
I bring him some lemonade to the garden, "Ezequiel," I give him the lemonade and he drinks it in one gulp. Apparently he was thirsty, he has started the hot season.
"I can help you?" I take a pair of garden pruning shears, he takes them from me.
"No, this is a job for men, go to the kitchen."
That comment bothers me, "you're a sexist, I'm also a man and I'm going to prune the bushes."
"You better go home and prepare something," I ignore him, take the scissors from him and try to cut a branch, but it is too hard. Ezequiel looks at me seriously with his arms crossed, I'm not going to admit that I can't chop a branch.
Ezequiel takes the scissors from me and breaks the branch with ease, "I'm going to remind you something, I am the one who makes the rules and I am also the man of the house."
"But we are both men, there has to be a solution."
"The solution is very easy, you assume the role of woman," he says with crossed arms.
"I don't want to, I can be an alpha male too," I say seriously, Ezequiel starts laughing.
"I'm the one in charge" he grabs me by the shirt.
"Just because you're taller and stronger than me doesn't mean you're the alpha," he places his hands on my waist, slides down to my butt and squeezes it, I try to struggle, but I can't, he beats me.
"You can't do anything to me, I'm not a woman and you're not gay," he squeezes me harder, I try not to moan so as not to lose the little dignity I have left.
"I just have to fuck you to be the alpha, you should have said that before," now I'm scared.
"I didn't mean that," he doesn't listen to me, Ezequiel bites my neck, I don't want to lose my virginity like that.
"You're... the alpha, ah..." I say with my voice breaking, my body wants to betray me again, I'd rather lose.
"I… ah… Eze…" I try to tell him, but he starts caressing me. The moment he stops biting me, I take the opportunity to escape, although I stumble and fall.
"You're not even good for escaping," I hear Ezequiel's mocking voice, "obey, I'm the alpha, go cook," he lowers my shorts a little. "You wear very short clothes and underwear with bears," upon hearing that, I get up and walk quickly towards the house.
That was close, he touched my neck and pulled up my pants. I go to the kitchen, wash my hands and prepare something for lunch. Ezequiel is a sexist, how can he treat me like that? I'm sure he's used to it, it's very unpleasant. I'm going to make the chocolate cake that he likes, see if it changes his mood, I think the only way he's happy is with food.
In an hour and a half I prepare a delicious chocolate cake, prepare the table and put the cake in the middle. I go outside to look for it, when I come out, I am surprised to see how the garden turned out, it is beautiful, the bushes are pruned and the grass is cut.
"Everything is very nice, you did a good job," I say, very surprised.
"I want you to see something," he guides me until I reach the small pond where the fish are, I start to cry, "it's very nice, I love fish. Thank you, I made you a delicious chocolate cake."
Ezequiel goes towards the house enthusiastically. I don't know when they arrived, even so the detail is nice, I almost forgive him, although he slept with my sister and tried to fuck me, he bit me and lied to me, the list is long. I'd better stick with the nice thing he did today.
The fish swim so happily in perfect harmony, it is nice to see them because even though they arrive in a new place, they adapt so quickly. These beautiful fish will bring harmony to this house, I will call one tea and the other spots.
