Chapter 3

—Por cierto, su madre me entregó esto —saco la cadena que me dio la mujer antes de morir. Es una cadena con un anillo de oro y junto a este se encuentra un hermoso medallón con forma de corazón adornado con pequeños diamantes los cuales forman una “K”. Le tiendo la cadena, él la toma y puedo ver un poco de dolor en sus ojos, después me jala nuevamente del brazo, esto ya me está molestando no me gusta que me haga eso.

—Dice mi jefe que si la señora Katherina le dijo algo más —exige en un tono apremiante idéntico al de su jefe.

—Sí, dijo algo como “Per favore, prenditi cura del mio bambino” (por favor cuida de mi hijo) —miro al padre del pequeño y veo como asiente con la cabeza—. Bien, creo que eso es todo, ahora debo irme. —Y sin mirar atrás corro por un pequeño callejón, mientras escucho gritos a mi espalda. Logro correr cerca de cinco metros, cuando siento cómo alguien me alcanza y pone un trapo húmedo sobre mi nariz y boca. Pataleo desesperada para no respirar, pero me es imposible y siento mi cuerpo pesado al igual que mis párpados.

Massimo Carluccio

No dejo de sorpréndeme al ver a la misma mujer que vi hace dos días, la primera vez que la vi no pude dejar de mirarla hasta que desapareció de mi vista, quedé prendado de su belleza y sentí la necesidad de mandar seguirla para saber más de ella, sin embargo, al final me arrepentí ya que las mujeres son las que me buscan a mí.

Justo hoy llegué a pensar que esta chica era la causante del asesinato de Katherina, al verla correr con mi hijo en brazos me inundó un odio que nunca había llegado a sentir en todos estos años, pero cuando me di cuenta de que en realidad estaba protegiendo a Alexandre todo ese odio se convirtió en gratitud ya que arriesgó su propia vida por la de mi hijo.

Vamos rumbo a mi casa en Liguria. Génova. Tuve que dejar inconsciente a esta mujer para poder subirla a mi camioneta e irnos de Orvieto. Son aproximadamente cuatro horas de viaje y que esté dormida me deja tiempo de revisar entre sus pertenencias.

Encuentro su celular y tomando su mano lo desbloqueo, veo un video que estaba grabando esta misma tarde y puedo ver todo lo ocurrido con la muerte de Katherina. Esta mujer fue tan tonta de seguir grabando sin darse cuenta pero gracias a ello me doy cuenta de que la madre de mi hijo le dijo en su último aliento “D'ora in poi sarai sua madre” (de ahora en adelante tú serás su madre).

Llegamos por la noche a mi mansión, bajo con mi hijo en brazos, el cual sigue dormido, y se lo entrego a mi ama de llaves mientras me regreso para bajar a esta mujer y llevarla a su habitación. Cuando la acomodo en la cama, veo que está por despertar y pido que le tapen nuevamente el rostro con un trapo húmedo. No quiero que despierte hasta mañana temprano. Aún tengo muchas cosas que procesar sobre lo ocurrido y no tengo tiempo para discutir con ella nuevamente.

Salgo de su habitación y la encierro con llave, me dirijo a la habitación donde está mi hijo. Lo está revisando mi doctor personal y por lo que me dice sé que esta mujer lo cuido muy bien durante el tiempo que estuvo con él. Lo tomo en brazos y comienza a llorar buscando a su madre, pero ¿cómo se le explica a un bebé de seis meses que su madre está muerta?

Pietro, mi mano derecha, me sugiere que lo lleve a dormir con esta mujer y tal vez así se calme un poco. No estoy muy convencido; sin embargo, accedo y, para mi sorpresa, Alexandre se acurruca junto a ella, la abraza y, después de un rato, se queda dormido.
