Daniel

When Ana arrived at the new school, everything changed. It wasn't just because she was beautiful—it was the way she walked, the way she talked, how she didn't let anyone intimidate her. Within a few days, everyone knew her name. And two of them... could never forget her. Lucas and Daniel. Brothers. They looked so alike that they would confuse anyone... but they were completely different on the inside. Lucas was the first to approach her. Popular, confident, always surrounded by people. He liked Ana almost instantly—or at least he thought he did. Daniel... it was different. He watched from a distance. I saw how she helped others without expecting anything in return. How she never bowed her head. How strong she was… in a way that no one seemed to notice. And that's when he truly fell in love. But Ana chose Lucas. And Daniel said nothing. The years passed. What started in school turned into something serious. Ana and Lucas stayed together even after graduating. They were practically adults, having built a life together. And Daniel? He was still there. Always nearby… but never truly present. Attending. She swallowed the pain every time she saw the two of them together. Every smile she shared with her brother was like a silent knife. Even so... he never stopped loving her. Until one day… Lucas needed to travel. "It'll take a while, but I'll be back soon," he said, holding Ana's face. She smiled. But he had no idea that everything was about to change. It was raining heavily that night. The phone rang. It was about her little sister. She was feeling unwell. Very unwell. Without thinking twice, Ana got in the car. Her heart was racing, her vision blurred by tears and rain. She just wanted to arrive. I just wanted to help. But... he lost control. The sound of the impact was loud. And then… Silence. Days later. Hospital. Machines beeping. And someone was there. Every day. Without fail. Daniel. He never left her side. He held her hand. He spoke to her even without receiving a response. He waited. Just as he always expected. Until… she woke up. Confused.
