Chapter 44 - June/1975 - Love of my life/ Mary and Freddie/Roger and Yasmin
POV Roger
I returned to the hotel. I went into the room and ordered a bottle of vodka. Soon they led . I drank the whole bottle and drank as I cried. I fell asleep . The next day Brian woke me at about eleven in the morning . I slept too . I had a headache. He saw the empty bottle of vodka. I told him what happened. Brian was shocked . - I do not believe Yasmin did it. But wait a moment , Roger . Yasmin did not know what we'd bar . How she found out ? Does Victoria is behind it too?
- Does she was accomplice of Yasmin in all this? - said raising going on toward the bathroom.
- Something tells me that yes, Rog . We discover today . Come on, take a bath to go to lunch . In the afternoon we write in another program.
I showered and then went to the room to Freddie and John are dividing. I told them everything that happened and they were astonished.
- It is possible that the baby Yasmin has done it. - He said he was surprised Freddie.
- Because she did. - I say bitterly. - But now she is free. I do not want to be with someone who does not really love me and you do not believe me.
- Roger Yasmin did it is because she is afraid of you betray it. I understand her side. She was betrayed by Tim and Nicholas. Imagine what goes on in her head. - John said defending it.
- I can not believe you're defending. - snapped.
- I'm not defending, just try to understand why she did it. - Deacy said looking at me. - She's insecure. Only that.
- She does not love me and do not trust me. - Gruff said. - I do not want to talk about it. Hurts me.
- We need to know if Vick is behind it. - Brian said. - We'll find out now.
Vick went to the room, knocked on the door several times and she was not. Then we went to the pool. She could be there. We went to the indoor pool and she is swimming there. When she saw us paled.
- Guys, what a surprise. - She said trying to hide.
- We need to talk to you, honey. - Freddie said.
- Did something happen?
Vick asked out of the pool. She was wearing a black bikini and Brian looked at her body shamelessly. She wrapped herself in a towel embarrassed.
- Well ... - Brian said nervously looking at the legs of Vick. - I think you know what your friend got ready yesterday with Roger. Fidelity test. Yasmin thinks is who to play with the feelings of my friend?
- I already know. - said Vick sad looking at us.
- We want to know if you helped Victoria Yasmin in all this, after all she did not know where we were going bar. Or you know? - Asked John.
Victoria sighed deeply looking at us and said:
- I'm so sorry. I helped Yasmin in this crazy plan. She said she wanted to make this fidelity test and asked for my help to take them in a bar and she would take a woman to seduce Roger.
At that moment I could not believe that Victoria , one of my friends participated in it.
- Roger , please , forgive me . I swear I'm sorry to have been complicit in Yasmin .
- Victoria forget we were friends one day. - I said very sorry for her . - I Never thought you were involved in this . What a disappointment.
- Roger , let's talk. Waiting...
- He does not want to talk to you , Victoria. - Brian said seriously . - None of the four of us wants to see you .
Freddie , John and Brian were upset too, after the trip to the bar was all part of a plan.
- You women are a box of surprises . - John said. - When you want to love us madly and also when they want to destroy us knows very well how to do.
- Victoria , your friend and you exaggerated . - Freddie said.
We left the presence of Victoria. She was crying .
POV Victoria.
Morning Yasmin came to me crying in my room and told all the night before. I knew it would not work. Now Roger is hurt by it and I'm sure the boys will discover sooner or later that was involved in this. I had coffee with her. She said that will give a tour of the city to cool off. After breakfast I decided to go swimming. I love swimming. It had been a time that was in the pool when the boys appeared. By the time they arrived I knew coming pump. I had to confirm that I was part of the crazy plan of Yasmin. Of course they are disappointed with me. Damn it. I was an idiot to help my friend. I should have taken this crazy idea of her head. In the afternoon the boys were recording a program for a Dutch canal. It was clear the sadness in the eyes of Roger. He answered questions from the presenter totally without spirit. John, Freddie and Brian were also with tired faces. I took some photos of them behind the scenes. The atmosphere between us was terrible.
In the evening I went to Yasmin 's room. She finished writing your article and said :
- I changed the flight schedule. I got it. Back with you tomorrow morning for London, but I got a flight to dawn .
- The guys are very hurt both of us Yasmin .
- I know Vick . Forgive me for having it placed in this mess .
- No need to worry about that now , my friend. I wanted to help her . Always help you. May be the most idiotic plans .
Yasmin hugged tightly and she cried in my arms . She finished packing your bags . I called a taxi to take her to the airport .
Time to say goodbye hugged her fondly and said :
- See you tomorrow my friend.
- Good night Vick . - Sadly said Yasmin getting into the taxi.
The next day the boys and I went back to London on the same plane . They did not tell me. Shit. If you get this boring weather will be forced to take a drastic decision .
We come to the UK capital. I went toward the house that I share with my friends without talking to the guys. The girls welcomed me happy. Yasmin just waited for me to arrive and told everything to Mary, Veronica, Layla and Clare which had readied. They were shocked and said they exaggerate, but they were not against us. Clare told Yasmin that Roger will forgive her later on. We're at the end of May.
I keep taking pictures for the band, but the boys do not talk to me, just enough. The weather is boring. Before I was a photographer and friend. Now only the photographer. I am no longer putting up with this anymore. June arrived. Roger and Yasmin did not speak. My friend is destroyed from within. The bad boys look on my face. Today is Wednesday. Day more photo shoot in a studio here in London. I took pictures of them all day, both full band as they individually. At the end of the day I finished shooting before they leave the studio I said:
- Before leaving not look in my face , I have something to communicate them : today was my last day as a photographer of the band. It was nice working with you all. It was good while it lasted.
They made faces of despair.
I grabbed my bag and said nothing and quickly left the studio without looking back and left home. I threw my future as a photographer of the band to the top. But with this boring weather does not give more . I hit the button THE FUCK .
POV Yasmin .
June arrived and since then only talked to Freddie and John . He said he deeply regretted everything I did . But before that I did not trust Roger really . I asked forgiveness even for them . They forgave me and said that soon everything will return to normal. Brian did not talk to me . Roger worsened.
- Any day I make crazy and ask transfer to work in Rolling Stone magazine in New York . Already received job offer to work in matrix revista - told Freddie and John .
- You will not do that dear. - Said Freddie desperate . - We need you near us.
- Do not make this madness , Yasmin . - John said sadly. - We love you and we want to have you around forever.
One Saturday afternoon Freddie called me to go to the house of the boys . He said he was alone and needed to talk . I went to their house . Tim , Les Paul , Brian and Roger had gone to the mall to buy clothes . John was in the apartment who lives with Veronica .
Arriving Freddie hugged me tightly. He was awkward and sad. I wonder what happened to my friend ?
He showed me the lyrics Love of My Life dedicated to Mary Austin. Finally the letter was completely ready. The song is beautiful . He wrote and composed . He said the song will be on the next album. He picked up a guitar and started playing and singing the song . I cried. I was moved . Freddie singing conveyed everything she was feeling inside your heart. I'm shivering to hear the beautiful song.
Then he said :
- I want you to sing with me Yasmin . Follow me .
He played the guitar and sang. I sang some parts of the song . Wow . I'm sure Love of My Life will be a resounding success .
He hugged me excited .
- Freddie , the song is perfect . - I smiled with tears in his eyes . - Mary will love the song .
- Mary does not deserve my love. - He said with tears in her eyes . - I've betrayal Mary sometimes with some women , Yasmin.
Sometimes? Fucking hell. I thought that was only in Japan. What the fuck. I told Freddie he knew of his betrayal in Tokyo because Victoria heard their conversation in the hotel corridor. But both Vick as I never told Mary about what happened. Freddie was up to say it all. Also I told him not to get upset with Vick.
- It is quiet, dear. I'm not upset with Victoria. It is needed as a photographer of the band. She resigned on Wednesday and since then the boys and I are lost.
We do not know who to call to be the band's photographer now.
- You got heavy with Victoria. She was an accomplice, but the major culprit is me. - said sadly. - I urged to help me.
- Then I talk to Victoria, dear. - Freddie said sadly. - It will again be a photographer of the band did. But I want to talk to you something more serious now.
- What my friend? I realize that is with a very sad look.
- Today I'll tell Mary about my betrayals. - Said Freddie crying. I love Mary, always love you, but ...
- But ...? - I asked afflicted.
- Yasmin, you'll be the first to know. Or Brian, John and Roger know it. Can I trust you?
- Freddie what you say here will be here. Count on me. I'm your friend, always. - I say stroking in his hands.
- Yasmin today speak to Mary about my betrayals and what I will tell you now.
As Freddie was talking I was shocked. My eyes filled with tears. My God. This is more serious than I imagined. I could not believe it. This is a bomb.
- Now I told you all can judge me, Yasmin, as many do. - Said Freddie crying. - I know I will lose very important people in my life because of that.
- Freddie. - I said, petting his face. - Who am I to judge anyone? I make mistakes every day, my friend. I will not judge it. I'm surprised at all this, but judge it? NEVER. You can always count on me. In all moments. I just want you to be honest with Mary. She needs to know.
- She'll know Yasmin. - Freddie said hugging me tightly. - She'll know today.
Freddie cried in my arms like a child. I calmed down, saying I'll always be your friend, in all circumstances and that if anyone judge you have to do with me. I will not admit anyone speak ill of Freddie going forward. If by chance Brian, Roger and John speak ill of Freddie buy a war with me. I hope they support Freddie hereafter, otherwise it will be the end of the band.
- I love Yasmin . - I said Freddie still crying in my arms . - I'll love you forever, my friend, with his qualities and defects .
- I love you too much, Freddie . forever will be my friend . - said crying too .
He calmed down and lay on her bed to get some sleep. I stayed with him singing a few songs he likes until he fell asleep. I got up and sighed background. I am very excited with everything that Freddie told me. He entrusted one of its greatest secrets to me . Neither the boys know yet. I will be completely faithful to the friendship with Freddie . I do not tell anyone what we talked about here. At the right time he will speak to other people. Freddie was fast asleep .
I looked at his guitar and the paper with the lyrics and the composition of Love of My Life .
I took the paper and started singing the song thinking of Roger :
Love of my life, you've hurt me
You've broken my heart and now you leave me
Love of my life, can't you see?
Bring it back, bring it back, don't take it away from me
Because you don't know what it means to me...
Love of my life don't leave me
You've stolen my love and now desert me
Love of my life, can't you see?
Bring it back, bring it back, don't take it away from me
Because you don't know what it means to me...
You'll remember when this is blown over,
And everything's all by the way
When I grow older, I will be there at your side to remind you
How I still love you, I still love you...
Hurry back, hurry back, don't take it away from me, because
You don't know what it means to me.
Love of my life,
Love of my life...
Uhhh... Yeah.
I sang with the deepest emotion . Yes, it's a declaration of love . Now I discovered how much I love Roger not only as a friend but as a man. He is the love of my life . But I found it too late. He does not want me . I have to forget it .
- I love you very Roger . He meant that by looking deep into her beautiful blue eyes , but do not deserve your love really . there is still totally trust you , I believe that it will be over time. In fact it is too late . I hope to be happy with another woman. I go out of your life completely , forever . This song Freddie wrote to Mary , but will serve to all hearts in love that exist and that are hurt.
I say these words to myself crying. I get up with eyes full of tears until someone opens the Freddie 's door tightly. And Roger .
Roger is wonderful. He is wearing the same clothes he wore during filming in the Japanese garden. He showed me the footage immediately when I arrived in Amsterdam. It is simply delicious with this outfit . That will grab it right there . It just was not the beret. The difference is that during filming he was happy , now his gaze is plunged into deep sorrow and her blond hair is curlier .
He looks at me sad, surprised and confused grimaces . Quickly I picked up my bag and leave in the shot Freddie room. Step through the room without talking to Brian , Les Paul and Tim . I walk the streets of London crying. The day today is of high emotions . I think of my friend Freddie . He will have a big challenge ahead .
POV Roger.
I come home with the boys. We went shopping to buy new clothes. Freddie did not want to go with us. Our friend is very strange today. He said he would be at home to write some songs. We not insist and went shopping without it. When I arrived I saw the light on Freddie's room, but the door was closed. Already would open the door saying we arrived, but before I hear an angel's voice singing the Love of my Life music. Yasmin was singing. I stood leaning against the door and heard her singing beautifully, with great emotion each verse of the song. When she finished singing hear everything she says. She said she loves me very much, but we just need to rely completely on me. He said the song is for lovers hearts and we are suffering for love. It really is just that. I'll find out in time if she really loves me and only said it in the heat of the emotion of music. Not holding more open the door shut. And I saw Yasmin's eyes filled with tears, I thought about saying something, but she sped off. My God, what happened here? Why Yasmin was in Freddie's room? And he's asleep. There this time? I look at the clock radio. It's six o'clock. I see Freddie guitar next to your bed. I wake Freddie.
- Freddie, wake up. Let's go.
Freddie is slowly waking up.
- Roger ? What is in my room ? - He asked sleepily.
- I ask you : What Yasmin was doing in his room ?
I wonder extremely angry and jealous.
POV Freddie .- Where's Yasmin ? - I ask already rising from my bed .
- She left. - Said Roger . - I heard her singing the song Love of My Life here alone . I opened the door and she just sped off to his room . What was she doing here , Freddie ?
– Are you jealous , Roger ? - said teasingly . - Yasmin and I kissed.
- What? - Asked Roger furious . - You kissed ?
I started laughing uncontrollably. Roger was still angry and jealous .
- Dear Rog , never kiss your lips Yasmin . Yasmin belongs to you.
– She never belonged to me , Freddie . - Roger said sadly. - It is free to do whatever he wants in her life , but I would be very surprised if you had kissed for real.
- You 're jealous , Roger . Confesses . You're jealous because she was in my room .
- I'm a little jealous even . - Roger said seriously . - But it does not change the subject. What was she doing here in your room?
- I called her to come here this afternoon , talk a little . I showed her the song Love of My Life ready , as to the composition and taught to sing the song .
- Just that? - Said Roger suspicious.
- I guarantee that yes, Roger . Now for jealousy and go behind his princess.
Roger grimaces .
- It is more like a witch that princess. She played a powerful spell on my heart and just step on it . But I will deliver me from this spell.
- Wanted Rog , goes after the woman he loves , otherwise I will conquer Yasmin . - Mockingly said smiling at him.
- Whatever. Conquer Yasmin . You are of the same sign, combine completely . - He snapped and went to my room .
Cause I love Roger , especially when he is jealous of Yasmin .
I took a shower and got ready . I'm meeting with Mary and open my heart to her. Step by Brian room and asks :
- Freddie , where are you going ? Later the boys and I are going to a pub . Want to go with us?
- If I get the time yes . Before I go visit my girlfriend. I do not know how long I will be away , but if I get the time I will go with you to the pub .
- Ok Freddie . - Tim smiled .
- Goodbye . - See you guys. - I said leaving home .
I took the subway and forty minutes later he was at the house girls . I pressed the bell and Clare answered. The greeted smiling . Layla , Vick and Yasmin watched the movie The Godfather .
- Al Pacino is wonderful with the character Michael . - said sighing Victoria.
- He really is beautiful . - Layla smiled .
- Hi Freddie . - Yasmin smiled . - Want to watch the film with us ?
- Dear Yasmin thanks for the invitation. I have watched the movie twice. One of the best movies about the mafia of all time . Another time I watch with you again. Goodnight Vick , how are you?
Vick looks at me surprised and said only :
- Hello Freddie .
And back to watching the movie. Vick is still upset.
- Mary has arrived Freddie store. - Yasmin smiled . - It's finished showering . The wait in the room. - She winked at me.
I smiled and went to Mary 's room. Shortly after Mary entered the room and was startled to see me.
- Freddie , my love , what a wonderful surprise.
Then she grinned and kissed me on the lips. Reciprocates his kiss . She always looks beautiful . I hugged her tight and leaned my head on his shoulders .
- All that's missing my dear ? - She smiled at me stroking my face .
- Mary , please locks the door of his room .
She looked confused.
- My dear and beloved Mary , we need to talk seriously .
She got up and locked the door to his room and sat on his bed again.
- After all that is said here , I hope that one day you will forgive me .
POV Mary Austin.
As Freddie was telling me I had betrayed me often I was shocked and went into convulsive weeping. Worst of all was when he told me to betray me with women and men as well. I just cried. I can not say a word. Until finally Freddie assumed to be bisexual. He said he likes women and also men. Until finally I asked crying:
- Why did not you tell me this before? You like man and wife? Already we dated for five years and never told me the truth. Why I was realizing that for some time here you were more distant from me. You do not love me anymore.
- Mary forgive me if you've never said this before to you. Previously I liked only woman, but a year and a half here I realized that men also attract me. My dear, I omitted this fact not only to you but to everyone. Brian, John and Roger did not know it. I told Yasmin to just this afternoon, because I could not stand to hide it and I know I can trust her, but I already talk to you about it today. Yasmin begged me to tell you. It is what I'm doing now. You deserve to know the whole truth.
- Of course I deserve, Freddie. - I sobbed. - I was always by his side at all times. You have to be true to myself. Then it's over between us. All.
- Mary, my love ...
- Do not call me sweetheart. - I cried more . - I'm not your love.
- Mary you will always be the love of my life. - Freddie said with tears in her eyes . - Honey, I know how much you're hurting me, but I can not live without you, Mary . Do not get out of my life but I go crazy .
Freddie started crying nonstop. Frankly I did not understand anything .
- Freddie , I do not understand . - said crying. - As I am the love of his life ? You still ask me to stay in your life?
- Mary , for God's sake , let me explain : I love you too , as a woman, but I do not see a future with you , you know? I do not see myself marrying you, having children , I do not see it , because I also like men . I can not live just for you. I will not be faithful . And I do not want you to suffer for me. You're beautiful, a fiber woman deserves to be happy with another man.
- I love you too much, Freddie . - I confessed crying.
- Our love is mutual , honey. - He said crying. - Our feelings are true and that is what is most beautiful. I love you so much as a woman, as a friend, like a sister , like a mother . I love you so much in every way , Mary . Not just as a girlfriend. Forgive me for everything I'm doing you suffer.
- Thank you for your sincerity , Freddie . - said excitedly . - I'm suffering from it , too , because I wanted a future at his side, wanted to start a family with you, but since we can not have that ...
- Since we can not have it my dear, you will be with me always in my life as a friend, as an adviser , as a mother, sister, do not turn away from me , Mary , I beg you . I WANT YOU IN MY LIFE AT ALL TIMES . Do not go away from my life, please , Mary .
He picks up a piece of paper and hands me. It is the song Love of my Life. He finished composing. He sings the song for me with a lot of emotion. I accompanied the letter on paper. We cried together.
He sings for last looking in my eyes:
- Love of my life ... Love of my life ... Uh ... Yeah ...
I cried even more.
- The song is in your honor, my dear and beloved Mary. One day everyone will know the meaning of this song and who it is. I will always love you.
I could not stand and hugged Freddie strongly and said:
- I forgive you, Freddie. I forgive you because I love you. And always love you too. And though it may be difficult for me right now I promise you that I will be always present in your life, as a friend, mother, sister, counselor, will always be with you.
- You have a heart so pure my dear Mary. - Freddie sobbed. - Why do human beings so complicated love? Why not know how to love right?
– I do not know dear Freddie. - I smile sad. - I think to know love. Sometimes we truly love, but always hurt someone unintentionally on the way. Until we reach the sublime love always leave thorns on the way to someone getting hurt, even if unintentionally.
- Pardon the thorns that left in its path. - Freddie looked at me with red eyes.
- You're already forgiven my eternal love. - I looked at him sadly.
He gives me a peck on the lips and lay on my lap. Freddie never saw so vulnerable as well . It's the first time. I'll keep beside him as much as I am suffering now . The pain will pass.
Roger and Yasmin are suffering too. They love each other but always leave thorns on the way and end up hurting . Another hour they understand. They will still be husband and wife.
As for Freddie and me? We will not be husband and wife but soulmates in every way of life. I'm destined to be next to Freddie . God knows our destinations . So I entrust my fate to God.
