Intro. Helena never planned to be the other.
She was the type who believed in happy endings, in loves that are chosen without fear and in stories that start clean. But destiny likes to play with those who dream beautifully.
On that cloudy afternoon, when she entered the little cafe on the corner, she still didn't know that her life was about to split in two: what she wanted and what she could have.
It was there that she saw Adrian for the first time — sitting alone, hands clasped on the table, looking lost like someone carrying storms inside their chest. He raised his face for a moment, and all it took was that second for the world to seem different.
Helena felt it. Him too.
But only hours later would I discover the truth that would change everything:

From that moment on, she had the chance to leave. But the heart doesn't use logic — and hers decided to stay.
Thus, without realizing it, Helena became the woman of stolen hours, the one who lives in the gap between what is right and what should never be done
