Rose opened her eyes and saw Ermanno seated next to her on a chair.
Rose smiled wide but soon stopped smiling instantly and sat up in a hurry and asked "Ermanno, Xavi?"
"Hey hey. Don't worry. He is fine" said Ermanno and held her arms.
Rose looked at Ermanno and looked down and then away.
Ermanno held her face and turned her to look at him and asked: "Are you not happy to see me?"
"Ermanno, he.. He.." Cried, Rose.
"We will fight this out together," said Ermanno and hugged Rose.
"Aren't you disgusted by me?" Asked Rose.
"He forced himself on you. It is only fair he is punished. You were forced on. Don't feel less of yourself because of his sins" said Ermanno.
"He had Xavi," said Rose.
"No he didn't," said Ermanno.
"What do you mean?" Asked Rose.
