They are both set to leave but Rosalinda stopped their trance .
' Don't you think we should tell dad? ' she asked.
' Man,are you kidding me?,mom would surely tell him,I know that 101 percent,you know she can't keep things like that to herself' Levi explained and then said .' Let's begin,we should sat a timer for about two hours cause this is 6 am,what say?
'Yeah,mom wasted almost one hour of our set time' Rosalinda complained.
' It might be very hard today and the next few days and some pains but as long as you don't give up,we will reach our goal ' he said and looked at her.
'Let's begin now,shall we ?' he asked
' Yeah,let's do this ' she replied and they started running.
They ran with determination or she rather ran with determination.
... Rosalinda' house...
'Mom, dad,I'm off to work ' Mia said as she struggled with her shoes.
'okay but before you leave,guess what?'Stella asked.
'You snooped on Dad' phone?' Mia replied.
'What? no,I stopped a long time ago'
' Clearly too old for that ' Mia murmured
' what did you say?'
' nothing '
' Why do I feel like you're lying '
'I said I didn't '
' Okay ,okay, say it '
Stella moved closer to her and said 'Rosalinda...'
' What about her?' Mia whispered.
' Why are you whispering '
' I thought you didn't want dad to know '
' Why are you acting like you knew about it and of course he knew about it '
' So am I the only one in the dark?'
' Now listen to what I want to tell you, Rosalinda and Levi went for a run this morning '
' So?'
' She wants to lose weight,you airhead '.
' Really?,oh I can't believe this, but I hope she can make it ,what did dad say about it?'
' He's happy and okay with it '
' Now go, before you get fired by your boss ' Stella added.
' Don't worry, I'll run as fast as I can to the bus station, I'll be back before you leave and mom, maybe you should also do some running ' Mia said and ran outside before her mom could reply.
'That brat' Stella said.
...
Rosalinda was panting uncontrollably after running for about one hour,she said to Levi 'good lord,can we stop now'
'no no,we promised it's two hours,how can you lose weight if you continue like this?'
'I think I will faint or even die anytime soon'
'Don't worry,you will neither faint nor die, you'll just be exhausted,have some water, let's do this,after me'Levi said and handed her a bottle of water and started running leaving her behind.
She drank the water in one go, 'Ahhh,this is driving me insane' she said and ran after him anyway.
After a while,they finally finished running and they are ready to go back home, 'Do you wanna run home?'Levi teased her and she shot him a glare.
'That came out wrong,okay let's walk home ' he corrected. ' I'm not the one who wants to lose weight you know?' Levi said and ran away.
' You jerk ' she said and ran after him.
They ran after each other until they got home.
' I successfully made us run home' Levi said.
' Okay,you win but I won't fall into your trap next time'.
They went in and met Henry watching the news,
' Let's just snake inside ' Rosalinda whispered.
' I told you mom will surely tell him, don't worry '
' I can hear you clearly ' Henry said ' and yes, I knew ' he added.
'Oops' Levi said and looked at Rosalinda.
' Come sit,the both of you ' ,the both of them obliged and sat opposite him.
'Are you sure about this,are you sure you won't back out later' Henry asked Rosalinda.
' Yes dad,I promise I won't back out this time ' she replied.
' I'm not asking because I'm against it but because I want you to be happy '
' Thanks dad '
' And me? ' Levi asked
' Of course ' she said
' Ok, enough of that and go clean up,we should prepare to leave when Mia gets back ' Henry said
Levi left the living room and Rosalinda asked Henry ' what was the news about?'
'oh, some rich man's daughter is missing and they are currently investigating close relatives' he explained.
' Hannah Wills?, eight years old?'
' Yes ,the world is so scary, imagine how terrified she will be, that's his older brother, her older brother,Noah Wills was also said to be terrified ' he replied.
' I don't know them but I hope she's found ' Rosalinda said and walked to her room.
' I hope so too ' Henry said and changed the channel.
Rosalinda finished her bath and went to the kitchen to get some snacks , actually some hamburgers,she took it to her room ,she took only a bite before she remembered Levi clearly saying ' No fatty foods ' and then she returned it and and kept the bitten one on the kitchen counter. She went back to her room and packed all her books in a bag , her decorations and her ' Restricted area ' sign .
She sighed and said ' I'll really miss my room '.
She slept and after a while, she woke up feeling pain at the back of her thighs. ' can I even walk?'
She stood up from bed attempting to go to the living room but her every step was in struggles,and she cursed.
' Mia should be back by now ' she said.
' I'm back '
