Episode 51
Sisters secret
It's been a week now, everything has gone back to normal, KBL being friends and dropping the topic of Kris loving Lucy.
School is busy and serious, no one wants to repeat last grade.
At home, Lucy tries her best to avoid her cousin and uncle. Becca studies more for her dream career. Kris is busy investigating and thinking.
At the Penthouse
Kris: I don't know what to do!
How can I do it? How?
How can I break the heart of someone that I love so much?
If I break her heart, I'm equally breaking mine too
How do I do it then?
How do I take care of everything without hurting Lucy?
(Phone rings, unknown number)
Hello, who's this?
Unknown caller: It's me,
You better recognise my voice because I'm not gonna explain to you who I am
Kris: You?
How did you get my number?
Unknown caller: None of your business.
I just call to say that you should stop being some love fool and get on with the plan
Kris: I don't understand
Unknown caller: It's been two weeks.
Get on with the plan and stop thinking about how you can break someone's heart that you love.
Kris: How did you hear me?
(Looks around him)
Unknown caller: I got my ways.
Get on with the plans, break her heart already.
Kris: I need time, okay?
Time to get her to trust me and all, so that I can succeed in breaking her heart.
Unknown caller: Whatever.
I give you a maximum of a month, if it's more than that, I will wipe the family's history off this earth.
They will be saying goodbye to the world, all of them, including your lover.
Kris: (Angry) I said I will do it.
Stop pestering me! (Cuts the call)
Damn! Foolish Kris!
(Hits his head on the table) Fool, fool!
(Callo enters)
Callo: Boss, why this?
Please stop it.
Kris: I am a fool!
Callo: No, you are the smartest person on earth.
Kris: How will I do it? How will I?
Callo: Do what Boss?
Kris: Get me agua (meaning: water)
I will be in my room
Callo: Okay boss.
(Kris phone rings)
Kris: What again?
Unknown caller: What is agua?
Kris: Stop spying on me, you creep!
Unknown caller: I have to, so that you don't mess things up.
Kris: Agua is…. (looks at Callo) what we say as brothers.
It.. actually means hug
Unknown caller: Brother? He called you boss.
Kris: That's what he normally calls me.
My elder brother likes calling me that.
Unknown caller: You only have two younger sisters as far as family is concerned.
Kris: Callo is my step brother. The family doesn't like him so we live together.
Stop putting your nose in my family matters! (Cuts the call)
Callo: Boss?
Kris: Espanol (meaning: Spanish) Callo
Callo: ¿Qué es Hermano? (Meaning: What is brother?)
Kris: Sí. (Meaning: Yes)
(Taps his shoulder) Mi Hermano. (Meaning: my brother)
We will discuss it later.
At Lucy's house
Lucy is seen in her room just lying down and doing nothing. She has always been staying in her room doing nothing, ever since Uncle Thomas came to live with them.
Lucy: This is my life, now! Poor Lucy!
In school, study and study
At home, avoiding my shivers giving uncle
Kris is still confused and doing as if everything is just okay.
Poor Lucy!
(Knock on the door, Lucy does not reply.)
Gina: I know you are not asleep, please open the door.
I just wanna talk,
I need to talk about girl to girl stuff.
(Lucy opens the door)
Lucy: What questions do you have?
Gina: Can I sit? (They sit together, side by side on the bed)
I don't wanna talk girls things, I want to talk you
Lucy: Excuse me?
Gina: Yes, you.
There's something bothering you
Lucy: Why do you say so?
Gina: You always lock yourself in…
Lucy: I get busy with school stuff
Gina: You don't do anything.
Lucy: You don't stay in my room with me, so how would you know that I don't do anything?
Gina: You said it yourself, you don't do anything, you just wanna avoid us.
Lucy: I said nothing like that
Gina: You did too!
In your mind.
You are even saying that I should leave here now. You just want me to leave you alone and stop being a pest.
Lucy: Are you some mind reader or something?
Gina: Yeap
Lock your door.
Lucy: Why?
Gina: I want to tell you a secret
Lucy: (Uses a remote to lock the door and soundproof the room) No one will hear, I have soundproof the room.
What's the secret? It's about your father, isn't it?
Gina: My dad? No
Why do you think it is about him?
Lucy: Oh nothing. I just assumed
Gina: He freaks the crap outta you?
Lucy: Chick, how do you read my mind?
Gina: My dad is not a scary person or a freak or a shills giver as you say.
He's just him.
Ever since that accident that caused mom's life, he has been so lonely and gloomy.
I don't even know how he lives, he is trying his best to move on, even though it has been about three years and five months ago, when I was nine.
You know, I did go to boarding school, so I don't know how he has been getting off his pains and depression.
But Trust my daddy, he's alright.
Lucy: Oh, that kinda explains everything.
I'm sorry about that.
Gina: You have to apologize to him about avoiding him, not me.
I can come talk to you whenever, even when you don't want it.
Lucy: (Chuckles) Alright, I will go talk to him soon.
You're kinda wiser than your age, you don't talk like a twelve year old.
Gina: It's a gift
Lucy: Nice
Gina: Gift? Gift as how?
That's what you are asking in your mind right now.
Lucy: How do you do that?!
Gina: I'm Gina. (Lucy looks at her confusingly)
Okay.
I can read minds, only if I get close to the person actually.
Lucy: Hahahaha. Hahahaha.
Gina: I'm serious
Lucy: Oh stop the crap!
Gina: Okay.
Think something, I mean say it in your mind
Lucy: (Pretends to think) Done.
What did I say?
Gina: Nothing. You said nothing.
Lucy: Hmmm.
That's easy.
What am I saying now?
Gina: There's no way she can read minds. That's absurd.
Lucy: OMG!
Gina: yeah.
I got the power after the accident, I think it did something with my brain.
After being discharged from the hospital, I started hearing everybody's thoughts.
I have told no-one before, and I'm not gonna.
I just feel like sharing with you, because you know, you are like my only sibling/cousin.
Someone I can trust and someone who I've read her mind many times and saw that she's perfect to keep my secret with
Lucy:Awwwwww
Gina: Sisters secret?
Lucy: Sisters secret. (They hug)
