Chapter 23 - Hidden - chapter 23

Some truths are best hidden , because upon discovery it rocks your whole world off balance , and then you start asking yourself if the truth was worth it ,and what's worse is the secrets you dig out in the process ... And how much it affects your stability.

" I couldn't tell you , I didn't know how you would react " I watch in silence as I sit on a swing with Damon opposite me , the smile on my face so large and genuine but I know it's a lie , even as a take a bite from the apple and he sips his smoothie I know it's all a lie , this is his second gift , but to the world it's a curse and I know I shouldn't be mad at him but I am " enough " and with that I'm back in front of my house , I'm sure the heavens feel my anger as I look into the skies , and it answers me with the clap of lightning , I stand there in silence, in pain or maybe not silence.

" Let me explain Kocheshka"

" No " my voice is barely a whisper , it starts raining cats and dogs, everything is going so so wrong ! It wasn't meant to go like this , He wasn't- meant to keep this from me.... I didn't lie to him ever , but I can't let my goal change , I have to get the book back to the others .

" I need you to put it back "

" The book or the illusion of it ?" His voice Mirrors the pain I feel

" The book " it doesn't take too long and before I know it he's back , so simple huh ?

" You ready to go ?" Everything's not fine , I wish I didn't ask , I just had this stupid idea of him having the powers and I didn't even realize it was the truth , I walk away in pain and sadness , two emotions I thought I left behind , they all come back up , like shackled demons that finally see an escape route and fight to death to make it out .. and I really have to go but not with him , he's a liar

" Yes ....Alone " I watch the pain in his eyes , and I feel bad but - at least we share one thing in common , we are in pain .

I appear with force in the library and land on the floor with a thud , in a mess of myself that he caused

" Princess!!" I hear Rami call out and the feets , they are running towards me but I don't open my eyes I just let go of the book on the floor and let the tears fall , like I stored a lake in my eyes

" D !! Talk to me it's that bastard isn't it ?" Ale fumes beside me , he is a bastard ! And you would think he cheated on me , some people think cheating is the ultimate sin your partner can do but to me it's lying , lying for your own selfish reasons , I wanted answers and I got one , now I'm just scared to find out the rest .

" It's okay ! Shhh it's okay princess " Rami gatheres me in his arms and carries me , I don't know where , or how but I know that when he drops me I feel myself being hugged by two soft bodies and their voices have never sounded more soothing " it's okay Diana we are here now " Stacy and Inéz- we've grown in such a very short time , only then do I open my eyes " let it out , let it all out " they console me .. but I can't , I'm afraid the world isn't ready for me to let go of the weight on my shoulders yet .
