Rosa do you not have anything to say to me? Cecilio asked as rosa cleaned the wound on his head,I don't do you? Rosa said calmly if you don't want to talk about it then I won't Cecilio said do you know why leon asked for the money? Rosa asked, no I don't Cecilio replied moving his eyes away from her gase if you know already then why are you still pretending not to know? Rosa asked slightly irritated if you don't want to talk about it then I won't, I won't do anything that will make you uncomfortable Cecilio said calmly. Rosa felt angry with his answer she kept something this huge from him and even lied about it putting his life in danger But truly if he hadn't been nosy Rosa would have quietly settled things with leon but Cecilio suddenly got in the way and here he was pretending that he didn't know what why he got captured by Leon the thought of it made Rosa angry, this is making me uncomfortable Rosa replied, her voice mixed with emotions her voice was shaky and sounded tired. what? Cecilio asked in shock this makes me uncomfortable lio you trying to sacrifice for me makes me very uncomfortable I Don't understand why you are doing this so please cecilio be more clear about this if you want to ask me something then do it don't always say you are doing it for my sake it makes me very uncomfortable Rosa yelled in anguish fine I'll ask do you not trust me enough to tell me about your plans to sell the drugs in Antonio's name? What did you think I'd do? go to Leon and tell him? Am I really unreliable? Cecilio asked seriously lio is that all you are going to ask? If I trust you? how come if I trust you bothers you more than the fact that you were almost killed that I hid it from you that I even lied to you you should be furious you should be mad at me yell at me or something what is wrong with you lio? Rosa yelled at him Leon didn't respond immediately and suddenly got up to leave but Rosa held his arm where are you going? She asked, we'll talk when you've calmed down cecilio replied trying to free his arm, No! Rosa refused let's talk now I want you to explain why you do these kind of these why are you always there for me why do you care about me why are you so quiet say something lio
Because I love you Rosalind I care about you I take care of you because I love and not as a sister but as something more I want you to be all mine I have held back for so long because I hate being the reason you are uncomfortable that's why I never said anything but now you know what are you going to do about it? Cecilio asked moving towards her wait what? I don't understand how is that even possible we are siblings that can't be right Rosa said confused we are not blood related Rosa did you forget cecilio replied reaching for her hand Rosa tossed his hand away in shock she was in total confusion she didn't know what to respond at the moment the last thing She expected was for cecilio to suddenly confess to her like this,Rosa I'm sorry but it can't be helped I've loved you for a long time but I don't want it to cause you trouble so let's just pretend I didn't say it Cecilio
How is that even possible Rosa yelled in confusion I already know about it so how am I supposed to pretend that I don't I'm not you Rosa said bluntly so what do you want to do about it Cecilio said trying to reach for her hand again but Rosa walked far away from him Cecilio I think its about time I set you free Rosa said cautiously what? Cecilio asked Cecilio it's about time you left,you hate doing drugs and their is a huge mess I need to clean the last thing I need is this Cecilio it's better if you leave Rosa said looking at Cecilio dead in the eye do you really want me to leave? If I am much of a problem then I will leave just say the word Rosa Cecilio said in pain his voice was shaky like he was going to cry Rosa hesitated for a while before answering in a very clear tone leave Cecilio this is much of a problem Rosa responded tears suddenly welled down from Cecilio's he frose in the spot looking at Rosa with a tearful eye Rosa's words really broke him he thought that she wanted him to stay because she couldn't live without him but the reverse was the case he was the one who couldn't live without her he knew that if he confessed that Rosa would reject him but hearing it bluntly still hurt as much he could never have been ready to hear those words all he wanted was for Rosa to say I love you too even if it meant as a brother but she never did not even once did those words ever come out of her mouth should he really give up like this?was this really the end I shouldn't have promised Rosa that I would go maybe I was hoping that she would stop me and say let's go back to the way things were I truly had a small frame of hope but a huge part of me always knew that Rosa and I wouldn't work,the more he thought about it the more tears flowed down his eyes uncontrollably he gathered his courage and walked out Rosa stared at his back disappear through the door her heart suddenly sank she felt a huge wave of regret she wanted to run after him and ask him to stay but her feet had minds of their own she froze at the spot convincing herself that this was the best.
