14 Nights In Emeliano's Bed

42

His expression was like I just gave him a hard slap on his face. "What?"

"No need to act like I'm wrong... Isn't it obvious... Right after we had sex you went running away with your ex lover... The one who betrayed you!"

I'm sorry Emeliano...This was the only way I could think of.

"I would never- what do you take me for? Is that what you think of me? Why would you-" he paused as his eyes grew a little red like he wanted to cry or something but his jaw was clenched hard. "Look Rebecca..." He sighed. "I- last night meant more than you could even think of to me... Okay? Your words are really not pleasant to my ears... So please-"

"Spare me Emeliano! What did you think? That I was a fool? Anyone who has eyes can see that you're still madly in love with Camilla!"

"Apparently you don't have eyes! Or maybe they're not working well! I am not in love with Camilla! Okay? Stop telling-"

"I don't trust you! Whatever you say, it's not going to change whatever I think! I. Don't. Trust. You."

Silence. A very deafening silence followed.

After awhile of just staring at each other, he finally spoke up.

"I get it... You don't trust me... But can't you see that I'm telling the truth-"

"What did Camilla want?" I cut him off again.

"She just wanted to apologise, she came asking to see you-"

"So you hugged her because she wanted to see me?"

"She hugged me because I told her that whatever is in the past stays and remains In the past... I've forgiven her, we were all part of Rafael's victims... Okay?"

I bit my lower lip... Still not enough, he was picking his words.

"Am I one of Rafael's victims? Is there something you might want to tell me? I need to know everything... If you want me to trust you... You have to tell me everything.. what are you all hiding from me... If you do not tell me... I can't trust you."

He sighed, running a hand through his hair in frustration. "Rebecca- I can't-"

"Tell me? How the hell do you expect me to trust you, If you won't tell me the whole truth? How am I supposed to believe that last night wasn't a joke to you?"

"It wasn't a joke Rebecca! I really do lo-"

"I don't want to listen to anymore lies! This was all a mistake! I was so stupid to think that you really-" I choked on the upcoming tears.

"Rebecca please don't do this, you're turning the whole situation into something that is not... Believe me, Camilla means nothing to me, I-"

"You don't have to explain! What am I to you anyways? Just some church girl who you finally had your way with-"

"Stop saying that! What the hell is wrong with you? Listen to-" He moved closer but I moved back, thanking God that there wasn't a wall behind me this time. "Why are you doing this to me?"

"Tell me the truth... I want to know everything."

"I can't tell you, you don't understand-"

"What don't I understand? Huh? Tell me? What's so hard in just opening up? Or are you just so selfish that you think if you tell me, I'll leave? Well guess what? If you don't tell me, then I'm afraid I'll just have to-"

"If he doesn't want to tell you... Then I guess I should." Camilla said, walking into the room.

"Just get out Camilla... Not now." Emeliano seethed out.

"Why don't we just tell her? She'll come to know soon anyways!" Camilla muttered, looking from Emeliano to me. "I'm your sister, Rebecca."

Yeah! I know!!! Figured it out on my own!

"Is that it?" I asked. "I'm pretty sure I've figured that out already."

Camilla sighed. "Trust me, that's the least of it. This is one messed up family problem you're about to know... But I guess I'll just drop the bomb from the source."

"Camilla don't-" Emeliano was beginning to say, but Camilla cut him off.

"What's the point in hiding it?" She shrugged and turned back to me.

The look on her face only told me that whatever she was about to say, was definitely going to turn my whole life upside freaking down.

She sighed before finally dropping the big as hell bomb!

"Marcos is your brother."
