"are you gonna tell me what this is all about?" joey asked as he pulled me into our bedroom. i raised my eyebrows and shook my head.
"i have no idea what you're talking about." i cross my arms and look at him. he glared at me and shook his head before sitting down on the edge of the bed.
"you're being distant."
"i'm being distant? you haven't been home in days and your daughter has been fucking worried about you!" i start to raise my voice. i stood in front of him.
"if you're going to fuck around the least you could do is visit her." he looked up at me. he stood up and walked closer to me, his head few inches away from mine.
"is that what you think i've been doing?" he asked as he looked down at me. i looked at his lips before looking into his eyes.
"it's what i know." i whispered as i looked down.
"i'm not fucking with anyone." he says before walking past me. he stood in the middle of the room and exhaled deeply as he placed his hands on his hips. i turn to face him.
"then look me in the eyes and tell me you didn't fuck anyone while i was locked up." i looked at him. maybe it was all in my head, maybe he did stay loyal, but if i ever admitted that, even he knew he'd be lying. he looked at me for a few seconds before his eyes trailed down to the ground.
he didn't say anything which said a lot about him. which meant it was true, he slept with someone while i was away. tears started to swell up in my eyes, but i quickly wiped them away.
"that's what i thought." i whisper before walking out of the room. i slam the door right behind me and slide down slowly. i stare at the wall and start breathing heavily.
i wanted to cry so badly, but i didn't let myself do it. i shed too much tears this whole week, i don't think i could do it. i heard footsteps climb up the stairs. i shot my head over to the stairs and saw roman standing there. i quickly got up and rushed into his arms and hugged him.
"i missed you so fucking much." i mumbled into his shoulders.
"i missed you too sis." he said.

"i should've told you, i know but it wasn't my place to. i came home one day with leo and we both caught him making out with this girl. i figured he'd tell you, but i guess he didn't."
i rub romans shoulder softly. we were both sitting in the kitchen table, talking. "it's okay roman, i understand why you didn't tell me."
"have you heard news about leo?" i shook my head. he looked down.
"i should've stayed. i just couldn't see him like that again. i miss my boyfriend so much it hurts." i frown and pull him into a hug.
"did you go see him?" he nodded and pulled away, as did i.
"i also saw mark there, didn't know those two were close." he chuckled a bit.
"we made amends and forgave each other." he says making me smile. "i figured it was a bad time to kill him right there on the spot again so." i laughed and shook my head.
"well saturday is lilia's birthday and we're having a huge party for her so i'm hoping you'll come."
"i wouldn't wanna miss it for the world." he says. "are you still planning on adopting her by the way?" i sigh and shrug.
