lucia was twelve when her father remarried.
she was a beautiful woman, but it was obvious that her father didn't love her as much as his first wife.
as much as he tried to, he couldn't.
he tried his best to erase her out of his mind but every time he saw lucia, all memories flew back into his brain.
his second wife was aware of that fact.
she didn't complain though - she also didn't blame lucia.
she was understanding and loved lucia as if she were her own.
she was just happy that he agreed to the marriage.
that was everything she needed.
lucia had no secrets in front of her father and her stepmother.
she trusted them with everything.
at the age of fifteen, her heart changed.
strange emotions she'd never experienced before overwhelmed her like a hurricane.
every time she was around, lucia's smile turned ten times brighter.
her gaze softened at sight of her and her cheeks reddened everytime her name fell from her lips.
lucia became completely infatuated with her first love as her world revolved around the girl who only saw her as a friend.
being the clueless fool when it came to love, she stumbled home and asked her parents for advice on how to deal with it.
that's when she realized that
some things were better left unsaid.
