Can't Help But Suspect You...
Chapter 4
Viviana
What are you doing here?
Oriana
I'm moving here today so I thought of visiting you since you weren't well yesterday.
Viviana
Ooh, Aisla said you were the one who brought me back, please come inside.
Viviana
And please take a seat, these two are your friends I presume, nice to meet you two.
Rhea
Nice to meet you Viviana! I'm Rhea.
Ellis
And I'm Ellis, I hope you're well now.
Viviana
Hmm, I'm doing great! No need to worry.
Oriana
Viviana, I bought some cakes for you and for your friends. I didn't know the exact number of cakes I should buy so I bought many.
Viviana
Thank you, I was going to make some tea for us, do you all want some?
Viviana
What about you, Ana?
Viviana
Okay! I'm going to prepare it, oh and there are more people that will be coming.
Viviana
Hope you don't mind.

Viviana

Viviana
I missed you so much!
Viviana
Haha, come here Sevyn.
Aisla
Yeah, he just came home from work, he's a photographer.
Aisla
So, he usually go to many place to take pictures, sometimes people asked him to take pictures for them too.
Aisla

Viviana
Ooh, that's Ana, she helped me yesterday so she came to see how I am feeling today, and these two are her friends.
Viviana
They bought many cakes, so we can eat them now since everyone is here!
Viviana
I already prepared the tea.
Viviana
Victor, you should take a seat.
You must be tired.
Everyone sat down and Viviana is bringing the tea and cakes
Viviana
Ana, the cakes seem delicious!
Viviana
We should taste them!
Aisla
There are cheesecakes? I will take one then!

Sevyn
Can I eat the éclair?? pleaseee
Viviana
Sure then, Victor want one too?
Viviana
I will take the red velvet then, I will share with them.
Oriana
No need, I'm not hungry.
Ellis
And we already bought for us.
Viviana
Oh, that's good then but Ana, you have to eat something.
Oriana
I will eat later, don't worry.
Viviana
No, breakfast is the most important meal therefore you should eat something!
Oriana
Oh, if you say so then I will take just a small piece.
Killian
Oh, by the way what's their name? The boy and the other girl?
Killian
Ellis? That's a beautiful name.
[𝑆𝑚𝑖𝑙𝑒]
Sevyn
The cake is delicious! Thank you sister!
Oriana
No problem sweety, I will bring more in the future if you like cakes, but you should eat healthy foods as well, ok?
Sevyn
Yes! Mama, I will get many cakes now, and I will eat vegetables from now!
Viviana
That's a good girl.
Rhea
We should go now Ellis.
Oriana
I will go with you two then.
Viviana
It's still early though, why don't you stay a bit more?
Ellis
I wish we could, but Rhea and I have some work.
Viviana
That's unfortunate, but come next time.
Sevyn
You're going sister?
Oriana
Yeah, but I can come play with you later, my room right next to yours.
Oriana
Yeah, I forgot to tell you haha.
Sevyn
Why don't you stay then?
Viviana
Yeah, you don't have anything to do right?
Oriana
But your son just came, you all must spend some time together.
Victor
You can stay! It's nice for Sevyn to know more people except us too.
Oriana
Well, if you don't mind then I can stay.
Ellis
We're going then, bye everyone!
Sevyn
Let's go play! Brother come play too!
Victor
Your name is Ana, right?
Victor
Nice to meet you Ana!
Oriana
Nice to meet you two!
Victor
Mama didn't have guests for a long time so it's good that you all came, it's all lively.
Victor
You should tell your friends to come again.
Oriana
Yeah sure, oh and you should see if your mother eats well.
Oriana
She wasn't well yesterday.
Victor
But this month was the month when my other mama was found dead..
Victor
She usually doesn't eat that much because of that so she tend to fall unconscious.
Victor
Even though we tell her to eat something, she wouldn't..
Victor
I'm very worried for her, especially now, sometimes she can't control herself so I think she might take her life...
Oriana
It must be hard for her, but she is trying to hang on for you two.
Oriana
I will try to talk to her, but since I'm a stranger I don't think she will listen to me.
Victor
Thank you, talking to someone helps me.
Victor
I didn't have people to talk to at work.
Victor
Sometimes I tell brother Killian, but I find it more comfortable to talk to strangers, I don't know why..
Oriana
I had a friend like that, I was sitting alone then suddenly she came and started talking to me.
Oriana
We exchanged numbers and became good friends.
Victor
Really? Where is she now?
Oriana
I don't know, we cut ties for certain reasons..
Sevyn
Brother, Sister look what I created with the lego! A castle!
Oriana
Wow, Sevyn!
It's beautiful!
Victor
Yes! And you're the queen who will stay in that castle right?
Sevyn
Mama is the queen, I'm the princess and you're the prince!
Oriana and Victor started laughing
Oriana
Indeed, your mama is the queen! And you two are her sweet princess and prince!
After playing for some time
Sevyn
I want to drink water!
Oriana
I will get some, Victor where is the kitchen?
Victor
Just go straight, you'll find it at the left.
After going to the kitchen
Viviana
Oh Ana, you want something?
Oriana
Yes, Sevyn and Victor want some water.
Viviana
Aah okay, I will pour it for you.
Oriana
Viviana, can I say something?
Oriana
You should take care of yourself, and eat well too. Especially now.
Viviana
Victor told you, right?
Oriana
Yeah, but don't be mad at him please!
Viviana
Don't worry I won't, even though you barely know me or them, you're worried.
Oriana
I mean it's uh it's normal I guess..
Viviana
Haha, why are you embarrassed?
Viviana
It's a nice feeling to know that people cares for me..
Viviana
Can I talk to you for a bit?
Victor
Sister! You're taking a lot of time, are you lost?
Oriana
I will give them their water then I will come.
Viviana
Okay, playing that long must have make them thirsty haha.
Oriana
Viviana wanted to talk to me, I will come to play again after, okay?
After going to the Kitchen
Viviana
Let's go in my room.
Viviana
We would be more comfortable then sitting in the kitchen and talk.
Viviana
What were you thinking? Haha

Viviana
Did you ever have girlfriend or boyfriend?
Viviana
You should get one, then you have more reason to live happily.
Viviana
I had one, her name was Sylvie.
Viviana
I loved her very much and still does..
Viviana
But suddenly, on the day where we wanted to go on a date she disappeared.
Viviana
I was worried, I told the police and they started searching for her and later they found her body in the forest...
Viviana
I was devastated, I didn't know what to do, I didn't know what and how to tell Victor and Sevyn..
Viviana
I even thought of ending my life but then, I thought about my kids and friends, my kids wouldn't be able to live properly..
Viviana
I was lost, but after some time I was able to handle myself more.
Viviana
But still, I couldn't bring myself to eat when that month is approaching, the month when Sylvie died..
Viviana
I tend to lost control and can't do anything right!
Oriana
Calm down, take a deep breath..
