Episode 17

I hear a knock on the door and when I look... There he is... My hands start shaking... As my heart speeds up...

Emma __ H...h...hi...have you been there long?

Izack __ Hi, no, I just got here... I knocked on the door but you didn't hear me.

Emma __ Sorry, when I'm talking to the moon I disconnect from the world....

Izack __ It's beautiful today.

Emma __ What?

Izack __ The...the...The moon is beautiful today, isn't it?

Emma __ Yes... Very beautiful....

.... But what are you doing here at this hour?

Izack __ Well, I came to see how you're doing...

Emma __ I'm fine..That is..the doctor has already discharged me...

Izack __ And why didn't you ask me to call you...?

Emma __ I didn't want to bother you...

Izack __ Understand one thing Emma... (I hold her hands that are cold) You are not a bother to me at all.. I will love taking care of you at my house...

Emma __ Are you sure? What will your people think when they know you have a.... open.......

"Izack" Don't finish that sentence Emma.... You are not that... You are not only beautiful on the inside but also on the outside.... Emma I don't want to see you putting yourself down like that.

"Emma" But that's what I am Izack....Today an employee came to bring my dinner and dropped everything because she was scared of my face...

"Izack" Tell me who she is and I'll punish her for that...

"Emma" No..Don't, it's not her fault, just look at me and admit what everyone thinks and says....

"Izack" I don't have to admit something I don't feel or think Emma... Now let's stop this conversation because I don't want to fight with you...

"Emma" It's strange to think that we seem to have known each other for a long time...

(She speaks softly looking at me)

"Izack" No..It's not.....

....

There was nothing to pack... I wore an outfit that one of the doctors brought me... She offered me her sincere friendship.

I've never had friends... I liked her, but I don't want to seem foolish...

Zuma helped me and braided my hair....

She offered to bring her daughter so I could meet her.

At the time, I even tried to argue, saying that the girl would be afraid of me (it hurts me to say that. But I've seen so many children run from me and then come back cursing me).

I say from my own experience, some children are more malicious than many adults...

...Anyway Zuma and Izack assured me that little Marina wouldn't have that reaction....

....

We arrived at his house and it's huge.... Izack took me to the guest room...

Izack __ I'll see if my mom has some pajamas to give you

Emma __ No need to wake her up at this hour... (It's already past 00:00) I can sleep like this...

Izack __ In jeans..? Wait a minute...

He leaves and I'm admiring the room, it's huge and the bed looks comfortable...

A few minutes later Izack comes back with two shirts and a pair of shorts that look like his....

Izack __ Here.. I think this will fit you... Although looking at you I think it will be too big...

Emma __ Thank you, I'll figure something out....

Izack __ I'll let you rest..see you tomorrow

Izack kissed me on the cheek and almost ran out of the room....

My body is still tired... I see two doors on the sides of the room I open the first and it's the bathroom... Curiosity gets the better of me and I open the second and it's a huge closet..but empty...

I go back to the bathroom, take a quick shower..tomorrow I'll take longer...

I pick up the shirt Gustavo gave me and his scent is impregnated in it....

💭It even seems like he just put perfume on it....

My silly smile reappears on my face....

Knock knock knock... I hear a knock on the door....

Izack __ It's.....Emma (he stares at me.. I didn't put on the shorts because they were too loose.. His shirt looks more like a dress on me... I see him swallow hard....

"I..I..I thought you were hungry..brought you this snack...."

Emma __ Oh I am...Thank you very much 😊

Izack __ Y..Yeah...you're welcome...bye
