Episode 4

"Upon entering the house, I see a figure in the living room turning on the light. I see my brother Black. Upon seeing me, he gets up and walks towards me"

"Black" What happened to you, Adelina? Why are you in a clinic gown?

"Adelina" I'm fine, brother, don't worry. It was just a small cut, but they wanted me to stay. You know how exaggerated doctors are, but I left. I'm fine.

"I show him my wound on my hand while giving him a fake smile. He takes my cheek"

"Black" My star, you can lie to everyone else, but not to me. Tell me what happened. I already heard that the engagement was called off. Did he do something to you? Don't keep things to yourself!

"Adelina" Yes, it was called off. I realized that he doesn't love me the way I love him. Why waste time, don't you think?

"I walk towards the sofa. As I sit down, he walks towards me, kneeling. He looks me in the eyes"

"Black" Why were you at the clinic? Did he try to hurt you? Tell me, Adelina, and I'll kill him right now.

"Adelina" No, he has nothing to do with it. I already told you, I just got cut, nothing more. Please don't worry.

"Black" Of course I'm going to worry, but it hurts that you don't trust me. I thought I was your refuge, that you counted on me.

"I stare into those blue eyes for a few seconds until I can't take it anymore. I break down crying like a little girl. I hug him tightly as he strokes my hair"

"Adelina" I lost him, Black. I lost the love of my life. I lost my heart. I don't know if I can keep living.

"Black" Adelina, I know this is very hard for you. You had a 5-year relationship with him. You helped him grow, you lifted him out of poverty, you gave him everything. But you are a strong woman. I know that with time you will forget him. A man will come who is worthy of you.

"He pulls away from me. I bite my lip as he wipes away my tears"

"Adelina" I'm not talking about him, Black. I... I was pregnant. I couldn't save him. It was all my fault. If I hadn't gotten so angry, my baby would still be with me. I want to die, brother. He was what I had left of that love. I loved that baby. I had him in my womb. He would respond every time I talked to him. I felt his little kicks. It was my damn fault I lost him. Now what am I going to do? My soul hurts.

"Upon hearing my star's words, a rage consumes me. What did that damned Massimiliano do to make them break up and for her to lose her baby? He's going to pay for it. No one makes my sister cry."

"Black" Tell me, Adelina, what did Massimiliano do to make you break up and fill you with rage?

"Adelina" He... he cheated on me. Yesterday I went to visit him and give him the news, and I found him with another woman. He loves her.

"No matter how much I try to calm down, I can't. My tears keep falling, my heart is racing. When I look at Black, I see how his expression is of anger, his eyes darken"

"Black" That bastard is going to learn that you don't mess with my sister. With what I plan to do to him, he'll wish he had never been born.

"Adelina" No, Black, I beg you, don't kill him. Let him be happy with her. In the end, it was my fault. He never loved me. Deep down, I knew it, but I denied it. I clung to him, believing that maybe one day he would love me as I love him. How stupid I was.

"Black" Even with everything he did to you, you still protect him. I can't believe it.

"Adelina" As I take his hand, I say, promise me you won't kill him.

"So strong is the love she feels for that idiot that she protects him, she prefers that he be happy with that woman. I won't kill him, but I myself will make sure that he is not happy. I will make his life impossible, so that he himself will want to take his insignificant life"

"Black" I promise you. Now you must go to your room and take a shower. You must rest.

"I pick her up and take her to her room. She sits on her bed while I take care of preparing her tub. After a few minutes, I help her bathe"

"Adelina" Black, I ask you not to tell anyone.

"Black" But Adelina, my parents should know. They will support you.

"Adelina" No, they are already stressed with the triplets. I don't want to give them more problems, little brother, please let this be a secret between the two of us, promise me!

"Black" Fine.

"Minutes later, she is lying in her bed while I lie down next to her until she falls asleep. I don't plan to leave her alone, so I fall asleep with her"
