My Secret

Time

we are now in Spain , as soon as we arrived at home Cris went to his room, he still mad at me

later that night my parents and sister came and of course they asked me everything, they weren't happy with what I did,

I sent a message to Nancy to tell her we were fine and safe

we both started our routine

Marshall has been calling Cristian every day, like he said, it melts my heart seeing how happy Cristian gets everytime he talks to his dad

everytime he arrives at home he asks me whether Marshall has called

time flew, and before I knew it it was July

I was preparing the meal before Marta and Cris come home

I glanced at the clock,I have 30 min more

the phone rings, I go and answer it

-"hello?"

-"Hi Vic..."-I hear a male's voice

-"Marshall?"

-"yeah..shouldn't you recognize my voice by now?"

-"I just didn't expect you to call at this time, you always call later on, Cristian is not here , he's still at school"- I say and look at the clock , it's so early there, it's 9:30 there why is he calling so early?

-"I know, I want to talk to you "

me? he never has asked to talk to me , he always asks for Cristian

-"ok.. what's up?"-I say frowning

-"I don't know if you know it, but I will be in London for 2 concerts next week and I was thinking I could visit Cristian before"

I don't say anything,I remain quiet. I was thinking.. I didn't want to see him did I? it was too soon

-"Vic, Vic, are you there?"

-"yep"

-"what do you say? I mean if you don't mind of course, maybe you disagree with this too"- he says with anger in his voice

-"Marshall.. don't start"

-"I don't start I didn't finish..."

-"Marshall please"- I cut him out

-"whatever.."

-" Cris will be so happy if you come so yes of course you can come and see him"- I say with a smile thinking about how happy Cris is going to be when he knows it

-"but you can't say anything to him though"- he demands

-"huh? why?"

-"because I want to surprise him"

-"ohm ok.."

-"one last thing, I don't know too many places in Madrid, do you mind if I go to your house? I think it's better than bringing him to the hotel, so he can shows me his school and other places, I mean if you don't mind having to see me"

I roll my eyes

-"why the hell do you say that?"- I say annoyed

-"because you don't like it , because you remember everything, each moment we spent together, you remember everytime I kissed you , all the fun we had together, the good moments, and you don't want that because you need to hate me " I could feel he was grinning

-"Marshall! I'm not going to talk about this again"

-"it's true tho"

-"no it's not , the only thing I remember when I see you is how much you hurt me, how you used me and the tears I spilled for you"-I had to make an effort to not to cry

-" how many fucking times more are you going to bring that out?you hurt me too you know?"- he yells

somebody is ringing the bell, it must be my sister and Cris

-"I'm coming"

-"Marshall, hold on please"

-"Hi vic"- my sister says and hugs me

-"Hi mum.. "- he says and kiss my cheek

and he says I have the phone in my hand

-"are you talking to dad?!!"

I nod with a smile

-"Hi dadd"- he says excited taking the phone and walking off

I note my sister glancing at me

-"what?"

-" you know what"- she tells me off

-" oh please, you too? I've had enough with Marshall.."

-"what happened?"-

-" I had an argument with him, like always,I'm sick of this! everytime we are alone , we argue"- I say pissed

-"maybe because there's sexual attraction between you, maybe you two should talk about it"

-"no! no way, everytime we talk we end up arguing, and now he says I don't want to see him because I'm still in love with him"

-" and are you?"- she says amused, I bet she's having fun with this

I glance at her

Cris walks in

-"mum, dad asked me for our address, he says he has a surprise for me"

-"really? that's great babe!"-I say with a fake smile
