Jana's POV
Emilia decides to go home to Matei claiming she's 'shaken' but we both know that this kind of stuff doesn't scare her. So Carys and I wander around the city a little bit. She still seems off.
"What time is your train tomorrow?"
"Eleven," she's acting so cold towards me, maybe it's not to do with Matei, maybe I did something wrong.
"Okay," I stop in the middle of the path, "This has to stop. I know something's bugging you. You're not just tired." She doesn't say anything. "Have I done something? Or said something? You've been weird with me all day."
"I'm fine," she keeps walking, I practically have to yank her back to get her to look at me.
"I know you're lying, instincts."
"Okay, okay fine yeah I'm upset, but I don't want to talk about it right now," she shouts. "Let's just go back to the flat," she walks off again. In fact she storms off, I follow a few feet behind her, giving her some space.
Now I'm worried, what could possibly be upsetting her so much that she can't talk to me about it? When we get back to the flatshe goes straight to my room, ignoring Matei and Emilia's greetings and slamming the door behind her.
"Did you guys have a fight?" Emilia asks, Matei stares at the TV, still acting weird.
"What's going on Matei? I just want the truth and she's not giving it to me."
"What makes you think I know?"
"You've both been weird all day, just tell me. I'm sick of the lies."
"It's not my place," he gets up and goes to Katrina's room.
"Matei!" I shout.
"Maybe, just give them some space." Emilia tries to calm me down.
"Do you know what's going on? Did he say something to upset her?"
"No, I don't know anything. But don't be so quick to blame my brother."
"You're lying, I can tell." Whenever she lies her bottom lip shakes.
"Well, I don't want to be involved so, ask your girlfriend," she turns away from me. I storm into my room to find her standing by the window, crying her eyes out.
"It's driving me mad. Just talk to me, you know first hand how important it is to-"
"Talk about my feelings, I know."
"So, why can't you?"
"Because this time is different," she won't look at me.
"How?"
"Every other time something bad happens, it's not my fault, I always blame myself but it's never ever my fault, I never do anything wrong. Except this time I did!" For a second something crosses my mind, but it can't be that, it just can't be.
"What did you do?" The horrible thought pounds against my skull. I see the veins darken on Carys' face.
"You're going to hate me, you'll never want to see me again."
"Just tell me," the dark veins appear on me, my eyes turn yellow. I'm angry.
"I kissed Matei."
