*~Dollores POV~*
I don't think Camilo should be keeping this a secret. I want to help, but he needs someone professional. I can be there to support him, and hopefully lead him astray from this, but I don't know for how long. I promised not to tell and he promised not to cut. If he breaks his promise, I'll have to break mine. Even if he hates me for it..
*~Pepa's POV~*
Mi amor Félix and I continue to question Antonio, being careful to not freak him out or crowd him with a mountain of questions.
"Antonio, mi hijo, what exactly did you see, querido?" I asked him in a soothing voice.
"I.. Um... I saw a person with red on them when I was looking for my plushie, but they got scared and dropped something.. metallic?" Antonio stated, twiddling his thumbs with an anxious look spread across his face.
" Do you remember who it was?" Félix questioned, getting slightly more worried now, like me.
"N-No? It was. . Dark?" Antonio was looking at something , but I couldn't tell what it was. He was avoiding eye contact.
*~Antonio's POV~*
Camilo was back and giving me a glare. Not to scare me, but to tell me not to say anything. It was a look of plead. I was scared though, but not of him.
Mami Pepa sighed and sat down on one of the chairs with me next to her. A rain cloud was visible above her head and Papi was holding a hat over me to not get me wet. Camilo had left and Dolores hadn't returned yet. Mami gave me a look to say something. I knew they wouldn't believe me so I prayed for someone, something to disrupt us. My prayer was soon answered.
"Mami!" Dollores was calling for mamacita, stepping down the stairs.
"In hear, cariño!" Mami Pepa called back. Dollores entered the dining room and sat down opposite to mamacita.
"Cam' is in bed and I am tired, can we call it a night?" Dollores asked, rubbing her eyes.
"Dios mío, What time is it?" She replied obliviously.
"11 o'clock, Mamá." Dollores said, clearly holding back a yawn.
"Okay, take your hermano up with you." Dollores nodded and I then found myself walking up the stairs, sighing out of relief.
"Antonio." Dollores had stopped at the top of the stairs, whispering to me.
" Yes? " I replied, also whispering to not to wake up the familia.
"Camilo has promised me something, and in turn I won't tell Mami and Papi, but that doesn't mean you can't. Camilo won't be in trouble, but he needs help, okay Antonio?" Dollores mumbled, as quiet as a mouse.
" Okay, What do I do, then? " I asked, wanting to help him.
"I'll tell you when it's time, okay? For now, go to bed." She whispered, speaking a little louder at the end. She walked me to my room and my toucan friend called the others to help me get up the tree quicker.
*~Dollores' POV~*
Poor Camilo. I got to bed and listened for any sign of Camilo waking up. I couldn't let him do it again.
It had been hours and I was finally satisfied, drifting into sleep.
