Chapter 30

"Uh, Luke. I think we should talk." I sit up and turn on the light. Luke sits up straight, and gives me a warm small, indicating that he's listening.

"I think w-" I was cut off by my Mother's phone call, which I had a few ideas on why she was calling.

"Hello Mother. Is everything alright?" I ask softly. My Mother sighs, purely because she's in a strong court of anger.

"No, everything isn't alright, Maria. I don't know what the bloody hell happened to you! Quite frankly I hate cursing, but you have gotten me in mood for it." Tears strolled down my eyes. I hate when Mother gets in these types of moods. I've never been spoken to like this before. It's either Chloe or Andre.

I guess it's my turn now.

"Mother, listen. We can discuss this tomorrow. I'm going to have to take a plane home. The flight had to be rescheduled." I tried changing the subject.

"No, Maria. We will discuss this now. I understand you're going through a stage where you discover yourself...with others, but you don't need to boast about it. Dante and I didn't raise you like that." My Mother continued the chat.

"Mother, please. I'm tired. May we please discuss this tom-"

"No, Marie! I am no-" I hang up on my Mother, and wiped some of the tears off my face, and walked back into Luke's room.

"You alright?" He asked, looking up from his phone.

This is where I choose to tell him now, and make things award in the moments of now and tomorrow morning; or choose to tell him tomorrow morning and just go home.

"Uh, yep. All good, let's go back to bed." I got back into bed and ignored the fact that this was probably going to be the last moment I'll be able to treasure.

"Goodnight, Princess. I love you." Luke kissed my forehead.

"Goodnight, I love you."

I woke up with the sound of my phone going off. I took hold of my phone, reading what was on the screen.

A text from Chloe showed itself.

From Chloe:

Missing you. Get home, please. Mum is going crazy.

Received at 7:31am

It was weird that Chloe was awake. She usually sleeps in. I ignored the fact that my sister was up so early, and looked to my side to see Luke asleep like a little angel.

God, why choose someone so perfect for me to break up with?

To Chloe:

I know. I need to tell Luke first, but I'll be on my way by 10:00am. Love you.

Sent at 7:34am

I got up out of bed, facing my body to the closet mirror and staring at myself. I couldn't get over at how beautiful Luke looked. That is, when I was just looking at him. When I looked at myself with him, I practically gaged.

Now I'm not so innocent when I say that.

I headed downstairs to find Diego home. I smiled to myself, before taking a seat on the bench. Diego turned around, and gave me a blank look. I was utterly confused, considering all I did was smile at him.

"Good morning." I spoke with worry but politeness in my voice.

"Your father called. He's not happy with you."
