Five months after... *Part 4* The finale

Chapter 33 ~ We need to help Violetta, Camila

Francesca ~
I was meeting Camila at the restaurant where we needed to talk about Violetta and her drinking problem, as I sat down in front of her we ordered something to drink.

Camila: Francesca, what are we doing here, I was with Broduey.

Francesca: I'm sorry, but we need to talk about Violetta.

Camila: What about?

Francesca: Camila, Violetta has a drinking problem as she is depressed.

Camila: She's fine, Francesca.

Francesca: What? Camila she is no way near fine Leon is talking about taking her to rehab even worse he's not going to let her look after the kids until she gets her act together.

Camila: Well, maybe rehab will help her.

Francesca: Camila, she's our best friend we can't let Leon go through this alone so e are going to take in turns looking after, Maxi and Naty are doing the first shift, Diego and I will do the afternoon and then Leon will take over in the evening.

Camila: She is a grown woman she doesn't need babysitting.

Francesca: Fine, don't help her but Broduey is helping her so is Herman and Angie, so you do what you like.

Camila: Why don't you just bin all the alcohol in the house?

Francesca: Leon's done that.

Camila: Great then you don't need me.

She got up and left, Francesca shook her head as she couldn't believe that Camila was being like this even though Ludmila is helping.

Francesca went over to Violetta and Leon's house; I knocked on the door and Maxi and Naty answered.

Maxi: Hey, Francesca.

Francesca: Well, how is she?

Maxi: Leon's with her but he's going to tell the kids the truth about their stay with Herman and Angie.

Francesca: Do you think that's a good idea, we don't want to worry the kids that's the least we need.

Naty: And Angie's pregnant the least she needs is this stress on her.

Francesca: She'll be fine.

Leon came downstairs with his jacket on and looked at them.

Maxi: Well, how is she?

Francesca: Does she need a drink of water?

Naty: Have you talked to her about getting help?

Leon: Guys, she's fine, okay? She's still asleep and I took her up a glass of water she's fine, okay? Just relax.

Francesca: Do you think you should leave her alone?

Leon: Well, I must pick up Leo and Grace, so you guys stay and keep an eye on her, but I think she's going to be asleep for a while.

Maxi: Well, you must trust her.

Leon: Guys, if I didn't trust her then I would never have gotten together with her for all the times she's messed up, but I've messed up to there were times over been at my worst, but she never gave up on me so I'm not going to give up on her.

Maxi: But Leon you don't have a drinking problem.

Leon: No but there were times that wasn't myself and I know what she's going through.

Francesca: Guys, let's stop talking about her as if she's not here.

Maxi: She's asleep.

Francesca: *Looking at her* She's standing on the stairs.

Violetta:  What are you guys doing here? Leon, did you invite them to watch me?

Leon: No baby, they came on their own.

Francesca: We were worried about you Violetta.

Violetta: As soon as my kids are here, I'll be fine.

Leon: Baby?

Violetta: Leon, I'm not going to drink I promise, I'm done drinking.

Leon: We've been here before Violetta.

Francesca: Yeah, are you sure you are ready to look after Grace and Leo?

Violetta: Leon, you are going to get Grace and Leo, right? 

Leon: Yes, baby, but you need to go back upstairs and rest. 

Violetta: I'm not a child Leon. 

Maxi: *Under his breath* I don't know the way she's been acting it's like she is. 

Francesca: Maxi!!! 

Violetta: Are you talking about me now? 

Leon: No, baby, go back to bed I will pick up the kids and Francesca will stay with you. 

Violetta: Why?  Don't you trust me on my own? 

Leon: Of course, I do, but...

Maxi: But you're a drunk where when your own you have a thing of grabbing a bottle. 

Leon:  Maxi!!!

Violetta: Leon?

Leon walked away and Francesca took Violetta back upstairs, while Maxi sat down on the sofa.
