👯 GRACE 👯
" MOM ! I said shocked .
'did you just say mom Natalie ? I asked as I cried .
" Grace " she tried to hold my hand and I pulled my hand off as I cried bitterly.
" We're step sister's okay .. I wanted to tell you I just " she cried as she ran her fingers in her hair .
" Grace " she tried to touch me and I pulled my hand off .
" And Gina ? I asked .
" You both share the same Dad " she said and I looked at her in shock .
" We're not twins ? I asked shocked .
How is that possible .
Did Massimo Know all of this ? Is that why he wants to marry me ?
" How can you say Gina and I are not twins ? It doesn't make sense Nat , one can't tell the difference between Gina and I if we sit down in one place and I look like my mom ? It's not possible ok ,the Gina I saw tonight is a spitting image of mom and i " I said and she rubbed her forehead.
" I'm not supposed to tell you anything , because the less you know the better for all of us " she said and I laughed bitterly.
" Safer ? I've never been safe ... Natalie , ever since I grew old enough to know I'm grace Moreno I've not been safe ...so what would make me unsafe now ? I'm already in danger because I'm sleeping in the bed of the Don of the Italian mafia " I said and she looked at me.
" Ask mom " she said and I cried out frustratedly .
" Natalie why are you doing this to me ? You've always cared about me and looked out for me ..." I trailed.
" That's exactly what I'm doing even now ,I'm looking out for you ... okay"
" Is that why Massimo wants to marry me ? What's my connection with the Russian mafia ? All these hidden truths is Making me run mad Natalie " I said and she looked at me.
" I know grace , You don't deserve any of this , Mom doesn't even recognize me as her daughter ...I had to also start fending for myself at an early age , I joined the business at 13 " she said as tears rolled outta her eyes and she quickly wiped them .
" Mom doesn't even know which of the guys she was with got her Pregnant ...." She said and at that point ,I understand why mom gave her way a lot back at home .
' you need to leave this business Natalie ...I hate it , I hate the fact that you have to sell yourself for money ..." I said and Yvonne was just busy sipping some alcohol on the opposite couch .
" So you won't tell us anything ? She asked her with a deep frown on her face .
" I can't put grace in further danger ..." She said softly
" Asking her mom would still put her in the danger ...so " Yvonne shrugged.
" Just stay away from Gina " she said and kissed my cheeks lovingly .
" I'm glad we're sisters " I said and we smiled at each other. I understood Natalie's point and I didn't wanna push it , if she thinks hiding the truth is for the better ,I'd let it be .
" C'mon we gotta go, Before Massimo starts looking everywhere for us " she said and I rolled my eyes.
" That annoying brother of yours" I spat angrily and Natalie chuckled.
