Today is the day.
The day where everything reaches the surface. Where she either hates me or she thanks me.
I don't really see any other alternative to it.
I had invited Melinda over to the house. It was the safest place to have this conversation as you never know who could be listening.
She had been here for a total of 20 minutes and I couldn't bring myself to ask anything. I couldn't bring myself to speak.
We have been sat inside of my office and we haven't said anything other than the casual starter conversation of "how was the trip" or "how are you doing?"
I know she's waiting for me to speak and I appreciate that she hasn't tried to rush me into it.
Today is the day where I finally know the truth behind that pain she hides.
"I-" I take a deep breath in before trying again.
"I want to know what happened to her. I want know why she hides so much pain. I want to know the reason behind it." I felt my heart constrict inside of my chest as the words left my mouth.
I am moments away from learning about the harsh things my little Aphy has lived through and it's making my heart pound inside of my chest.
I watch her eyes take in my form and I had to stop my hands from shaking.
"What happened to her is not something that's easy to discuss and I want to know that you're 100% sure this is something you can bare with her. The things that happened to her isn't something a lot of people can stomach. Not even me. So before you make your decision are you sure you want to carry this burden with her? Are you sure this is something you can handle and not place the blame of your curiosity onto her? If not I can walk out right now and I wouldn't hold it against you." Her words really stuck with me but I had already made up my mind. I knew what I needed to do.
I need to bare this burden with her. I don't want her to be alone anymore.
"I knew exactly what I was signing up for when I called you. I knew it would be bad and I know it's going to take a toll on me, but if that means she isn't alone inside of her head anymore then I'd take the opportunity 10 times over to make sure my baby sister gets the life she deserves." I tel her seriously.
She sends me a sad smile and nods her head.
She sat up straight in her chair and looked me straight into my eyes before taking a deep breath.
