I just ate three pieces, tiny, of pizza. I was literally so hungry I was about to eat my fingers.

Which would be bad cuz then how could I update?

Btw this note was from 6/25

Alex POV

After we got ice cream with the boys we returned to Cristiano's. And Katia was going to leave. Dolores, having rode over with Katia was also leaving.

"Bye Alex, so nice to meet you." Katia said hugging me

"You too." I said softly

Dolores put her hand on my cheek as she went outside "Good girl. You are a good girl."

When they were gone Junior's eyes were half closed. Cristiano swiped him up in his arms "Someone is ready for bed. I'll be right back." He said

He went upstairs to go put Junior down for the night and I went into the family room.

I sat down and sighed I wonder if there is any news yet?

I'd check tomorrow, more likely to he something.

"Okay so, since you're okay with my sister asking you questions, is it my turn?" Cristiano said startling me

Well that depends on what you're gonna ask me. I want to say, Katia asked me generic stuff, what my favorite color was, my favorite movie, when did I start soccer. Him on the other hand, worries me.

"I guess so.." I said bracing myself

"She covered all the basics, and well so have I actually. Alright well, how big is your family?" He started

Please don't go down the family route.

"Just four. My parents me and my brother." I answered

"No I mean like including aunts, uncles, cousins, grandparents." He clarified

"Oh, well hold on let me count," I mentally counted in my head. "If I'm not forgetting anyone and I don't think I am, twenty total. Six on my dads side and minus my immediate family, twelve on my mom's."

"Tell me about your immediate family, what are your parents like? Or your brother?" He said coming to sit next to me

"Do we really have to talk about me? Let's talk about you. Tell me about you." I said my throat feeling like it's closing up.

He looked at me skeptically "I've told you all about me. All there is to know actually."

He has told me a lot, I just don't want to talk about my family. It's mine, not anyone elses. So why should I tell others about my family?

"I'm sure there us something else. Anything." I tried

"Why do you do that? We've been here before. I start to ask about you and then you try to change the subject to me."

"I don't do that." I defended

I do do that. I know I do.

"You do!" He said getting irritated

"I do not!" I sighed "Why don't we just change the subject? To something else. Anything else. Please."

He let out a bitter laugh "There it is again."

"Why are you getting upset with me? I didn't do anything." I said in a small voice

"Alex, I just want to get to know you better." He said running a hand down his face.
