His Black Rose

The Truth.

Amelia.

I don't know if I made the right choice or not, but it doesn't matter if I get ready or not... I have to know the truth, to know about my real mother.

I'm not really sure if Leo will come over after that weird call, I mean I just said I'm ready and then hung up on him, I didn't even greet and ask if he was okay with coming over. Oh my gosh what if he was busy and here I am being rude, I was so rude gosh ...

My phone pings alerting me of a new notification, I check it and it's from Leo, my heart starts beating rapidly as I check his text, what if he's angry and ... oh gosh let me just check.

I finally breathe when I see that he's at the door, wait that was so fucken fast, damn language Lia. I scold myself as I look for my comfortable shoes.

I put on my sleepers and check on Angie who's sleeping so peacefully on my bed, I wanted to do this with her but I don't wanna wake her up, she looks like she really needs this break.

I make my way to the main door and open up for Leo.

"Amelia" he says with his deep voice looking in my eyes, I guess he's trying to read me through my eyes, I just stand there getting so lost in his eyes.. I take a look at his face, he looks like he hasn't been sleeping at all but still looks so fucken handsome.

"Sweetheart, are you okay?" I snap out if it as I hear his voice.

" uhm sorry, come in" I welcome him in and close the door.

" Uh would you like something to drink?" I ask as, I'm so nervous and I don't even know how to act around him.. get a grip Lia.

" water would be fine, thanks" .

I dash to the kitchen to get two bottles of water, you can do this Lia, you just have to listen and take it from there nothing much, I assure myself.

"Here" I hand Leo a bottle of water and take a sit opposite him.

"Thanks, uh you said you're ready.. what exactly are you ready for Amelia?" He ask with a somewhat concerned tone, I must be hallucinating.

"To know the truth I guess, I can't run away from it, I need to know everything and accept what I have to accept then move on with my life"

"It's not gonna be easy, but I know you can do it" he says as if he knows me..

"Well I don't even know where to start"  he ruffles his hair and let's out a sigh.

I must admit he looks cute with his hair out of place, no focus Lia focus.

"Let's start with how you knew all this, I mean what made you to start investigating me?" I ask .

" well, we investigate everyone who joins us at urban eats, we have to know if you're not a spy, a criminal and all the other things" Leo says.

I don't belive that's all thou, I mean it seems like he did a deep investigation on me and that means for whatever reasons he had to do it, it was just big.
What did he find? Mmh I wonder.

"I feel like there's something else you're not telling me regarding that but okay" his jaw clenches .

"You can tell me about my mother"

"Li-ya-na that was her name, I'm sorry I don't know how to pronounce it, I didn't find much about your mother yet, but I know that Primrose is not your real mother, Primrose was adopted into your mother's family that's how they became siblings, sweetheart, your step mom is not who you think she is"

I don't know why, the fact that he said she's not who I think she is made my heart race, is she that bad than I know? What has she done for Leo to say this about her, I don't think I wanna know all this anymore do I?

"What is it Leo?" I ask while holding my breath

"I suspect she has a hand in your mother's death, and I don't think she's the mastermind behind it, maybe she is but she's not alone." He says while looking at me with an intense look on his face

"What do you mean by that?" I whisper but atleast he heard me.

" your mother's death is very... odd, apparently she died because of a fire, but they never found her body, only asshes with some of her DNA so they just assumed she burned severely until she turned to ashes" oh my God.

"That's not all, there's one report which says she died with a baby, a two months old baby girl, but I think this one report was fabricated, actually I think all of them but the baby one is true cause you're that baby Amelia" what?

I feel my head spinning, all this doesn't make sense to me, my mother died by a fire...how.. it must have been so painful. My head starts hurting so bad and I start to see black dots as I slip into the darkness, and the last thing I heard was Leo shouting my name.
