Jorge's pov

*I was sitting in the kitchen, eating an apple for breakfast. I would make breakfast but Tini can do it herself. Mabye I'm too mean but she is the one who wants to leave. She didn't even notice how kind we are. After a while I heard footsetps coming closer.*

T: Good morning Jorge

*No, I will play the silent game. She sat next to me and looked into my eyes.*

T: I noticed that you're avoiding me and not talking to me. I don't know what happened. Could you please tell me what is going on?

J: Look, I don't have time, it's Stephie's birthday today and I have to get ready

*I stood up and wanted to leave but she grabbed me by my arm and stopped me*

T: No, I want to know what's going on.

J: Martina, let me go

T: Tell me what happened and I will

*She insisted. I wanted to get away from her but she should know the truth.*

J: I heard you talking to yourself. That you want to leave. Why don't you do so? We tired our best to take care of you because you are a great person. But now that I heard you, I am not sure about your intention at all.

*She became speechless, her grip loosening slowly... I knew it.*

J: You don't know?

T: I-I...

*She let me go and tears started to roll down her cheeks. She sat down and burried her head in her palms.*

T: I can't.

*What? This makes no sense. I want to hug her tight and comfort her but I'm too confused to do anything. After a moment of deafening silence, I walked to my room and started getting ready for the party... the fact that I left her there is killing me but she has to think. And so do I.*
