Broken - A pretty face doesn't cover an ugly heart

53

53.

After a long night, the sun has finally appeared. For some strange reason to the little Isabella, everyone seemed uncomfortable on the breakfast table.

- Auntie!

She called, blowing a kiss to Barbra, that usually would answer the most lovely way. She smiled to the kid, who was back to eat her fruits.

Nobody was speaking. They finished the meal in silence, and each one of them found something to do.

Anna took Isabella to a walk, and Evan asked if he could join. Isabella answered for Anna, so he went together. But he and Anna didn't communicate. It was only Anna/Isabella and Isabella/Evan talk.

Barbra watched while the three of them were going through the propriety, and entered Anna's room.

She founded Anna's cellphone in her bed, and she started her plan. She was happy that Anna never putted passwords on her phone.

"Hey handsome"

She waited for an answer.

"Anna?"

"Who else?"

"I thought you were walking with your daughter"

"So? I can walk and type"

"I guess. What do you want?"

"You"

The answer took longer this time.

"What?"

"You read it, I want you Ryan"

"When did you change your mind?"

"Since that day... And now I can't stand being so close to you... I need you Ryan"

"God, this is so fucked up, what am I supposed to do with Barbra?"

Barbra was furious at the mention of her name. But she continued.

"I don't know. Find something to distract her"

"I will. When can we see each other?"

"Be in my room on twenty minutes from now"

"WHAT? Do you want people to see us?"

"Stop being so scared. Nothing will happen. I can't wait anymore"

"Fine. I miss you so much"

"I miss you too"

"I'll be waiting"

"Don't worry, I'll be there"

Barbra had a psychotic look on her face. She erased all messages sent and received from Ryan, and ran outside, she had only 20 minutes to drag Anna inside.

She found them standing next to the horses, and then she spoke to Anna.

- Anna, don't you want to change and get in the pool? Enjoy the sun! Let me play with this beauty a little!

Anna looked confused to Barbra, but she knew her sister was crazy about her daughter, so she didn't find nothing weird about it.

- Ok. Isabella, stay with aunt Barbra, ok sweetie?

- Yeyyy!

Isabella completely adored Barbra as well.

- Where's Evan?

Barbra asked.

- He was drinking water... Oh, he's coming, look.

- Ok, go change!
