Ray's POV
" We thought of this: you go back to your place and try to live with your mum once again and if it doesn't work out... If your mum keeps doing those horrible things to you, we would love you to be our second daughter. For real "
" Wow, Isabel, you're unbelievable! ", I shouted, " you're the sweetest person in the world!! " I hugged her.
" It's okay, Ray "
" It's a deal " I smiled bright.
" It's your turn to tell Clara when she gets back "
" I will "

After lunch I went back to the swimming pool and suddenly someone took my arm.
Lorenzo.
" Hey, Ray! " he let my arm go.
" Hi, Renz, how are you today? " I asked.
" I'm good, you? "
" I'm feeling amazing "
" I'm glad for ya " he smiled.
An awkward silence followed.
" Hey, where's Clara? "
" She's gone with the Zorba guy "
" Zorba? The amazing bartender " he laughed.
" Yeah, that guy " I confirmed.
" Maybe - maybe we should do something together? " he asked, taking my arm again.
" Do what? " I asked, taking his hands.
" I don't know, something fun " he looked straight into my eyes.
" I'm in "

Clara's POV
" We're going to Jetski " he said.
" Oh my god, no way " I smiled bright in his way.
" I love the way your eyes are sparkling " he said, taking of my sunglasses.
" Zorba please " I think I blushed.
" Come on, let's go Jetski! " he shouted and took my hand again. I remembered the first time he held my hand...

I was walking by the sea on my own. My parents were still having dinner but I was ready eating before them. Just like always. This time they had given me permission to go to the sea. Just for a walk.
Suddenly I saw someone sitting on a large boulder. His face was burried in his hands. It looked like he had cried. Or he was drunk, that was also a possibility.
I got closer to him as I heard him sobbing. He was definitely crying.
" Hey, are you alright? " I carefully asked. What a stupid question, everyone knew he wasn't okay.
