Life is such a strange thing. No one can manage understand it. Lucy is trying her best to do it. She is haunted by the voices in her head, which are telling her the truth, the problem is that she doesn't want to admit some facts. Broken hearts, so...
I turned to see Becca coming towards the table. She sat beside me and poured some coffee in her cup.
-It's not like I hate them, but they are super annoying and I want to get the he'll out of there.
-Lucy, where do you want to study?
-I don't know Steven.
-Avoid the prices. Tell me what is the dream place you want to study.
-American Academy of Dramatic Arts-West.
-I got you.
-Sweetheart, in your wardrobe are some Abayas. Go and put some over your clothes.
-Why?
-Can't tell, it's a surprise., Leo told me.
I smiled and pecked his lips. I went to put all of the plates in the sink.
-Let me wash them.
I turned around to find granny.
-Thanks granny.
She gave me a smile and started washing the dishes. I ran upstairs to my room. I opened the wardrobe and looked for an abaya.

When dressed up, I went out of the house to find Oliver standing in front of a white car.

-When will you start telling me where are we going?
-I like seeing your face when we always arrive to the place of destination. You look so cute, surprised, happy.
I went ahead and sat in the car. After a few minutes, we got in a desert.

-Is this the surprise you were talking about?, he smiled.
I smiled back and got out of the car. I put my bare foot on the hot and soft sand. It wasn't too hot, so I could easily walk on it. It was as soft as the skin of a baby. I have always loved the desert. One sits on a desert sand dune, sees nothing, hears nothing. Yet through the silence something throbs, and gleams. I walked towards a dune, and sat down. I turned my face to the view, and my back was facing the car. Oliver looked at me through the window. There was a small sand storm, but I didn't care. The beautiful yellow, pink and orange colors were dancing in the sky. I love sunsets. They make me feel the love and warmth. I was standing there and watched the end of the day. The sunset was at 8 p.m., since it was almost summer. I fell a pair of hands wrapping around my waist and back-hugging me.
-Why always when we go somewhere where is a beautiful view, you forget about everything?
-I don't know. I always feel bewitched by nature. It makes me feel like I'm at home, even though I never had a definition of home.
He put his head on my right shoulder. We were laying like that for one hour, until the dark completely surrounded the sky. When I wanted to tell Oliver that we should leave already, he got a text. He searched for his phone in his back pocket.
-We should get going.
-I was about to tell you that.
We got up and headed to the car. After some time we were at an private plane land.

-Why are we here?
-I said we should get going.
-You didn't tell we should get going out of the country.
-Well, now I do. Lucy... WE SHOULD GET THE HELL OUT OF THIS GODDAMN COUNTRY!
-Why? Can you tell me why?
-Later, now, the most important is our safety.
He didn't let me say a word. He roughly brought my wrist and we walked to the plane. He pushed me inside and I took a sit. He was nervously walking to the pilot and back. I felt the plane moving really fast. In an eye blink, we were in the air. He finally took a sit and took a glass of whiskey. I looked outside the window to see us high in the sky. Suddenly, our plane was shaking as hell. I put my hand on the arm of my chair and held it really hardly.
-WHAT ON THE EARTH IS HAPPENING???
He didn't answer, instead he stood up and went to the pilot. In a few moments the plane calmed down. I saw Oliver coming back.
-Can you tell me what the hell is going on.
-I can't. Believe me, it's for your safety.
-Oliver, I fucking told you the thing that no one knew instead of me and Lettie. I told you the pain that I had in my soul. I cried my heart out. Now please, be a good boy and tell me the truth.
