Chapter 39

•Vienna's P.O.V•

"You knew and you didn't tell me?!"I said as I grabbed the plate and looked at him with so much anger boiling inside me.

He took a step back and held up his hands in front of him. "Calm down, tranquila, calmare."

"Saying it three tres tre different fucking languages doesn't stop me from throwing this plate in your fucking face!"I yelled as I threw the plate into the floor for it to be smashed into a million pieces just like my heart was. "Fuck you!"

"Look, vi I know how you feel."Riki said as he let out a sigh. "We need to talk, civilly."

I grabbed another plate and threw it a him only for him to duck. "Stop fucking ducking it! I want it to hit you!"

"Well I don't want it to hit me!"Riki said in a frustrated fine. "Let's talk please."

I rolled my eyes and grabbed the other plate in my hand, I looked at him. "I don't want to speak to you, I don't want to know you."

"C'mon vi..."

"Don't you dare come on vi me, you aren't supposed to be keeping secrets from me but shame when I do it, it's all hell loose."I snapped as I looked at him, throwing my arms in the air holding the plate tightly in my hand. "You kept something so big from me, I don't even have much time with him!"

"Do you think I wanted to keep this from you eh?"Riki said as the vein popped out of his forehead, becoming more angry. "Do you think I wanted to? Because I know how it feels like, I begged the both of them not to but they didn't listen to me. So blame it on me but it isn't my fault."

I turned around to the sink, I smashed the plate against the surface leading to a massive sound to be made.

I felt blood dripping down, I looked at my hand to see a massive cut on my hand as my eyes brimmed with tears blurring out my vision.

Riki walked over to me, he placed his hand on my shoulder and let out another sigh. "Vienna, you've hurt yourself."

But this hurts even more, my parents keeping such a big thing from me with a ticking clock behind it.

Dad walked in, seeing all the plates smashed against the floor and he looked up at me and Riki. "What's happened?"

I turned and looked at him, Riki moved his hand away and let out a sigh not knowing what to say.

"What happened here?"Dad repeated his question as the silence sat between us all.

Then he looked at my hand to see the blood still dripping. "Vi? What have you done?"

Riki grabbed the tea towel and wrapped it around my hand before I could stop him.

"Leave me alone."I said as I yanked my hand away from him making the pain more worse but not caring.

"Vi, what's happened?"Dad repeated himself again but in a concerned tone with a worried expression on his face.

I looked at him with a cold glare. "Why do you care what I do?"

"What did you just say to me?"Dad said with a raise of his eyebrow.

"Why do you care? You are hardly ever there and if you are, you are always arguing with Andres or working from home."I replied as I looked at him, my hand behind my back. "Even worse, you made me go to all these therapy session when we lost abuelo and Luc but you never learnt one thing from it."

"Vienna..."Riki whispered from behind me indicating for me to stop it right there.

Dad looked at me. "When are you going to realise that was for your benefit?"

I chose to ignore his question. "You kept a secret from me, I bet everyone knows but I don't know do I? Because sweet Vienna can't know just incase other relapse happens."

"Vienna, I don't know what's going on with you but go-"

I cut dad off and looked at him, tears trickled down my face. "If you cared about me so much, you would of knew that it's already happened and that doing that just makes things more worse."

"Vi, just stop it there."Riki said stood behind me. "You've hurt your hand really bad."

"No, no Riki."I said without even looking at him and kept my gaze onto dad. "You didn't tell me that Papi is dying."

"Where are you getting this from vi?"Dad said acting shocked and dumb. "What's wrong?"

I pulled out the letter out of my pocket which I folded early on and threw it at dad. "Next time, hid it a little better."

I pushed past him, with Riki yelling my name then I went out of the door.

-

I looked at the starts, my hand began to throb like a heartbeat was there. I whinced in pain.

"Vi? Are you up there?"Chris's voice came to my ears.

Choking on my own tears, I couldn't bring myself to say anything to him or do anything.

My mind wrapped around the thoughts of not having Papi around anymore, that I'm losing him too.

A few minutes later, Chris appeared in front of me and he let out a sigh, seeing my bloody hand. "Vi?"

He sat in front of me, his index finger lifted up my chin and he looked at me. "Vi?"

I blinked and looked at him as he placed my hurt hand on his lap. "D-Don't worry I didn't hurt m-myself."

Chris brought up his free hand and wiped my tears away. "I know you wouldn't do that anymore."

"How did you know I was here?"

"Riki called, said you had a massive rows and plates were involved too."Chris replied with a soft chuckle. "And said you were missing, not picking up your phone or answering texts. Then I thought you like it here and it's quiet so you can think."

I looked at him. "Thanks."

"For what?"

"For giving me this place."

"Anytime." He said then he got up and walked over to this thing then came back and sat in front of me again, holding my wrist.

He opened the box with his other hand and pulled out antiseptic wipes, he looked at me. "I'm gunna clean it."

I nodded. "It's gunna sting a little."He told me and I nodded along.

He began to wipe it, me whining each time he did then tears trickled down my face as he did it.

I looked at him. "You aren't going to leave me are you?"

"No I'm never going."

"Promise?"

"Promise."
