External POV:

It was already December, almost a month since Alex almost kissed the woman who has lastly been all over her mind, even her sister had noticed a change in her behavior. She was much more thoughtful and paid much less attention to those around her.

"Alex ?" Asha shouted for the third time.
.
"Hmm?"

"What's wrong with you lately, please talk to me ?"

"Nothing Asha. I'm fine, it's just that I'm a little busier with the exams that start next week"

"No that's it all" Asha shakes her head not at all convinced. "I know there is something else. You look ... sad, much sadder. Is it because I'm not going to be there for Christmas?" Ask her sister knowing that if there is a thing Alex hates more than Christmas it is to spend it without her.

"Yes and there is other matter" she sighs ready to confess everything to her sister realizing that she needs to tell someone about it. "It's .. there's this girl I really really like" she confessed out loud for the first time, lowering her head.

"Oh. So ?" Asha asks knowing there's more.

"And I don't know if liking someone like her is stupid. No, I know it's stupid. But still I do like ans I don't know what to do, I will give evrything so that these feelings disappear like they never existed. But no matter how many times I tell myself it's just a little crush and they'll go away as fast as a came. I feel it in my heart every time She smiles at me. But I can't like her and it's scaring me Asha. I'm terrified" Her voice cracked at the end of her sentence.

"Why can't you like her?"

"I just can't" Alex raises her exasperated voice.

"Why ?"

"Because she already have someone she love" she shouted drawing the attention of the guards. "Because she likes someone else" She ends up in a whisper. Ashaa sighed and closed her eyes for a few seconds.

"Okay, maybe she likes someone else so what?" Alex looked at her confused. "You have feelings for her sis, that's a fact and you can't fight them, you know it's lost in advance, our feelings always win in the end. I will do everything so that you can be happy in life but I can't protect you from love, it's a fight you will have to fight on your own and I hope you will fight for the one you love even if you don't win you will at least lie down at night knowing you have tried. I don't know who you're talking about or why you like them but I know you enough to know when something you really important to you" They heard the bell ring to remind them of the end of the visit.

"You don't understand at all" They get up and hug.

"Try to get close to her and show her everything you could offer"

"Exactly I can only offer her back unhappiness and shame. She already has everything a woman her age dreams of having Asha"

"Your presence and your love is much more than all the gold in the world because you are an incredible girl" They separate and the big sister is accompanied by a guard while Alex gets out of prison, her gym bag in hand and head for her soccer training at the school, one of those moments when she doesn't think about blonde woman.

**************

Elianna sits in the stands while waiting for Alex to finish her training, it was almost 5pm.

"Pass the ball" Shouted a boy in the middle of the field.

"Elianna!" The blonde turned and saw Ryan's grandfather approaching. "Albert? W-what are you doing here"

"I wanted to pick Alex up"

"Why, is evrything ok ?"

"Yeah, just wanted to pend some time with her" Elianna frowns even more confused. Asking her grandson to host Alex in because her sister has been imprisoned and she has nowhere else to go is one thing but spending time with her is something else. The man was really very busy, busier than she or Ryan, Almost always out the country. To say that it's surprising that he takes a few hours of his day just to chat and hang out with someone is an understatement.
