What We Do For Love

f i v e

The next day Michael, having been deceived by Kiara's attitude from the las night, organized a meeting with more or less the ones he thought, were feeling the least uncomfortable with Kiara and Monicas' presence in the gang, and some other important members, including Julia. Somehow he got the girls, to get more acceptance in the gang he made a kind of deal where, he offered the others to receive some more remunerations for their works, so when the meeting finished, hoping everything would start getting better, went to Kiara's room when she hadn't gone out yet.

Michael: Kiara! I think I got it!

-*Comes into the room without knocking the door or anything, and stupidly she had left it unlocked *-

-She was naked about to get int the bathroom and take a shower, still getting a towel-

Kiara: Wait! Don't! Don't come in! Shit!

Michael: Damn sorry!

-*she out on the towel, and asking from inside to the other side of the door*-

Kiara: What do you want?

Michael: I can come back later if you want

Kiara:Shit!now just tell me.

Michael: You'll be fine.

Kiara: What do you mean?

Michael: You'll be fine, I already fixed everything.

Kiara: How?

Michael: People hears me.

-She kept thinking-

In Kiara's mind: How he can pretend to be nice with us now? After all he did, after all we have suffered because of him, after leaving us with no other option than being here, I would have had imagined I would ever have to join a gang, and less to survive. How did my life change so much? It all was basically only because of him! He doesn't deserve to be still alive... I hate him, and I hate this. How did I get convinced of joining this shit? I would have preferred dying... I mean, I know he suffered... but this is to much! This level of inhumanity is too cruel. We have survived until now, but I can't imagine how many have died...

-*Way much later, at evening, Julia decided to knock at her door and visit her*-

Julia: Hey...

Kiara: Hi.

Julia: How are you doing?

Kiara: Great...

Julia: I'm sorry for what happened yesterday

Kiara: You didn't do anything.

Julia: Yeah, that's the problem, I should had defend you.

Kiara: No, why would you...?

Julia: I like you -(Not in a romantic way)- and because of Jason.

Kiara: Jason? What would he have to do with all this?

Julia: No, not in this, but between us...

Kiara: I don't get you.

Julia: What she did to you, he did to me as well, to my friends, to the people I love. I know I'm not a good person, and well I have my reasons of being here, but what he did is terrible, and now that I've gotten over it, now that I have gotten over his death, I think it's time for me to apologize with you... and to support and help you with anything you need.

Kiara: -*Being still a little confused*- Well, It's okay, thank you.

Julia: Hm... Okay, thanks?... I have to leave.
