Chapter 4 Strange Power

• CHAPTER 4
• strange power
• Cinthya told Frank everything she had seen, the exact place where they were, what she saw them do, she didn't see anymore because she left.
• Frank was on the verge of blowing smoke out of his ears, he was so pissed off.
• Frank - But what were you doing there?
• Frank asked suddenly, getting curious.
• Cinthya looked at him in surprise at the question.
• Cinthya - But I'm talking about your sister, and you're worried about what I was doing there? - She says trying to change the focus of the conversation.
• Frank looked deeply at her.
• Frank - Is it a secret what you were doing? Because the place you talk about is very hidden - he opens his eyes a lot, wrinkling his nose - Were you there with someone Cinthya?
• She looks at him too much in awe, with that crazy talk of his.
• Cinthya - But are you crazy? No, I wasn't with anyone, but even if I was, what did you have to do with it? We are nothing to each other.
• She says all offended.
• Frank - Are we nothing? - he asks.
• Cinthya - We are friends, that's all. But that doesn't matter at all now - he makes a gesture with his hand as if to push the matter away - I don't want my name involved in your sister's business, do you hear? - she warns him.
• Frank - All right, rest assured. Your name won't even be mentioned - he says reassured.
• Cinthya - I think it's ok, I don't want my name around for nothing.
• He rolls his eyes.
• Cinthya - And another thing, I was there because I was suspicious of Leo's rush, always in a hurry to leave, I was surprised, I went after him and that's how I found out - she says carefree.
• Frank - Are you interested in that bastard? - he asks angrily.
• She looks at him confused by the question, but soon composes herself.
• Cinthya - Look here Frank, you have nothing to do with who I'm interested in or not, are you my boyfriend by any chance? My husband? You're not, you've already made it very clear that you don't want anything serious with anyone, so please do and don't bore me.
• She gets up and walks away without even looking back.
• Frank sits there watching her go, he liked her, more than he should, but he couldn't show any of that, nor should he like her, because she has a strange power over him, and he doesn't like that feeling.
• your girl
• Frank came into the house looking like a hurricane.
• Frank - Where is my father?
• he asked one of the maids who was passing by.
• Maid - Your father is in the office.
• Frank without another word went straight to the office.
• He entered without knocking and then slammed the door behind him.
• The father only looked up at him, visibly irritated by his son's outburst.
• Nicholas - Where is the Frank fire? Are there ways to get into my office? - He asks leaning back in his chair.
• Frank sits opposite his father on the other side of the desk.
• Frank - Dad, it's not a fire but it's urgent, by the way, not urgent, very urgent.
• The father looks at him suspiciously.
• Nicholas - What the fuck did you do! - question.
• Frank - Me? No dad, I didn't do anything, what an idea. It's a sensitive subject, it's about Evy.
• The father narrows his gaze.
• Nicholas - What's wrong with your sister? - question suspiciously.
• Frank tells everything Cinthya told him, but never mentioning who told him, her father was her father's friend, he wouldn't get into trouble for her side. The father wanted to know who had told him that, but he didn't say.
• Nicholas - And why am I going to believe in such defamation, if I don't even know who told you?
• Frank - Because I believe in the person who told me father and that has to be enough for you. - he speaks straight.
• The father was silent for a few minutes, trying to absorb that delicate subject. He didn't want to believe that his little girl was rubbing around with anyone, let alone a caretaker? But has she lost track?
• She was the girl to hang out with anyone!
• Nicholas - Who told you, said that this little crook leaves school every day in a hurry, right? - He asks to try to understand.
• Frank - Yes dad, every afternoon.
• Nicholas - Very well, this conversation is not going to get out of here Frank, it will be alone and just between the two of us, do you understand?
• Frank - Yes father, but what are we going to do?
• Nicholas - I'll tell you what we're going to do.
• Caught
• Narrated by Evy
• I leave English class late, but what the fuck, Leo must already be there waiting for me at the lake, and I'm late.
• I go as fast as I can, the later I arrive, the less time I have with him.
• This year of dating has been wonderful.
• I know the girls keep hitting on him since we've been secretly dating, so they think it's weird not seeing him with anyone for so long. A few days ago there was a cheeky girl, saying he was handsome, a bun that she didn't mind eating, I wanted to rip that tongue out of her, what a hate.
• But I held back, I had to hold back, what can I do, until the age of 18 there's nothing we can do, we have to keep dating in secret.
• I arrive there and he comes to me, and gives me a nice kiss right away, oh my god, I'm so addicted to that wonderful mouth of his.
• But when I was in what seemed to me like paradise, I quickly descended to hell in seconds, when I hear my father's voice screaming for me.
• I froze and froze and I was stiff as a dick.
• Leo opened his eyes so much in amazement, it looked like they were going to jump out of his face.
• I couldn't believe it.
• I look at my father, and next to him is my brother Frank, looking unfriendly, staring at Leo angrily.
• He goes for Leo, but my father catches him in time.
• My dad's eyes dart between me and Leo, clearly filled with anger and disillusionment.
• Nicholas - But what little shame is this Evelyn? Is this what your mother and I taught you? Are you walking around enjoying yourself with someone? - he asks angrily.
• My dad only calls me Evelyn when things are really fucked up.
• Evy - Dad - I say fearfully - Leo is not just anyone, we are lovers, it's different, right?
• Oh how much silly innocence I have, of course for my father it's all the same shit.
• Nicholas - YOU DARE TO CHALLENGE ME GIRL - he yells and I cringe.
• Leo takes my hand, but Frank pulls me by the other arm abruptly, Leo takes a step towards us and Frank gives him a chest.
• Frank - Will you face a kid? - he challenges you.
• I motion with my head for Leo to be quiet, there's no point in getting into more trouble than they already are.
• Leo then takes a step back.
• Frank - I think he's quite a brat - he says full of himself.
• I just wanted to slap him. Pfff what a hate.
• My dad motions to my brother and he starts pulling me, leaving my dad there alone with Leo.
• Evy - DAD PLEASE DON'T HURT HIM DADIIIIII - I was already far away with Frank practically dragging me through the trees. I tried to break free, but the more I did, the more Frank pulled me and squeezed my arm.
• I screamed, I messed up, I just cried.
• Already near the road he stopped me abruptly.
• Frank - Look here you crazy, are you going to stop with this hysterism, do you want to be talked about even more? - he asks angrily.
• I was exhausted.
• Evy - Dad won't hurt you, will he? - I asked quietly, I didn't even have a voice anymore.
• Frank looked at me with disdain.
• Frank - The one who should have stayed there was me with that bastard, who he was going to see, with whom he'd messed up.
• Having said that, he grabbed my arm again, and took me home.
