Instant Connections
I watched as Crow hugged and comforted Sal.
One second Sal's listening to me answer her question, and the next, she's solidified to ice.
I didn't get it... What was going on?
"E 'tutta una bugia ... E 'tutta una menzogna," Crow murmured to Sal.
Instantly, my mind wrapped itself around those words. My past kicked into gear and I remembered Italian lessons from my family of so long ago.
It's all a lie..., I translated in my mind, It's all a lie.
But what was a lie?
I thought back to what I said earlier. Nothing I said made any possible connection.
All I said was that Newsagogo was a good friend of ours who got all the dirt and hush hush on BLI and that she was also Tommy's mother...
Her reaction wasn't making any sense at all.
I looked up into my brother's eyes, but he just stared back just as blank and confused as me. I looked at the others, and they were the same.
"I... I think I..." Sal began to stutter.
She motioned for the milkshake and I quickly handed it to her. She took it and began drinking it; though, she didn't have any of the previous joy from earlier.
I opened my mouth to ask her a question, but closed it when I realized that I didn't even know what to ask.
She looked up and saw the concern on my face.
"Are you sure?" she asked in a soft voice.
I looked at her even more confused.
"That - That Newsagogo... That she's Tommy's mother?" Sal asked again.
My eyes went wide at the question.
"Of course... She's been taking care of her long before we found them," I answered - still in shock from such a question.
"But..." Sal's voice weakened and trailed off.
"But are you sure?" Crow asked for her instead.
I searched Crow's face for any indication for what was going on behind her hazel eyes, but gave up when I couldn't find anything.
"Yeah... I mean, they have the same eyes... The same lame jokes..." Fun Ghoul answered.
Out of the corner of my eye, I saw my brother punch him playfully in the arm.
"Ow!" Fun Ghoul mouthed.
A small grin made its way to my face. It only lasted a few seconds, for then I looked at Sal and Crow who still wore the same serious expressions from before.
Sal took a deep breath. A deep breath of sadness and lost hope.
Without thinking, I turned to my left and walked around the bar till I was standing next to Sal on her other side.
She looked up at me - a bit surprised.
I sighed, and, in the next second, she jumped up from her spot under Crow's care and hugged me. I instantly became paralyzed in shock. After a few moments, I softened up and hugged her back. But it wasn't a weird hug - even though it was... Instead of just simply holding her, I wrapped my arms around her protectively. It felt like I had no intention of letting her go.
Suddenly, she began to tremble against me.
"Shh..." I murmured into her right ear, "It's okay. It's all okay."
It was then the sobbing began.
"Shh..." I repeated, "It's alright. I got you..."
"I got you."
