Sweetest sin
CH2 - Time to let go
It was now 5:50 p.m. and Carmen was ready for her trip to the islands. She was in her father's office. Before it at home she said goodbye to her mother and Juni.
"Well, Carmen, I hope you gonner have a great time. Still don't forget about the mission" said Gregorio.
"Sure, Dad. That's why I'm going in the first please" she shrugged shoulders.
"Ok, honey, your partner is waiting for you near the car"
"What did you say?" Carmen was a bit startled.
"What do you mean? Gary's already waiting for you" Carmen's eyes widened.
"Gary?!" at the moment she realized that she didn't want her dad to punish Gerti for what she did and tried to act normal. "Right! I just thought he's not here yet"
"Oh, hurry up then" he told his daughter and went back to the work.
"See you, Dad"
"See you, dear"
Carmen went out of the room and headed to the "car", actually it was and a car, and a ship, and many other things.
"Carmen?" she understood that he didn't know anything either.
"Hi. Felix! Hi, Gary" then she took him a bit down and whispered in his ear "if you don't want your sister to get in trouble act like it's ok"
"There's your transport, guys" said Felix.
"Thanks" mattered Gary and turned to Carmen "After you"
She went in, then he did the same and after they took their sits Carmen and Gary started their way. Gary turned the Autopilot on.
" So" he almost whispered when their boat got under the water "got any idea how's that happened?"
"Yeah, your sister" answered Carmen.
"Hay! I'm just trying to act nice!" something exploded inside the young guy.
"Well don't! You can't fix anything anyway!" she shouted back.
"That was two years ago, Carmen! It's time to forget the past, you know, it's time to let go" at the last word his voice became low.
"And if I can't, Gary. It was hurt. Nobody knew even you, but I did. It was too painful..." she whispered.
"I know. There was a mistake and I got everything wrong and then it happened, I'm sorry"
"You're not" she said firmly.
"I am. Listen, I thought you slept with Richerd and that's why I cheated on you. I wanted to hurt you then, Carmen. Me and Marisa was a mistake. I never felt a single thing to her I just wanted to get you back. To get you back for the thing you've...never done..." mumbled Gary.
"Why you didn't tell me that before?" she sat on one of the beds.
"You wouldn't listen" he sat next to her.
"I guess I wouldn't... How could you believe that I would ever do something like this?" she asked sadly.
"I was out of my mind when I heard it. I didn't think then. I wish I can turn everything..."
"But you can't" Carmen said softer but still sad.
"Four hours till the final destination" notified the computer.
They stayed in silence for the next 3 and a half hours.
