"Kaelah, are you going to answer me?" He questioned to what I kept silent, but finally I answered.

"I've gone to the Fortress of Solitude with Kal-el, you can call him if you want to confirm it," I answered his question, turning to look at him, watching as he approached me in confusion.

"Why didn't you tell me?" He asked worriedly.

"Because I wanted to do it on my own, without you and without my sister," I explained, causing him to frown. "It's not that I don't trust you, but I think you worry too much and you make me nervous." He sat on the edge of the bed. "I needed to do it, I feel better after I did," I explained, watching him as he smiled slightly as he stretched his arms out to hug me, so I sat up, burying my face on his neck. "Is it true that you saw me when I was little?" I asked in a whisper.

"Yes, you were so little," he smiled. "I saw you twice more, but you weren't supposed to see me." He stroked my face.

I smiled back, knowing that what he was telling me was true, which in a way I was curious about it, because it made me wonder how they had managed to keep me from hearing those visits.

Kara did not respond, Alex did not either, which made me almost unable to avoid it, since I did not understand that they could be doing so that I could not respond.

I was aware that both were supposed to be together to celebrate my sister's thirteenth Earth birthday, but I was worried that neither would answer the phone, since normally if one of the two did not pick it up, it was the other, so I was disturbed by the fact that I did not do it.

I called everyone who might have seen them or even been with them, and have known where they were going.

"Mon-el," I sighed, relaxed as he picked it up. "Have you seen my sister?" I asked him directly.

"Yes, she's been here, what's wrong?" He asked worriedly.

"She doesn't pick up the phone and Alex, either, they're supposed to celebrate my sister's birthday," I explained, feeling a lump in my throat, threatening more and more to start crying.

"I'm going to the apartment, okay?" He said, nodding as if he could see me, not being able to answer loudly, because he was fully aware that I wasn't going to "I love you," he said good-bye, but again, I could not speak.

I let myself fall on the couch, unable to contain my tears any longer, burying my face in my hands, unable to stop thinking that something had happened. I did not understand what had happened so that they were not together, what had made them end up separate tonight, much more when my sister had too many illusions about celebrating her birthday.

I should have gone with them, I should have, but I was not in the mood, so I'd turned down the invitation every time she'd proposed it, but if I had, I might have avoided it.

When they knocked on the door I did not want to get up, but I had to, hugging him in tears, wanting to understand what was happening.

"I called Kara, Alex, Winn, J'onn ..., no answer," I explained as I sat down again in the counch, remembering who could have information. "Maggie!, I have to call her," I said taking my cell phone, but he took it from my hands.

" Stop calling people, you have to wait a little to see if she appears, "he said dryly my tears." Maybe she is on a DEO mission, "he said so that I could stay calm.

I nodded slightly, hugging him back, trying to relax as I listened to his heartbeat, catching my breathing guided by his own, closing my eyes for a couple of seconds.

"What do you think if we see a movie?" He asked, separating me a little from him and making me nod. "Well, what do you want to see?" He asked, brushing my hair away from my face.

I shrugged without a clear answer, so after arguing about which movie to watch, I curled up on the couch, placing my head on his legs, watching as he smiled slightly as he stroked my hair. I tried to pay attention to the movie, but soon I felt my eyes close, ending up completely asleep.

When she opened the door of the apartment, she did not expect that scene, for she had heard on so many occasions from her sister that she would never spend time alone with Mon-el, which surprised her, but at the moment she was quite clear, that was something that went beyond their friendship.

It was a pity she had to wake them up, so she wrapped her sister in a blanket and set to turn off the television, however, the moment she did, it was Mon-el's voice that startled her.

"Has something happened?" She asked after noticing the tears on her sister's cheeks.

"She was worried that you didn't respond to the calls," he explained, stroking Kaelah's hair. "I think she's called practically everyone," he said, helping her understand that that was the reason everyone had her calls.

"There was a white Martian in the DEO, I had to have answered her" she regretted, knowing hher sister, that she was going to be altered as a result of her disappearance. "She can not spend an hour without knowing where I am" she explained, closing her eyes.

"You disappeared for days and CADMUS entered her room, it was impossible not to relate it" he looked at her making her nod, because that was true. "I must go, if you want, I can lay her down on her bed," he pointed out replacing Kaelah to get out of the couch.

"No, it's not necessary," she denied. "Thank you for staying with her."

"It's nothing," he said before leaving.

At that moment she returned to the couch to watch her sister, crouching in front of her to stroke her cheek, brushing her hair away from her face.

She sighed, when would that fear take away from her sister? It was something she could not know for sure, but she was worried that her sister would not be able to distance herself from her without altering and having to know her location at all times. She decided to change before returning to the living room, adjusting herself to her sister's feet before distracting herself with the television, however, this only lasted a couple of minutes, since they knocked on the door and after identifying her older sister in the hallway she got up. She could not help smiling at the moment she saw the cupcake, listening to her sister's indication before blowing the candle and letting her pass into the apartment.

They had been talking for a while when she heard Kaelah's voice calling to her, which brought her up to her, watching her eyes widen, staring at her for a couple of seconds before flinging her arms around her.

"Where were you?" She asked.

"In the DEO, there was a white Martian," she replied, causing her to raise an eyebrow. "It's a long story," she smiled. "Is there anything you want to tell me, Kaelah?" She asked, watching her confusion.

"What?" Her sister narrowed her eyes.

"You should sleep, we'll talk tomorrow, okay?" She kissed her forehead.

"Okay," she whispered. "Good night," she said good-bye before running to her room.

When would her sister recognize her feelings for Mon-el? Or rather, when was she going to explain what was happening between them?

I looked at Mon-el, we had to, because my sister was beginning to suspect our relationship and, the truth is that hiding things had always brought me problems, so I had to explain what happened as much as I feared her reaction.

I think it was fair to say that we were both nervous about it, for Mon-el kept his head down, deep in thought, while I kept pacing the room, stopping at the moment I heard the doorbell rang, sighing before opening the door.

"Hey, what do you have to tell me?" She asked, noticing Mon-el's presence.

"We both have to say it," I pointed to him. "I don't like to hide things, nothing good comes out of that and that's why I think doing this is a way to make sure everything's going to work out, I guess." I started talking not knowing how to do it "We're dating," I pointed out before looking down, listening as my sister started to laugh.

"You seriously thought I didn't know?" She laughed, getting me to frown. "Watching you both act for the last few weeks has brought me everything I needed to know, for Rao, Kaelah, you couldn't bear to be with him and suddenly you don't anywhere without him" she smiled. "I'm glad you told me so I can openly threaten him," she said looking at Mon-el, who was surprised at the words of my sister. "I warn you, if you hurt her, you're going to see with me" she threatened him.

I laughed lightly as I watched his face as he nodded seriously at the threat, when I hugged him, feeling as he surrounded me with his arms.

"Don't take it too seriously," I looked at him, laughing.

"Yes, you have to, don't take away my authority," my sister complained. "And now, if you like, we can order some pizzas because I'm starving," she said, getting me to nod in agreement.

However, although everything seemed to be going well, the voice made the three of us alert, watching the person who just appeared in the room, whose words only managed to alarm me, who think he was to appear there and tell my sister that he loved her
