Five days before the trial.   LAILAH I hear Azael knocking on the door again but I don't even bother getting out of bed. I've been locked up in one of the upstairs rooms for a day, and call me bro, but I'm beyond mad at Azael for not telling me why the fuck I can't get out of this house. Weren't there supposed to be secrets between us anymore? Aren't we supposed, to be honest with each other? Well, it gives me the feeling that every time we move forward in whatever we have between the two of us, we have to go back two steps, and we always return to the same point. I also know that he is hiding something important from me, and that worries me. -Okay, okay, don't go out. We'll see what you do when you're starving- I hear Azael say on the other side of the door after getting tired of calling me so much. I roll my eyes. Damn stupid. I hear his footsteps moving awa

Four days before the trial.  AZAEL Delicately, I rub the cotton over the wound to disinfect it and I do it with great care, so as not to wake it up. I don't know what the hell they did it with, but he's been lucky it doesn't rub against the main vein in his arm, because it could have bled. On top of that, she has some bruises all over her body that make her wish she could have them and not her. I spend several minutes watching his face rest calmly, while he breathes out and breathes in so inconspicuously that it seems that he is not even breathing. How can she be so gorgeous and fucking headstrong? I don't even want to imagine what could have happened if I had arrived just ten minutes later. Just remembering her crying and the way she hugged herself on the duvet on the bed, trying to hide her head on her knees so as not to see anything ... just to avoid me. How the chills ran t

Three days before the trial.    LAILAH When you want to be a good person, you have to know how to forgive. And it is that from forgiveness to love there is only one step. And from love to hate too, so you have to know very well which option to choose. Because there is already too much evil in the world to go around spouting more shit, so when you feel that you are going to explode, that you can't take it anymore and you feel that you are doing it wrong, stop and forgive. It doesn't matter if it's yourself or others, but I can confirm that you will feel better. Yes, I know that I behaved stupidly for a silly thing and that my reaction to the facts was not the most prudent. I just tried to shake the guilt off myself and made the only one who had been there for me feel bad. But I have already forgiven myself, and also him, so for me, he is already forgotten. Sitt

Two days before the trial.     LAILAH -Yes mom, it's still broken- I answer, rolling my eyes. Azael laughs at my reaction, which makes me smile.-And why didn't you take it from me? Aunt Gina was worried… - she scolds me across the line.-Well, because it's not my cell phone! It's a friend's cell phone, and I can't be glued to it all day in case someone happens to call me.-Anyway, make sure they fix it soon, I don't like not being able to call you every day- She puts on the voice of a victim and I can already imagine her making that face she makes to cause pain. -I know that if it were for you, you would have me watched twenty-four hours a day, but it's not in my hands.-Good darling, -pronunciation to change the subject- see you in three days. Almost there- she says, putting hope in her voice. I swallow hard.-If it already

One day before the trial.  LAILAH Needed a rest. I am so emotionally tired that I think I should let go of the stress of knowing that there is only one day left to carry out the most difficult decision of my entire life a little away from me. Because let me say, I'm so nervous that I can't even think of anything else. To a certain level I am surprised when I hear the following words come out of Scott's mouth:-Happy end of the year.It's already the end of the year. It is the last day of the year. The one in which you are supposed to go out to party with your friends to celebrate a new year full of surprises and new experiences. The one where you are supposed to be happy. And yet here we are, all eating quietly and uncomfortably. And it is that the situation gives a lot of itself. I annoy Azael for hiding Kya from me; Azael annoyed at Scott for being Scott; Scott

AZAEL I just passed the location to Kya and put the phone on the bed. Then I look in the mirror.I wear a suit of those that boys wear at weddings, black, with a white shirt underneath that lets the ink from my tattoos show through and the sleeves slightly rolled up, revealing the ones I wear on my forearms. Lailah will love it. I'm about to go downstairs when a call comes in on my cell phone.I frown, it's Peter.-What do you want?- I ask reluctantly.- Azael, I'm so sorry, I don't know ...- He clears his throat- I don't know what happened. -He seems very concerned.- You better come see this.-Now I can't, I have more important things to do. -I am not wasting the time I have with my girl going to do business with my father. If he's gotten into trouble, let him get out on his own. -No, I think that right now there is nothing more important than this. I mean it, come on. -I had never he

Day of the trial.LAILAHMy mother's heels click on the wooden kitchen floor. Meanwhile, Jim drinks his coffee without saying a word.Nobody says anything, since it is not necessary to do so. The scene they met last night when they got home was enough. After taking a hot shower, my mother insisted on knowing what was wrong with me, but I was unable to get a single word out. And it is that I am ashamed to assume how low I have fallen. How am I going to explain that I have fallen in love with the murderer of my best friend? After all the things we had to go through to get a trial ... After all the gimmicky evidence ... After fighting day and night to get justice ... I have no right to tell you that. I don't want to fail him. I look at the plate of intact toast in front of me, but I haven't even touched it. They remind me of him. He hasn't bothered to call me. Not a damn text message. Not an explanation ..

The judge's two hammer blows indicating that the trial is over echo in my ears like the thud of yang echoing through a Chinese ivory palace.-No. I'm not sure it was him.Those have been my words. I can't believe I said that. I can't believe I listened to my heart. I'm stupid. I am a disappointment.  I know that deep down inside me, I knew that Azael didn't deserve to go to jail, since he didn't want Alison to die. But if there is something that I also know, it is that she died because of him, and I had to do justice. Both her and all her other victims.  And I have not. I am a disappointment to everyone. Even for myself. I freeze. My sight is lost between the four walls of the courthouse and my lips are parted, breathing raggedly. My hands tremble. All of me tremble. Hands touch my arms, pushing me t

-Lailah wake up. Hands shake me and I feel a killer instinct growing inside me. -I'll kick your ass if you don't get out of bed, and you know I can do it. Oh God, it's Kya again.  I don't know where I get the willpower to do it, but miraculously I manage to sit up. And then I expensively open my eyes, seeing her in her training clothes and her arms folded. -Girl, you look like a homeless person. - she incriminates me.I can already imagine it. My tangled hair, puffy eyes, drool sticking to the side of my lips, and double chin. I smirk.-Hello. -Hello? What hello?- she yells at me- Don't you know what time it is?I cover my head with the pillow.- No ...- I reply lazily.The pillow he was holding goes flying through the air. Then comes the savannah, and then me.-What are you doing?- I yell at Kya angrily f

I go through the halls like a zombie when Jason stands in the way, taking me by surprise. -Hey Lailah. -He greets me.- Shall we meet today after class?-I don't know Jay- I murmur somewhat confused- I have to study for the recovery of the economy.-Well ... we can meet to study ... -answers somewhat embarrassed.-Have you suspended the economy?- I ask surprised- If you were very good at it!-Yes, but lately I've been a bit distracted ... -he scratches the back of his neck and I feel like there's something he doesn't want to tell me.- Besides, you would have known that if you had been more aware of me. -He says with some rancor.-I'm sorry, you're right. It's that I've been through bad times and ...- I know, you don't have to explain anything to me- He interrupts me to reassure me- But everything is fine between us, right?-Of course yes- I smile at him- You could accompany me to my house and we study there.Jason
