Olivia's body froze. She couldn't move, she couldn't breath. Then, the air wouldn't come to her lungs, her heart raced, her mouth dried, she felt like her head was spinning. She asked herself a lot of questions, but with all she was feeling, she couldn't even catch her breath to think.Her legs started to give in, and she began to feel weak, like she was going to faint. "Oh My God!!! She's hyperventilating!" Someone screamed, Olivia didn't recognize who did it though, her consciousness was long gone. --- Olivia woke up to a concerned Trinity. The only thing she noticed at first was that she was back to her room with Trinity by her side, her eyes never leaving Olivia's. Olivia felt a little confusion, but it didn't last long, she realised what had happened and why she was laying on her bed. "Are you feeling well?" Trinity asked, breaking the silence. "Y-yeah..." But it was a complete and uter lie. Olivia wasn't fine, she just discovered that her father had connections with criminals. And the worst of all? She was being a pretty hypocrite person just thinking about how it was so dangerous and low of her father. But still...she couldn't believe. A part of her couldn't believe what she heard. A part of her didn't want her father to associate with that kind of people. But again, she was being a hypocrite!! SHE was involved with that kind of people. Olivia herself decided to join them. Her father's sins couldn't even compare to hers. He just was an associated, she was a member. "Do you want to talk about it?" Trinity asked, refering to what they discovered. Olivia was about to shake her head, but her mouth worked faster. "I can't belive it" She whispered. "I can't believe it!.", this time her voice was louder. "I can't believe it!!" Olivia was almost screaming. "Calm down, calm down!" Trinity holding Olivia arms and joining her on bed. Olivia realised how crazy she looked and stopped and looked down. Then, she looked up again, this time facing Trinity. "My...my...f-father" Olivia tried to talk but the sobs were coming at her throat. She hugged Trinity, and for the first time in weeks, she cried as hard as the first time she arrived at the house. "It'll be okay. Don't cry please." Trinity reassured Olivia, making "sh" noises with her mouth. Minutes later, Olivia decided to stop her cries and talk with her friend. Crying wouldn't take her nowhere. "I-Is m-my fa-father ok?" Olivia asked, but she knew Trinity couldn't answer that. "I...I don't know." Trinity said. "But he might be ok Liv. Look, I don't know how he's feeling right now or how he is doing. Aside from, maybe, feeling worry for you but..." She tried to comfort Olivia, it just reminded the latter what she had done and how she never contacted him again. "I know that he's worried about me!!" Olivia said with an annoyed voice. "I...I just...wanted to know why he was partners with someone like that Vasquez guy." "I'm sorry, I'm not the right person to comfort another." Trinity didn't know what to say. "Sorry for snapping. I'm just...so confused!!" Olivia said, trowing herself at the pillow. "I know I sound like a complete hypocrite but why is my father partners with criminals?? It's dangerous!! I'm afraid for his life. If he doesn't take care, he'll end like..." "Nikki's father?" Trinity said before Olivia could finish. "Olivia, your father is a smart man, if he wasn't, he wouldn't be at the top right now. He might know what he got into. Besides, aren't you involved with that kind of people too?" Trinity raised a eyebrow "I know! That's why I'm being a hypocrite!!" Olivia huffed. The tears that filled her face before, dried and went away. The only thing left on Olivia's mind was doubts and questions. Then, she began to wonder and remember. And finally, she realised something. Wait a minute... My father has connections with Vasquez's gang, therefore Vasquez's partners might know about him. And that night...that night the handsome guy told that he was looking for me... Does it have some kind of relation?? Her thoughts were interrupted by a door opening and showing Ace and Nikki about to enter. Olivia turned to look at them and so did Trinity. Nikki almost ran to Olivia, hugging her. "Oh My Gosh!! I was so worried about you! Are you okay? Are you hurt?" She bombarded Olivia with questions. "I was here before you woke up but Ace said that you needed some space, she just let Trinity stay." "I'm fine right now. I guess it was just a overreaction." Olivia said, trying to calm Nikki's worries. "Maybe it wasn't just that. You were exhausted from the training session, and receiving such news, it destroys anyone." Ace said, maybe trying to comfort Olivia, but her expression was as hard as a rock. Olivia just nodded, understanding Ace's efforts. Like Trinity, she wasn't a person to seek comfort with. Then, Olivia remembered what she was thinking about before Ace and Nikki arrive. And before she could realise, her expression showed a little shock. Ace, Nikki and Trinity noticed that and frowned. "Are you sure you are okay?" Ace asked, one brow raised. "I-I'm. But I want to talk with you Ace." Olivia said, then looked at Trinity and Nikki. "Alone" The pair frowned again, but didn't object. After they were already out, Ace seated on Olivia's bed. "What's bothering you? I can tell that you are hiding something." Ace asked. Olivia just stared at her for a moment, Ace sure knew how to read someone's mind. "You know that night when the gang was attacked?" Olivia asked and Ace nodded. "So... " Olivia was trying to find words, she was afraid that if Ace discovered, she would be furious. "When Trinity and I were running away, a boy approached us and said that he was looking for me." Olivia said quickly. Ace's face didn't change. She wasn't giving any sign of anger, or sadness, or surprise, or any other emotion. Suddenly, a huge silence filled the room. Olivia hated when it happened, she never knew what Ace could say or do. "Look, I'm sorry for don't telling your earlier but..." Olivia began to speak but Ace cut her off by saying what made Olivia's eyes wilden. "I already knew" Ace said emontionlessly. Olivia's mouth fell. "H-how did you know??" Olivia was perplexed. Ace laughed a little "You weren't the only one at the scene you know? Trinity told me." Ace said, stating the obvious. Olivia faceplamed, she couldn't believe she was that stupid to think that Trinity didn't told anyone about that man. "She told me who he was too." Ace said, chuckling a little, amuse with Olivia's naive thoughts. Olivia frowned, she didn't know who he was, Trinity didn't told her. But again, she was the stupid one for never asking. "And who is he?" Olivia asked. "Tristan Vasquez." Ace answered and it surprised Olivia. "He is the son of Ricardo Vasquez. The man I killed."
