Don't tell her

Olivia is done with her classes for the day and walk out of the class with Emma feeling tired and hungry; they've had a long day and walk towards the library to grab some material for their assignment.

She hasn’t told Emma about what happened with Charles yet and keep it to herself, he calls her a few times but she ignore his calls and finally block him when he wouldn’t stop.

Olivia keep thinking that the girl she saw that night looks familiar but she can’t remember where she has seen her face and decide to also put that behind her.

The chance of her meeting both of them again is definitely zero since they are not people of her caliber.

She decide not to tell Emma about Charles cheating or their break up for a while, she will definitely make a fuss about things

"How about we get something to eat first before dealing with the assignment? Am famished” Olivia suggest to Emma who is busy on her phone

"We promised to eat with Romeo today remember?"

"Oh that's right” Olivia said, she let the issue with Charles get the best of her

"How can you forget the promise we made to him just this morning"

"Yeah but I don't get why he is so upset that we went to a party without informing him, he sounds like a baby asking for attention” Olivia replied and Emma hit her shoulders lightly

"What? It's true"

Lizzy shakes her head smiling because she knows Olivia doesn't mean any of the words she said.

If there is someone she loves more than herself then it's her brother

Because of his recent surgery, Romeo hasn't been able to return to school and he is also taking a short break from school and swimming.

He wanted to work part-time at the cafe but Olivia won't hear of it, she refuse to let him work when she is also doing the same thing and prefers he stays at home all day and rest properly.

Luckily, he can still continue swimming after his surgery

The both of them head home after buying some foodstuff and soon arrive, there are two rooms in the house which Emma and Olivia stays in one while they let Romeo use the other one despite his complains that Olivia should take his room so she can study properly and he will use the small living room

They prepared chorizo and eggs tortilla and served the food, Romeo walk out of his room hearing the delicious smell and sat down in the small living room to join them.

The three of them sat down and soon start eating quietly until Olivia breaks the silence

"You have an appointment with the doctor tomorrow?" She said and Romeo wonders if it's a question or she was informing him about it

"Why won't you answer?" She said glaring at him

"Yes and after that I will be free from your constant nags" he replied frowning his face at her

"So you are annoyed by your visits to the hospital, then you shouldn't have gotten into a fight” Olivia said pissed off as she remembers the reason why he had to undergo the surgery.

"Hey! You said you won't mention it again" Emma snapped

"Why won’t I mention it? I still can’t forget the money we had to use to pay for it" Olivia snapped back obviously upset about how her brother is keeping secrets from her

All she knows is that he was found lifeless by Emma who called the emergency line or the story wouldn’t have been different and also, he would not voice a word to her about what actually happened

"And I told you I would pay you back" Romeo also snapped at his sister and Olivia looked at the two of them in disbelieve.

"Wow! You are both shouting at me, really?"

"Sorry your highness, we dare not do that" Emma said in a rather insincere way

"You talk all the time like you paid everything by yourself" Romeo murmured still not giving in

"I heard you and thanks to Emma paying some of it we still have a house to sleep in” Olivia replied and Emma hit the table with her spoon to stop them from arguing.

Both of them made faces at each other and to annoy her more, Romeo took part of the food in front of her.

Olivia gets upset again and is about to hit him when her phone beeps for a message notification and she stop to check the message.

"Hey, are you busy?" the message read and Olivia immediately swallow the remaining food in her mouth and drinks some water.

“This is Charles, I had to use another phone to contact you” another message came in and her mood became sour seeing its him and she continue staring at the phone without replying

“I know you are very upset with and so am I but we should meet and talk about us before things get out of hand” he send again

Emma and Romeo watch in silence curious to know who is texting her for her to look so annoyed and try to catch a glance of her screen but Olivia quickly hide it away from them

“We are over, there is nothing to talk about” she replied him and stood up then leaves to her room

"What was that?" Romeo asked Emma after she left.

"I don't know" Emma shrugged

"Could it be about money again?" Romeo guessed.

"I don’t think so, I bet that is Charles" Emma told him

"I thought they broke up already"

"I wish the same but sadly enough, no” Emma said and gives some of her food to him

"I really don’t like him" Romeo said and the two looked at each other in a funny way before bursting into laughter then there was a sudden silence between them

"Jason, do you want me to tell Olivia what happened so she can stop blaming you" Emma asked in a serious tone and Romeo shakes his head

"Don’t tell her, she will forget about it soon" he replied but Emma's mind isn't at rest

"Why do you have to confront him and endanger yourself?" She snapped at him quietly so Olivia won't hear them

"What else should I have done? I couldn’t watch that asshole treat you that way" he said back

"How is that your business? I could have handled the situation myself"

"He hit you!" Romeo yelled riled up and Emma move across the table to cover his mouth then hit him lightly.

"She will hear you"

Emma knows she should tell Olivia about what happened but fears that she might act like Romeo and try to fight her ex and more than, she might get angry that her brother is hurt because of her

"Then why do you have to date such a scumbag? Can't you please find a decent guy for once and not make yourself look so cheap to...” Emma hit him before he finish and immediately regret her action

"Shut your mouth" she said more gently than she intended to and sat down quietly beside him

"Are you feeling sorry already?"Romeo asked also realized that he has gone overboard with his words and turn to face her then he rub his palm on her cheek playfully

"You cute thing" he said with a cheeky grin and Emma slap his hands away

"Don't get cheeky with me, am your elder" she scold him jokingly

"Of course you are" he replied smiling.

Olivia comes out of the room with her clothes changed and her helmet in her hand

“What are you two doing?” she asked. Emma pushes Romeo away immediately and stood up

“I have some work, I will be back before midnight” she told them and leaves almost immediately
