"Riccardo , what's wrong? Is there a problem?" I ask worried.
He can't take his eyes off of my lower back.
"Riccardo?" I whisper his name.
"Aurora...." He said.
"Yes?"
"Since.. since when do you have the tattoo?" He asked.
What?
"What tattoo?"
"The one on your lower back."
What tattoo on-
Oh.
He is talking about the Medusa tattoo.
"It's nothing , I promise."
I don't want to talk about it..
I don't want to remember what happened that night.
"Aurora.."
We make eye contact in the mirror.
"Were you a victim?..." he asks me still holding the eye contact.
"N-no.."
"Aurora , don't lie to me."
"Maybe.."
"Maybe?" He said.
"Y-yeah.."
He skims his hand over my tattoo.
I took a deep breath.
"Who?" He asked.
"Riccardo , please."
"Who?"
"My dad." We make eye contact in the mirror.
I can feel his blood boiling inside him.
But I didn't say anything.
I don't want to remember anymore what happened that day.
"Can I buy this dress?" I ask , changing the subject.
"Of course."
"I'm going to talk to Noemi , the employee about the dress and I will pay for it. Okay?" I say.
"But I want to pay for it." He said.
"You're not paying for it."
"Why?"
"Because it's 10,440 dollars , Riccardo! It's expensive!"
He laughs.
"I have all the money no one could have and you say 10,440 dollars it's expensive?" He said.
"Yes! And that's because you're a millionaire."
He gasped.
"What?" I say.
"Don't you ever insult me like that."
"What did I say?"
"That I'm a millionaire!"
"You are!"
"I'm a billionaire, not a millionaire."
"You insulted me , Aurora. Don't ever say that."
"Okay. Mr. Millionaire."
"Aurora!"
I laugh.
"I have money so I can pay for it." I say.
