''are you her granddaughter?''

"Yes" I say and look at her murderously

"It's out of the question," she says and is clearly surprised

''And you are with my son?''

''Yes''

"Sit down now" she says and motions for us to sit on the couch

"I don't want to sit on your fucking sofa, I want answers Penelope" I say and cross my arms. She just looks at me with a smile.

"I'm going to fucking kill you" I shout and go to attack her but Apollo holds me back.

"Let's hear what she wants, and we won't come here again"

 we are sitting on the sofa

"Sofia, I would really like to know what my mother was thinking when she divorced your grandparents. But it wasn't me. She gave me her name so that they wouldn't look for her after the problems she caused."

WHAT

no way

"Sick lies, tell the truth" I say very sharply and strongly. She turns her head to Apollo

"Apollo, your grandfather is Ares, as is Sofia's grandfather."

This is my end

silence

failure.

''Just tell me that you didn't proceed further'' she says and tries to justify herself. I learned this information from my mother. A few days ago, when she found out that you live in Sofia.

"MOTHER, DO YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT NONSENSE YOU ARE SAYING? WE CANNOT BE COUSINS. NO. NO. NO YOU CAN'T FUCK." shouts Apollo and a tear falls on his cheek. I go to touch him but he pulls away.

''Don't touch me, cousin'' he says and emphasizes the cousin.

"Does she understand what you just said?" I say to her.

"Incest shouldn't happen, you should have learned about it," she says, clearly sad.

"I'M LEAVING DO WHATEVER YOU WANT" shouts Apollo and goes to get his coat. I go from behind and call him

"Don't do such nonsense" comes out.

"APOLLO" I shout. He's coming back.

"Don't be such a dick"

"Why Sofia? Does it matter? We're fucking cousins. You're fucking related to me." I go near him

"I don't care" I say and hug him.

"But i care" he says and pulls me off him. He put me in the car in the back seat and we arrived home. As soon as we got in we went to sleep. I go into his room.

"out.Now." he says while he's shirtless on his bed. He's smoking. When did he start smoking?

"When did you start fucking smoking"

"Why, does it matter? Today"

''Apollo..'' I say and go and sit on the bed.

"I love you " these words leave my mouth.

"I love you too, but there's nothing we can do but stay out of touch."

"How can you say that after what we've been through?"

"It's hard for me too"

"As you wish, I'm leaving" I close the door behind me. End of love.

***************

"My granddaughter, you are not my granddaughter" says a male voice

*************************

I wake up from a nightmare with my grandfather. I only remember these words. But why would he say something like that. I went to brush my teeth. But someone was taking a bath. We can all understand who. As soon as I turned on the faucet, he is started screaming.

"Calm down, I don't see anything"

"We're cousins, what the fuck don't you understand from that phrase?"

As soon as I finished I left without answering.

The day passed quickly.

We exchanged many glances with Apollo but he pushed his thoughts away.

15 days have passed since the events. As soon as I took a bath I entered Apollo's room to get my clothes. As soon as he saw me with the towel he rolled his eyes. He came over me and threw me on the bed.

"WE'RE DONE, WHAT DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND?" he shouts and looks at me.

"damn Apollo"

"DON'T SPEAK TO ME AGAIN, DON'T COME CLOSE TO ME AGAIN, I DON'T WANT TO.I DON'T LOVE YOU.I DONT WANT YOU NEXT TO ME" He didn't mean all thats shit he just spitted out but that's when I start crying. He looks at me surprised. What did he expect?

"Sorry, sorry, sorry" he says and leaves me.

"Can't you understand? I can't get you off my mind. You're hooked like a drug. I try to look at another man and I end up comparing him to you. I end up looking for someone like you. I love you fuckin' gotta spell it out to you to  realize it?''With this sentence that came out of my mouth without me even understanding it, he kissed me. I responded. I felt those lips again. He pushes me away

''NO NO NO, we can't do this fucking shit'' he shouts. I leave. I guess I shouldn't try anymore. I can wait but I can't wait forever.

***************

I saw the dream with my grandfather again and decided that I should talk to my grandmother. I went there and she appeared after I said the prayer.

"You knew all this, right? You knew I was his cousin. You knew we were together. Why the hell didn't you tell me?"

"My love, you don't know the whole truth" he says and takes my hand.

"Ares left because of Penelope's beauty but also because I cheated on him"

''WHAT DID YOU DO?''

"I cheated on him with another man"

''Why would you do that?''

''Because he didn't treat me well'' I understand her completely

"And who is he?"

"His name is Elijah Hernandez"

''Hernandez? Like Axel Hernandez?''

"Yes, your friend"

"So does that mean Axel is my cousin?"

"But how come I'm related to both of them?"

''It can not be done''
