After school

"i'm going to go, now that Maria's here" I inform Matteo before leaving.

"where are you going?" he says in a warning tone "to some cafe" I wasn't lying because we were then we'd go back to the abandoned house. "really? which one?" He tilts his head slightly, "I'm not sure but we'll find one. why" I mimic his head tilt "no reason"

I walk out and find Maria waiting "hey" "hey, I already got us drinks I got you a caramel frappe" I thank her and continue to walk away from the gate. 

"Madam! Miss Sofia" I could hear one of the family drivers call my name "yes?" I look at Maria and shrug "I was assigned to take you to a cafe" he chuckles "no thank you we have our drinks" I inform him ready to leave "well where are you headed now? I could drive you" he suggested, in a nervous tone "sir I like to walk when I can, so if you don't mind my friend and I must go" I turn on my heels before he has the chance to protest again.

"What was his deal?" Maria mutters "Matteo probably told him to take us" I shrug

Time Skip

"I still can't believe you ran all the way here for me" Maria scoffs "adrenaline I guess" I shrug "we missed something here, I think this is my mothers old house" I start rummaging through everything including the empty draws we checked last time we were here. After a couple of minutes Maria and I gave up, "nothing's here" I whine.

"want me to walk you home?" Maria suggets but i decline her offer "i don't want to go home because i'm scared of them, what if i annoy them and then.. you know" i trail off "that's why you've been so distant"

i nod "they'd never hurt you" she side hugged me and we continue to walk.

At home

i walked into my room to find papa, Marco, Matteo, Enzo and even Antonio in my room we all stared at each other for a moment before I spoke up "why are you in here?" i notice my draws and violin case open.

 "we were looking for.. the board but i see you threw it away" Marco nods at Antonio's excuse "well i'd like to shower before dinner, so.." i point to the door as they all leave, letting out a breath i didn't realize i was holding.

I sat at the dinner table by myself since i didn't have anything better to do and dinner was in 10 minutes, i just sat there thinking about the recent events that's been happening, soon enough everyone sat down at the table eating dinner. 

"your aunt will be coming over tomorrow so I expect both of you on your best behavior" father speaks up "we have an auntie!" Bianca squeals and for some reason Enzo snickers, recently Enzo and Bianca had been fighting and no one knew why other then me, Enzo and Bianca. 

"what's your problem" Bianca raises her voice, "I know she wont like you"  Enzo fake smiles at her "she'd like me more then her" she drops her fork and points to me, I had nothing to do with their conversation though? 

"first off, never include Sofia in our arguments because she has nothing to do with them, second I'd like to announce the fact that Bianca has been planning to move back in with her 'parents' and leave us. and lastly we don't care because you were never a part of this family, you're adopted" Enzo states. My eyes widen with Bianca's, "Enzo Apollo Marchetti!" Father buds in but there wasn't much he could do. 

I look at Bianca who seemed a little hurt "i'm going on the flight to America tomorrow at 5:00 so don't expect me to be here when you wake up" she storms out "Bianca" Marco tries to stop her but she was gone "Sofia.." I was still in shock.

 "so shes not my real sister" I felt guilty for being happy about it "no" they all look down ashamed "okay" i've lost everything, and i've finally accepted it.

"goodnight" I turn on my heels and leave.
