"Did the father know they left?" Adela asked.
"I don't know. Nothing reached my ears."
"Someone will do it, and father will find someone else for the job and the issue will end like never existed."
Tears rolled down her cheeks, and Agnes hugged her. A warm consolation that doesn't need elaborate words. A warm and sincere hug was enough to erase the pain, even for a while.
"You know Agnes? I think it's time for Aunt Virginia to find out that I have spoken again. I thought about it and decided. I will tell her the whole truth. "
"Yes. I think you are doing the right thing. Your aunt will understand you. What about your parents? Won't you reveal it to them? "
"I don't know yet. I don't want them to know anything about what happened, but at the same time I don't want to fall in lies either. In addition, they will want me to go back at home and I don't want that. I will think about it a little more."
"They would be so happy if they found out, Adela."
