We need to talk

"Sophia"

"Alexander, you were here"

"I think we need to talk"

"Yes sure!"

....

Alexander didn't know why Elizabeth distanced from him, he thought it was because she was too hurt to be near him, after all even if it were a few days they clicked instantly, even he himself thought that she was the woman he needed, but it seems she distanced herself from him because of Sophia.

....

"Yes Alex, what's wrong?"

"Dis you tell Elizabeth that we were together?"

"Oh Alexander, you don't have to pretend anymore, I already know that you ended up whatever you had with Elizabeth because you realized you love me"

"Sophia, I..."

"You don't have to say anything else, now that my mother and I are in good terms again I'll go talk to her about our new relationship... It's a little weird because we grow up together but I also love you"

"Sophia, please listen to me... "

"It's okay, I know that you are sad because of Elizabeth, I didn't want to hurt her either, she is such a good person, you know what she said?"

"What did she say?"

"She said that for us to be happy she will go back to her homeland, because she didn't want is to feel awkward in front of her"

"She is going back?"

"Yes, although I haven't seen that man that suddenly appeared the other day besides her, I think he will go with her so she'll be okay"

"Sophia, please before you say more listen to me"

"But, you don't need to say anything, I already know everything so you don't have to confess to me"

"It's not like that Sophia, I don't love you in that way"

"... What do you mean? Are you in love with Annabelle then?"

"What?! Of course not!"

"Then, Annabelle, Elizabeth and I are the only women that have been near you, if it's not Elizabeth, nor Annabelle then only I can be the one you truly love"

"No, there's a third one"

"What?"

"Elizabeth, do remember when we were kids I always had a certain dream that I didn't want to tell you?"

"Yes, you always told it to your male friends"

"It was because the dream was embarrassing"

"Ok, but that what has to do with the present situation?"

"Everything... "

Alexander began to recount all his dreams, obviously he omitted the sensual parts, and Sophia began to cry.

"You are saying that you are rejecting me because of a dream?"

"It's not just a dream Sophia... "

"What else could it be? She doesn't exist but you prefer her?"

"She does exist, I saw her in the nightclub the other night"

"Have you seen her again?"

"No... "

"Do you know her name? "

"Elizabeth... "

"Why is it Elizabeth again?!"

"Sophia, you are making a scene like we are a couple, I am telling you this because I don't want you to suffer but please don't go overboard"

"But why? Am I not good enough?"

"You are like my sister"

"BUT I'M NOT YOUR SISTER!!!" Sophia screamed.

"Sophia!!!"

Sophia began to cry, she knew Alexander saw her as a sister but she thought that with time he would begin to see her as a woman, she maintained herself pure and clean for him, but for him that was unnecessary.

"Why is it like this? Huh Alexander? Why is it that you can't love me?"

"Sophia, you are my sister... "

"But I don't want that kind of love, I want you to love me like a man loves a woman"

"I'm sure many men will love you like that, you are very beautiful"

"But how can I forget you? I have loved you since we were kids, I have always been at your side, I always took the punishment when you did something wrong just because I didn't want you to be sad"

"I know and that's why I see you as a sister"

"This is not fair Alexander... Why is it like this? Why can't you love me? Just because of a dream?"

"Sophia, I already told you, it's not just a dream"

"So you know where she is right now?"

"No... "

"Do you know where she lives?"

"No..."

"Do you know her surname?"

"No... "

"Then... Is it not just a dream?"

"I know I will see her again"

"What if you won't see her again ever in your life? Will you be alone until the end? Or will you take the other Elizabeth as your wife like a replacement?"

"... "

"Hahaha poor Elizabeth, she doesn't know that she is just a replacement for a dream... Thank goodness she will go back with someone that truly cares for her... I'll do the same... I'll walk away from your life, I'm tired of all the acting in front of you"

After saying that Sophia walked away, it's not like she suddenly became a good person hoping Elizabeth will be good but rather she wishes Alexander to stay alone all his life.
