He didn't even know when the tears had begun to fall but they had. His head bowed over her body as the hot stairs marred his cheeks. He'd done wrong by the girl and he knew there was nothing he could do to set it right. He'd tried to find Alexey, and short of leaving Adelaida he'd done everything in his power. Perhaps he shouldn't have tried to protect her from the pain of knowing that Alexey was gone but the sweethearted boy had thought that giving the lost sister time to find herway back to them would be enough.. but she'd never returned and he'd held the truth from the one who needed her far too long.
The snarls and enraged words she spat at him he knew he deserved even if she'd regret them one day or atleast take them back. He closed his eyes as she seemed to give up on raging at him as he whispered. "I know.. I know.." His heart was breaking at the wounds he'd given her but he couldn't unmake his choice and he couldn't bring Alexey back. He was here and he would always remain but he knew that there was no way he could convince her of that. He'd basically lied to her this long.. he couldn't make her trust him again.. but he knew the world would be a dull place if she ran.. if she took the same path that Alexey had.
