12th Episode - Friendship (S1 Ep12-1)

1.   Our secret

The mere idea of what I had just witnessed was not only unimaginable as terrifying. I was so scared ...

Joan: What are you doing here? - Asked just before changing an enigmatic look with Mikhael and from my expression realized it was too late! I saw his face and the fear was explicit in mine.

Rose: Get away from me!

Joan: Rose, please! Don't be afraid!

Rose: What have you done? Elizabeth ... Elizabeth is dead!

Seth: Rebecca let her go. - I looked at Mikhael and the sweet sound of his voice was reflected in his eyes. He was embarrassed, not looking at me directly, but I felt he wished no harm to me.

Joan: I can't let her go like this...

Rose: Do your worst punishment, but remember, I won't be the only one to live with it.

Joan: Punishment?! Rose, no ... I ...

Rose: Elizabeth told me everything. - I looked for Mikhael with contempt, disappointment. - Or almost everything!

Joan: Elizabeth? Yes, of course. You didn't get out of the library?! Apparently, I'm not the only one with secrets.

Seth: Rebecca, don't! I beg you! - The grandeur that reflected by your posture, was falling apart in his words.

Joan: Rose! Rose, look at me. You get lost! Professor Seth found you close to his house, you gave him your address and he took you home.

Rose: Professor Seth?! - I looked at Mikhael. - Found me and took me home.

Joan: Mikhael, please. - Holding back the tears, asked Mikhael to accompany me.

Mikhael?! How could I be so right and so wrong at the same time!? How? Joan was like a sister and ... Mikhael, the Prince of my dreams ...

I follow the "professor Seth" to his car. Few were the minutes that silence reigned because Seth knew more about me than I could imagine.

Seth: Joan did not compel you.

Rose: Joan?!

Seth: Anastacia… – Let a smile escape on fear – Sorry. Rose, you know what happened, Joan’s spell did not affect you!

Rose: Are you like your friend? Are you going to try to redo my memory too?!

Seth: No Rose, you are free to make your own decisions.

He stopped the car near my house and let me get out freely but I couldn't go without saying anything…

Rose: Thank you.

Seth: What for?

Rose: For respecting my will.

Seth: I always will!

His words sounded to someone’s who I've always known. Even not knowing how I felt him as part of me. Someone for whom I would give my life. His sweet face, his sweet look…
