Chapter 83 Emptyness 

He didn’t say a word, he just drove there.

When we arrived, I got out of the car. He followed me, holding his gun. I didn’t want to fight, so I didn’t bring my gun with me. All that I wanted was to tall. When I told them who I was and what I wanted, they asked me to wait. I waited about ten minutes, when I saw Carlo walking towards the fence. 

“Weren’t we clear enough last time?” He asked me 

“I don’t want to fight, I just want to see Alice, just for a minute, please.” 

“I can’t do that.” He said, and he turned his back to me. He walked toward the house, but I couldn’t let him go. 

“Only for a minute. I just want to make sure she is alive.” 

He turned back and looked into my eyes for a second. 

“She is fine. Please leave now.” 

Then he turned his back to me again, and he left. I kicked the fence, which made them point their guns at me. Sam held me back. I tried to get free; I wanted to get in somehow. 

“Gideon, if you make them shoot you down, that won’t help the situation. Calm down, please, and let me take you home.” 

He told me. It took me a few seconds for me to stop. When I moved my gate to the guys on the other side of the fence, seeing them doubled, I listened 

to Sam this time. 

I shook Sam’s hand off me, and I walked back to the car. I heard him sigh, then follow me. He took me home. 

I walked back to my bedroom, and I sat down on my bed, holding my head. It was a great torture. I sat there for a few minutes, then I headed to the dressing room 

I found her suitcase, and 1 searched. What I was looking for? I did not know. 

Soon, I found her old documents and a few pictures of her. There was one where she stood on the first place of the podium wearing her figure skates. She wore a beautiful blue and white ice skating dress, and she smiled happily, with a gold medal on her neck, holding a bunch of flowers. 

I took the picture, and I put it on my bedside table. I undressed, and I went to bed. 

“A frame. I need a frame.” I whispered to myself, then I fell asleep soon. 

Alice 

About a month has passed since I last saw Gideon. It was easier, but I didn’t miss him less. 

Despite I missed him, I felt more comfortable with my new family. I loved to be with Matteo, and 1 think Alexandra slowly became my friend. Riccardo taught me to drive. Even if he said after the first time there was not much I had to know, I still needed practice. 

He told me about the car that I had got. It was safe and well protected. He said, after Alexandra’s accident, he changed the existing ones to these. could imagine how much they cast, but I also realised for Riccardo the most important thing was the safety of his family, including me.

It was Alexandra’s birthday when we took the last driving lesson, She didn’t want a huge celebration. She said she was the happiest when she could be with her family. 

We drank a bit after dinner. They told stories about how they met, and also about Matteo. Even though I liked them and they did everything to forget about my past, to make me happy, watching them together made my heart ache. That reminded me of Gideon. When we were together. 

After dinner, Alexandra went upstairs to put Matteo to sleep. I reminded me of the past again. 

. I felt like I had to have some fresh air, so I went outside a bit. It was sunset. That 

“Alice.”

I turned my head toward the familiar voice. Riccardo walked towards me. 

“May I join?” 

I nodded with a smile. He sat down next to me and he watched me. 

“What?” I asked. 

“How are you, 

Alice? 

I shrugged my shoulders. 

“You seem like you are okay here, but many times you are far away,” 

“I think I just still need a bit of time to get used to having a family,” 

“That is understandable.” 

He took a nice box out of his pocket and he took a cigar out of it. He moved further and lit it, making sure the smoke wouldn’t reach me 

“What about skating, Alice? You said you are going back to it. 

I shrugged my shoulders again. 

“Don’t you want to continue?” 

1 was thinking for a little while. 

“I don’t know.” I said with a nervous laugh. “I mean, that was what I really wanted, but now 

at now 1 just don’t kno

“Well, if that was what you really wanted, then you should try. That might put you in a better mood?”

I frowned. I indeed asked him, but then I just wasn’t sure. Skating always helped me to escape when reality was too hard. It always gave me strength, and I loved to know there was something that I was good at. 

“Maybe you are right. But I’m afraid I missed a lot. I don’t even know when I trained last time.” 

As soon as I finished the sentence, I remembered just before I got home, I did not find Gideon there, and questioned him out of jealousy, which made him angry, and he abandoned me.
