KAMILA
Present Day
“ A fter that, I heard Ana on the phone the next morning breaking up with you. I never heard from or saw you again until a couple of months ago.” I wipe a fresh tear away. Reliving that day used to piss me off, now it just hurts. Tonight, all I feel is guilt and longing. Longing for the man who is standing just a few feet away from me and guilt over the betrayal I’ve put my sister through.
“You fucking liar!” Cameron yells.
I’m startled by his choice of words and venom towards me, but when I look up, I see him pointing to Ana. I look back and forth between them again and again; the same way I have since he’s gotten here, confused as hell.
Ana no longer looks irate, she looks…anxious?
“What are you talking about, Cameron?” I tilt my head.
He smiles sarcastically at my twin and turns to me. “Your dear, sweet sister forgot to mention the best part.” He narrows his eyes. “Come on now, Ana, don’t make me do it all by myself. After all, she is your fucking sister . ”
Ana steps forward as Cameron puts an arm up as a wall separating us. He still doesn’t trust her to not overreact, and frankly, neither do I.
“Kami, don’t believe anything he says,” she blurts out. “Remember who I am. Soy tu familia?—”
Cameron lets out another sarcastic laugh. “Oh, Ana, eso es pura mierda y tu lo sabes. ” Oh, Ana, that’s bullshit, and you know it.
We both look at him dumbfounded. It was said perfectly.
“I might’ve taken some Spanish classes in the last two years.” He smiles. “ Yo sé más de lo que tú piensas , Ana.” I know more than you think I do, Ana.
Her eyes darken.
“Why don’t I go ahead and tell you the real story? The actual reason why we haven’t spoken or seen each other in two and a half years.”
