DIANA
Now that I was alone with Antonio, I suddenly felt self-conscious and clueless about how to act around him. He had finished talking on the phone with Dom, and my mind was racing.
Should I stay by his side?
Or should I go and wait in the living room?
Should I have asked Dom to pick me up?
What if he didn't want me around but wasn't able to say it on my face?
I hope his mother wakes up soon. He looks so sad.
I hadn't been around people for far too long, and it had a very negative impact on my social skills. I didn't know how to be myself, because I didn't know who I was anymore.
But one thing I knew right now was that I wanted to be with him. So, gathering up all the courage I had, I finally walked up to him and sat on the edge of the bed towards his mother's legs, facing Antonio.
He was sitting with his head in his hand while the other hand was resting on his mother's arm.
