A secret is destroying us. A secret I am unable to share with her.
It isn't just myself I am protecting, but someone I love.
Wherever I turn . . . in whichever direction . . . I face a wall. I'm lost for an answer.
Our happiness so close I can touch it, so far it's eating at my soul.
If SHE wins, Pearl and I are doomed.

I don't know who Alexandre is anymore. Everything I thought we had was a lie.
He says he still wants me. Still needs me. But at a price.
The price of his silence . . .
I am not willing to negotiate.
My heart has been broken, but I have no choice but to stay strong . . .
Because it's not just myself I need to protect, but the life I carry inside me.
I am fighting for two.
