Chapter 24 Chapter 24 I sighed and walked inside my walk in closet took our memory box , then walked back to my bedroom and fell back on the bed .
Looking at the first picture of a 9 year old little Lola and a 16 year old me , I smiled and fought tears because I knew I messed up .
She didnt even take this box with her .
Does that mean she wanted to forget all about me ? The box had all sorts of pictures : our dates , our birthday celebrations .
On our trips outside the US , I took the last picture .
It was the picture of her on her prom day with me .
As I was about to put the picture away , I felt there was something behind the picture .
I flipped the picture over , and I saw a letter attached to the picture .
I opened it up and started reading .
To : My dearest knight in shining armor To my Prince Charming .
I know you wont probably read this .
We have grown so much that we now have the weight of the world on our shoulders .
Promises were made and promises were broken .
I have been writing letters since we made that promise .
But I never got to give you any of the letters because each time I tried to be brave , you would show up with your latest fling .
I never complained .
As long as I got to be your friend and your little sister , I was okay .
Learning to get over you was one of the hardest things to do .
When I met you , I thought you were the most beautiful spaceman I had ever seen .
I liked you , and I want to be your princess .
It was childlike love then , and we made promises , one of which I kept even though I didnt know what I was doing .
When I turned 16 , I developed feelings for you , and I couldnt control how I felt .
It was hard to watch you with your latest flings in magazines every week I didnt even recognize the jealousy I had back then , but I learned to live with it .
I loved you so much that I had to understand that I wasnt of age .

I was so sure that you were the one , but life had other plans for us .
So many times you took me out , I thought you would tell me I wasnt the only one feeling the connection between us .
So many times I waited to hear that L word coming from your mouth .
I was so sure about my prom night , but nothing happened .
Then there were my birthdays and our late night dinner dates ; I guess I expected too much from you .
I thought you would continue with your flings , but then Candice came along .
I saw how you looked at her and how you loved her .
the Thats when I knew there would never be us .
I learned to be your sister and your best friend and gave up fairytale .
I became an altruist and let you be happy with the one you love .
I was okay .
I wont lie .
It took me a while to get used to the idea that you wanted Candice , not me .
Candice was cool and lively .
Seeing you with her was hard , but I got over it .
I wanted to let you know that .
You were the best , even though the promises we made were broken .
I also wanted to let you know that during that week when I stayed out , I wasnt with a man .
I lied because I wanted to see your reaction , and I lied that I started having sex .
I wanted you to be my first .
But then that will never happen since you are happy with Candice .
As long as I get to be around you and be your best friend , Im okay .
After all , thats what friends are for .
With love , Your Princess ( Lolita ) I tried to process everything , but I failed .
What have I done ? She felt the same way about me this whole time .
What have you done , Dante Monroe ? -Martha- Emily , do you know why I summoned you here ? Not at all , maam .
17.3 % Chapter 24 You are a family doctor , correct ? And I know that the information I am about to request is confidential .
Howe the future of this family is at stake .
Youre going to tell me what happened to my daughter on her wedding day ? I breathed out .
Everything Tim sorry , Mrs.
Monroe , but Im afraid I wont be able to share that with you .
Lola vanished , and she didnt leave a note or anything indicating where she was going .
Do you realize that if something happens to her , you will be held accountable ? What if she is alone and sick ? And you are refusing to disclose to me the information I have just requested ? Emily and Dante are the only ones who know what happened that night .
I have asked Dante , but I can see through his lies .
He is my son , but I know very well that he is the reason my Lola left .
Emily is my last hope at this moment .
Emily may not know where Lola is , but I am certain she is aware of what is wrong with her and the reason for her sudden disappearance .
I will make sure she tells me everything I need to know about that night , everything started with that night .
