Meanwhile, in Seville, Germen tried to find a way to tell Vilu everything that was going on, but not to risk it again. Germen knew she could not hide for long ... she would want to know why Angie did not come back from Argentina. She would have to tell him that Joseph had been with her and Clara's guard and that for that reason Angie could not go to them to protect them; that Angelica was now on her grandfather's side, and that together they had managed to convince the court.

He had already spoken to Professor Castro and Dr. Herrera, and both were of the same opinion, it was a bad idea to tell Violetta something. Neither of them knew how she would react and could have a relapse. After this conversation between the three, Germen decided to tell it all, knew he could lose Vilu again, but he had promised Angie the first night in Porto that there would be no more lies or secrets.

But Rosario and also Mercedes were against this idea and tried in every way to discourage Germen to do so, the spirits at that time began to exalt themselves and it was Luis who with some calmness managed to make everyone agree to hold a meeting with the Violetta's doctors, and so that morning they were gathered in Luis's office. They all talked and no one listened, Germen just listened looking out the window ... he thought of Angie, she knew what to do or at least she would know how to tell Vilu. How he needed her, he needed her: his smile, those green eyes that soothed him and at the same time excited him ... suddenly he heard someone talking louder ...

"Enough ... one at a time if nobody understands. We all have an opinion about whether or not we tell Violetta ...

"She can not know ... she can not." Germ please, you can not be thinking about this you can not ... "implored Rosario

"Well, I also add another question: if we decide to tell what we are going to say or should tell ..." says Luis.

- What do you mean? Are you suggesting what exactly? asks Luzia, looking at her surprised husband.

"That we can just tell you that Angie can not come back because ... I do not know anything.

- More lies ... - Leon says in a sarcastic voice ... - Do you really think that Vilu will believe any lie that tells you? That Angie would stay away from her or Clara ... will never believe ...

- We have to think about Violetta and do what least makes her suffer ... - starts Luis being interrupted again by Leon.

"You still do not understand ... you're going to suffer anyway: whether you tell him or not. Vilu hates to lie to him, if he finds out that they are lying to him ... I assure you it will be worse ... - Leon almost explodes with rage, you know what can happen if you tell him, but lying is not the best solution.

"But can we or should we risk it?" Professor Castro and Dr. Herrera said that she could go back into a coma ... I think we should not risk ... "Rosário already with tears in his eyes, looks at Germ that remains at the window completely disconnected from what was being pass there

- Mom, calm down ... - said Luzia approaching her and hugging her ... - the Professor and Rodrigo just warned us about this possibility, does not mean that it happens ...

- But it can happen ... there is a high probability that it may happen ... - says Luis looking at Luzia, more than everyone else knew that there was a great chance that Vilu again have an attack and ... - we can not ignore this possibility ...

- And we are not ... so we are all here to decide what to do ... or rather to help the Germen decide ... - Luzia responds

"No ..." and looking now at Germen ... "Son, you can not tell me anything, I can not bear to lose you again. Not now that I can be with her ... you can not do this to me ... "Germen glanced momentarily at his mother, but then turned back to the window. All this was a waste of time ... he was the father and the last word was his.

"With all due respect, does Rosário really think Vilu will not ask for Angie?" For Ludmila, who, besides being a sister, left Frederick here? Of course you will realize that something is happening ...

- Leon ... I understand what you mean, and of course if we decide not to tell you we have to invent something that sounds the truth ... - says Luis ...

"The truth is only one ... and she deserves the truth," interrupts Leon again ... and looking now at Germen ... "do not you think they've lied to him enough for a lifetime?"

And at this moment Rosário begins in a heated discussion with Leon, and Luzia with Luís ... each defending his opinion: to count or not to count. Germen turns around at this point and decides that enough of that ridiculous argument is enough, it was he who would decide ... he was the father.

- Enough! I realize that everyone is worried about what will happen and how Vilu will receive the news ... but the decision is mine and not yours.

"Germ, please ..." asks Rosário already in tears, almost pleading with his eyes not to do so.

- I still do not know what I'm going to do ... - looking directly at her mother ... - we all suffer from what happened and no one wants to suffer again. Professor, Rodrigo, I want the truth: what is the real possibility that Vilu will fall back into a coma?

- Well the truth and that there is a small possibility, however, we can not say with certainty ...

- Then it might not happen ...

"Mr. Castillo, everything depends on her. Of how her body wants the physical part, whether the mental part processes the news ... - says the Professor ... - unfortunately we can not give a concrete answer.

- Okay, I got it. "Germen walks to the door, and suddenly someone is clinging to him.

- Germ. Think about what you're going to do, please.

- Mom, I need to be alone and think ... but you have to realize that I will not lie to Violetta, I can omit some things to protect her, but I will not lie to her.

- Then you'll tell him ...

"I'll tell you something ... I just have to decide what I'm going to tell you and what I'm going to hide." Or if I'm going to hide something ... Leon in one thing is right I've already lied to Vilu for a lifetime.

In Violetta's bedroom, Tati tried to cheer her up, but despite all her efforts it seemed that nothing stirred her mood. Frederico, who was with them, knew very well the reason for all that dismay

- No. I'm almost 9 years old. "Tatiana says that as if she were 18 years old, which makes Frederico and Violetta give a little laugh.

- Almost ... not 9 years. And I think you're still too young to have a boyfriend. - Frederick tells him.

- No, I'm not ... Violetta ... Violetta ... - but Vilu was in your world ... - Violettaaaaaaaa ....

"I'm sorry, Tati, I was thinking of something else ... and ..."

- Well we realized ... but getting back to the point ... - Violetta can not avoid a smile because Tati sometimes had conversations that seemed to be much older than it was ... - You think I'm too young to have a boyfriend? And Frederick says yes, but ...

- Well Tati ... the truth is ... well, dating is a very serious thing ...

- I know ... so you think I'm too young too?

- Good you know. Do you like this boy? - Tati says yes with his head ... - And he likes you?

- Yes ... I mean ... I think so ...

- You know I'll tell you a secret: you know the boys are a little slower in this love thing ...

- Hey! I'm here ... and we're not slow, we're careful ...

"Do not call him, it took him ages to realize that he could not live without Ludmila ..."

"Vilu, what do I do then?" asks Tatiana.

"How about if for now you were just a friend ... a special friend, the one who helps him when he needs it, the one who makes him laugh when he's sad, who hugs him when he needs ...

"You think you will not forget me?" Do you think when we're older will you be my boyfriend?

"I'm sure-how could anyone not want to be the boyfriend of a girl like you."

- You see Frederico ... - says Tati with a face of who had won a war ... - Vilu thinks I'm old enough to have a boyfriend, you guys are slower.

And with that either Violetta or Frederick began to laugh out loud, it was amazing the ability Tati had to argue and lead her on. But despite all this excitement, Vilu began again to think about what everyone was hiding from him, Frederick realized that she was in his world again.

- Vilu. I know you, what's going on?

"Does Vilu hurt you?" Tati asked, already worried.

"No Tati ... she's rested, she does not hurt at all. I'm just a little sad that I do not have Angie and Ludmila here with me ... I miss you, miss you so much.

- Tati ... I had an idea ... - and making a sign called her and in her ear told her something that made the girl smile and leave the room.

"What did you give her?" Violetta asks suspiciously.

- Secret ... but while on and off we can talk the two ...

- You know what's going on, do not you? You have to know, Ludmila would not stop talking to you ...

"Vilu, I know what you know ... besides, Ludmila and I were angry, or rather, I was angry ... I have not spoken to her since that day.

Frederick did not know what to say, he was not lying, not properly, he was perhaps omitting some things, but he could not tell him anything else. The doctors, Germen, the grandmother, the uncles and even Leon were at that moment deciding whether to tell him everything that was going on or if they told him only a few things. It was not for him to say anything, though it cost him the whole situation too, to be far from the one he loved ... or even to speak to Ludmila. But Clara and Vilu were willing to live this way. Finally Tati appeared with what Frederick had asked him to fetch: a chocolate.

"So that's what you came for?" How did you know I love chocolate?

- It was a little bird that happened to tell me ... - and he laughed ...

"And this little bird happens to be called Germen?" - Tati shakes her head ... - Hmmm Leon? - and Tati laughs ... - I know, Frederico? - and the three of them laugh in full lungs until the three of them start to eat the chocolate.

Germ was in the hospital garden thinking about what she was going to do, she knew that by telling Violetta everything she could have another crisis and fall back into a coma. But on the other hand she was sure she would not rest until she knew what was going on and when Angie came back ... and that was perhaps what would make her suffer the most.

Rosario could not wait to be waiting for Germen to do, he could not say anything. She got up determined to go and talk to her son alone, she could try to talk him into saying nothing. Although everyone told him that this was his decision, and only his, Rosário did not give up the idea and went looking for him. After some time in search of Germen he found him next to a small garden with red roses.

- Maria's favorites ... and hugged her son ...

- Mom ... what are you doing here? Please, Mom ... I can not stand any more arguments ...

"Germen, I'm only asking you to listen to me please ... I'll tell you nothing later, and I'll let you decide."

- Mom ... - looking at Rosario already with tears in the eyes Germen could not deny his request ... - all right say.

"Germen, how do you think Vilu will react when she learns that Joseph has won her custody and Clara in court, that Angie can not go back because he can know where you are, that you will live hidden and separated.

- I know it's going to be difficult but ...

"But ... Germ, she's going to live in prison again." Walking from country to country, you really think ...

"Mom ... I know it's going to be difficult, but if I do not say anything, she'll ask questions until she has all the answers."

- Then do not give him the right answers ...

"Mom, I will not lie to anyone else ... ever again. And Vilu ... you'll realize that I'm hiding something from you.

- Germen ... please ...

"Mom, I've already heard you and I realize that you're worried and I'm ... but lying to Vilu, I'm not going. The only thing I have to decide is what I tell and what I will omit.

Rosario hugged him, kissed him, and left. He realized that nothing he was going to say would make him change his mind, so he left him to make the final decision.
