Spring had arrived in the small town of Pravi. The flowers were blooming, the sun was shining on the alleys, and the quiet of the town suddenly seemed sweeter after so much fear and uncertainty.
The group sat together in the mansion, in the large living room that had seen so many mysteries, so many revelations, and so many fears. The diary, the photograph, and the box were now neatly arranged in a drawer, as if they were just memories now—memories that had taught them, united them, and changed them.
Gabriel looked at Dorella sitting next to him. Every minute he spent with her reminded him of how important she was to him, not just as a friend but as something more. His heart beat a little faster when she smiled or gave him an innocent look.
I have feelings for Dorella. I love her with all my heart. And I won't be that blind again.
Dorella, for her part, watched Gabriel and felt something similar. Every time she saw him taking care of their friends or facing difficult situations with such determination, her heart beat faster. And everyone knew it.
These two were now a couple!
Lily, sitting a little further away, watched the couple with a smirk. I see them… and I know what they feel. They're sweet and a little scary together, she thought.
Peter, with his usual ironic tone but also a touch of tenderness, wiped his hands on his pants and said, "Okay, guys… I can't say I don't like this atmosphere. It's like watching two brothers finish a difficult case… but with hearts that beat a little differently."
Everyone laughed lightly, relaxing for the first time in so much tension. The pain was behind them, and a new era of friendship, trust, and… perhaps the first innocent feelings of love were opening up before them.
Gabriel gently took Dorella's hand. "I think after what we've been through… we can start living without fear."
Dorella looked into his eyes and smiled, feeling the warmth of the moment. "I agree… it's time to leave the secrets behind."
The sun was slowly setting on the mansion, bathing the living room in golden light. Their group had emerged from the shadow of death and mystery. Their lives had changed, their bonds had strengthened, and for the first time in a long time, there was a sense of peace and hope.
And so, Leo's story of revenge and family ties came to an end — but life for his friends had just begun.
