(English version) Looking for my lost paradise

Hi, I'm Sofia, and on this blog I'm going to post some of the stories that I've written. They are stories of romance with some drama and little comedy, but not much (I admit I'm not very good at it). I hope you like them, and if you read them please comment.
The first story that I'm going to post is Buscando mi paraíso perdido, which means "Looking for my lost paradise". It's one of my favourite stories, and I hope you like it as much as I like writing it :)

CHAPTER I


Finally the school year was about to end , and I would spend 3 months in Blue Bay with Hugo! We had been chatting and talking on the phone all winter, and it was almost a year since I last saw him. I was a little bit worried because during the month of June he didn't reply to any messages or picked up the phone, but I thought:

-Calm down, Lena, and don't worry, his phone must probably have broken , remember that he had a very old one...
On July 1st, my mother took my brother Leo and I to Blue Bay by car.
-Goodbye boys , take care of each other, remember I'll pick you up in 2 months. Give your aunt lots of kisses from me! - She said as she started to drive away.
-Goodbye Mom!- I said.
-Goodbye, we love you mom!-Leo said.
We waved until we stopped seeing the car, and then we started to walk towards my aunt's house. We knocked on the door, and our aunt opened it. She was wearing a turquoise dress too low cut, which revealed ... well, almost everything.
-Oh, Helena, my child! You are so beautiful! And Leonardo, how old you are now! Come in, we were waiting for you- she said. She gave us two kisses and made us  walk into the living room decorated with Hawaiian style where my cousin and our best friend Elisabeth Isi were sitting on the coach.
-Lena! Leo!- They both said, and hugged us- How are you? I's been almost a year since we last saw you!
Leo flushed, as he always did when he approached Elisabeth.
-I'm fine- I told them- And you girls ?
-Very well- said Isi- Peter and I are doing great, we've been together for 6 months!
-Great! And what about you, Eli?- I asked.
-There are so many things I want to tell you! A new nightclub has been opened near the beach and it'ss always full of gorgeous guys! In addition, this summer is going to be held here the regional beach volleyball championship, and that means we'll see lots of hot boys!
Leo looked uncomfortable, cause this friend of mine is a bit silly, and she hasn't realized yet that my brother's been caught by her for long. At that point I decided that this summer I would deal with them together, and for that I needed Isi's help .
After talking for a while, my aunt went to the beach, and we four ate paella.
-By the way, do you know anything about Hugo ? - I asked as we ate .
-No, it's been month since we last saw him, but as he spends the day doing climbing, scuba diving, parasailing, and all that stuff, it is normal not to see him very much- said Eli.
-Why do you ask that?- said Isi- Have you had a fight or something?
-No, it's just that for about a month he hasn't replied to any message or phone call- I told them.
-Well, sure he will have lost his mobile, maybe it dropped out of his pocket while doing skydiving- Eli said.
-Yes, I don't need to worry about it- I said.
After eating , we all nap slept for some hours, and in the afternoon Elisabeth and Isi asked us to go to the beach.
-Uhm... I'd better go to see Hugo- I said .
-Ok, then go and later you'll tell us, huh ?- Isi and Eli said.
As I left home, I started to run to our meeting point, because I couldn't wait to see him, I missed him so much ... I reached the bank where we always met, and I saw a guy sitting on it. I walked quickly, but when I was closer I realized that it wasn't Hugo, but Diego, his older brother. Diego was a year older than Hugo, so that means he was 2 years older than me, and he was really different from his brother. He had black hair and green eyes, while Hugo was blond and blue-eyed. Also, people always said that Hugo was the good one, sweet and lovely, and that Diegowas more lonely, quiet and cold. He looked at me and said :
-Hello, Helena. I was waiting for you.
-Why are you here? And where's Hugo?- I asked- This is our meeting point, you shouldn't be here.
-I'm here because I heard you had come today, and I had to say something to you before someone else does- he began. He looked sad , and I started to get scared, but his next words did not scare me, but they left me so sad that were recorded in my memory forever...-
Hugo died last month.
