Diego felt responsible for Aska. He was there and didn't help her when she needed it. He did like her as well but I don't think he loved her. Gemma was the love of his life. I think the reason why he didn't want Gemma to know the story was not to destroy her as it destroyed him. He was also ashamed. I think the only thing keeping him alive was his need to help Aska and the baby she was carrying. Once that was done he was too. But I do think Aska was a bit in love with him at the beginning. He might have been attracted to her as she was young and beautiful. Free spirit.
