Episode 10

Ivan: Patricio, have you investigated who the singer is?

Patricio: Not much, her name is Lola, and she's been here since she was fifteen. She's not American... I spoke to one of the dancers, paid her well, and she'll give me more information. But if you just want to sleep with her, offer money to the owner and that's it. However, she is the most expensive one in the bar.

Ivan: I'll think about it, but I saw something in her eyes as if she didn't like being in that place. It seemed like she was crying out to be rescued from the tower where a dragon has trapped her...

Patricio: Hmm, you know what, my friend? Don't watch cartoons. I'll tell my adopted sisters not to watch Rapunzel with you, hahaha.

Ivan: Don't be silly... changing the subject. The merchandise will arrive tonight. You know I don't want any mistakes with the Italians. I dislike incompetence, Patricio. Everything must be perfect...

Patricio: I know, Lucifer...

Ivan: Here, I am Ivan, you fool...

Patricio: Hahaha, just kidding...

Knock knock knock

Linda: Hello, my love, I'm here... I missed you.

Ivan: Sweetheart, I wasn't expecting you. You didn't tell me anything...

Linda: Well, I wanted to surprise you. Are you upset?

Ivan: No, baby, I missed you too.

Patricio: I guess I'm extra here. I don't like being a third wheel. See you, Ivan, and have a good day, Linda.

Linda: You're stupid, Ivan. Make your friend shut up.

Ivan: Patricio, shh, I don't want an argument. Go to work now.

Patricio: Yes, sir, as you command...

Linda: Love, I don't like how your friend treats me. I hope you distance him from your life once we get married...

Ivan: What's wrong with you, Linda? My friends are mine, not yours, and Patricio is like a brother to me. And you should try to win over my sisters and Patricio because they are my family...

Linda: But, love, your sisters are difficult. What do you want me to do? Besides, I'm marrying you, not them. They're already adults.

Ivan: You know they are my life, and I'm all they have. If you allow me, I have work to do. We can talk tonight at your apartment...

Linda: Are you kicking me out, Ivan?

Ivan: Take it however you want.

Linda: Goodbye, Ivan. I won't forgive you for what you just did...

And Linda stormed out, very angry...

Ivan: Linda, Linda, forgive me, Linda. I will go to her apartment later to apologize. She doesn't deserve to be treated like this. I don't know what's wrong with me since I met that singer...

Linda: Don't think, Ivan, that you can treat me however you like. And those classes by your sisters, they're adults, I don't want them near me or that friend of yours. I only want your money, I want financial status, and no one will interfere with my plans. You're mine, Ivan, and anyone who tries to ruin everything I've built, I will kill them. I swear, I will kill them.
