Episode 15

In the morning, Mark woke up with a headache and was groaning about it when he saw Lorenzo sleeping sitting up. He quickly got up and woke him up, worried.

Lorenzo looked at him and smiled: "I see you're awake and didn't drool like a baby."

Mark glared at him: "Can you explain to me why you are sleeping here instead of the bed? This could be bad for your health. Come sit here."

Lorenzo sat down and sighed, lowering his head: "I think that in this world there are only two people who, even with my difficult personality..."

Mark looked at him in surprise: "Are you okay, Lorenzo?"

Lorenzo held his hand and looked at him: "Here with your family, I see that I never had this in my life. I always studied in boarding school, had private lessons, always had to worry about preparing myself to take over the family business. I don't think I've ever really lived my life. I think I envy you a little."

Mark looked at him: "My family is nothing to be envious of. They always fought hard to take care of me and my sister. That's why I started working early to help out at home and also to pursue my dream of becoming a journalist and to support my sister's studies so that I could see her graduate as the doctor she deserves to be."

Lorenzo smiled, looking at him: "I think meeting you in the midst of all this chaos was the only good thing that happened in my life."

Mark stared at him in surprise and hugged him tightly: "I just hope I won't regret this, Mr. Lorenzo Maximiliano."

Lorenzo, still hugging him: "I think you're a little confused?"

Mark pulled away, looking at him: "Confused how? I know very well what I'm feeling, even with you always threatening my life and my family's, and even after you kidnapped me and kept me prisoner for days. I know what I'm feeling for you, and I discovered it when I almost lost you in that place."

Lorenzo looked at him, holding his face, and kissed him.

Willy came walking in and saw them kissing: "Seriously, boss?"

Mark looked at him, pulling away from Lorenzo: "I think I'm going to take a shower," he said, embarrassed, and left the room.

Willy looked at Lorenzo, laughing: "Well, my friend, I think the tables have turned."

Lorenzo leaned back on the sofa, sighing deeply: "It's true, my friend, and honestly, I don't think I've ever felt happier in my whole life, even with this complicated life I live."

Willy sat down: "What are you going to do about your brother Sandro, my friend? After all, with what your boyfriend said about your brother and also the photos obtained by your boyfriend's driver, we already know that he was the one to blame for what happened to us today?"

Lorenzo snorted bitterly, looking at the ceiling: "I think my brother never liked me, and after what he did to me now, I just had my absolute confirmation. And we're going to give him a show."

Willy looked at him: "What are we going to do, boss?"

Lorenzo looked at him, smiling: "We're going to wait for him to put on his own little show with the family first."

Anya came in carrying her books and saw them there: "What are you two lovebirds doing sitting there? You shouldn't be like this. Honestly, you two as my patient guinea pigs are disappointing."

Lorenzo looked at her: "We were your human guinea pigs? How crazy are you, girl?"

Anya looked at them and started laughing: "Don't worry, I know very well what I'm doing, and that's why you're both still alive. And if I did, it was because of my brother, who likes you, Mr. Lorenzo, and I really hope you don't hurt him."

Lorenzo stood up, looking at her: "I guarantee you one thing, I will never let your brother suffer or let anyone hurt him, little girl. And from now on, not only is he under my protection, but so is your entire family, sweetie."

Anya looked at him: "I advise you never to hurt my brother if you still want to keep that pretty face of yours like that." And to Willy, "As for you, Mr. Willy, you owe me a lot of explanations. Honestly, you two," she said and left for college.

Willy stared in the direction she left, smiling: "I don't think you're the only one smitten here, boss."

Lorenzo shook his head, going into the bedroom and saw Mark's mother putting clean clothes on the bed. When she saw them, she smiled: "I brought clean clothes for you two. My son's should fit just right. After all, you three are the same size and height. And don't worry about the clothes, my son asked me to bring them to you."

Lorenzo looked at the clothes on the bed: "Ma'am, why didn't he bring them himself? Where is he?"

The lady smiled, putting her hands on his: "My son already left for work and asked me to look after you both, so don't worry about a thing."

Lorenzo looked at her: "Thank you for everything, ma'am."

She smiled at him: "I'm the one who thanks you for bringing happiness back to my boy's face."

Lorenzo hugged her: "Your son is a very special person to me, too."

She then caressed his face, smiling: "You're special too, my dear boy. Now go get changed, both of you. Coffee's ready. Mark made it before he left."

Willy looked at her: "That fast?"

She looked at him: "He already leaves everything organized at night, and when morning comes, it's just a matter of preparing everything and it's ready. Now let me go to work, or my old man will tear the place down without me," she said and left.

Lorenzo picked up the clothes, smelling the perfume, and smiled.

Willy looked at him: "I don't think I'm going to wear these clothes."

Lorenzo looked at him: "What's wrong?"

Willy looked at the clothes: "Because it's your boyfriend's, I don't think it would be appropriate, boss."

Lorenzo looked at him: "Don't be silly, you can wear them. It's just clothes and nothing more because the content is all mine," he said with a smile and went to take a shower.
