Episode 18

Arriving at a shooting range, there were some men shooting and others training. Mark watched it all. "You are creating a personal army, but why all this? Are you going to declare war?"

Lorenzo went with him to the shooting range and picked up two guns. "Today, you will learn how to use a weapon."

Mark looked at him in surprise. "But I don't want to learn how to use a gun, let alone be a part of this."

Lorenzo approached him. "But whether you like it or not, you are already a part of this, my love, and I will be very calm with you learning how to use one of these, even if you like it, so take it and come with me."

Mark then took the gun, even against his will, and went with him to shoot.

Lorenzo then began to give his extractions, and Mark then began to shoot, missing a few times, and when he hit, he vibrated with joy like a child smiling.

Lorenzo watched that and found it very amusing. "Look, for someone who wasn't wanting to learn how to shoot, he's pretty happy," and gave him a surprise kiss.

Mark looked at him. "Are you crazy? Look how many people are here?"

Lorenzo looked around smiling. "So what? This way, they'll learn who you belong to."

Mark pushed him away. "I'm not your property, Lorenzo."

Lorenzo looked at him, shaking his head. "Now you're not, but just because I decided to love you instead of dominate you, Mr. Journalist," and gave him another kiss, smiling.

Mark looked at him. "You really have no way," and handed the gun to him.

Lorenzo looked at him. "You're still not aware of why you're here, are you?"

Mark sighed deeply, picking up a twig. "Honestly, no."

Lorenzo took him to a private part of the place where one could observe the beautiful green mountain and beautiful trees from afar and sat down, being accompanied by Mark, who breathed that fresh air. "And a very beautiful place. I wonder if I can take a picture of this place? I promise it will only be of this beautiful view."

Lorenzo looked smiling. "Of course, you can. You don't need to promise me. I know you wouldn't hurt me or you wouldn't have run to that road to save me."

Mark stood up, adjusting the camera. "How conceited you are, Mr. Lorenzo," and he took the photos, and then took some surprise ones of Lorenzo and started laughing at the image.

Lorenzo looked at him ugly. "Now you're really going to laugh at me there, I'll get you, you fool," going after him running.

Mark dodged him laughing and taking even more pictures of him,

But Lorenzo caught him, and they both ended up falling in the grass, and Mark closed his eyes because of the fall, but when he opened his eyes, he saw that he was on top of Lorenzo's body, who was looking at him smiling. "And you still know how to take care of yourself."

Mark looked at him smiling. "It was your fault I fell, you idiot."

Lorenzo held him by the waist and smiled. "You were the only good thing in my life, even being a stubborn grumpy, I think you and Willy are the only people I trust in my life."

Mark looked at him. "I think you're just sad."

Lorenzo looked at him smiling. "No, I'm not sad, after all, I have the person I love most here in my arms."

Mark smiled and sat beside him. "What's really bothering you?"

Lorenzo rested his head on Mark's lap, still lying on the grass, and took a deep breath, closing his eyes. "Sandro, he won't give up on finishing me off, and now that he knows about your existence, he also knows my weak point."

Mark looked at him. "What do you mean, weak point?"

Lorenzo opened his eyes, looking at him. "You are my weak point, my love."

Mark stared wide-eyed. "What do you mean, I'm your weak point, and because of the evidence I have, I was going to tell you I'm not going to use it."

Lorenzo smiled looking at him and ran his hand over his face. "I know you won't do that, my love, my weak point is because I love you and I know Sandro can use it against me by putting you in danger."

Mark looked at him and gave him a little kiss, smiling. "You don't have to worry about me now. You taught me how to use a gun. I'm ready for anything."

Lorenzo looked at him and started laughing a lot at him. "Look, if you used a gun the way you use your camera, then I would be sure you would know how to defend my love."

Mark looked at him incredulously. "How insensitive you are, Mr. Lorenzo."

Lorenzo looked at him and then at the time. "Did you take your medicine today?"

Mark looked at him surprised by his attitude. "What! Did you happen to talk to my parents about me not taking my medicine?"

Lorenzo reached into his pockets and took out the medicine. "Are you going to take it, or am I going to have to make you like a child?"

Mark took the medicine, taking it. "You idiot, how can you treat me like this and knowing that I take it more at night because this medicine makes me tired."

Lorenzo looked at him, pulling a strand of hair from his face. "Even if you get tired, you need to take your medicine, and it's good for me and your family, so if you want to keep throwing a tantrum like a child, you can. I don't care."

Mark shook his head. "Where did I go wrong?"

Lorenzo smiled, looking at him. "With the best catch of all. Shall we go home, or would you rather go to my in-laws' house?"

Mark looked at him. "We'd better go to my parents' house. I promised my sister I'd go home today."

Lorenzo picked up his blazer. "Then let's go to my in-laws' house," and they went.
