Episode 8

Valentine.

Pietro disappeared all afternoon, probably wandering around somewhere, at night when I leave the room to go home I run into him.

Pietro: I'm going to miss Mexico

Valentine: Let's go, we don't have all night, and I'm sick of this shit.

Pietro: rude

I give him a dirty look and walk towards the elevator, I enter and soon after he enters, he was wearing a very good perfume, and it suited him very well, we were silent the whole time, as soon as we arrived at the reception we run into Iago.

Pietro: Iago

Iago: I had to give you something before you left.

I see him picking up a small box and handing it to Pietro, when he opens it it was a white gold necklace.

Pietro: how beautiful.

Valentine: come on Pietro, we have to go.

Pietro: just a moment

Valentine: we don't have time for chit-chat.

Iago: go angel, I don't want to cause trouble for you, call me when you get there.

Pietro: come visit me in Italy.

Valentine: PIETRO

he looks at me angrily but I don't care, we were already late and he's chatting with this Iago guy, he hugs his friend and starts walking towards me, there was already a car waiting for us and we got into the back seat , we were silent all the way, but Pietro wouldn't get off his damn cell phone, we quickly reached the jet, each one sat in the same place they came from, from afar I saw him fiddling with Instagram and I see it was Iago's, so I approach him.

Valentine: you shouldn't trust everyone.

Pietro: I don't trust.

Valentine: It doesn't seem like it, you go around kissing anyone at clubs.

Pietro: And what's your problem with that? It's my life.

Valentine: you live as if you were just a teenager who thinks kissing anyone is fun.

Pietro: I'm already 18, and I'm more mature than a lot of men out there, if you know what I mean.

Valentine: are you calling me immature?

Pietro: You got all nervous because of a kiss, it's like I have some contagious disease, kissing another man doesn't make you gay, rest assured.

Valentine: shut the fuck up, you don't know anything.

Pietro: Can you act like an adult? We're going to have to live together on a daily basis, either you get over the kiss or it's going to be difficult to work together.

Valentine: Don't tell anyone about this kiss.

Pietro: yes boss..

Valentine: and throw the damn necklace away, it could have a tracker, we don't want anyone to know our location.

Pietro: It's not necessary, I already looked at the necklace and there's nothing, don't forget that I'm the best at these things.

I leave Pietro and go back to where I was before, I close my eyes to get some sleep, but instead I keep remembering the kiss, I've never kissed anyone like that, I must be going crazy, Pietro is a child, he's only 17 years old, but why can't I forget that damn kiss.

After a long time I finally arrive in Italy, my father was waiting for me on the runway, Pietro and I got off the jet without saying a word and went to my father.

Hector: How was the trip?

Valentine: as it should be.

Pietro: we got some information, I'll send you the report by email.

Hector: thank you very much Pietro, you as always doing an excellent job.

Pietro: thank you sir, I'll go home as soon as I get there and send the files.

He looks at me and gets in the car in the back seat with me, my father goes in the passenger seat next to the driver, I look to the side and I see Pietro exchanging messages with Iago, we go all the way in silence, my father drops him off at his parents' house where he still lived and then drops me off at my place.

As soon as I get home I take a shower, I get out of the bathroom only in my boxers and lie on the bed, I needed to rest, I close my eyes and Pietro's damn kiss comes to my mind, even the smell of the damn perfume he wears I begin to feel.
