Episode 5

El Cortez:

Like any other day, I go to the office early, start to sort out some pending casino issues, and end up getting a little distracted by it all, but soon reality knocks on my door and I have to leave to take care of mafia business.

As soon as I open the damn door I spot a girl, I can't believe they're putting a junior apprentice to work with me.

Well, in my view, she is a very scruffy woman, with no vanity whatsoever, despite having a natural beauty, to me she is still a strange being.

I watch her for a few moments unnoticed, which is not surprising, as I am used to making as little noise as possible, I am used to cornering my enemy, and when he notices the attack it is too late.

After a few minutes of observing her she notices my presence, looks at me a little taken aback and awkwardly says to me.

Ayla: Good morning, sir, I'm Ayla, and I'm here to be your receptionist, and also to help you with your schedule...

El Cortez: Damn, what part of it did Deborah not understand when I asked for someone almost mute, she sends me an alien chatterbox, oh no, I hate noise.

I don't say anything, I just watch that little, scruffy, talkative being, soon she realises that her nervousness has gotten out of hand, so she says to me.

Ayla: I'm sorry sir, I think I talked too much, and that I've been in this gloomy place alone since yesterday.

El Cortez: Oh no, man, this miniature is very cheeky, how can she call my floor gloomy?

Just as she's about to say anything else, I cut her off and say: I hate noise, I also hate people talking in my head, so if you don't want to get in trouble, it's better to keep quiet, preferably only speak to me about extremely urgent matters.

She stares at me with an analytical look.

Ayla: My God, what a strange guy, how come he doesn't like to talk, I know I got nervous and ended up overstepping the mark, but it wasn't that bad, phew, it will do me a favour not to talk to this dragon's cave creature, I think, and soon reply.

Well, all right, if you don't want to talk to me, if you need anything I'm here.

El Cortez: She answers me in a cheeky way and turns around to continue doing whatever, I take one last look and leave, seriously Deborah must be trying to test my limits.

Ayla: Seriously, it even looks like I'm going to want to stay talking to a shadowy being like that, I'd much rather talk to my little saint, phew. I end up thinking out loud.

El Cortez: As soon as I leave I still hear the strange being grumbling and to top it off she calls me a shadowy being, seriously this alien is not afraid to die, and she still says she prefers to talk to the so-called little saint, seriously a strange being with imaginary friends I can't stand, I'll deal with this later I have more important things to do, so I go to the mafia headquarters.
