ENZO EFSERYAN(FREDDIE MERCURY) IS A PROMISING MOVIE ACTOR WHO IS AT A CROSSROADS IN LIFE WITH HIS GIRLFRIEND PAULINE AMOS (MARY AUSTIN). APPARENTLY THE END OF IT ALL, IT WILL BE JUST THE BEGINNING OF A NEW LIFE FOR THE ACTOR.
MY PARTICULAR HOMAGE TO...
Enzo didn't travel to Spain in vain. They devoted the weekend to the actor's shopping spree. The last time he was there was with Chris. Tarek was guilty of interrupting his shopping when he had his disc displacement working in the pond.
He had fallen in love with a picture and aimed to make a far from negligible offer to the owner. But tracking his location was hard. He took a fancy to another picture even more impressive in an antique shop he attended to buy floor tile. The picture of that man staring at him seemed to jump out of the picture frame, so realistic looked. Enzo watched it on and on, so silently. Not only he was steeping himself in each one of its subtleties but also he thought about the best place in his home to place it. At last he turned to the antique dealer who walked around respectfully in case she was required.
- Could it be one Greco? -Enzo asked cautious, afraid she regarded him the typical whimsical millionaire with no idea of art.
- It is -the lady smiled cunningly.
- I knew it -Enzo cried out clenching his fist and turning to Tarek who watched everything with the most reverence-. I guess it is for sale. I want it.
- Mr. Efseryan, the picture is worth 980.000 pounds.
Enzo scouted every corner of the picture as though that figure didn't mean a thing. His face didn't even change.
- I must tell you it's not for sale. It's classified by the spanish government as national prominence picture and cannot get out of the country. I'm sorry.
- Oh -he just mumbled staring back at it-. I might buy me a house in Spain just to being able to watch it whenever I like. Would you like to live here? -he turned to Tarek with half smile.

Tarek shrugged not sure what to reply. Whenever the art was involved, Enzo didn't use to joke about and when he got excited about something he could do anything. He was imagining himself learning spanish language.
Enzo returned a bit disappointed not having been able to buy that Greco despite sweeping the board; chandeliers, figures and some great picture. As soon as he met Pauline the first thing he talked about was that Greco. She wasn't in the mood for Grecos.
-My love, are you ok? -was the first thing she asked.
- Of course, do I look awful? What's wrong?
- Usually Spain suit you fine but I don't know how you got so crazy. What happened with Ismael Sañudo's project?
- Ohhh, that -he made a disdainful gesture with his hand-. It wasn't mean to be.
- He had bombarded me with phone calls since yesterday. He says you've made an agreement and you fucked him off. Just literally.
- It was exactly like this. I wasn't mean to do it. Don't spin our heads more.
- Tell me what happened right now.
- Ok. He tried to shag my husband. That's it.
- Enzo... come on... I need Tarek's version, sure.
