FEDRICK: this is what I meant when I said you're wicked, fine, you want to arrest me then do it but know that I won't be the one going to prison.

MANUEL:  so this is how you jump to conclusion, without getting the whole fact, you just think and decide that's the truth, you are more childish then I thought.

FEDRICK: you know what I'm out of here, you can handle the police yourself since you are the one that called them[ he was about to walk away when Manuel hold his hand and drag him close to himself, they stare at each other for a while] would you mind letting go?

MANUEL: I won't let go, so zip it and follow me, the police are here for you but not for whatever absurd thing you are thinking.[ he drag him along as they walk out of the room]

FEDRICK: what?  of course not, why the hell would I cry? I have no reason to cry okay and I'm not a baby who cries because of any little thing. I washed my face that's all.

MANUEL:  your face is swollen because you washed it? 

 FEDRICK: yes. [ Manuel look's at him for a while]

MANUEL: what are you doing?

FEDRICK: what? [ Manuel walks up to him, he touch Fedrick face and lift it up so they could look at each other eyes. Manuel notice the blush on his face, the sight alone brought warmth into his heart, they stare at each other]
