First cup. The wine is delicious, I try to measure myself, but I'm full of anger for what just happened, plus the thing could end up being ruined if Joshua finds out that I was unfaithful.
The truth is that at the time I was convinced that it was not like that because we were supposed to be fighting and I tried to reconsider things by calling him, to which he reacted like a real jerk.
However, the tension drops when I don't even realize that I'm the first to finish that first round of drinks.
"Wow," Leonard muttered. I can almost feel the satisfaction of seeing that I have agreed to something that he recommended to me, thus being a target shot that hit my tastes. He pours me another glass.
"That's fine, thank you."
"Baby, don't be shy. Do you want another, friend?"
"Of course my friend!"
Joshua is infatuated with Leonardo's money and the fact that he is going to pay this bill, so he agrees without any remorse to consume, order and laugh out loud.
You must feel good about the fact that you order and order without thinking about the number that the bill will show at the end.
Yes, it is pleasant, but it is not a concern for me because, as long as I choose places other than these to go out to dinner, my economic situation linked to regular work will allow me to continue doing my things without magnanimous inconvenience.
"Friend, what do you do? Let's talk about you"—proposes the Italian.
"I..." he seems annoyed. "Mine is very calm, you know, investment in... Hours of sleep and that."
"Hours of dreams?"
"The kind of legal drugs you use to keep you awake throughout the routine," he tells him almost under his breath.
"Joshua," I challenge.
He tries to get over his embarrassment and tells him, "I work in a coffee shop."
"He's in charge," I return dignity. "And he has been doing it very well for many years."
"Oh yeah?" Leonardo is suddenly interested. "How long and which cafe is it? If I am going to give you a visit, I hope that the best will attend to me."
Did he just pay Joshua a compliment? He tries to soften and manipulate it for what will come, I'm sure of it.
*at last-. "I don't think I can last much longer there, it's already been seven years..."
"I understand, you want something of your own."
Ahem, that's the sweet spot between the two.
"In fact, because up to a certain age they only renew contracts" he explains with some sorrow.
"Friend," Leonardo tells him. "So many years in a coffee shop being the manager is the absolute guarantee that you can become a coffee entrepreneur. We are young, we have projection for big financiers.
"I don't know if it's financiers, I have several loans in suspense to be able to pay for my car..."
Car that he still hasn't taken out because it doesn't arrive with the necessary amounts, although I'm worried about what Leonardo tells him next:
"Friend, I'll invest in your cafeteria . That check is just the beginning."
OMG!
