I wake up at 9 am, I don't feel like doing anything, so I take my headphones, turn on the bluetooth and listen to music. I go to the bathroom and brush my teeth, then I go to the kitchen, and I see Miguel passing by the cabinets. When I enter the kitchen, someone turns to me, I see it's Lizzy. Immediately I open a smile on my face and she comes to hug me.
- Oh Lucas, I miss you - she says in the middle of the hug.
- Also, what are you doing here? - I ask, a little confused.
- Lucas, we're at the end of the year, I've already entered "Vacation" - she says making quotation marks with her fingers.
- What do you mean "Vacation"? - I ask again confused.
- It's only until the end of December, then in January I finish my First Act and in February I go back to Brazil to study and come back in November to start Act Two, and then everything is repeated. - She explains
- So will you stay with us for now? - I ask
- Isn't it obvious? Of course I'm staying, but first I need to talk to you - She says
- Yeah, what is it? - I ask
"It's better to be in private," she says, and for a moment I remember that I didn't tell her that I came out to our dad.
- If it's a matter of me being gay. Everyone already knows - I say, and she looks at me with a suspicious face.
- Wow, cool. But this is really private, and Miguel will also have to come. - She says, and my dad looks suspicious.
- Is something going wrong? - My father asks
- Maybe yes, Maybe not - Lizzy says in sarcasm. - Lucas will get dressed, like quickly, we have to leave.
- But... - I was about to say but I'm interrupted.
- No "But" - She says, with a thicker tone of voice
"Okay" I say and go take my shower.
I finish my shower and go get dressed, I put on black jeans and a red polo shirt, with a white plaid shirt on top.
- I'm ready, shall we? - I ask as soon as I leave the room.
I see Miguel sitting in an armchair playing with his cell phone and Lizzy and my father watching.
- Let's go - Lizzy says and we go down to the garage, to get the bikes one each.
••••
We've been pedaling for a long time and I still don't know where we're going.
- Lizzy, wait a minute - I say stopping the bike - where are we going? - I ask
- Lucas, I saw the leaked messages and I, more than ever, want to know who leaked this.. I want to know who the son of a bitch ended my brother's life. - She Says and gets on the bike- Come on, it's not too far
I get on the bike and look at Miguel.
- Wow - He says and gets on the bike and follows Lizzy.
After another 5 minutes riding the bike, we arrived at a house with a white gate. Lizzy knocks on the gate and in less than 1 minute someone appears.
- Hi guys - Mariana says leaving the house.
- Hi Mariana - Lizzy and Miguel say at the same time
- Hi Mariana - I say getting off the bike.
- Hi Lucas... look, I've never been very fond of you, but now you can count on me, that's why I'm going to help you today - She says
- Help me ? - I ask
