Today is a long-awaited day for me and my friends. Today the manga hall is celebrated in Murcia and I really want to go now. I've been saving all year and intend to spend every penny.


I take my backpack, the camera with all its respective objectives and the tripod. My mobile, two portable chargers and my gay pride flag that I have from the previous manga room. With everything ready, I go to the bus stop, because Giselle, her mother and Aroa are waiting for me there.


Once in Murcia we met up with everyone else. There is an almost eternal queue to enter, so I will take the opportunity to upload a couple of stories on my social networks and then I will take out the camera to capture each of the cosplays that can be seen throughout the venue.


Half past afternoon, with four volumes of a manga that I wanted to start reading, since it tells the story of orphaned children where they try to escape when they find out a dark secret. I have bought several posters, an animated figure, various badges that I give to people and a few t-shirts. In short, my backpack is going to explode at any moment.


As we have seen the entire manga room two or three times, we have decided to travel a few kilometers to a shopping center. Have a snack-dinner at a hamburger restaurant and visit shops.


- Aroa - shouted in the middle of the toy store.


- Tell me - approaches me.


- I want this drone for Christmas - I say with a spoiled face.


She nods and we both laugh. We get together with the whole group and we keep looking at things, between jokes, pranks and nonsense.


- What does that girl sound like? – asks Giselle, who isn't usually with us much.


- Ah, that's Talía, Cristina's sister – answers Álvaro giving me a nudge.


I approach her and greet her with two kisses. Then she gives me a hug and greets my friends who have been left behind.


- How is everything? - I ask happily - And that you go alone?


- Brilliant! I had been in the manga room all morning with some of my friends and my sister. Since we were bored and hungry, we walked here.


Well, I think this deserves an explanation, since I haven't told how we talk to each other and get along.


After that party where Cristina showed up at my house, I spent days and weeks thinking about what to do. I discussed it with my psychologist. We both ended up thinking the same thing and it is that, despite my effort to ignore and avoid Loli and her family, Loli's hatred towards me never stopped, I could not forget Cristina either and no matter what days passed, whether there were problems or not Cristina kept trying to talk to me. Well, after the party he didn't talk to me much anymore. Even so, since we couldn't handle the situation anymore, we decided to make one last attempt. On November 3, I decided to write a letter to Loli and her family asking for an apology and a new opportunity. I explained as much as I could... Of course, not only did I go to give him the letter, but I also tried to apologize in front of everyone, I explained to them how I felt every time I had a confrontation with Loli. Obviously, I never commented on what I felt for Cristina.
