I woke extremely mad to hear my annoying alarm clock  ringing! When I'm on vacation I'll take the batteries off and I don't want to see that thing for weeks.

I took a foot of the blanket and took the other with a lot of effort and with partially closed eyes I got up and went towards the bathroom. I love to know by heart my way trough my house.

Slowly and with great patience I showered and dressed up with my work uniform. It is another day of work, I wish that will end quickly.

Although I don't like anything, I had to put on makeup because I am at the reception and the image is an important factor. We must not forget that it is the first approximations that the customer has with the company.

I have to remember to thank Kat for bringing me home after I've fallen asleep in the car. Who has a best friend has everything!!

When passing through the hallway of my house I noticed with an immense nostalgia some frames that contained more pictures of me than any other Member of our family. Several happy times of my childhood. The one that I loved the most it's without doubt one where I was around two years old and I was in the living room of our House, lying on top of my parents' back while they were showing the most embarrassing photos that I had to my aunts. It was payback, a sweet and fun revenge.

I entered the kitchen hoping that no one was there, but for my tough luck I saw my father having breakfast with the newspaper in front of him. Watching him you would expect a man super picky and with no space for games but I think that is more the role of my mother. My father is without a doubt a love, gentle man with a huge ability to forgive ... one day I hope to find someone with a personality as beautiful as him.

"Buenos días alegría"

The gaze of my father turned from the newspaper into my face and he smiled so brightly when he saw me that someone else would think he hasn't see me for a couple of days.

"Good morning my love, so how was dinner with your friends?"

I snorted, thinking of the term associated with friends. The only person there who was a friend was Kat.

"It went well, all normal ... another dinner between friends," I don't know if my dad was able to feel the sarcasm but without doubt he was there present. "Okay Daddy, I'm going to work because unfortunately the clients doesn't do the things by themselves and I still have the morning filled with spring cleaning." said getting a Green Apple from the  fruit basket.

My father started laughing knowing perfectly how I hated having to do spring cleaning.

"Good luck, I hope you have lots of cabinets to clean," he said smirking.

"Te calla Papa" and I left laughing.

20 beds, 5 cabinets and 3 Office rooms after and I'm ready to go lunch, after 1 hour and a half from what it was supposed. Damn Jade and her boring speeches "we have to give our best to our clients and if that means making sacrifices we will make them. Understood? "

Sacrifices my ass! Our dear leader was already having lunch at noon while other people like me were starting to eat at two in the afternoon. Without the patience to endure the gossip and the loud conversations of my colleagues, I got my food and went toward the roof of the Hotel that was divided into two parts: one part for the staff and the other for customers.

When I opened the door a warm wind came toward my face. I went towards the lounge chairs with a fast-paced and with my stomach growling.

In the background I could hear the voice of Adele with the music Send my love and I smiled immediately.

I beheld the sight in front of me and I realized how lucky I was for to work and see a beautiful city as Cabo San Lucas. I ate my sandwich in a few bites and I lay down a little to enjoy the sun and the rest of half an hour.

This time was already making me relax and expell the stress that I had accumulated on my shoulders.

"It won't be a good view for clients if you get a sunburn". I opened one eye and looked and all I could see was a black suit and. ...

And we can guess the owner of this voice? Without doubt, the dickhead and his sarcasm after lunch.

"Jesus, you can't have a second of quietness in this hotel? Leave me alone Mr. Montenegro, I'm not on duty yet. "I sighed closing again the eye, concentrating again on the inner peace that I was trying to achieve.

"Leonardo, and I didn't came here to talk to you. As you Ms. Martinez, I came here to have a little rest and get away from the stress of the Hotel ".

Please, a nerdy in a suit with stress?! Choosing the color of your tie in the morning must be stressful with no doubt.

Note the sarcasm.

Closer by The Chainsmokers with my favorite singer Halsey began to play and I ignored what Leonardo said and focused in the music and lyrics.

"You look as good as the day I met you

I forget just why I left you, I was insane

Stay, and play that blink-182 song

That we beat to death in Tucson, okay "

I started humming the lyrics of the song, not caring with the intruder that stood by my side.

"Bullshit"

When I say he has a mental retardation I was correct, but nobody ever listens!

"What?"

"No one ever forgets why we left someone, I think we even remember harder each day"

No doubt you're right, and here I have to agree.

I remember like it was yesterday what happened with John and every day the longing increases and questions like "What if?" attack as bombs.

"You're right about it," I sighed, opening my eyes and staring at the sky that it was full with heavy clouds that suddenly appeared and threatening to open at any time.

"Whoever  left you it was an idiot."

"The idiot was me, not him! When we are too happy we should realize that something bad always ends up happening and steal our happiness in the worst way."

I dared to look at the Leonardo and saw that he was already watching me with a huge intensity. And from one moment to the other it started to rain and each second the intensity increased and then we got up quickly but Leonardo grabbed my wrist and I turned me to him. 

He just muttered.

"Dance with me" and this little phrase made me smile.

The first real smile of the day and it was direct to him,

Leonardo.
