2AM:
'Spent more money today?' Cairo looks at me.

'Oops.' I chuckle.

'We're gonna go bankrupt.' Cairo jokes.

'Don't act like you don't spend money too.' I laugh.

'I'm not saying I don't, but I don't go shopping once a week, like you and Eve do. I go once every two months. Sometimes one.' Cairo looks at me.

'And you spend millions. Because you have a whole shopping spree.' I laugh.

'That is true. But still, you spend more than me. Yearly.' Cairo laughs.

'We spend the same. If you think about it.' I laugh.

'Yeah yeah whatever you say.' Cairo laughs.

'Listen, don't hate me for it. I have all the money and all the resources to maintain my life.' I laugh. 'And so do you.' I nudge him.

'Mhm.' Cairo looks at me and smirks.

I chuckle.

After a couple moments of silence, Cairo looks at me.

'Thank you, Patricia.' he smiles.

'For what? For being rich?' I joke.

Cairo laughs.

'No. Just... for everything. For everything you are.' Cairo smiles.

'What?' I laugh.

'Yeah. Just for being here.' Cairo smiles.

'It's okay. Always.' I chuckle.

'And thank you for... for helping me get better when I needed to. And for giving me the time I needed.' he smiles.

'You knew I wasn't going to let you go that easily. I love you, bro. I've told you this before.' I look into his eyes.

'I know. I love you too.' he chuckles and pulls me into a hug.

'Thank you so much.' Cairo kisses my forehead.

'Of course.' I smile and peck him.

Cairo chuckles.
