As German was sitting in his kitchen silently he suddenly heard a knock on his door.

He got his energy together and went to open the door to see his friend Diego standing there, with a terrified expression on his face.

"Don't tell me they got him too..." - he thought, feeling extremely furious by now, but he held himself back.

- Hi... - Diego mumbled meanwhile.

- Hey... Want to come in?

- Uhh... Yeah - he nodded so German let him in, even though he was already pretty suspicious that it's a trap.

Diego was his friend after all.

Even if it was a trap he wanted to help him out.

Mostly if they were holding him in their hands.

- How're you doing? - he asked awkwardly.

- Could be better - German replied - How about you?

- Same here - he sighed - Feeling worse than ever.

- And Angie?

- Safe - he replied shortly - So why are you here?

- I... I wanted to see... If...

At this point Diego was cut off by German vomiting in the sink which soon turned into vomiting blood, but Diego couldn't see that.

The same things were happening to him that what happened to Violetta too... Before her death...

He quickly got himself together to turn back to Diego...

- You know what, Diego? Just fuck off - he hissed.

- I'm sorry... For everything that's happening to you... - Diego continued casually, but on a shaky voice while he was writing something down on his phone screen.

When he finished he held it up while he was talking and it said:

They're here.

I'm really sorry.

German didn't say anything.

He just mentally got himself ready for whatever is going to happen.

- Remember Clari? - Diego continued - My wife?

- Yes... - German groaned.

- I want to... Get back to her... In one piece...

- I understand that - German nodded, telling him to not to be afraid of him getting mad.

He understood what he did and why.

He would've done the same if he'd have a family to fight for.

- How about when everything ends... Going out for holidays together? - German continued speaking - Your family... Me... And Angie... Hopefully...

- German...

- Everything will be fine...

No.

Nothing was going to be fine and German knew that too...

Mostly when the same two men came in that he got arrested a few days ago.

- You're coming with us... Cop - said one of them while the other got behind German and within seconds everything went black...
