Eduardo drove me back to the hotel, the way back is quite shorter, so it took only 30 minutes, “I’ll leave you to pack your bags and get dressed, I’ll send you a limo to come pick you up at 8, you’re my date for the night, so don’t you ditch me,” of course I turned red, and before anything more embarrassing happens, I just got out of the car and ran up to my room, it was 3 o’clock. By the time I was done packing it was 5:30, 2 and a half hours till the limo comes, I should probably take a shower now, just to make sure I’m not late, the phone rang and it was Eduardo, “Hey Eduardo, is there something wrong?” “No, I just wanted to make sure that you’re okay with the limo picking you up, you don’t want me to come do you?” “No Eduardo, that’s fine, thank you” “No worries, don’t be late, see you in a bit.” He hung up, and I immediately got in the shower.

An hour later, I was done showering and was deciding what to wear for the dinner party, definitely formal, I thought… So finally, I decided what to wear, a purple dress, my favorite color, it had drapes on the left side, and the right shoulder had a golden strap rather than purple, and upon that all the accessories were golden as well, golden heel, golden clutch, and a purple and golden earring, I straightened my hair and braided it to the left, put on Yves Saint Lauran’s perfume ‘Cinema’, although it’s old, its smell is definitely the most suitable for the party. I applied, again, simple make up. I finished at exactly 8:00 and went down to the lobby, found the limo driver waiting for me and I was off to the party.

As soon as I got there, Eduardo was waiting for me at the door, he looked amazing, he was wearing a beautiful black tuxedo, with an amazing golden tie, and he just looked smashing. “You get more beautiful every time I see you,” and again he flashed his half smile that looked more beautiful than ever. We went inside, and his mother comes and hugs me really tightly, “You got your bags right, sweetie?” “Yes, Mrs. Alberto, I did” “Please, Julia, call me Cecilia, please” before I could reply, Eduardo comes, “Julia, these are my siblings, Javier and Andréa,” I shook hands with Javier, “Welcome to our house, Julia, it’s very nice meeting you,” “The pleasure is all mi-” Andréa hugged me so tight, I was almost out of breath, “I’m so glad you’re staying here, I’m sick of having boys all around me, plus, I don’t get along with my cousins… you’ll understand why” She already made me feel like I’m part of the family, they’re all very welcoming, I love being a part of that. “Julia, my dad’s up stairs, we should go talk to him now, before he gets caught up in the party,” After walking up 2 floors, we reached his office, but we over heard him talking to some people, the talk seemed very dangerous though… “The people at your airport are in danger if you don’t agree to do this Carlos,” “I will not allow any weapons trespassing in my airport Dimitri,” “and who said anything about a trespass? We’ll make the weapons in the airport, we’ll use one of the planes you own, you’ll say it is being renewed or renovated or anything like that, no one will suspect a thing, we also kidnapped Andrew Jobs and his family from the airport, and they’ll all die if he doesn’t agree to this,” I was worried, “Eduardo! That’s my dad he’s talking about,” “What does your dad do? Why would they kidnap him?” I felt his curiosity, “He’s a nuclear engineer” although I felt like we were whispering, the man seemed to have heard us, “There’s someone outside…” was the last thing I heard... In seconds Eduardo’s hand was covering my mouth and I suddenly felt a fire burning inside my chest, few seconds after, I blacked out.
