*It's been an hour and Nico is still here with us. Jorge has been trying to send him away but he didn't move.*

J: You know what Nico? Could you bring us some drinks?

N: I was talking to Tini!

J: But-

N: You can go there

J: Ugh.

*Jorge rolled his eyes and stood up, leaving to the kitchen. We were alone. In silence all of a sudden. I swear he talked without a break a few seconds ago.*

N: ...love. what a beautiful feeling.

M: Yes, when you love and are being loved, there is no better thing

*I said one of the cliché sentences I read in books*

N: But you are never sure if the person you love lasts. Or is true.

M: You're talking from your experience?

N: No. But I know someone who might be like this.

M: I don't understand

N: I want to say that we must be careful with who we are having in our lives.

M: Are you- are you talking about Jorge?

N: ... he has secrets.

M: And I have mine.

N: I don't want to hurt you, that's why I'm telling you to find out

*I know exactly what he means. Is this a plan? Do they know about me?*

N: He is dangerous-

J: Who is dangerous?

N: Haven't you seen the news? That robber from the bank on the fourth street

J: Oh.

N: Well, I gotta go. See you later

J: Bye

M: Bye

*He stood up and left. We remained silent until we heard the door close.*

J: Finally!

M: You know why he stayed?

J: No, he drove me crazy! But now we're completely alone

*He grinned and sat next to me. I felt uncomfortable for the rest of the visit. Do they know who I am and play a game with me? Or is Nico simply overreacting?*
