Catch me if you can

chapter 65

Martina

M: Come on Tini, you can do this. Valeria has been doing this without you knowing so there is nothing you can't do. She is not a distraction.

*I kept repeating to myself while getting ready to work. If I'm gonna pretend she is not here, it will be fine, right? I said to myself and left the house. I sat in my car and started driving. Great. It's fine. I have been stalked by many many agents before... but... I could knock them out whenever I wanted. I can't do that with her. Ugh. As soon as I thought of that, I saw a bus in my back mirror. I am sure she's in it. When I arrived at the café and came in, I could feel her presence. She was in the shop, at some table. I could feel which coffee was meant for her, which cheesecake she has chosen. And it made me more and more nervous. Jorge hasn't come to the café since he found out about Stephie so that is making me a bit calmer. Valeria won't see me and him here. Oh... I totally forgot about Stephie. What will I do with her?*

Me: Martina, hey!

M: What?

Me: It's been three minutes and you haven't stopped staring at Stephie out there.

M: Uh... sorry. I was distracted.

Me: Anyway, can you take this order out please?

*She said while handing me a plate with a cheesecake.*

M: Uh... Pepe isn't... here?

Me: He has other things to do now. Go go!

M: ...alright then

*I took the order out and headed to the table.*

M: Could you observe from a bigger distance please?

V: No because watching you is so much fun. You really looked like an idiot yesterday. And even made him angry, bravo!

M: You don't know how Jorge is so don't judge me

V: Oh yeah, sure I know. If I were in your place, that job would have been done already.

M: Stick to your stuff and I will to mine, great? Great.

V: Uhm, have fun defeating two agents.

*Two... she knows. She knows about Stephie.*
