Catch me if you can

chapter 73

Jorge

*I sat on the bed and listened to her carefully.*

M: I have been working as an agent for four years now and...I was sent out by my supervisor. I was supposed to get you in our director's office.

J: So you got my attention and thought you'd fool me like that

M: And when you... when you went out with Stephie, I followed you and spent the whole night in your house. I also saw when she said she was a spy. And that "something" I kept staring at on one of our dates was Valeria. She told me she was sent to look after me. I was stupid and didn't check it out.

J: Awesome. What will we do now?

M: What happened? I don't remember all of it.

J: All in all, the agents are coming for us and we don't know what to do. I have never been in such difficult situation.

M: Why don't we run away from here?

J: They're gonna find us anyway. I will not live like this. I want to solve it right here, right now.

M: Oh well...

J: You have an idea, don't you

M: Actually I do. Because... if I take you... as my captive...

J: ... they will let me go. But, I am not gonna go as anyone's captive

M: Would you rather face two dozens of people who hate you, all by yourself then?

J: ... you have to understand, this is very hard for me because, I have never been caught.

M: But isn't a loss of one tiny bit of your dignity better than those people out there?

J: But how-how do you want to take me there in a state you're in now?

M: Believe me, I have felt worse. And it's actually good. At least they will think there has been a fight between us. And that I won over you

J: Very funny. But you gotta promise me to get me out safe. Isn't your boss an asshole who would torture me, right

M: No, he is not. He wants to see you. I don't know why but you will talk to him personally. Now help me get up and let's go.
