The whereabouts of Mayo were still a mystery to Hannah Riola and she was beginning to worry about it. At this point, all Issa could do was hug her and comfort her, tell her that her best friend was okay and would soon come back to school and explain the situation. Adrian, on the other, hand kept himself distracted with basketball but not once did the Latin boy leave his mind. He also failed to notice that he had a admirer by the name of Brandon Cully, a junior who always came around to watch the freshmen training. Since Adrian conducted those, Brandon was always around to watch him discretely. It's currently lunch hour and the gang is abreast at there table chatting away. Karla has also joined them this school year since she's become friends with them now. Issa and Hannah Riola are in their own world but that's normal. Nothing new there, it's even miraculous they are at the table and not the art room. Kimmy is also there and she's convinced that something serendipitous will happen this school year according to her cards. She's a card reader and has been offering to read people all day. Carl is not at the table, he said something about visiting the principal's office during lunch hour to talk about his school work and his grades. He fears he might not graduate with his friends. Adrian is also present at the table but his mind gears are working hard to remind him of the disaster that's about to happen once Mayo returns to school. He doesn't even know when that is, and he's excited yet extremely scared for when the other boy comes back to school. He's hoping that Mayo accepts him though.

On the other side of the world Mayo is freaking out because he has been attending his father's business functions and hasn't been able to get time to call his friends. His father has arranged a date with a stranger, well not really, he's met Chacha before but that doesn't mean he wanted to date the guy. Don't get him wrong, Chacha was a very good looking young man and he was respectful and just overall an amazing guy.
"papá ¿por qué haces esto?" ( "Papa why are you doing this?) Mayo asked trying to understand his father's deeds. It was just the two of them and they're close because of that. His mother died during Mayo's birth and with that, he was an only child therefore his father was super protective even though Mayo was now eighteen, an adult.
" Hijo, ahora tienes dieciocho años y, a pesar de tu sexualidad, mereces ser feliz y Chacha puede hacerlo por ti. María y Esteban lo han educado bien. Él puede hacerte feliz." His father tried to explain to his only son and it was understandable that he only wanted the best for Mayo. He was a very loving parent. ("Son you're eighteen years old now and despite your sexuality you deserve to be happy and Chacha can do that for you. Maria and Esteban have brought him up well. He can make you happy.")
"Papá, papá, puedo enamorarme, es el sexo lo que no me interesa. Escucha, quiero enamorarme solo, quiero encontrar a esa persona especial por mi cuenta. Gracias por querer la mejor vida para mí, pero tengo que tomar el camino del amor solo. " Mayo said hugging his father and feeling all kinds of emotions because he loved his father and wanted to please him always, but this he could not do, he deserved to love on his own... But he understood his father and his good intentions. ("Dad, dad, I can fall in love, it's the sex I'm not interested in. Listen, I want to fall in love alone, I want to find that special person on my own. Thank you for wanting the best life for me but, I have to take the path of love alone.")
"Sí, está bien, lamento haber interferido. Bueno, sigo pensando que deberías conocer a Chacha y explicarle tu situación. Quizá busque amistad con él. Un amigo aquí en Inglaterra, ¿sí?" Mayo's father said reassuring him that everything was going to be alright. ( " Yes, okay, I'm sorry I interfered. Well I still think you should meet Chacha and explain your situation. Maybe seek friendship with him. A friend here in England, yes?)

After the talk, Mayo went to prepare himself for the date that was not a date. He knew it was the right thing to do and that gave him the opportunity to explain the situation to Chacha, hopefully everything would go accordingly. In an hours' time he was ready to head out. He walked out of his England home and made his way to his date. Chacha was already waiting for him even though Mayo didn't show up late. He must have been waiting. They talked about the date. Mayo explained himself and why he couldn't date Chacha and the other boy was very understanding.
" I understand, and I'm glad you explained and it's okay I would love to be just friends. You're a very good looking lad, but also not my type. My parents just wanted what's best for me too, just like your father." Chacha explained in a thick British accent. That being said, the boys enjoyed each others company and even exchanged numbers. They took pictures with each other and promised to keep in touch no matter what. Mayo was glad that Chacha accepted him and became his friend. And as his only friend here in England, he was ecstatic to introduce him to his friends at home. Maybe they'd all become friends and go to trips together and bond. Mayo was now excited to go back to school and tell his friends about Chacha. He also just missed his best friend and wanted to see Hannah Riola very badly. After all she was his only queen.
