Chapter 7 - Colonel Carillo

It was the next morning. You woke up in your bed when your alarm rang at 6:30 in the morning.

"God" you groaned when you saw what time it was and you turned back around.  You loved your work, but what you didn't like was having to get up super early in the morning.

You slowly got out of your bed and decided that the only way that you could get your day started was with a nice hot cup of coffee. While your coffee was brewing, you got ready and dressed.

As you drank your coffee, you decided that it might be nice to watch some TV to wake up a bit before going over to Steve's to let him give you a ride to the embassy.

You grabbed the remote and turned on the TV not really caring which channel was on since you didn't know any of the channels anyway.

"Ahora, vamos a hablar sobre Pablo Escobar." the voice on the TV said which quickly caught your attention. Normally, people would tell you not to bring your work home and to leave your work at work, but how did anybody expect you to do so? You were working for the Drug Enforcement Administration. Most of the work you never really leaves your mind. Especially when it's Pablo Escobar.

"El narcotraficante Pablo Escoabr ha negociado su estancia en su propio cárcel que la gente llama 'La Catedral'. Escobar empezó su estancia en la semana pasada." the voice continued.

You sighed. You knew that this was what you came here for, but it was still unbelievably frustrating. How was is it possible for Escobar to negotiate his own prison stay under his own terms? Who would let that happen? You decided to save these thoughts for later at the office when you were going to discuss different plans with Javier and Steve on what to do next.

You continued watching some more TV until you decided that it would be time for you to go over to Steve's apartment.

You grabbed your bag, left your apartment and then locked the door behind you. Luckily, Steve's apartment was only a few apartments next to yours, so in case of an emergency, you'd only have to go down the hall.

You knocked on his door and Connie with Olivia in her arm quickly opened it. Yesterday at dinner, Steve had told you that he and Connie were fostering a child which you thought was just the cutest and nicest thing you could imagine. "Hey (Y/N), so there's a slight change of plans" she informed you. "We were wondering if it would be okay if Javi drove you so that Steve and I could take Olivia to go shopping before work?" "Of course, did you talk to Javier about it?" "Yes, just go and knock on his door. He should be ready right about now."

And so, you did. You went and knocked on his door which he quickly opened. He greeted you and the two of you walked to his car. Honestly, you had to admit that Javier looked a little rough, as though he hadn't slept at all last night. "Are you ok?" you asked him with a look of concern on your face. You might have only known him for a couple of days, but you knew that he was Steve's best friend, so you figured that it was alright to worry about him.

"I am, don't worry. I shouldn't let this thing with Escobar get so close to me, really. It's just really hard not to let it," he answered. "I understand. If you want you can take a rain check if you're not feeling up to it," you told him referring to your date, well you didn't really know what to call it, let's just say get-together, this afternoon. "No, that's definitely still on," he told you and smiled at you nicely before focusing back on the road.

Once the two of you arrived at your shared office at the embassy, you decided to just do some regular paperwork until Steve arrived.

Steve arrived around 9 AM which wasn't too bad.

You, Steve and Javier, met up with Colonel Carillo. Carillo's Search Bloc had just been disbanded which was why he was currently packing up his things.
