—I don't like crowds...

"Near me," he finishes. You don't like that I have a lot of people around me because you don't know what intentions they may have with me, right?

—Exactly, I wouldn't have to lie about that, I accept it.

He gives a light laugh and tells us that the ponds for the public to pay and swim with the animals inside are ready for us. Well, just for her because I'm not crazy about swimming with those wild beasts with teeth that can rip off your leg in nanoseconds.

—You also said that the...Hamilton were here?

—Yes, here they have the New York Camorra and there is another one that is the Las Vegas Camorra.

—Too many families, too many mafias.

"But all with an interesting story to tell," he nods and then goes down the elevator. Domenico didn't stay with the girl, he told me that this was his last date because the girl told him he was gay just for wanting a man to touch him while he was with a woman. Gay, that hurt him.

He looks at me for a few moments, my brother since he was little was made to feel like a phenomenon or a mistake in the lives of the Marinos, but now I realize that people want to emphasize it to him. As Emily said, it is possible that she leans towards bisexuality because of that desire for both sexes, however, the people of 2012 are not prepared to let people be free with their tastes.

"That sucks, but I think it's better because Domenico was spared a person like that," she mutters, annoyed. I can't believe the girl says that, she must have said very bad things to him.

—Yes, Dom says that the girl only wanted money and that was why she wanted to sleep with him, until he told her about his preferences and what he liked to enjoy in sex and she called him a gay, faggot who should die because That was a disease. —Without realizing it, I'm speaking full of annoyance that Emily is worried about because of the stern face she gives me. I'm sorry, it's time to have fun and I'm here to tell you that.

"You said I would always be the first person you told everything to and I like that." He kisses my cheek. They take us both down another hallway to take us to the animals she so wants to swim with. I will talk to Dom, he will feel alone, he will not know how to continue and he will think that he has to get stuck in those ideas that the girl told him. It's not good, that woman really has a problem.

—Like homophobia? Something like that?

—Yes, in fact the LGBT community formally began in New York, it is incredible because everything was since the Stonewall conflict where people faced the hostile system of the country —she sighs, proud of her vast knowledge—. But it is still something highly criticized in these years and not many people dare to study themselves to define their tastes. There can be many colors for different tastes, don't you think?

—I'm going to kill that woman if she's really hurt her emotionally, love.

—I will support you, we are going to kill her.

—You have become so bloodthirsty, principessa.

"It's not true," he snorts, "I only protect my people and Domi has no problems, he has tastes as peculiar as the two of us."

—That's true, but people these days are not prepared to understand it because our tastes are not diseases or problems in the head —I point out—, they are fetishes, things that we all have.

—And that's bullshit, making it look so taboo just out of modesty and shame.

—What else can I tell you, love.

We both arrive with the pond managers, Emily prepares to receive the diving suit along with the mask that is required when practicing these things. When he looks at me, his bottom lip juts out into a childish pout.

—No, I won't go, I'll take photos of you.

—Come on, we have to have fun!

"I don't want my hair to get wet," I lie.

-I don't believe you.

I see how, shivering from the cold, he puts on his suit and puts on the mask after holding his hair very well. When he gets closer I see the huge goggles on his forehead, he kisses my mouth, but takes my fingers to insist.

—Tell me the truth, we have done such extreme things and I went skydiving because you really liked the idea, I told you I wasn't afraid of it, but... We tried it, together.

It was true that she overcame the issue of the plane accident quite well, she faced several obstacles that I thought would be a possible trigger for terror and anxiety attacks, however, none of that happened because she did not want to have a problem with everything. that had survived.

She was a warrior.
