-That! —He points at me tired—. He doesn't follow a damn order, he ran away, we lost the keys and... Salvatore was starving me!

—How did they run away? —He turns to look at me annoyed—. Emily?

—Oh, let them tell you since they wanted to force me, I have to do my planning for joint activities with David —I take my friend's hand—. Come on.

I walk past him without further ado and David does too.

—Emily!

—I have work, Salvatore.

I advance without further ado, taking him to the living room where there is no one, I drop my bag and let myself fall against the couch. When we both see each other we burst out laughing while the others rage outside.

"We really have work," David explains to me, ending the laughter. And you must tell me what's happening with Salvatore.

—It's nothing out of this world, I know they have problems because the brothers wanted Salvatore to fix their psychological problems, while he tried to keep the business going and at the same time considered maintaining the same life for everyone —I confess—. And it couldn't be done, maybe Salvatore has more secrets to tell.

—He's a man, of course he has them.

—Do you think he could become obsessed with me? —He stops his hands after taking out the laptop—. Leone said that it was better for me to escape because the moment Salvatore becomes obsessed with me he will not fulfill what we agreed to and I do not want to be subject to anyone.

"You can't expect a man to hold back after being touched like that," she explains. And if you continue to let that desire between you that already exists become great, the consequences can be serious.

-We kissed.

-Sorry? Why don't I have my details?

I start laughing, covering my mouth out of habit.

"I don't have a phone yet, he hasn't given it to me and he trusts a lot that his brothers will be attentive to me, although at some point I assure you that he will give me that cell phone," I promise. I don't know, when it happened it was all about challenges until... It became a game from which I don't know if I'd rather leave or continue. What he does with me... He's so slow, he's so strange that I don't think he's anything like Fabian and that makes me curious.

—I understand, the strange and new will always catch our attention—he opens the laptop. We cannot judge them now that we are in this, even if you want to see them as the bad guys, they are the ones who are protecting you now from being killed and I think you should make an effort to define what it is that you really want from Salvatore.

"Let him look at me like that night," the words come out of my mouth without permission, he remains silent to continue listening. I rejected myself, hurt myself with words, and disgusted myself for a man. That night I was... hating myself for being so stupid and believing that people can change, and with him things were different. I think I wish he would keep looking at me that way.

-Because? I want exact words.

“David,” I let out a sigh, put my feet up on the couch. That night Fabian had a girl with a big ass, black hair and tits that kept dancing in his face. Me... My body is not like hers and I realized that Fabian always looked for that type of body, I have a great ass.

—Don't lie, you're the loser of the Kardashians—a nasal laugh comes out. I'm really saying it, if you think you must have a super voluptuous body, you're wrong because in real life those bodies are either very difficult to get or they have surgery.

I hug my legs to my chest.

—For him, I was voluptuous from the beginning and you know what I did to Fabian so that he later told me that I was a disgusting fucking whore, that's why he cheated on me all the time—I put my fingers between the strands of my hair—. I don't want to get your approval, what I want is to find myself again and not have the opinions of the fucking world affect me; because it's not just Fabian, sometimes it's the shitty people who criticize me for not being a good-looking Italian.

—You look good, the problem is in your head, beautiful.

—I'm insecure, I know.

—There you have it and from what I know, with Salvatore you unleashed yourself as if you were his tamer, why?

—I don't know, he was imposing and... I didn't want to look small next to him, that's why I provoked him, I did what I wanted and for the first time I behaved like a woman who knows how to play men's games, but not a woman who falls flat on her games.

I am left analyzing my own words until we get to work. The school makes certain visits to places within the area and some others in which we must make a long trip to reach the most beautiful tourist areas of Italy, for that they are divided between groups and as usual; David and I always join our groups.

For this we must decide where to go, at what time and plan the circulars with the protocols that we will send to the director. We spent the whole afternoon on it, Gin intervenes in a few hours of the afternoon telling us that the brothers tried the food that Leone brought and were fascinated.

At some point we show him how we work with these little ones and how soon some new children will enter to be able to learn with us.
