Love and Deceit

Immediately the call dropped, I decided to stay longer on the sofa before heading back to the bedroom.

Now that I ponder on it, Antonio must have had a hell of an experience at the Infuriata restaurant, and to think that I should have been working there with him as well.

Thinking back on the day of our interview, a.k.a. the day that we accidentally walked into the murder scene of the Gustavo Rodríguez, Sebastian from what I remember was never particularly the kind of man to pretend.

Still, I never imagined that he'd be so animalistic. I knew it would be only a matter of time until Antonio snapped. He inherited his rash behaviour from his Pa. So far, I'm the only one who can tame that side of him. So I guess not communicating with him for the past couple of days, made it easy for him to give in to his rage.
