Chapter XXIII -Recognize**

**...

I saw you from the beginning and I recognized you, this looks like a romantic drama and I smile at how deluded fate is.

While we dance, I interrupt the silence of the fine breaths between both of us; I look at you, to see what your eyes are bringing to each other and I ask.

- Do you happen to have a name? I say sarcastically. And you laugh at that.

-I forgot, I'm Estiven," you say regretfully.

And we remain with a smile that slowly fades, while you look me straight in the eyes, and it's as if you undress my pupils, discovering what I really feel in my soul; apparently that makes me forget the pain.

But I react quickly, separating from you, interrupting the reading of the looks already written.

You look at me astonished, waiting for an answer.

I only react with an apology and leave that place with a crestfallen look.

There it is again, the torment that always defeats me, invades me with guilt.
