Now that I knew his name, I just wanted to find him at the shop to see who he was. I got home, said hello to my mom, and we chatted for a bit. Then my brother and sister-in-law arrived; I greeted them, went to my room to shower, and later came back down to have dinner and talk with them.

That’s when my brother said to me:

—Hey, you need to know there are people you shouldn't associate with, okay?

—Why?I asked.

—There are members of organized gangs around here—you know, gangsters.

—Oh, okay, I get it. I'll be careful.

— don't want to see you getting involved with those people. I have friends who’ve told me about them; their names are Nico, Dan, and Ale. They’re the ones who live in this area.

I was stunned, because I didn't know if it was the same Ale I’d wanted to meet. All I said was, "Okay, got it," then I went to my room, put on some music, and lay down to think about everything he’d told me. And the funny thing is, instead of being scared, I felt even more motivated!

    the fact that you felt more motivated instead of scared - that says something about you.

    why do you feel more motivated when people say don't? is it the person or the risk?

    It was college vacation, I took my things out of the car, it was summer, so hot and hostile. I just wanted to tell you "I love you". But your friends had said you were a jerk. Love is like two birds, I came to love you, but I was an idiot to blindly love you, love was for two. Why did I keep waiting? When I saw someone else with you? It was a feeling of hope, I swore you would come back. I wore fine tailoring to meet you, but you didn't care at all. But your friends had said you were a jer

  • The birds melodies

    I can hear them sing and sing, and I try to figure out what their harmonies mean But in the light of day, it is such a tedious task, I have so many birds to listen to, which shall I pick? One is gray with light blue stripes of a well-lived life, Another one pecks at my cheek Pleading to be heard, But I can’t seem to understand.

  • Your touch is magnetic

    How could I not imagine you pressed against my skin, feeling your heart and your heartbeat. We did this all the time... Because every time you touch me, there's no one around. Impossible not to respond to your danger, you are my predator and I am your prey. Because every time you touch me, my body becomes a zone, you take me to the highest point. You have this magnetic touch, completely magnetic like the energy of the moon. It would be strange to see a jaguar and a deer running through the
