Revenge And Love Against My Mafia Ex-Husband
Chapter 5

I love Colombia, there is no such thing as boredom here, I don't know why people go elsewhere.

-Ximena, I thought you were in this country to be with me.

-Mia, I also thought you left Europe for me,

-Ximena, that was the main reason, then I started to meet beautiful specimens that made me fall in love with the country, for example look, pay attention, here comes our sociology professor, he is the only reason why I came to study here, unfortunately I discovered that he is not my type, it hurts me to admit it, he is more your type, come, let's say hello.

-Hello teacher D.

-What a surprise if it is Mía, with her beautiful friend, who as I remember is called Ximena.

-Surprise is that you left without saying goodbye, you are a very rude teacher," Mia complained, clenching her fist.

-I had to leave, I had a family matter, how did it go, the party was great.

-And how are you doing, Angelo," Mia asked him.

-I am very worried, very worried.

What about that? -asked Ximena anguished.

-Well, all my friends claim to have been Mia's boyfriend, and in my social circle, I'm the only one missing.

-No, that's false, they slander me, or maybe they're right, although I must be the one worried, since you didn't invite me to your boxing match," Mía complained.

-Besides being an eminence in psychology, does he also box? -asked Ximena in amazement.

-Yes, and he is one of the best, besides competing in archery tournaments and those funny guns," commented Mía.

Too bad you're not perfect," said Ximena pouting.

Why do you say that, you don't even know me," Angelo tried to defend himself.

-It's that you dance horribly," Ximena bluntly blurted out her dissatisfaction.

-Yes, and they say that a man who dances badly is bad at it," Mía interjected, laughing.

-It's just that I was a little beaten up from the training," a somewhat true apology.

-You should invite her to dance at my place today, so you can take away that bad impression," proposed Mía.

-I would love for you to give me the opportunity to vindicate myself, what's more, let's get something to eat and when we finish we'll go to Mia's disco.

-I'm sorry, but I can't go to lunch with a professor, people might say that I'm a freeloader who wants to spend the semester horizontally," Ximena said.

-You're right, how about if I go home and change my professor's suit for the prince's and see you at night in that dive.

-Angelo, respect me, it's one thing for you to insult me and another thing to insult my record, I spent fifty times what you earn as a teacher in a year when I put it on," Mia replied furiously. -It's a joke, Mia, don't fill yourself with hate, to apologize I'll take you a friend that you don't know," Angelo proposed.

-All right, and take another one for Ximena," Mia replied, wrinkling her forehead and putting her hands on her hips.

-Of course, I'll take her to a friend of mine, whom I know very well, his name begins with A and ends in ngelo," the professor suggested with a laugh.

-Well, you must buy me a very expensive bottle for me to excuse you and another one for going out with Ximena," Mía recommended.

-I'll buy the whole place for her if I have to," Angelo replied.

-Wait, I am not a merchandise, you can't negotiate with me and even less for a few bottles of drinks," Ximena interjected.

-So, if there is a way to barter for your love, what would it be," asked professor D.

-Of course there is, everything has a price and my love is worth that, love, hugs and affection," smiled Ximena.

I have a lot of that, I will bring you a costalada of love, a bundle of hugs, and lots of affection of different carats," she said, moving her hands as if she were dancing.

You're already warming up, I hope today you'll hit the rhythm, he seems to have more hearing in one eye than you do," Ximena teased him.

-Well, I'll see you tonight, you'll see how many pairs are three flies," said Angelo, poking him in the eye.

...

Angelo arrived late, he desperately entered Mía's store, the colored lights were mixed in that place, he ran anxiously with the haste to avoid another bad impression, he bumped into the owner:

Why are you coming so far, can't you do anything right, -Mia demanded-, she is over there, -she pointed to the side.

When he saw her, he felt that the floor collapsed and he floated out, he could see how everything around her was erased and rays of light came out, he felt as if he was being thrown down a slide, he felt the famous butterflies in his stomach, something he thought was a myth, he was unable to move, she was the one who approached him.

-Hello, how nice that you came.

-I'm purple, but I made it, Angelo tried to fix things with a joke.

-I hope he didn't forget the dancing software.

-I think I did bring it, what I don't know is if you say haya or halla, I think it depends on the country.

-I guess it does, here in Colombia there are some words that are taken as rude like the "c" word for butt or venereal disease, although they also use it as an augmentative or crutch.

-Well, if you are a box of surprises, besides being a pretty psychology student, you are also a linguist, that leaves my tongue craving," the professor began to insinuate.

-Wait, I don't usually give them on the first date, and I don't give them on the second either.

-I don't give it on the first date either," said Angelo pausing and continued, "Of course, the good thing about our story is that technically this would be our third date.

-I don't think so, what we talked about in college doesn't count, that was a meeting to make this invitation concrete, doctor D.

-I agree, that doesn't count, I'm referring to the first time we met, is it impossible that you don't remember, you're being forgetful.

-Angelo, I don't understand you and you're scaring me a little," Ximena said wrinkling her forehead and he approached her ear and asked her:

Why have you been lying to me all this time?
