Miguel

As I listened to the radio talking about the news of the day, I was laughing to myself at the absurd news that had happened, I had to laugh not to cry. I was distracted listening to the radio when my cell phone rings and I answer it and leave it on the speaker and the voice of my best friend and partner says:

"Speak up, dog!" - I hear Henrique's voice screaming and mentally roll my eyes since I was driving.

- Hi henrique! - The greeting.

"My God, what voice is that?" - He plays.

— Of tiredness, what do you think? – I reply with irony.

"You're not sleeping, are you?" - He jokes again.

“You know I don't get enough sleep since my partner decided to take an urgent case.

“You know very well that we're the best in our business, and I was hired to do the governor's security.

- I know that! It's just that there are times when I don't think we should do private security.

“My friend, that's what I was thinking about talking to you about, after I'm done with this attempt on the governor, I'm seriously thinking about getting behind the tables and letting the younger ones do it.

“I think about that too! I was going to call you when I got home. — Notice to him.

— Miguel, our company is doing very well, our customers are happy, we have really good employees and we are always giving courses to update themselves.

— What do you think we need to hire more employees? - I ask turning on a slightly busy avenue and press the button to lock the windows so I don't run the risk of being robbed.

"That would be a good idea, wouldn't it?" I ask him for his opinion.

— I think so, we are calmer, after all it's not every day that Henrique Fagundes says he's getting old. — I provoke him.

— Go fuck yourself! He says and I laugh.

— Friend, I really wanted to! - I declare laughing, I haven't had sex in a while.

- I believe whoever hears you say that, thinks you haven't had sex for a long time. - He plays.

— And the worst thing he ever does, I'm tired of offered women that you set up for a date and the first thing they do is spread their legs and say o'clock let's go to my apartment. - I growled frustrated. It's not that I didn't like to fuck on the first date, it wasn't that, it's just that to take a woman to bed I like to get to know them a little and that never worked out.

- My God, man are you trying to tell me that you want to date seriously? – Henry asks shocked.

"Then this is what I want!" — I talk to him and I wait for him to laugh or make some joke and nothing and I call him: — Henrique?

- Hi? - He answers.

"I thought the call was down?" — I comment.

"It didn't fall, I was just thinking about what you told me!" he says thoughtfully.

— Is what is your opinion? I ask curiously.

'I think you're right!' I'm also wanting to be quiet. “And I'm shocked by what I hear.

- Serious? I ask surprised to hear that.

— Yes very seriously, you are right we need a good woman in our life. — He declares and I agree with him it was a pity I didn't meet any.

— Wow, hearing this from you… — I start when I hear a noise from a Whatssap message that had arrived and I take the opportunity to stop at a red light and slide just to see who messaged me.

— Miguel… Damn… — Henrique calls me and I smile when I see that it was my cousin Andressa.

- Hi? “I'll answer and decide later when I get home that I'll check your message.

— What the fuck, bro, you don't answer me what you're doing? he asks thickly.

— Henrique, sorry, I stopped at the light and saw that a message arrived for me, on whatssap. “I apologize to him.

"Oh yeah and are you going to tell me it was an ex or rather some woman in the area?" He asks curiously.

— Neither one nor the other, the message is from my cousin. I answer and hear his hiss and I get pissed. “She's not for you.

- I said nothing! Henry defends himself.

— You don't fool me, you want to look for a woman go ahead who is not my cousin. I declare and the motherfucker laughs in my face.

"Oh stop it, she's your cousin and you know I'm into her!" — He declares and yes I knew he was into her, only I didn't want him near her anyway, she's like she's my sister.

'I don't want to hear it!' — I declare sincerely I didn't really want to hear the talk about my cousin.

- Okay, jealous cousin now tell me do you know if she's dating? he asks and I get pissed at him again.

"Holy shit, what's the part I told you to stay away from her?" - I ask him who laughs saying:

“I've always been tied to your cousin, too bad she doesn't like me very much. He declares with regret and I feel a little sorry for him, ok just a little sorry he didn't need to know that.

'She thinks you're very rude!' — I declare because that's what she had told me and honestly I don't know what to do with the two of them who couldn't be in the same room without wanting to strangle each other so it was better for them to stay apart.

— Me rude? I am a man of good manners! He declares laughing.

- That should think with your head below and not above! — I do.

"Do you really think that about me?" he asks in a serious tone.

— I don't think about Andressa anymore and I honestly don't know why you two can't be without wanting to kill each other every time you meet. — I declare and I breathe a sigh of relief when I see that I have arrived in front of my apartment and push the button to open the parking gate.

— Listen to what I'm going to tell you, I'm still going to marry your cousin! - He declares and I respond with irony.

"That's if she doesn't kill you first!" — I play with him.

"Then I will die happy, my friend!" “He confesses and I'm shocked.
