Chapter 26

 

How delicious you are...

My delicacy...

My personal ecstasy...

 

“Joshua.”

“Iggi! Is that you?”

“Yes.”

“For heaven's sake, you had me very worried. I called your father, I was almost about to file a missing person report with the police.”

“You know I haven't seen my father in years, Joshua. He's a fucking violent alcoholic who I'm never going to see again.”

"I…I know, I just thought…”

"You had my father try to contact me.”

"I was just worried. Was there reconciliation?”

“Do you think I should make up with the guy who drunkenly slapped me in the face and kicked me out of his house when I was seventeen for catching me on the street with my boyfriend? Joshua, my father called me to see if I was okay and he did his usual thing, ruin me. He asked me for money to pay the rent for the seedy apartment where he lives.”

“My God! And your house?”

“He lost it. Between gambling and alcohol, he lost everything.”

"And you helped him? Do you still not realize what he is? Even if he's your father, I know, but…”

“Precisely because he's my father, I can't leave him out on the street.”

“Do you need money? Maybe, I don't know, to make up for what he asked of you, or at least part of it, if necessary.”

“You don't have any money to lend me, Joshua.”

“I get paid next week, I could help you.”

“Josh…”

"Besides, I don't know, I have that check the guy gave me last night. He's crazy, please don't get me together with that sick man again. I'll invest the money, I'll have my own cafeteria, I'll be an entrepreneur and someone great at what I do, you'll see, Iggi.”

"Do it, but not with that money."

“Why?”

“Because you don't have the money. It's a bad check.”

"That bloody son of a bitch!"

“I asked him to cancel it.”

“WHAT?! WHY! You're kidding?!”

"You can't use the money you tried to sell me with."

"It was a joke, Iggi! How do you think I could sell you? What century are we supposed to be in for two gentlemen to do something like that? Although he is a slimy obnoxious and disgusting millionaire, harasser, did you notice how he looked at you or the things he said about you? I had to put a brake on him, he deserved those punches.”

"You did it because it hurt your pride, not when he tried to pay for me."

‘You would not understand.”

"He also told me he broke your septum and sent you to the hospital."

“IT'S A…! OH! THEN YOU WERE WITH HIM!”

“…” 

“You really disappoint me more and more Iggi. I do not know you.”

“Joshua, I'm calling because I know today is your day off and I'll let you know I'm going to the apartment to get some things.”

"What the hell are you talking about?! What are you talking about?!”

“I'll be gone from the apartment for a few days.”

"What are we playing at, Iggi? Come home, let's pretend that didn't happen. I'm willing not to think about what you did even if it breaks my heart.”

"What I did wasn't right at all, but…it's not something I want to talk to you about either, least of all right now.”

"You're going with him, right? Understand that those unbearable rich get bored of things quickly, they will throw you out from one day to the next without you realizing it, and then you will come begging for a little forgiveness or something so that that broken heart endures a little bit of so much discomfort. And I'll have to be there because I love you, Iggi.

‘ Can I ask you something?”

“Yes! Anything.”

"Don't ever call me 'thing' again."

“I did not do that.”

“You did.”

“Nope! I said that the rich get tired of things quickly, not that you are one.”

“Stop treating me like an idiot.

"Okay, if you're in that role…

"What?"

“Nothing.”

“Fuck it, Joshua. Go to hell.”

“You can send me to hell, but I can't call you stupid, huh?”

“Fuck it, Josh. I just hope you're not home, I have my copy of the key, I don't want to see your face.

"We've never insulted each other before, Iggi, I don't like what's happening, have you stopped loving me overnight?"

"Stop, don't do this.”

“Is it that the money of this Leonardo, your new “ci-i-ou” has changed your thoughts? You have always been interested in business, but it was enough for a rich boy to come along to change you completely, I really don't know you.
