The next morning, the house awoke in a familiar routine that masked the underlying cracks. Pedro came down early, black coffee burning in his cup like an anchor to reality. Javier was already in the kitchen, making eggs, his cheerful mood contagious as always.

"*Compadre*, you look like death warmed over. Headache still there?"

Pedro nodded, forcing a smile. "Yeah, but it'll pass. What are we doing today?"

Javier raised an eyebrow. "Barbecue tonight. I bought fresh fish at the market. Diego and

  • My dad's bestfriend   Pushing His Buttons

    Javier walked into the living room, wiping his hands on a dish towel, his face flushed from the barbecue sun. He sat down across from her, a tired smile on his lips, and set a box of board games on the coffee table Monopoly, Scrabble, classics worn by years of use."Hey, *mija*, what do you say to a game night tonight?" he proposed, his Mexican accent rolling the words with familiar warmth. "With Pedro and the boys. It's been a while since we've had a real game like before."Sofia looked up from her phone, forcing a polite smile. "Sounds fun, Dad, but Ellie and I are going out with friends tonight."Javier raised an eyebrow but didn't insist. "Ah, kids and their parties. Okay, never mind. I'll see what Pedro and Diego are up to, then."He stood, heading toward the garage to dig through boxes of forgotten games, leaving Sofia alone for a moment. Ellie was upstairs with Diego she could hear them laughing from above, probably playing video games or sharing surfing stories. Pedro, meanwhi

    The next morning, the house awoke in a familiar routine that masked the underlying cracks. Pedro came down early, black coffee burning in his cup like an anchor to reality. Javier was already in the kitchen, making eggs, his cheerful mood contagious as always."*Compadre*, you look like death warmed over. Headache still there?"Pedro nodded, forcing a smile. "Yeah, but it'll pass. What are we doing today?"Javier raised an eyebrow. "Barbecue tonight. I bought fresh fish at the market. Diego and Ellie went shopping for surfing stuff. Sofia... she's probably still in bed, I bet."Pedro nodded, avoiding thinking about her. The day passed in forced normalcy: a walk on the beach alone to "clear his mind," where the waves spitting foam reminded him of the inner chaos he was trying to calm. He came back in the late afternoon, helping Javier set up the barbecue lighting the charcoal, arranging chairs on the terrace, opening cold beers. The smell of smoke and salt filled the air, a summer scen

  • My dad's bestfriend    Sofia was no longer the kid he'd known

    Dinner had stretched in a tension that Pedro felt like a rope stretched to the breaking point, each of Sofia's glances like a vibration making the air between them tremble. He'd held on, avoiding her insistent eyes, focusing on his plate with an almost ridiculous determination chewing without really tasting, responding to Javier's jokes with forced laughter that rang false even to his own ears. Diego and Ellie, oblivious to the underlying drama, had filled the silence with their surfing stories, their youthful voices contrasting with the weight pressing down on him. When the meal finally ended, Pedro had pleaded a throbbing headache "Too much sun today, *compadre*, I'm going to lie down for a bit" and slipped away, leaving the others to their laughter and the clinking dishes in the kitchen.He went upstairs with heavy steps, each stair creaking under his weight like a reproach. His room was a dark haven, the half-closed shutters filtering the fading evening light, casting long shadows

  • My dad's bestfriend   Silent Game

    Coming down the stairs, she found the house completely deserted, steeped in the muted, honeyed light that slipped through the wooden shutters. Javier, Diego, and Ellie hadn't made it back from their surfing session yet; their neoprene wetsuits were still missing from their usual hooks by the door, and the silence felt denser without the echo of their boisterous laughter. She wandered into the kitchen, picked a piece of fruit from the basket, and turned it over in her fingers without really bringing it to her lips she had no appetite, her mind already hurtling toward dinner that night. That was her opening, and she knew exactly how to play it. She pictured it with crystalline clarity: lingering, drawn-out looks that would pin him in place, forcing him to be the first to glance away, flustered. Sideways smiles, tossed out like casual afterthoughts whenever he spoke. Small, deliberate shifts in her posture that would trace the line of her curves just enough to be noticed, never enough to

  • My dad's bestfriend   A Slow Revenge

    The afternoon sun filtered through the half-open shutters of Sofia's room, casting bands of golden light across the polished wooden floor like bars of an invisible prison. She'd been lying on her bed for what felt like an eternity, the rumpled sheets around her in a chaotic cocoon, her pillow still damp from last night's tears. The silence of the empty house wrapped around her, broken only by the distant ticking of a clock downstairs and the endless murmur of the waves in the distance a steady rhythm that violently contrasted with the turmoil in her head. She'd slept fitfully, a restless sleep filled with fragmented dreams where Pedro kissed her passionately before brutally pushing her away, his face transforming into her father's, Javier's, filled with disappointment. Each awakening dragged her back to reality: the shower, this very morning, that moment when everything had seemed possible, when her body had vibrated under his hands, and then... nothing. Just that cold rejection, that

  • My dad's bestfriend   The Breaking Point

    He pushed open the front door, and the party swallowed him whole a deafening whirlwind of bass vibrating in his chest, dim lights pulsing like a frantic heart, bodies pressed together in a primal dance. The smell was a heady mix: sour sweat, cheap perfume, spilled alcohol on the sticky floor. Young people everywhere girls in tight dresses laughing loudly, shirtless guys raising their glasses and shouting incoherent toasts. Pedro pushed through the crowd, dodging elbows and brushing hips, heading for the makeshift bar where bottles lined up like soldiers ready for battle.Brooke spotted him before he could order. She approached with a dazzling smile, her short dress a scrap of black fabric hugging her curves like a second skin, shimmering under the multicolored lights. Her blonde hair cascaded in perfect curls, and her flawless makeup hid any trace of fatigue. She kissed his cheek, leaving a bright red mark on his skin, her heady perfume invading his nostrils like an invasion."Pedro!
