The pages of the folders were flying all over the place, it was a complete chaos bathed in tears, I couldn't bear it much longer, the raindrops hitting my window, the storm consuming the night and my inner peace with its, everything seemed to crumble and Turning a casual purple, I felt the paint touch my fingertips despite not having seen a canvas in years, just these nights used to be the inspiration for the most gloomy subjects
Her visit was somewhat surprising and there were still traces of her perfume on my clothes, her essence was still there, her warmth, I couldn't pull it off. every detail was in my mind, like an infinite loop, like a DVD case without removing my finger from the play button, the tears were already coming down making their way to my frustration, while my hands clasped, hitting the table again.
The phone in the living room rang, making me get up from the seat and walk there, to take the call, I had disconnected any other phone inside the house, I needed to analyze the new cases more in depth although now it was playing against me. In time for the last ring of the phone, I picked it up, and directed it to my right ear
-This is Rodriguez. I answered quickly expecting a similar answer from the other line, no one apart from the department knew the home mobile or at least I thought so
-I did not remember so much formality on your part, but I like it, I must admit that your command voice is somewhat exciting, answered the voice on the other side of the line, altering my nerves much more, why the hell was she calling home?
You won't say anything, I've tried hard to get your Sofia number, look, I don't want to play teenagers anymore, you know, if you don't answer then I'll have to hang up.
-Here I am, I'm just surprised I didn't expect your call, besides, how do you know my home mobile? I don't remember being able to tell you in the alley. I said rubbing my hand against my hair, everything was confusing from a couple of hours ago
-You didn't, the truth is that mom gave it to me once, but I have never had the courage to mark it, I called you because I feel that I owe you an apology, my way of acting was not right, I'm really sorry Sofia
-Okay, it's just been the moment I guess, you don't owe me an apology, I didn't expect to see you there and even less have a situation so out of place right in the middle of a neighborhood of criminals
She laughed loudly, if he missed her laugh, if he missed everything about her, I couldn't curse her perfume, or the heat of her body, not even hers, her sweet, you right now behind her. mobile
-What was so funny? , I replied, wishing for a few more minutes with her on the other side of the line
-Nothing, I almost didn't want to invade your space, I just thought you wanted it like I did, it was all a misunderstanding
- It hasn't been, I said suddenly, surprised by my words, I had to admit that even if the place was the worst, the heat of her body did manage to upset me.
-not? , she asked playfully, i could imagine her in a somewhat seductive posture and the change of her voice for a more sexual tone
-no, but it was not the time or the place. You are still beautiful as always, I am sorry to have reacted something rough with you, it was not my intention, just understand me, I have been looking for you for a while and suddenly you appear and ......
-I understand, I have missed you too, I am very sorry to appear and disappear constantly but I will be here for a few months and I need to contact you so you could open your door. When I finished saying those words, the phone already occupied a place on the floor and my legs turned to jelly, the self-confident woman, with 3 years training in self-defense, had come out through the small hole in that telephone line.
I turned the doorknob, but I stopped for a second, I had to think like a policeman all the time, I took my gun and removed the safety, again I put my hands on the doorknob pointing at whoever was on the other side, when I saw her standing there , my chest beats took a higher frequency, I turned my vision to all the places in the corridor, It was alone, at least that could calm me a little
-You're going to sign me up all night or I can keep going.
-Sorry, come in, I allowed her to pass and I put the safety on the gun again, I closed the knob, as soon as I turned I could see how beautiful she was, in fact time only played in favor with her beauty, and I only admired her it seemed so fragile but it was only a disguise, she was without a doubt the bravest girl that nobody spoke of, never mentioned or even ignored
-You will stay there, I am cold sofí, I want a chocolate, do you think I can have one?, She asked, advancing to where she was, stopping a few centimeters away between our bodies, her hands caressed my face, my eyes closed before Her contact still believed i was dreaming and wishing not to wake up, it was her hands, her smell, again the tears were tarnishing our moment
-Why are you crying? She asked without leaving her caresses
-I can't believe it's really you, that you're here, I've been looking for you for years, trying to get something, no matter how simple it was, everything has been a fiasco and now you appear in that alley and right now you are at my house, forgive me but i haven't had enough alcohol so i'm freaking out or i fell asleep on the desk
I felt her arms wrap around my waist, and the smell of her hair permeated my nostrils, it was her and me again, the world had stayed outside the door, the rain kept falling and the storm only increased with the minutes, my Thoughts did not shut up, my heart was beating wildly, would I go crazy? Definitely if it was a dream I would not want to wake up
