Prologue
"Where am I?, where was I?, I was at work, wasn't I?.... My head feels
like it was made of lead, hot lead; heavy, incandescent, pounding."
"Why Are my eyes closed?, I can't see a thing, I can fell a blind fold...
Where am I? I can feel I'm naked, but is not cold, there is a soft
Surface under me like a leather couch, I should be scared but I feel
mostly confused and disoriented, I must've been drugged."
"Be logical what do you remember."
Before day 1
I was at work, I'm pretty sure about it, think, be rational, remember...
remember...
This morning (Monday) I woke up earlier than usual, I was excited about
something; I couldn't sleep anymore so I woke up at about 5:00 a.m.,
took a shower, and got dressed, I had a big breakfast, knew I deserved
it, but why...
Yes!, I remember I work as assistant manager in a food processing
plant, it's a really shitty job, long hours, foul odors, measly pay and
a lot of work politics to deal with every day; but even though I
graduated as the best in the University the cost of my student loan
forced me into this awful trade.
My duties were a mix between dealing with the financial cravings of the
union and balancing the ever decreasing budget, this was even harder
considering that my boss is an overpaid ignorant fat slob who landed
that job because of connections and brownnosing, well I did that too,
but in Mexico is the only way to have a job by means of knowing someone
on the inside. In my case after I graduated I gave my resume to all of
my classmates, teachers and headhunters, but not being on the popular
side just produced this terrible job in the middle of Sonora, I had
never even travelled to the north of the country and now I lived in the
worst violent miserable City of the country.
This morning I was excited because my boss finally got to see my genius
and my creativeness because I landed us a sweet negotiation between the
workers union, political lobbyists and the management costs, the deal
was sheer greatness and it was in every newspaper and the news, yes I
remember It was recognized as a master stroke in business and politics
and It had my name all over it, my promotion to branch manager was
imminent.
When I got to work, it was deserted and it would have been normal
because I was almost two hours early, but the atmosphere was strange,
even the security guards looked suspicious you can breathe a change in
the air, something was bound to happen; there's a "Sense of impending
doom," I tried to ignore it and started preparing for the day, Mondays
were always tough.
At 8:30 my boss got to his office (it was next to mine) and my worries
arose again, he NEVER got here before 9:30 even considering that our
starting hour should be 9:00 he never cared about firm policies and did
whatever he wanted because of his connections.
He immediately called me in his office, he looked more unkempt than
usual (considering a man who never flossed and only shaved one or two
times a week), his tie was stained, his hair wasn't combed and still
wet from the shower, his shirt was a mess and of course he hadn't
shaved.
"You are in deep shit, you know?" he told me with his head bowed like
in secrecy and I could smell his tobacco and decayed teeth stench. "The
union is not happy, you moved the budget, talked to everybody and did
everything for the workers" I nodded and was surprised because, that's
exactly what I should have done, I found the resources to meet the
demands of the workers and in my six years working here it had never
been possible.
"When you contacted the government and met the worker's demands you
fucked all of us all..." I just saw him with a blank stare in my face,
like a deer between two truck headlights. "You idiot if the workers are
happy, the union doesn't make demands, there are no strikes and money
doesn't have to flow anymore," He kept explaining and I was really
lost. "How can we meet our quota of money laundering? When everybody
has what they need, a contract review won't be necessary for at least
two more years, how will we create special payments for officials,
Union leaders and of course the real bosses?"
I had heard more than rumors about money laundry, here in Sonora there
was no business that wasn't involved with drug dealing in one way or
another, but I was confused, the numbers always added, accounting was
always clear. Then it struck me, they were on this too! Of course I'm
such a prick, I was the only asshole not to get invited because I'm
nobody. I was just a patsy.
My boss read my face and saw understanding. "Now you get it moron, you
are here because your little friends in Mexico City landed you here,
but your work never mattered, neither does mine. The people who really
runs this place are very, very far from here, we are just cannon fodder
and now you are going down; I'm not falling for your shit."
"It's too soon for the bosses to understand how you screwed them, but
if we want to keep breathing you are out and I'm the one who fired you,
so get your shit out and sign your resignation letter write something
about health or family I don't care as long as you are out RIGHT NOW"
He shouted. "you are not even getting paid severance..... GO, I don't
want to see your fuck face ever again" He gesticulated a little more
shouted a lot while I was leaving and there was no trace of a joke, I
was being fired.
My thoughts only dwelt on betrayal, not about this shitface, I had
always felt betrayed by the system. Politics are rotten to the core, I
live in a country where the cartels grind the population to have even
bigger profit margins and the government is no better, they work only
to rip the people of every dime they have, in some poor states they
even retain the pay of their workers to pay for their elections and
their own interests.
I got to my office and there was someone waiting. "May I help you?" I
started to say, but I felt sharp pain from behind me and everything
went black.
And now I'm here wherever here it is; be logical, that has always been
the trick. I was obviously abducted, it has to be because of the union
and work, DON'T PANIC, you are alive otherwise you wouldn't be
thinking, and hurting. You are well, the only pain is from the head and
it's subsiding, maybe it's from the blow you took or maybe drugs. Try
to listen. Maybe you can hear voices or something.
Suddenly my blindfold was loosened and light flashed brightly into my
face. It was so bright that my eyes took some time getting used to it,
I was in a very large and very nice living room with beautiful leather
furniture and exquisite decorations, there were paintings, sculptures
and tasteful furnishings, at the moment it looked somehow familiar in
its d?cor, but I was positive I had never been here nevertheless the
familiarity was still there I couldn't quite point my finger at why,
then I turned in all directions and saw them.
First I saw a big, overweight middle aged man with mirror ray ban
eyeglasses a heavy mustache, and a cowboy hat, he unmistakably looked
like a farmer or an outdoorsman of some kind, there were other two
beside him with the same rugged look, three others near the door all
looked almost the same with cowboy hats, boots, dirty jeans and they
were ALL carrying guns.
There was another more distinguished person in the back he was wearing
an expensive suit and dark glasses, he approached slowly and when he
talked I knew exactly who he was, that's when everything became
completely surreal.
I met Norberto at the Institute of Technology of Mexico City, one of
the best undergrad programs in the whole country. We were both in the
first class of the freshman year in the business management class, he
was one year older than me, and only starting as a freshman, because of
family issues; he liked all kinds of reading and electronic games just
like me so we hit it off and were best friends from the very beginning.
Right away I could notice that he came from a wealthy family and I was
a struggling student with a scholarship and a forever payable student
loan, we were both foreigners I was from the east part of the country
and he was from the south so unfamiliar surroundings helped to fortify
our friendship.
I was a very big nerd and never had spending money so I always studied
or spend time at my aunt's house near the University, even in holydays;
I couldn't afford to go home to Merida City in the southeast of Mexico
so I always stayed in the city; he was a lot more laid back he didn't
study as hard and had a lot of absences, but was brilliant so never had
a problem at school and had almost as good grades as me.
We studied and played video games all the time either in his apartment
or at my aunt's house, he was a really shy boy and even though he could
pay it he almost never wanted to party, at first I thought it was weird
because he never lacked confidence, but later it became common and I
stopped thinking about it. In my case I was a huge nerd so I didn't go
out as well so our chats were always about video games, comic books,
movies, life and in some rare times we talked about what we liked in
girls, but he was very shy and I was a big nerd so we never had any
female company.
Freshman years are always the worst, but we managed to obtain good
grades, we did everything together and I'm pretty sure school would
have been a lot harder without him by my side.
It was at the end of our third school year when it happened, we were
playing video games and having some beers in Norberto's apartment when
his cellphone rang, he didn't have a home number and in 2008 it was a
little unusual, he checked the caller's ID and became agitated, he
stood up and ran to the bedroom, he took the call in private with the
door closed.
When he came back he looked like he had been crying, he excused himself
and told me he had to travel to his family's house in the north, his
father had just passed away.
He missed all the next classes, and I didn't see him for a lot of time.
Suddenly school became a very sad place and eventually graduation in
2009 was very lonely without my friend.
As I said before I end up in my shitty Job in Hermosillo, Sonora and
started one of the most miserable times of my life.
I saw him again in 2011 when he came to Hermosillo and found me in my
workplace, he looked very different he was very well dressed in a
professional way, but looked tougher and colder., we went to an upscale
bar in the nicest part of town, I could see he had guards with him and
that we had been closely followed to everywhere. Then he told me
everything that had happened.
"When my father died," he explained, "my whole world changed. I knew it
was bound to happen, but I was in denial; I wanted to live a normal
life and every night I prayed for my father's wellbeing, mostly because
I didn't want what would surely come from his demise. In my family's
business there are things that nobody can escape. In my school years I
lived l had a taste of a normal life and had a wishful thinking that my
reality would be in the future magically changed."
By this time I became curious, but also surprised. I thought I knew my
friend completely, but now it seemed something different and even
sinister was lurking. "When he died," he continued, "my family's safety
became my responsibility and I'm not talking only about financial
security, I'm talking life and death." He hesitated he sighed like lost
in thought and continued. "You see my birth name is not Norberto, I
changed it when I was 15 because of the notoriety, my birth name is
Felipe Romero Loza, does it ring a bell?"
Of course it did. That name had been on the news for years, Felipe
Romero Senior had been the most important Drug dealer in the northwest
of Mexico and in all of the United States of America. He had been in
the most wanted list in all the international agencies for more than 20
years and had never been caught, when he was killed it was by a rival
cartel, after his death a gang war started and when it finished
(through incredible cruelty and bloodshed) his former allies became
stronger; they even wiped out their entire competition. They became not
the strongest, but the ONLY cartel in Mexico and the Colombian and
Brazilian organizations where close to them and paid tribute to make
business with them. They were not thugs they were Royalty and the whole
western hemisphere bowed their heads in their presence, even in the
United States the government dealt with them not by warring directly,
they worked together, after the cartel war was over corruption grew
exponentially in 2012 the elections favored the Institutional Party and
Government restarted collaboration with the cartel that hadn't been the
norm with the former right wing party. Strangely, the people was at
peace and prosperity came back, the Romeros became the modern twisted
version of Robin Hood for every little impoverished inhabitant of every
backwater town of the north and west of Mexico.
Norberto saw my face and could easily read that I understood completely
what he had told me and I really had no doubts that everything was
true. "You know me, you know I'm not kidding," he said, "but more
important, I came for you because I want you to work with me, there is
a lot you can do for us, I?ll come for your answer tomorrow at this
time in this place, if you are not here I'll understand your position
and won't bother you ever again with this proposition." With that he
stood up, instructed one of his men to pay and left.
I couldn't sleep that night, I couldn't completely believe anything I
heard that night, I really missed my friend, but convinced myself that
he had changed, he became someone entirely different and that kind of
life wasn't for me, yes I still had tons of money to pay in student
loans and credit card debt, but I was sure I would find something
better eventually, I had no desire or skills to become a criminal, so
the decision was easy, that afternoon I was nowhere near that Bar, in
fact I never returned there or saw my pal again, until now.
Back to the end of summer of 2015, I was stupefied to see my friend
after so many years, he had changed a lot. For starters he reeked
confidence and inspired fear, he had gained weight, but didn't look
heavy, he looked strong, the people around him treated him with respect
and in collusion, he was surrounded by at least 6 men who were
obviously his must trusted and the kind of relationship they projected
was of strong camaraderie. This people had obviously sorted great
ordeals together and loyalty was as strong as it could be, they knew
each other to the bones and every one of them would kill for the other.
This was clear as crystal, so why am I here? I don't belong to this
brotherhood, even with my school friendship and long confident hours.
"Marco," Norberto started saying. "Is good to see you." He came near to
me but didn't make physical contact; I opened my mouth and tried to
articulate some words, but one of his aids grabbed me by the shoulder
and not so gently forced me to stay in in a sit down position and
listen. "I'll state what is going to happen, today is September 8th you
have been out for a little less than 24 hours; you are going to live in
this house for almost a month, every of your needs and desires is going
to be fulfilled by the house's staff you will learn how to be a woman,
MY BRIDE, in the evening of October 1st I'll come back and if I'm
satisfied we will continue our relationship if I'm not happy with the
results; you'll die." "I have contacted your boss and he is happy to be
rid of you, he thinks the mess with the union is your fault and he even
thinks in suing you after firing you for incompetence and personal
damages." "Let me tell you a secret: everything that happen at your
work was devised by me." "Also I contacted your family, your Mom and
sisters believe that you had a job opportunity abroad and went for a
job interview in Malaysia, I have access to your personal email and I
will be answering for you." "No one is looking, your email and Facebook
profiles will be updated regularly and nobody will miss you." "If you
try to escape you will be shot." "Also, here you are the Boss and
everybody will help you in everything you want except escaping or
contacting outside." "This house has everything you need to become a
woman or if you need anything else you can ask for it; it will be
provided, I'll see you in about a month. That should be enough time to
learn everything if you work hard as I know you can." When he finished
talking most of the men had already left and only Norberto and two men
remained. "Good bye my dear, I'll see you soon," he finished that
sentence and left, the guards waited for him to leave and expected me
to talk or scream, but people with guns are intimidating so I remained
quiet and in my place.
Day 1
When they left I was angry and confused. No, I was hurt; how could he
use me like that? We were best of friends, I couldn't believe he
expected me to be a woman? His bimbo? HIS BRIDE?? That couldn't be
correct. He was my closest friend, hell my ONLY friend and yes I
suspected he might have gay tendencies, but that's wasn't my problem.
That had never been my problem, he never did anything to me and we had
very good times in innocent talk and play. But now he could go straight
to hell and fuck with the devil or be fucked by him, I don't care, I'm
not doing this, I'll just scape or if not possible I'll spend this
month here and do nothing. Later on, we will talk and I will find my
way out, he couldn't consider killing me because I was not a fairy.
Or maybe this is just a misunderstanding, maybe I didn't hear
correctly...
"No, I've known him for a long time he had that serious face.... Could he
be joking? Could he...? This seems completely surreal, yes that should be
it, he's paying me a huge prank, in any moment he will come back and
tell me it was a joke, he's just playing hard ball at his job offering,
or maybe he knew and arranged all that thing with the union so I
wouldn't have a choice." My mind continued working.
But I knew my friend, I recognized his tone and deep inside my mind I
was certain this was for real.
"That's it I'll wait here and he will come back and tell me he was
joking, he will show me my clothes and we will start playing in the 70
inch T.V. set like we used to." Ok we are not kids anymore, we were
near 30, I was 28 and he should be 29 we were grown men and childish
games didn't fit in this talk at all.
But he didn't come back, I sat there all naked and waited, I could see
in the distance through the windows his guards and in the back of my
skull I knew something was not right, but the mind is a powerful tool
and I tried to listen my conscious voice repeating that this was just a
joke and nothing Norberto told me was real, but my inner self knew the
truth. How could it be? It was stupid and disgusting, I wasn't going to
use any girl's clothes, I was not going to "make myself pretty for
him." This is just plain nuts.
Hours passed, two or three I really don't know, I lost track of it, I
nodded off and I didn't even knew what time was when I woke up and even
then I kept waiting.
Boredom kicked in and I stood up, I needed to explore this place if
this wasn't a prank. This was my house, no my prison; at least for the
next month, but "of course that was ridiculous so I better not think
that way, I will check the house because is Norberto's and he is my
friend, he will return in any moment and my clothes must be upstairs, I
will cover myself because it's getting late and I don't want anybody to
see me like this while he comes back."
It was a really nice living room, very spacious, with great floor to
ceiling windows that showed a very big garden a paved road and a front
gate about 300 or 400 feet away, I could see a pool in between and in
the distance I could hear the ocean, it's funny all this time had
passed and I wasn't aware how near the sea I must have been, so where
the fuck was I?
Near the gate in the distance I could see two of the men who were here
with Norberto they had machine guns hanging in their shoulders (Ak-47
of course the preferred tool of a Drug dealer) they were guarding the
house, with my knowledge about my friend and his family I knew this was
of course and important security measure for a safe house, they
prevented people coming from the outside bursting in and avoid some
possible danger to the family inside, but of course they could be here
also to prevent me from going out.
I just sighed and reality started burrowing in the back of my mind,
this is not a joke, he has always had a crush on you, there were some
signals all that time you dismissed them, but now you know it and have
always known it.
I continued my explorations and found myself in the kitchen, it was
bigger than my living room, It had every appliance that I have ever
heard of, blenders, toasters, microwave oven, radio, TV, etc., the
stove was in the center and it looked like every meal of a small army
could be prepared in here, a medium sized table with 8 chairs was in a
corner, then I saw the fridge and started feeling extremely hungry, how
much time had passed since my last meal? I opened it and it was full
with all sorts of prepared meals, fruit and vegetables there were even
some pastries, I took a big slice of cheese cake and ate it like I was
a war refugee, after that I drank a beer and because I had lived alone
for a very long time I knew very well how to cook so I prepared a steak
with onions and some ready to fry French fries, also a canned soup and
sat to eat with joy; It was all from premium quality so it tasted like
ephemeral greasy poetry, but it only helped made reality sink even
further to understand that this was my life for the time being even
though I still didn't want to accept it.
When I finished my meal it started to get dark outside and a little
chill crept inside, I was still naked and felt uncomfortable but I was
sure that something could be found somewhere to cover my stripped ass,
I took another beer with me and continued my survey.
The first floor had a living room, dining room with a big banquet table
for about 20 people, a small reception with a little couch set, a small
half bath, the kitchen and two locked doors, one should be to a garage
and the other for a workshop or basement with laundry room and such,
the front door wasn't locked, but of course it wouldn?t be with such a
big fence and armed men on the outside.
There was a second floor with 5 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms and a
spacious TV room in the middle, where every electronic gadget was
available, I turned the very big TV on and it had no cable or aerial
signal there was only internet so it would only be Netflix or You tube
or some streaming service, there was a sound system playing consoles,
Blu-Ray player and such.
4 of the rooms were completely empty in another there was a fully
equipped gym and in the last one there was an office with a desktop
computer a printer, and every office Gizmo, there was a very big
bookshelf stacked with trendy novels and some classics, he knew I loved
to read, I also saw a very big comic book collection like the one we
used to have in our youth but expanded and modernized with every issue
in premium condition, yes this was set up specially for me, it couldn't
be denied, this was the tipping point I finished feeling confused or
surprised, I started to feel very angry, how could he believe that
giving me everything I enjoy could make me want to be whatever he
wants, it's insulting to even think he could buy me like a thing so I
shouted aloud for the first time and wanted to kick something, but I
wasn't stupid enough to do it barefooted, I turned on the computer,
Obviously it was heavily guarded, the maps, and e-mail were blocked, I
couldn't access anything outside the "Bookmarked sites" and they were
all about fashion or a fixed account in Pinterest, but again who could
I contact, according to Norberto my family believed that I was
uncommunicated but fine, they weren't expecting any kind of coded
communication, in my job I had been framed and maybe under an
investigation for anything my boss told his superiors.
I left the office and saw that again there was another stairwell to a
third floor and I found the only bedroom with furniture upstairs it was
huge because it covered the total surface of the upper floor, I got in
and saw all the girly furnishings with a mauve carpet from wall to
wall, there was a huge bed in the middle of the room, it had a purple
comforter with black leopard spots (jeez you can't even have dignity
sleeping in this thing) it was weird to see it in this tasteful house
but the room looked like it had a different decorator all along or that
it was to unmistakably be surrounded by a feminine atmosphere, the bed
had lots of small pillows that matched the comforter and were in all
kinds of animal print with silvers, whites and purples.
There was a big couch also in purple velvet and the matching love seat
in front of a very large TV set with gizmos of its own a small coffee
table with two matching chairs a big vanity with every beauty product,
there's stuff I don't have names for, obviously I have never used any
of these so I didn't even know their names. I approached the vanity and
saw my glasses they had a small rim, I tried them on and saw that they
were unmistakably my pair, at least I could watch TV or play games with
my own glasses.
As every place in the house it was very spacious, very clean and
everything looked expensive, there as I said before was a large T.V.
set although it wasn't as big as the one downstairs, it also had a
Playstaion 4 console and an xbox one, it wasn't directly in front of
the bed because the vanity was there so it was on the side and it could
be watched from there, but it was used more comfortably from the couch.
I walked all the way to the side of the room and opened the curtains,
there was a glass door that lead to a big balcony with resting chairs
and a plastic table all bolted to the floor maybe thinking in wind or
storms.
This obviously was the main bedroom, it was a lot bigger than any of
the other empty rooms and on the other side there was a big bathroom
with a shower and a Jacuzzi, also there was a huge walk-in closet, it
had to be about a hundred squared feet, it had big doors and drawers on
both sides for six or eight feet, after that it continued with seven
shelves for shoes, they were completely filled with every kind of
women's shoes, flats, heels, boots, sandals, wedges and mules in every
color and heel size, I looked for some tennis shoes and I only found
one pair and It was electric pink, unmistakably girl's tennis shoes.
I looked inside the sliding doors and drawers and found dresses,
skirts, shorts, blouses, jackets everything with a girl cut. Inside the
closet there was a little table and a small individual sofa maybe to
think about the choices in wardrobe, the drawers were all filled with
all kinds of sportswear, swimsuits and all kinds of lingerie, I didn't
even check them thoroughly. In another part there was a stand with
breast forms, girdles and some fitting garments I don't have a name
for.
To look at all this stuff made everything a little more real, it
disturbed me in many ways, I was angry and pissed so I yelled at the
top of my lungs "Fuck you I'm not wearing any of this, I won't play
your sick perverted game I will use the bed sheets, the towels or find
a way, but I won't use these shit, if this is my last month to live
like you stated; I will be a man all through it, I won't budge, I swear
to myself I will resist"
By this time it was pitch dark outside and I could hear some night
insects. The rumbling of the sea was louder; everything else was
silent, so I was left alone with my anger so, like any one would; I
screamed, I cursed and I even threw a tantrum, but couldn't get myself
to break or rip anything I that simply wasn't in my nature.
After an hour or so I checked the towels and even those were girly, all
pink or purple or with animal print, so I continued naked and defiantly
went to the kitchen, took the whole box of beer with me with about 30
small sized coronas, I was sure I couldn't drink them all, but I didn't
care so I filled the Jacuzzi and started drinking. I could even have
had a good time if it wasn't so fucking ridiculous and I wasn't so
dammed pissed.
So I drank a lot and after one or two hours I stumbled out of the tub,
dripping water everywhere, I couldn't care less about drying myself I
just went to the purple bed and collapsed on top of it, thankfully it
was a warm night and I didn't care about sleeping bare naked.
Day 2
When I woke up, the sun was up in the sky and the heat should have been
unbearable outside, but the AC was on and I could feel a light breeze
right in my ass, that's when I remembered where I was and why I was
naked, the velvet comforter was under my body and I had to admit that
it felt quite nice, most of it in my privates, I just didn't want to
accept anything in that house, so I stood up and the whole weight of
last night beers came crashing into my head, stomach and bladder, so I
ran into the bathroom and poured all that beer into the pink colored
porcelain toilet bowl.
When I climbed down the stairs I was so absorbed in my headache that I
didn't notice there was someone chatting and eating in the kitchen.
When I got in, there was a high pitched scream and the cleaning lady
with amazing dexterity used one hand to cover her assistance housemaid
eyes and another to throw me a small kitchen rag. "Madre de Dios, cover
yourself Se?ora, that's indecent" she shouted at me in Spanish. It was
Mrs. Lopez the eternal housekeeper of the Romeros.
Mrs. L (like everybody called her) had been the housekeeper of the
Romeros for many many years, she had been taken in by Norberto's father
when she was just a small girl orphaned by a gang war in the early
1960's in a small town in Chihuahua Mexico, she was taken care,
educated and grew up almost like a little sister to Mr. Felipe Romero,
she became like a second mother to Norberto, his sisters and brother,
her loyalty and ferocity was that of a Doberman, she was a member of
"the help" but had had a good life, she got married to a respected
small time store owner and her two sons went to the finest University
in Mexico City (every aspect of her life paid by the immense wealth and
power of the Romero family), even though she had a beautiful loving
family she was the most loyal of the servants and NEVER even thought in
changing her job or anything in her life, she lived to serve this
family, nothing was above that and in that many years she understood
that sometimes she would be called to do things outside the normal
standards, but she would never falter in her duties, her resolve was
never unwavering, never questioning and always fulfilling her role in
the best way as humanly possible.
Today wasn't the exception the new master Don Felipe Jr. (now Norberto)
took care of every aspect of the business when his father died seven
years ago and of course part of the deal was the service of Mrs. L. Two
years ago he finished consolidating the family, he had been brutal many
times and he did whatever was needed to enforce the control of the
business, he was fast, he was ruthless, but at the end everybody
understood that there was no contest on who was the Boss after six and
a half years of gruesome consolidation he talked to his family about
the future. He presented to everybody what was going to be the new
direction. Like he was the CEO of a global enterprise (and that was
what he was), everybody involved understood the role that was given and
everybody bowed their heads in approval, anyone who could have
dissented had been eliminated in the most efficient way a while ago,
nobody stood to confront the head of the Family.
Six months ago, Norberto talked to his blood family and admitted he was
lonely, His Mother, his younger sisters, his little brother and of
course Mrs. L knew that was true, he had become a bitter young man and
even though he had been efficient, strict and meticulous he did that
because he had to, he didn't enjoy it. The cause of his loneliness
wasn't only the business he had inherited or the life he had been
forced to lead; all his family had knew since a very young age that he
was Gay and in this kind of life that could be fatal if known, he knew
that any weakness would be employed by his enemies and that eventually
it would be deathly to his loved ones, nevertheless he confided that he
was still in love with his college friend and the life he had in that
time even though he had been rejected.
"You see that's the only time in my life that makes sense, the only
moment when I was truly happy and I need to recover balance from a
world that it's not crazy, I invited him to work with me, but I'm
thankful he rejected me, as a colleague even as a general I would have
been rejected."
"We have lived this life for so many years that we forget that there is
a parallel world in which violence is not the common rule, my little
brother doesn't even believe me when I tell him life is different
outside of the family, we need help to fit into society once again, I
need help to regain perspective so I don't become a cold hearted
killing bastard."
"Go get him Mijo (My son in Spanish); find him," his mother told him,
"you have proven in these years that you are a resourceful man, and you
have selflessly done everything you inherited good and bad, you will
find a way, I know you in a way only a Mother can and I think you are
talking right now with us, because you have found a way, am I wrong?"
Everybody turned to him and a mischievous smile appeared on his face,
yes I think I found a way, so everybody gathered and listened, that was
the way it had been for years in the Family and would continue to be.
That's how Mrs. L came to know what was happening right now and she
would do whatever it was necessary to help in her master's plan.
I had met Mrs. L in one or two times that I had visited the Romero
Family House in Guerrero (Southwest Mexico) and I was pretty sure she
remembered me so I was very surprised when she called me "Se?ora" (Mrs.
In Spanish), but I was very occupied covering my privates and not
having my brains torn by the screaming that I let it slip, but I was
pretty sure of what I had heard.
"Cover yourself," she continued, "I won't allow a naked "person" (she
remarked this in a derisive way like looking for a way to call me) in
my Kitchen. Go for something to wear, RUN."
Again I was intrigued by the way she said "person," avoiding the issue
of gender in the sentence, she even had to remark the word, I was
almost lost in thought when she shouted again, "GO, GO it's indecent."
"But there's nothing for me to wear." It surprised me a little how
girlish this sounded, whiny even, I started to talk again but she
shouted "YOU HAVE TONS of clothing, GO!!." So that ended my plan of a
month of unrestricted nakedness.
I went up holding my hands at my head pounding from the hangover and
the screaming, what kind of dork was I that the screaming of an old
woman was enough to make me ignore the solemn bows I had taken last
night.
I got into the room and concocted a swift plan, I'm going to rummage
through it all and find something, manly enough. Even girls wear pants
or sweatpants, maybe some shorts that are not very feminine, I entered
the closet and started looking for something to wear.
First underwear, most of the panties wear lacy and extra girlish, maybe
some cotton panties, but I couldn't find any so that was it. I was
going commando, no more underwear for me, so now pants. Perfect! There
were three folded jeans and I could see other four in the back, that's
enough to last for the whole time, so I unfolded the one in the top and
I could see it that they could be my size just a little tight, so I
tried them on. It was very tight but clearly my size the only part it
was very uncomfortable was on my "junk," the legs, the waist, and even
my ass fit perfectly and it hit me. "Oh my god" I said loudly. "this
clothing is REALLY for me, it's no accident, is not a half-baked plan"
so I decided just to try something more ridiculous just to check on my
theory. I took a very girly tight see through blouse and tried it on...
It fit like a glove, then I took it off and tried some flats, it was a
perfect match this scared the shit out of me. Yes Norberto and I were
once the best of friends but I hadn't seen him for almost four years
after the botched recruiting attempt and now he even had my shoe size,
my actual present day measures. This was sick.
He said that he controlled my mail and Facebook accounts, sometimes I
had ordered clothing online but it had been two or three years ago,
since when has he been spying on me?
I stood there dressed only in a pair of girl's jeans in shock for about
15 minutes when hunger and thirst attacked again, so I reluctantly
continued and found a light pink T-shirt with really small cap sleeves
it was tight at my waist and had a print about "Paris" and "Love" in
the front , it was obviously girly, but not as bad as the alternatives;
I looked for some socks and only found really small ones with hearts
painted on, well they'll work out for the time being, I grabbed the
pink tennis shoes and my outfit for today was complete, I looked at the
body length mirror and I looked stupid with a 24-36 hour beard growth
and a very cute everyday outfit, I was only surprised by the jeans
because my legs looked really hot, long, slender and even cute, I
turned around and I could see my butt, it looked almost shapely and
well-toned by the fabric, I can see why women try all the clothes
before; if it can make even me look hot, how would this work in a real
girl? The only problem was with my penis, it felt very uncomfortable
and the denim was starting to rub so I was sure that later on it was
going to be bruised, even without getting an erection, and considering
that I was in my late-twenties I don't think I can be a whole day
without one.
Somehow satisfied or defeated I went downstairs and got into the
kitchen, Mrs. L was there and sighed a relief. "Well is not a very
distinguished look Se?ora, but it is certainly better," she served some
Chilaquiles (traditional Mexican breakfast meal, made with spicy
tortillas, eggs and chicken or steak meat, often used for someone who
has a hungover), Eggs, orange juice, coffee and some sweet bread, I was
very hungry so I finished everything.
She continued her chores, talking to the housemaid, the gardener and
even the guards, one of them saw me with the T-Shirt and I could see a
hint of a smile, but it wasn't a mock, it was more like satisfaction.
Yes laugh you bastard I have a plan and you'll see, I lied to myself,
my ego was very bruised, but I was confident I would recover.
When I finished I felt a little more relaxed and less angry I called
Mrs. L, she sat in a chair opposite to me and gesticulated in a way to
make me understand she was listening.
I asked her if she knew what was happening, if she remembered me, if
Norberto was serious, and everything that was in my mind.
"Se?ora," she began to say, "yes I met you in another life, you are a
very important person for my boss. Yes this is completely serious, he
doesn't do anything he is not committed and he is looking for your
commitment, He know you also you are like the Pork and chicken story in
eggs and bacon the chicken lays the eggs and that's it, the Pork has to
give his life in the bacon, he and you are alike in this you both give
life and soul to any situation and he knows it, so it became my job to
watch for your every need and comfort while you get your bearings and
understand that is your destiny to become the Lady of the house, even
the queen of an Empire."
My blood started to rush to my head, yes I knew how stubborn he was,
and bratty! Like a spoiled child! Everything should be to his liking
and everybody should be prepared to be at his service, but this was too
much, I am not a toy! More important I am not a Doll and I am not to be
abused this way! So I got up and started to go out when I said "How can
he do that, we were friends, the best of friends and now he wants me to
be his fuck slave, this is crazy... You know, you could help me," I
hinted. "Help me go, or buy me other clothes." "I?m sorry Se?ora you
are to remain here 'till you come to your senses and I will help you
get to reach your potential, everybody here is to fulfill this task and
we were all handpicked to ensure it happens before the deadline." After
that I stormed out of the kitchen and threw myself into a couch to
think about the situation, I felt a little relaxed and were still very
tired for everything that happened the day before.
I must've dozed off because when I opened my eyes most of the day had
gone by, I was still angry and became very upset when I thought that I
didn't like being a prisoner and possibly in the future a prostitute,
but I really liked the time off and the attention if I wasn't in his
situation this could almost be an All-inclusive Beach Resort, this
dichotomy was very unsettling and made me angry about myself, how could
I be thinking that horse shit.
The smell coming from the kitchen was delicious and I found myself
drawn to it, when I stood up again I felt the tight jeans and felt
almost aroused, but the tightness in the front reminded me that I
shouldn't be horny or it would hurt badly.
Again I sat and angry or not I ate everything. This woman could really
cook, and I complemented her for the variety and the exquisite mix of
flavors, she thanked me and told me that she could teach me that a Lady
should know her way around the Kitchen, that made me angrier "Go and
make the perfect housewife out of somebody else" I said, so I started
to go out of the Kitchen, when she called me: "Se?ora," I was surprised
that I turned around but I did. "At night all the staff (except the
guards of course) retires to the help quarters in another house at the
back of the state, we are tired and we think there is going to be a
storm, do you need anything? Can we retire for the night?" I was a
little surprised she was asking for my permission, but she was only a
maid, my situation wasn't her fault and my alleged ranking made me her
superior so I let them go for the night also I'm not used to be with so
many people around me so I was relieved to see them go.
I let the staff go and saw the dark clouds in the horizon, it wasn't
really late, it was about six in the afternoon but it looked like the
whole world was about to come in an end because it was almost black
outside. I felt a little cold and thought about the manly way of
getting warm: I went into the Kitchen and started to drink directly
from the bottle of Tequila, I didn't even had a glass of soda or lime
wedges so I sat in the living room drinking until it was pitch dark, I
didn't even turned on the lights.
About two hours later the sky was illuminated by so many lightning
bolts that everything looked like a mix of black and silver, the rain
wasn't falling yet, but it was a sure bet that it would come pouring in
a very short while, by that time I was slightly drunk and that's when
you feel strong, and clever, but in reality you are only stupid. That's
when I thought I could scape, I could probably sneak pass the guards
and reach the outside, the darkness and rain would be on my side, of
course I looked silly in those clothes but maybe a cop could help me if
I explained everything. I drank a mouthful of Tequila (liquid courage)
and tried the kitchen door, it was obviously not locked and I was in
the back lawn, it was starting to get cold and I cursed because I had
very little clothing, but I was committed to scape "I'm a pig you old
hag" I muttered thinking in the parable from the afternoon, it was now
or never (or so I thought).
Using the shadows and the landscape I could almost get to the gate, I
could see both of the guards, they were smoking and at ease they
weren't fazed by the weather, you have to give them credit; they knew
they had rough night coming but looked fearless, relaxed and even
chatty.
I could hear them taking about the Soccer match they would probably
been missing by being on duty that night, I slipped near them and used
my best "Solid snake" skills and made it all the way to the fence, I
was a shadow...
When I got there I saw it was locked and had a "Warning: Electric
fence" sign, of course it couldn't have been that easy, just in that
moment the rain started pouring down, it was thick and in seconds I was
soaked, a lightning struck and one of the guards saw me. "Hey" he
shouted. "this is dangerous, go back inside," fear filled me almost
instantly and in an irrational thinking (drunken state) I ran back to
the front door, at this moment I was VERY drunk and even though I
believed that I was a great runner I was just making a fool of myself;
the guard (Jos? now I know) followed me and watched how I fell directly
into the pool, if I hadn't been so drunk I could swim but I almost
drown, He reached and took me out of the pool even though I was a
prisoner I was very grateful for his bravery.
He reached me and almost at once he took me out, He's a strong man so
it was an easy task for him also I was almost passed out so he picked
me up like a rag doll. It's important to say that I'm not a very big
man I'm about 5 and a half feet tall and couldn't weight more than 120
pounds my meals had always been erratic so I'm very thin and short.
He carried me inside directly to the main bedroom sat me in the toilet
and started the hot water in the tub. "Come on Se?ora, I won't peek
take off that wet clothes and get in." I don't know if it was because
of the Tequila, the rain, or the authority he projected, but I did it,
I went straight into the tub and left all the wet clothes in the floor.
"I'm going now, I have to change too, I will leave dry sleeping clothes
in the bed, be a good girl and sober up I'll see you tomorrow." I
finished my bath and felt a little better, mostly I was embarrassed for
a very dumb situation, the long bath made me feel better, but it didn't
completely erased the drunkenness.
I got out of the bath, dried with a clean pink towel and got into the
room in the bed there was a beautiful black silk long nightgown and a
thong, I saw it for a while and remembered that nobody laughed or
commented anything about my ridiculous outfit so I stood there for a
moment and was about to put the flimsy clothes on, but decided that it
was just too damn weird so I just threw it in the floor and went in the
covers again naked, I fell asleep almost instantly, I was very drunk
but not enough to do something that silly.
Day 3
Again I overslept, it was very cold in the morning; surely an
aftereffect of last night storm, also I remembered that I was sleeping
naked, something I had never been able to do because I get cold very
easily, so I wrapped myself in the purple satin bed sheet and walked to
the closet, were I would choose again something stupid to wear, but
first I really needed to shave, I looked like a bum and it was even
weirder to be a bum with tight girly jeans.
The bathroom of course had enough razors for the face and for the rest
of the body, I took a quick shower and looked a little better, then
looked for the other jeans I saw folded yesterday. Only that any of
them were really jeans, the first remaining pair were denim colored
leggings, and the other two were capris, one that barely passed the
knee, the other even smaller. In the back there were other leggings of
different designs and colors and some shorts in different fabrics, but
that was it, I was out of pants and thanks to my "Rainy night stroll"
the only pair of jeans was soaking wet in the bathroom floor, also the
tennis shoes looked like they were never going to recover from the rain
and the pool they were soaked and even smelled bad there was even a
little pond of water were I had left them yesterday, I picked them up
and took them to the balcony so the sun could dry them, but it was so
cloudy that in looked like a long shot. Maybe I could ask Mrs. L to get
them into the drier, but first I had to dress something. So what is
going to be: To look like a pervert with tights or like a dork with
small over the knee shapely pants; reluctantly I decided the leggings
would be a little less stupid, but this time I needed underwear because
my penis was very bruised by the denim and I didn't think I could stand
something that tight again without the proper undergarment. Everything
was spandex or lacy, soft or flimsy, seriously there wasn't any piece
of clothing that didn't scream girly, I decided for a pair that was a
spandex "Boy cut" (what a bunch of ironic bull's shit) that shaped my
butt in a really sexy matter and even though I didn't care about it
kept my package in place, then I put on the leggings and was astonished
at how feminine my legs looked, I even looked like an average girl, I
can't believe how much help girls have at looking great! The clothes do
a lot of work in making a girl desirable and this was proof of it, here
I was with only two pieces of fabric looking very good and because of
the underwear there wasn't even a hint of my penis through the pants,
hell it was even comfortable, if I was going to wear this kind of
clothing I might try it again.
Now it was time for a blouse... yes a blouse I had to admit in the closet
there weren't shirts, there were still some tight small sleeved t-
shirts but it was chilly and wanted to use something with long sleeves,
so I took three different blouses and tried them on. First there was
this emerald green made of something like gauze, it wasn't sheer and it
was light, but the whole outfit seemed odd, blue leggings and green
blouse just didn't seem right, later I tried a white tight cotton
crossed blouse, but it had a small cleavage and just looked weird even
with my three or four chest hairs, finally I tried a black loose fit
blouse with some sequin decorations in the neck and cuffs it was little
better.
Shoes came later, I looked for the tennis shoes for about 10 seconds
when I remembered last night and that how they would be unwearable for
at least today, so if I had to use girl's shoes I had to look for
comfort, there were at least 4 pairs of flats and I decided for a Tommy
Hilghfiger pair with a grey and black checkered pattern and shiny black
rounded toe decorated with a small bow, I was stunned by thinking the
whole ensemble looked really neat on me and lots of girls couldn't look
this good even on purpose.
Before I mustered enough courage to go downstairs, I sat down and I
tried to remember everything that happened the night before, it had
been a very stupid idea, I could have gotten killed by the guards or
drowned in the pool because of my ethylic state, but now that I was a
little less upset and I had understood how things in the house worked I
started to think about my situation.
First I didn't know where I was, I could be miles from civilization, I
hadn't walked the entirety of the grounds and I didn't know the layout
of the state, if I contacted someone outside the house they could be
colluded with the Romeros, I have seen yesterday Jimmy (the driver) go
for errands to the town and he had been out for at least 2 hours so if
it was a quick trip the nearest town could be from 30 to 60 miles
depending on the road quality. I also knew the Romeros were very
powerful and usually people from the local villages were on their
payroll, if I ever got out I could say I was forced by someone else.
So for the time being I have no life in the outside, my family is not
looking for me, everybody in (possibly) miles would be working for my
captor, I don't have any money or a Job.
For the time being my rational mind couldn't find a way out, I was
screwed, but at the end of the month if everything was the way Norberto
wanted I would be literally fucked.
I went downstairs a little worried about my look, but somehow I knew I
wasn't going to be mocked or ridiculed, when I entered in the Kitchen
there was everybody and I wanted to drop dead just then; Mrs. L and
Maria (the house maid) were serving breakfast for Jimmy the driver and
errand boy, both of the guard teams, four people of the six of them
available, At the moment I saw all this people I wanted to turn around
and run, but just froze in my spot until Mrs. L?pez turned around and
saw me, she watched me closely and almost instantly said "Wow you look
lovely this morning Se?ora, you certainly put some effort in it today"
everybody turned at me and there were even some nods of approval, two
of them smiled at me in a completely natural way and Maria even giggled
in delight.
At this point this made me think how clothing is a convention, a
doctor's coat in a movie theater is out of place, but I could wear one
in a hospital and don't raise any suspicion even though I know shit
about medicine, of course at this time wearing girls clothes was still
odd, but it was expected of me so nobody made a fuzz, this was very
strange, but I have to thank this fine people for being so supportive
in a situation that was obviously imposed to me and should be weird for
them as well.
Not knowing what else to do and not being snobbish with other people I
sat down to share my meal with all this people.
I had a great time, I entirely forgot about my plight and got into the
life of this people, most of them had families and came to this line of
work because everything else is very underpaid, other had been helped
by the Romero's in dire times and stuck with them, but every one of
them had an unshakeable faith in their boss even if he hadn't even
turned 30 yet, we joked around had coffee and pan dulce (sweet
pastries, common bakery for Mexican families) the only odd moment came
when the men talked with double meaning albures (very common in male
bonding throughout Mexican culture) and when I tried to reply they saw
me like I shouldn't talk like that it was not Ladylike.
When we finished, Mrs. L asked me, "What will you be doing today
Ma'am?" "I really hadn't thought about it I've spend the last two days
fuzzing and hadn't done anything, If I'm going to be secluded here I
might as well enjoy it." "That's the spirit girl, Mr. Romero made a lot
of arrangements so you could have a good time, so enjoy your stay." At
the mention of Norberto I became angry, but it was a short lived
outburst and again thought about the Housekeeper question. Considering
the time being I was unemployed and Norberto assured me that if I
played along my family was going to be Ok so I didn't have to worry
about my Mom and siblings, so the question came to me again, what
should I do today?
It was like a strange veil would lift from my eyes, for the first time
in YEARS I had unlimited amount of free time. Since I finished High
School I have had to work even on summers to pay my stay through the
University and I landed in my first job about three months before
graduating so I hadn't have more than two or three days off in more
than 9 eight years, what should I do? No let me rephrase that, what
would I do?
I stood up and my legs brushed together making me feel the softness of
the fabric, it was an unexpected, sexy feeling and made me remember
what I was wearing, but for the first time it wasn't important, that
was the moment in which I decided to play along, my methodical mind
even started to think how I could pull it off, wearing comfortable
things and just enjoy my free time, later on I could deal with Norberto
and find a way out. So I decided to let myself go and just enjoy the
good things that were laid in front of me the free time, the
videogames, the library. I went to the TV room and asked for a coke, I
turned it on and thought I could drone out for some time, hell I hadn't
watch a full T.V. show in months I might as well start now.
I tried a lot of shows and movies not finishing any and nothing grabbed
my attention, but was slightly surprised that I watched a little more
closely at the outfits worn by the actresses, I mentally got some notes
and dismissed them when I realized that I was thinking about how to
wear and combine skirts, dresses and heels, or thinking how would I
look with this or that.
After three or four hours I was really bored, I couldn't remember what
it was like to watch the T.V. just like a mindless Zombie, I was a
hardworking man and I couldn't remember a time when I could just stare
in front of a screen and drool my days away, well except with Video
games so maybe I could try that later.
Again I reflected on my just found free time and tried some Video
games, there was the new Assassin's Creed and I was eager to play it,
but it wasn't as satisfying when your body thinks you haven't earned
the rest.
After lunch I asked if I could explore the grounds a little, that I
felt a little cooped in the house, in the back of my mind I knew I had
a better chance at escaping if I knew the place. Mrs. L raised a two
way radio and called Jose, she explained that he was going to be my
guide, but I knew better that he was going to be my guard.
Jose was a very tall, very strong man in his early twenties, he was
very friendly, but kept his distance, he showed me the grounds at the
front of the house and even joked about how I looked all drunk inside
the pool, this made me feel a little embarrassed, but surprisingly
didn't feel angry. The grounds were even bigger than I thought, the
front lawn was exquisite with many trees and flowers, neat trimmed
grass and a paved road for the vehicles also a little walking path all
the way to the fence. Lopsided to the west there was the pool, how
could I missed it yesterday it was Olympic size! I could only blame the
darkness, the alcohol and the stupidity.
The back grounds were even more majestic, there was a very big house
that must be the workers quarters and the garage there was an S.U.V. a
Mercedes a Porsche and another Sports Car that I didn't even knew the
model, but it looked fast, expensive and European. Behind that was a
garden with palm trees, tropical flowers and a lawn for about 500
yards, Gabriel the gardener really knew his stuff.
When we reached the end of this part I could see a small cliff of about
40 feet tall and stairs carved and constructed directly in the stone
with a firm handrail, it went down directly into a secluded private
beach, it was imposing, I realized that this place must have cost a
fortune, we only saw it from above we didn't go down to the beach. When
we were getting back I was exhausted, I was very used to walk, but I
had never done it with women's shoes and even though they were
comfortable all that walking in grass made my feet sore, I really
wanted Tennis shoes for tomorrow.
There were still between 200 and 150 feet to go when I couldn't give
another step, I asked Jose if we could sit there in the grass for a
moment and he was about to agree, when he said, it's going to rain we
better hurry, I could lift you if you want, I was really tired but even
though I was wearing women's clothing I didn't want that role so I
stood up and forced myself the rest of the way.
There was a slight rain when we got into the house, we were a little
wet but not much, Maria received us in the front porch with two towels,
Jose said goodbye and told me that maybe later we could go to the
beach, I was satisfied with today's walk and I told him that I'll
consider it.
The towel was enough so I didn't change the clothes I asked Maria if
she could bring me a sweater because I was a little cold and maybe I
could light the fireplace, she brought a blue open sweater with lace in
the back it was nice and matched with the blue denim like leggings, I
just put it on and went to the kitchen to grab a bite.
That night was very cold and I looked for any Pajamas with pants, I
found a yellowish silk two piece that was very soft to the touch and
immediately gave me an erection, I was a little surprised that I felt
that way but didn't think about it lot about it and hastily masturbated
until I came, the pants got all smeared and had to change into
something very similar but pink, by this time I started not to care
about the color of my clothes.
Day 4
Sun light poured in from the balcony window, I was getting used to the
cloudy days; it looked like it was going to be a scorcher as I was
already sweating and it should be about 8 in the morning.
I had a great night sleep and remembered everything when the silky
pj's pants rubbed against my crotch, it sent electric feelings and I
was immediately aroused, I had to take care of that boner just then and
there, the feeling of the fabric was just magnetic and indulged myself
entirely in the feelings it gave me, I must have dropped like 30
ounces of cum into the clothes and linen.
After some time I got up still aroused to my wobbling feet and got
cleaned in the bathroom, took a long shower and shaved, the day before
I understood that beard was very unsettling in my appearance, after my
cleaning session I went to the closet and found myself surprised that I
was a little eager to try new things, but dismissed it almost instantly
because of the weirdness it implied. People here treated me with
respect and even servitude, I liked it a lot, the only problem was that
I had to be "Lady of the House" to achieve this power position. Pants
were still on my mind and chose another "Boy cut" style of panties,
those were comfortable, later again I picked a pair of leggings, this
time they had a "Houndstooth" Pattern (I learned that word yesterday
while watching TV) and looked good on me, but the moment I had them on
I realized I was making a BIG mistake, the fabric was thick and very
hot and I couldn't stand it in this weather, maybe turning the A/C at
max I could wear them but that would mean to stay in the same room all
day, so I took them off and was at square one on what to wear, just
like the first day.
I checked again what kind of pants were available, the Jeans weren't
here so they must've been in some washing room I hadn't seen, that left
me with the unbearable warm leggings and the Capris, so the second pair
was the only logical option, I put them on and even with my narrow man
shaped hips my ass looked really hot, I looked like a model, by this
time I was getting used to wear really tight pants and my package
started being at ease with it, the problem were my ankles, these were
in plain sight and looked awful because of my hairy legs, ok I didn't
chose to use a women's attire, but being things the way they were I
couldn't get used to look at my legs that way.
I finished dressing with a lacy baby blue spaghetti strap top, but
again was upset by the hairy armpits. Should I shave my body? I really
wasn't keen on it, but maybe if I can muster some courage I could ask
Mrs. L or Maria for their advice.
I went for the tennis shoes in the balcony but as it rained all night
they were still wet or even more so, I tried other pair of flats, but
then decided to use pink flip flops with a flower as decoration because
heat was too much for that kind of shoes.
After breakfast I noted that Mrs. L was staring at my calves and I knew
exactly what was on her mind. I decided to ask anyway. "Mrs. L, do you
want to tell me anything... Something on your mind?" She looked at me not
sure how to answer, but nevertheless she said, "Ay Se?ora, You chose
such a beautiful outfit, but something is not right, I'm pretty sure
