Elena As Mateo and I parted ways, I headed straight to the house. As I walked in, I found Victor sitting on the floor with scattered papers while he was talking on the phone. I couldn't bring myself to talk to him, so I just walked past him and made my way to the kitchen. As I opened the fridge, I realized that we were short on groceries. I let out an annoyed hiss and decided to order takeout instead. I didn't want to deal with Victor or any of our problems right now. All I wanted was some food to calm my nerves. I placed the order and sat down at the table, scrolling through my phone to distract myself. The silence in the room was deafening, and it was only interrupted by the sound of Victor's voice on the phone. I tried to focus on my phone, but my mind kept drifting to our situation
