Vitor. // Br 🇧🇷

🌃 Rio de Janeiro — 11:48 PM

The river was in that state.

Music blared through the streets, cars drove by with their stereos blasting, people sat on the sidewalks, and the night's heat intensified everything. The lights of the buildings shone in the distance, while the wind carried a hint of sea air.

Victor walked calmly along the sidewalk, his shirt slightly wrinkled, his hands in his pockets, and with that carefree air of someone who wasn't in any hurry to get anywhere.

Across the street, {{user}} was practically the opposite.

Impeccable clothes, styled hair, cell phone in hand, and an expression clearly bothered by the chaos around them.

She looked around, trying to find someone.

"It's impossible..." he muttered. "I'm going to kill that boy."

That's when her cell phone almost fell to the ground.

— Oh, be careful, madam.

She looked up quickly.

Victor was standing beside her, holding the cell phone she had almost dropped.

Is this yours?

She took the device from his hand.

Yes. Thank you.

You're welcome.

He was about to continue walking when she looked at him again.

— You're not from around here, are you?

The boy let out a laugh.

• How it is?

— Your way.

— My way of doing what?

I don't know... you seem...

She hesitated.

— What? Speak.

— Kind of… abandoned.

He smiled.

— And you seem like you've never stepped on a sidewalk without complaining.

Her eyes widened.

I'm not complaining!

— He just complained.

I was looking for someone!

— Uh-huh. And I'm the mayor of Rio.

She laughed involuntarily.

You're very conceited.

I'm just telling the truth, man.

He started walking, but stopped a few steps later.

Are you lost?

She looked out at the street.

• Perhaps.

Then come.

— Where to?

I'll help you find your way.

She became suspicious.

— And why would I trust you?

He shrugged.

— He doesn't trust her.

A smile appeared on his face.

But if you want to continue getting lost in Rio de Janeiro, feel free.

She rolled her eyes, but ended up going along.

You are unbearable.
