[hr]

	Alejandro ignored everything and anything that had to do with work during the daily morning work out. Mara continued to tell him about new stuff she had dug out about Nikki or their new friend Shannon. He didn't want to hear anything about them or the business for the rest of the weekend. Saturday was supposed to be his day off from work and any worries from the whole drug ring thing, but it was ruined by their new friend. Although, he did had to admit he liked their new friend despite everything that Mara was telling him now- which he was trying to ignore very very hard. 

	As long as Alejandro secured Sol under his family's name and business- the rest didn't matter. He had been successful so far. Before Sol, Huston had been his last conquer. The city had been riled with so many gangs and corrupt police that bringing it down to its knees before Alejandro had taken him quite a while. But as always, he came out on top. His sister had stayed behind to help keep Huston under their family's thumb, but she would have to move on soon and follow close behind him. 

	Before that, Alejandro had to make sure Sol was under his control. 

	[color=BC8F8F]"I'm not supposed to be thinking about this!"[/color] Alejandro groaned loudly as he dropped the weights he had been carrying on the ground, startling his personal trainer. [color=BC8F8F]"We're done for today. I need to get out."[/color]

	[color=gray]"Alejandro, we still need to discuss about you-"[/color] 

	[color=BC8F8F]"No, no we don't. Mara take the day off. John will be with me. Just go out and enjoy your day. Call your mother or your siblings. Just- just rest, okay?"[/color] Alejandro didn't let her finish. He didn't want to hear about it anymore. Just like she did, Alejandro had to keep his mind clear from it all. At least for one day. 

[hr]

	The two men arrived at The Coffee Pot just an hour after. Alejandro had dressed in black jeans, a gray hoodie, and a black coat over it to keep the chilly hair from making him freeze his ass off. He was not made for the cold one bit. Unlike John, who seemed perfectly fine in his usual black suit with only a black coat over his shoulders, Alejandro never understood how the hell could that man be perfectly fine in the searing hot and the freezing cold. 

	Alejandro guided John to the closest table to the counter, where he took a seat and glanced around the place. It was his first time in The Coffee Shop, and since John recommended the place, he had been okay with coming here. The place looked homey enough, and it wasn't cold like it was outside. Besides, the people here weren't so bad on the eyes. 

	[color=gray]"If you keep looking at the waiter, I might get jealous."[/color] John said as he pulled out his phone to look at the text message he had reieved from Mara. 

	[color=BC8F8F]"Shut up."[/color] Alejandro rolled his eyes and turned to look John with a smile. [color=BC8F8F]"You're not the jealous type."[/color] He took John's phone and turned off the screen. [color=BC8F8F]"However, I am. Stop texting Mara and pay attention to me."[/color]

	John gave Alejandro a glare before taking his phone back and looking at the waiter with the silver hair. [color=gray]"He is cuter than you."[/color]

	[color=BC8F8F]"Rude."[/color] Alejandro huffed and looked back at the waiter too. [color=BC8F8F]"I'm hungry. I could go with some pancakes. Or cake. Or some of that as- Ouch!"[/color] He couldn't finish due to John;s fist meeting his head in a not so gentle manner.

	[color=gray]"Stop talking."[/color] John said as he stood up to take two menus. The faster they got their breakfast, the faster they could get out, and Alejandro ould stop talking about eating [i]cake[/i]. With that, he waved down the waiter with the silver hair to take their order.
