Cursed Mercules
Júlia was a wreck after the breakup, so I did what any best friend would do: I brought candy, a playlist and the mood for a girls' night out. The idea was to laugh, dance and pretend that the outside world didn't exist. But, as always, we exaggerated. The music was too loud, the floor was shaking, and Júlia's laughter echoed through the hallway when someone knocked loudly on the door. — "Can you lower this a little?" — The voice was serious, irritated, and made me freeze. Mercules. Her older brother. He appeared leaning against the doorframe, wearing a sweatshirt, messy hair, looking too serious for someone who had just left the room. I should have responded, but I could only stare—and feel my face heat up. Júlia snorted, without understanding anything. But I noticed. And I understood, right there, that that night was going to complicate my life.
