Where the hell have those documents gone?

I search through the other drawers and cabinets, but they’re nowhere to be found. Mario must’ve put them somewhere else.

Did he realize I was snooping?

When the door clicks, I quickly put away everything I misplaced and jump back into my seat right in time for him to come back inside.

“Oh …” he mutters, pointing at a pen that’s clearly not in the drawer anymore. “I thought I’d cleaned up the place before.”

“Sorry, I needed to write something down,” I lie.

It’s the only good thing I can come up with to cover for myself. And I hope he’ll believe it.

“For what?”

I stare at him, unable to form an answer. Instead, I pick up the special tea he made and chug it down in one go. It tastes awful and makes me want to puke, but I swallow it down with tears stinging my eyes.

“I just wanted to write something down that I want to say to Marcello. In case I forget,” I say in a moment of clarity.

“Oh, I see. I do that, too, sometimes.” He puts the pen away. “As an old man, you tend to forget the important things.” He chuckles, and I breathe a sigh of relief.

After putting my cup down, I get up and say, “Thanks for the tea. And the bandage. I should get back to my room now.” I clear my throat and walk toward the door. No point in staying if he hasn’t got what I need.

But as I open the door, he says, “I know you’ll eventually get what you want.”

I pause and take in his words. Does he know about my search? Or does he mean Marcello?

Cryptic.

Typical of Marcello … but Mario? Maybe I underestimated him.

But these final words prove he knows more than he lets on.

“Thanks,” I reply, and I leave before he tries to stop me.

But one thing’s for sure—they’re both hiding something from me, and I will find out what it is, even if it is the last thing I do on this earth.
