Mauricio didn’t move.
Didn’t speak.
Didn’t understand.
And I watched all of it.
From my phone.
Through the security cameras.
For the first time in days… I smiled.
Not out of revenge.
Out of recognition.
That moment wasn’t the end of anything.
It was the beginning of a version of me they had never prepared for.
And the worst part for them?
That was only the first move.
