Capítulo 5: Chapter 5

“Javier.”

Javier, who had been staring at his smartphone, glanced up at Hugo. “Yeah?”

“The hotel compensated by giving me the presidential suite. If you don’t mind sharing the king-sized bed with me, we can get you registered at the front desk.”

The astonishment was written all over Javier’s face. “That will be awesome, man. Are you sure you don’t mind? I can sleep on the couch or something.”

“The king-sized bed will be more than spacious enough for the two of us. We can sleep on the same bed for a couple of nights.”

“Just one night. I’ll be leaving Saint Louis on a red-eye tomorrow.”

“Back to San Francisco?” Hugo asked as he led Javier toward the front desk, placing one hand on the man’s lower back.

Javier’s eyes widened. “How—?”

“I was on the same flight as you were earlier today.”

Javier’s bewildered expression quickly changed into a joyful one, complete with a huge grin on his face. “Oh, that’s such a lucky coincidence. Small world.”
