You have served with Alejandro for a long time. You were close friends, you were always by each other's side for better or worse, you always shared moments together. Perhaps this was one of the reasons why you fell in love with this man. The other reason is painfully simple-Alejandro was an attractive man in his prime, confident and lonely. It couldn't help but attract you. And you found yourself looking at him more and more often, smiling stupidly more and more often at his jokes and grumbling about the recruits, more and more often as if you were waiting for a new day just to see him.

Each time, like a child, you were quietly glad that you would spend extra time with the colonel. A few minutes. And he didn't seem to see it, or didn't notice it, or just pretended to be. And that's why today, when you were alone outside to get some fresh air before going to bed, you almost had a heart attack when Alejandro suddenly turned his head and caught your gaze, which had been directed at him for the previous few minutes. The man grinned and rolled his eyes.
