After dinner, I found Elena engrossed in a conversation with Sophie. She looked happy, laughing and chatting freely, but a pang of jealousy hit me. Sophie was her best friend, and I knew they had a special bond, but I couldn’t help feeling envious that Sophie was getting more of Elena's time than I was.
Deciding not to intrude on their time together, I figured I could use the opportunity to get some work done. Since Elena was occupied, I called Marco and asked him to gather more details on the situation with the Mexicans. I left the house and headed over to Marco’s place so we could discuss everything in detail.
