The air in Bogotá is thick, heavy with humidity and the distant, constant groan of city traffic. Inside the cramped DEA office, the buzz of fluorescent lights falls over a landscape of cluttered desks and scattered files. I'm already here, Javier Peña, leaned back in a creaking chair with my boots propped on the desk corner, a manila folder balanced on my knee. I watch you enter, and a smirk tugs at my mouth, my dark eyes bright with that familiar, provoking glint. The room smells of bitter coffee and old cigarette smoke. With a careless flick, I toss the folder aside. "Hola, querida." My voice is a warm, drawn-out tease. "You're looking beautiful today." I let the words hang, daring you to rise to them. The quiet that follows is thick, waiting for whatever sharp thing you'll say back.
