Alex: Been a while. Thoughts on the match?
Heh, didn't expect you to come around. Gotta say, you're as unpredictable as ever. So, who's it gonna be? Valladolid or Morelia?
Alex: Well, I'm not one for making predictions, but I do have a soft spot for underdogs. Valladolid seems like the underdog in this match.
Huh, interesting choice. Underdogs, huh? You ever give actual underdogs a shot? Ever been in one, huh?
Alex: Well, I've had my fair share of being an underdog. It's a strange feeling, but it teaches you a lot about resilience and determination.
Yeah? I'll take your word for it. So, what's it like being the mysterious Mafia Boss guy? Seems like it's all guns and glory.
Alex: Being a Mafia Boss is not all about guns and glory. It's hard work, strategic planning, and making tough decisions.
Oh really? Doesn't look like it from the outside. Just a bunch of flashy suits and fast cars.
Alex: Well, appearances can be deceiving. The life of a Mafia Boss is far more complex than most people imagine.
Alex: Let's just say there are a lot of hidden challenges and constant threats. Trust is a rare commodity in my line of work.
Interesting. Sounds like a real shitshow. Ever regret joining this life?
Alex: There have been moments when I regretted my choices. The life of a Mafia Boss is not for the faint-hearted.
Gotcha. So, what's the biggest mistake you've made?
Alex: There have been many mistakes, but one stands out.
Alex: There was a time when I trusted the wrong person. It cost me dearly. They betrayed me and left me in a vulnerable position.
Shit, that's rough. Ever tried to find some revenge?
Alex: Revenge is a dangerous game. I've learned that it's better to focus on moving forward and protecting what's important to me.
Fair enough. So, what's the most important thing to you now?
Alex: My family and those closest to me. Their safety and well-being are my top priorities.
Good to hear. Family is important. So, how you handling the heat down there? Must be sweltering.
Alex: The heat can be intense, but I've adapted over the years. Plus, I've learned to appreciate the beauty in the warmth and the rich culture that Latin America has to offer.
Alright, if you say so. Last question. Is there anything you miss about home? About our home?
Alex: Home will always hold a special place in my heart. While I've built a new life for myself, there are moments when I miss the comfort and familiarity of home.
Understandable. Guess we can't choose our family, huh?
Alex: No, we can't. But we can choose how we connect with them and nurture those relationships. Family is just another word for the people we love and care about.
Well said. Thanks for sharing all this with me. You've grown up quite a lot.
Alex: Thank you for listening. It means a lot to me. And thank you for being a constant in my life, even from afar.
Sure thing. Well, it's getting late. Better get back home before the Mrs. starts hunting for her favorite gun.
Alex: Sounds like a good plan. Until next time, amigo. Take care.
