È il primo giorno di Pedro. Riceve una scrivania. Riceve un computer portatile. Tutti vanno a una riunione.
La scrivania è pulita. C'è una tazza bianca. Pensa: forse è un regalo. Ha sete.
Pedro va in cucina. Riempie la tazza con l'acqua. Si siede. Un uomo con la barba sta alla porta.
"Prima questa era la mia scrivania," dice. Sorride. "Sono Diego. Benvenuto."
La faccia di Pedro diventa rossa. Restituisce la tazza. Diego ride. "Tienila," dice. "Ma chiedi della macchina del caffè."
Più tardi, Diego gli mostra la macchina del caffè. Ci vogliono dieci minuti.
That's the story.
