La Casa de Papel (Palermo) // Translation

10. mujer amante

This moment, someone knocked at the door, Palermo let his hands on the jump suit of Velez which he couldn't take off. They stop kissing and Velez hugged Palermo so tight that he couldn't move. She laid her legs around his waist so he won't go away. Palermo knows that she is scared about that he would left her. He hugged her back so that she feels safe.

"Who's there?" Palermo asks.

"It's me" Denver said from the other side. Velez sighs.

"What's wrong Denver?" Palermo asks without letting go of Velez. He could feel her breathe on his neck.

"I just wanna tell you that I took care 'bout Tokyo." Palermo rolls his eyes. "But I can't find Velez."

"She's with me" he replied and Denver didn't said anything for a few seconds.

"Oh" Denver suddenly said.

"Sorry, see ya later" he said and left. Palermo and Velez still hugged each other for a few minutes. Without saying a word.

"Was it so hard saying that?" she asks, still not letting go of him.

"To be honest, yes" he replied not letting go of her. Velez smiled.

"Nairobi was right" Velez said, talking to herself.

"Don't remind me, I really wanna shoot her" he said and Velez giggled. They let go of each other and Palermo gave her a small kiss on the lips.

"What about, we're going to the caribbean? I've heard you like the beach" Velez asks and Palermo can see the illusion in her eyes. He just realized what he had done. Palermo sighs. Velez realized somethings wrong. "Whats wrong?"

"Look, Velez...." he began, searching for the right words. "...you're beautiful" he said and Velez smiled like crazy. "But I can't be with you." After this words Velez froze and didn't smiled anymore. "I mean it isn't like I don't want to. I really wanna be with you. But we're in the middle of a rob. Every deflection will make everything worst. Look at Rio and Tokyo" he said and looked right in her eyes. She just looked angry. "The best is to wait" he said and wiped her tears away. She looked at him angry, Palermo realized that too but he also knows that she won't hate him. But he knows he hurted her. "Hey, stop crying" he told her soft. "Say something." Velez looked away.

"I know your love is somewhere" she said and stood up without looking at Palermo. She got dressed again while crying quiet. She then left the room. She don't care if someone would see her crying. On her way she met Denver. A confused Denver.

"What happened to you?" he asks.

"What happened to you?" she asks and grabbed his jump suit.

"We lost connection to the professor. I think they arrested him and Lisbon" he said and Velez World broke down th second time in a few minutes.
