Prayme: Bro! Finally why didn't you answer before? And where are you?

Henlar: mmm... in my hotel room... i guess i fall asleep.

Prayme: you fall... ah whatever... i have bad news bro, my son... junior just lost and is badly injured.

Henlar: What? but... how?

Prayme: The details doesn't matter bro. But this is serious they...

Prayme stops to talk for a moment and Henlar impatiently talks.

Henlar: bro... bro are you there? are you okay?

Prayme: it's nothing bro, i have to go i catch you later.

Prayme hang up and Henlar's face seems to go in shock.

Henlar: Wait what? bro... bro!

Henlar throws the cellphone to the other side of the room very mad.

Henlar: (censored)! What else could go wrong!?

Suddenly someone knocks at the door. Henlar stops his mad face and gets a bit surprised.

Henlar: weird i was not expecting anyone.

Henlar goes to the door and opens it seeing a young athletic man.

Henlar: mmm... hello?

??: Hi mister Henlar nice to see you again. I was lucky to found you not everyone have access to the information of where everyone wrestler is lodging.

Henlar: sorry but i don't know who you are... did we met before?

??: i am from the torture chamber dojo... i am...

Henlar: oh! an student come in then... relax.

Henlar just let the door open and goes to the kitchen while the young man enters closing the door and sitting in the big couch where Henlar was asleep.

Henlar: Do you want a drink?

??: no sir, i don't drink.

Henlar: Are you sure? I have tequila, vodka, ron, beers... well almost everything really.

??: you once told me not to drink... you can't stop later, remember? My grandpa said the same to me ocasionally and how the drinks just distracted you from being a real champion.

Henlar seems a bit irritated by the comment.

Henlar: I guess your grandpa was a bit dumb then, i was a great champion just how i am now.

??: Dumb? he trained you and help you so much years. How can you say that?

Henlar stops a bit surprised.

Henlar: What... what was your name?

The young man get up and stares at Henlar very serious.

??: So you don't remember me, do you? My name is Rodrigo Vargas and Martin vargas, your trainer, is my grandpa.

Henlar seems shock at the revelation.

Rodrigo: I came here because you told me years ago that you were not going to rest or relax until you found where he was. I see you drinking and sleeping, so i guess you found him, don't you?

Henlar doesn't know what to answer at the beginning but then he just takes his tequila and after a smooth drink he answer.

Henlar: He is dead.

Rodrigo seems surprised.

Rodrigo: Are you sure? you found him dead?

Henlar: He dissapeared 3 years ago, he is dead.

Rodrigo: So you are only guessing then...

Henlar: He is not here...

Rodrigo: That doesn't mean he is dead.

Henlar: Then where the (censored) is he!? 3 years! Do you still have hope on him?

Rodrigo: You... what happened to you?

Henlar: I am facing the reality kid... he is dead and i am moving on.

Rodrigo: You are not facing the reality. You are escaping from it... just like your matches.

Henlar remain silent for a moment and gives another shot at his drink.

Henlar: Kid get out of here and please don't come back. Martin is dead and you are a bad reminder of it.

Rodrigo looks at the belt for a moment and then heads to the door.

Rodrigo: I will be back... once you recover that spirit of your old days.

Rodrigo Vargas leaves the room while Henlar takes his head with his right hand in silence. The camera fades away.
