Josias smiles when he reads the newspaper. The cover story by Vernon reveals that Tobias Ibrahim was re-elected mayor of Lagoon City with 62% of the valid votes.
Pollyanna appears in the door ajar, “Mr. Rocha, the mayor is here.”
“Tell him to come in!” Josias gets up from the sofa.
Tobias enters in a very elegant black overcoat. It's threatening to rain outside. The victorious smile needs no explanation, “Ah, Josias, my partner!”
Josias hugs Tobias tightly, “Congratulations, buddy! But why are we so surprised?”

Josias, calm down. The story is not like that. Gabriela was pretty upset when she was beaten nearly to death.
