The faint click.
As I stepped outside the cemetery gates, my phone vibrated.
The signal was active.
That tiny movement…
would reveal everything.
I didn’t return home.
I couldn’t.
It was no longer mine.
Instead, I sat in a quiet café near Buenavista station, staring at my phone.
The vibration wasn’t random.
Inside Diego’s coat was a tracker.
One Eduardo had used during business trips.
I had taken it that morning without thinking too much.
Because deep down…
I knew something wasn’t right.
The app showed movement.
From the cemetery…
to the city center.
He wasn’t grieving.
He was moving forward.
I remembered something.
Eduardo’s office.
The safe hidden behind the painting.
And something else—
Weeks before he died, he had given me his email password.
And a number.
A safety deposit box.
“If anything strange happens,” he had said, “trust what I left outside the house.”
At the time, I thought he was being overly cautious.
Now I knew better.
I followed the signal.
It led me to a notary office.
Through the glass, I saw them.
Diego.
Ramírez.
And her.
Valeria.
Eduardo’s business partner.
The woman he always said was “just business.”
I didn’t go inside.
I watched.
Ramírez handed over documents.
Diego signed them.
Valeria smiled.
Like she had already won.
Then they left.
The tracker moved again.
Back toward my house.
I followed at a distance.
Watched them unlock the door.
Walk in.
Like everything belonged to them now.
I stayed outside.
My hands shaking.
Then I left.
Returned to the café.
Opened my laptop.
Logged into Eduardo’s email.
And found a message.
Scheduled.
For me.
“Mariana, if you’re reading this, Diego has tried to remove you. Do not sign anything. Go to box 317. Everything is there.”
