Benicio I should be back in the city, sí.

[camille de vries]

CAMI gracias. you can bring the flowers to JFK.

[benicio otero]

Benicio Vale. Are we good now?

[camille de vries]

CAMI We've been fine, Beni. I'm allowed to be sad about things but I will survive.

[benicio otero]

Benicio How can I make you less sad?

[camille de vries]

CAMI You can enjoy your cousin's birthday and send me photos of the sunset. I will very much enjoy getting high in Amsterdam for a day, we both win some battles.

[benicio otero]

Benicio Hm ok. I tried. Are you excited for it?

[camille de vries]

CAMI You have four days now to try harder 🖤 I actually haven't been in a while, so yes. I like riding bikes all over the city there and eating lots of poffertjes. I wish the tulips were out though.

[benicio otero]

Benicio Thanks for the extra time. That's good, it looks interesting there. Something about a joint in the morning at a cafe sounds very nice.

[camille de vries]

CAMI I have faith in you, mi amor! I know, right? And a stroopwafel. I will bring some back, they are dangerous too.

[benicio otero]

Benicio It's almost the holidays, time for the sweets. They will be good with my sister's coquito, I'll convince her to make some early just for this.

[camille de vries]

CAMI actually, what do you do for the holidays?

[benicio otero]

Benicio I'm usually here for a month until Día de Los Reyes. Are you normally any place?

[camille de vries]

CAMI A whole month! I try to go back to Spain, we do La Nochebuena with mis abuelos and do some gifts still. I like to do New Year's somewhere different though every year, find a new part of the world to start a new year in, but have to do the 12 grapes. That is my favorite tradition.

Benicio Does that make your head want to explode? It's fun, you should try it. We do that too, it's even better with all the niños. My parents and grandparents are here, easier to get my siblings here than the other way around. Come to PR for new year's, we can have the grapes.
