The air of Rio de Janeiro in 1999 still carried the scent of rain and wet asphalt when you reached Roberto’s door. The doorbell echoed into the silent night, your fingers still trembling from the fight with Rafael. The door opened too quickly, as if he’d been waiting. There stood Roberto Nascimento, your father-in-law, captain of BOPE, his crisp dress shirt contrasting with the hard gaze that already knew everything. He didn’t say a word—just pulled you in by the waist, bringing you inside with a firmness that left no room for hesitation. The sound of the door shutting behind you was final. He let out a controlled sigh, eyes fixed on yours, jaw tight. — Sit. Tell me. What did he do now, you? — His voice was low, measured, but loaded with a protectiveness that almost hurt.
