"Jesus lord! Look who just arrived and the way he looks!" Guggi said in the middle of the dinner with Eli and the band with their partners in the vineyards house
"What a style there!" Larry said
"How sexy darling" Eli said winking at him
"Don't tell me you fucked Tango and now you have a new life as a gay man" Adam said as all of them laughed
"I know you since you're 3. Your face tells me that you fucked Tango and that smile tells me Tango it's a she" Guggi said, as Bono just covered his face with his hands. His hair was cut, very short, his beard was now tidy, he had new sunglasses and a beret.

"You are all 3 years old. And by the way I signed a contract and can't say anything about it" Bono said smiling
"You look 10 years younger mate!" Edge said surprised "And a bit skinny as well" he added
"Jesus, seems Tango did good to you..." Adam said "But guys, he signed a contract, so we'll never know"
"We did a song together and then I got a haircut and got some stuff for the wedding. That's it. Didn't you all begged me for that??" Bono said
"So tell us, how was it?" Eli asked "I know you signed a contract, but is it a good song, is Tango talented how did you feel?"
"The lyrics are one of the best I've ever seen. And yes, Tango's very talented and kind. And very, very mysterious" Bono said. He told them the story of how Tango drove him to the studio without him knowing she was Tango. And that they both opened up a lot about their feelings and life. He wanted to tell them everything, just like a kid does when he's exited, but he controlled himself not only because of the contract, but also for the respect he had for Tango as an artist and a person.
"Did you ask why did he picked you up out of everyone?" Edge asked
"Tango said because I was the special person she was looking for a special song" Bono answered
"It's a SHEE!!!" Guggi shouted "Gavin, pay the bet you bitch"
"Holy shit!" Edge said surprised since in the whole industry everyone said Tango was a man
"Fuck" Bono cursed quietly
"I knew it, I knew it! She wanted to fuck him, so that's why she picked him!" Gavin said "Tell me you did, please"
"Shut up Gavin" Bono said "We just worked in the studio and told our personal shit. I showed my lyrics and she did the same with hers. She's very talented, and I haven't seen someone as talented as her since a long time. We respect each other, as artist and as persons. She even saw us last year in Cologne"
"Holy shit" Edge kept on surprised about her, he admired her music and lyrics a lot, and now it was even more attractive that she was a woman. He didn't even know why...
"You know that I didn't want to talk about it!! I knew I was going to fuck things up! Please, keep this between us, cause I signed a contract and respect her decision to still be under the spotlight. She's been great and kind with me, so the least I can do for her is to keep my promise"
"It's ok mate. We're not gonna say anything, this stays just between us" Gavin said, leaning over Bono's shoulder
"When is the song going out?" Edge said, the only one interested in the music, as always
"Don't know. Someone will let me know I guess, but I think soon, since the song is already perfect... But let's talk about the important thing. Are you ready for tomorrow evening??" Bono asked looking at Guggi and Eli
"No!" They both said and everyone laughed, included both of them
Suddenly all the laughter stopped. After the sound of the door being close, someone's figure appeared in the big kitchen followed by the silence and the look of all the presents.
"Sorry to interrupt. Just passed by to see if everything is going ok" She said giving a little smile to Eli and avoiding other eye contact
"It's great. We are very comfortable, just like at home. Again, thanks for everything" Eli said as Guggi remained silent
"It's the least I can do" she said with a very little smile on her face "Keep it up then. Whatever you need, just let me know" said as she walked to the door
Everyone remained silent for a bit, looking at Bono's face to see his reaction after almost a year without seeing her. He had a poker face, that one that's hard to read. But then Guggi started making jokes so everyone forgot about the "interruption" and stopped staring at Bono's to see his reaction. Things went back to normal and after sometime everyone went to sleep to charge energies for the big day.
Bono laid down in bed and stared at the ceiling thinking that he felt nothing when Sun appeared. She looked different, very different, different as his feelings for her; Not love, nor regret, not hate nor kindness. Just nothing. Maybe it was a signal that he finally got over her, and that was good news. But maybe there was a sign that someone mysterious was on his mind. Someone that called his attention. Someone that not only understands his world of words, but also lives in it. Maybe it was time to move on
