Thanks to Lucas’s friends, Pablo and Roberto—also his track teammates, with whom he had built a strong friendship through sports over the years—the group took on a new direction.
At this point, the group dynamic looked like this:
- Marcos, desperately looking for romance.
- Jorge, supposedly devastated over his recent breakup.
- Héctor, doing his own thing as usual.
- Daniel, consoling Jorge.
- Lucas, busy planning a getaway with Pablo and Roberto.
The group set off for Villa-Arriba, marking their first big shift. The second change came when they met some of Pablo’s friends, with whom they quickly developed a good relationship. Thanks to this, Marcos met his first fling—a girl named Alba, who was a saxophonist.
At first, everything seemed fine, but it didn’t last long. Shortly after, Alba told Marcos that he was "too soft" for her and that she needed someone with more passion and energy. She broke up with him just 15 days after they started dating. The only thing Marcos gained from the relationship was remaining friends with her—something he never managed with anyone else he dated.
During the 15 days of their relationship, Marcos completely disappeared, essentially abandoning his friends. When he finally came back, he excused himself by saying he had been very much in love and apologized profusely. This time, the group didn’t hold it against him because the period of his absence was so short that, in reality, none of them had even noticed.
