Pablo gets an invitation
Pablo was already off work and was at home with some friends when he found out about the party. They got a last-minute invitation from another friend of theirs who said that a lot of people had shown up and it was a great time. Pablo asked his friends for their opinion.
They took a vote and it seemed like they each wanted to go, so they all quickly washed their faces, fixed their hair, put on some clean clothes and fragrances, and left. Not that they were in the car, but it seemed like our two main characters were on a direct collision course.
