"Im grateful I could". I smiled softly and after some time I added: "You know you can always talk to me if you need someone. Doesnt matter if you want advice or to vent about something."
"For an eighteen-year-old youre pretty wise young lady." He smiled at me," thank you."
"Hey I turned nineteen last month! Give me a rest! "I hit him on the shoulder, and he just chuckled.
Half an hour later the song changed, and my face lit up: "Oh my god I love this song! I screamed and put it on full volume". It was before he cheats by Carrie Underwood.
"Right now, he's probably slow dancing
With a bleached-blond tramp
AND SHE'S PROBABLY GETTING FRISKY
RIGHT NOW, HE'S PROBABLY BUYING HER SOME FRUITY LITTLE DRINK
'CAUSE SHE CAN'T SHOOT A WHISKEY
RIGHT NOW, HE'S PROBABLY UP BEHIND HER WITH A POOL STICK
SHOWING HER HOW TO SHOOT A COMBO
AND HE DON'T KNOW
I DUG MY KEY INTO THE SIDE
OF HIS PRETTY LITTLE SOUPED UP FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE
CARVED MY NAME INTO HIS LEATHER SEATS
I TOOK A LOUISVILLE SLUGGER TO BOTH HEADLIGHTS
SLASHED A HOLE IN ALL FOUR TIRES
MAYBE NEXT TIME, HE'LL THINK BEFORE HE CHEATS
RIGHT NOW, SHE'S PROBABLY UP SINGING SOME
WHITE-TRASH VERSION OF SHANIA KARAOKE
RIGHT NOW, SHE'S PROBABLY SAYING, "I'M DRUNK"
AND HE'S A THINKING THAT HE'S GONNA GET LUCKY
RIGHT NOW, HE'S PROBABLY DABBING ON
THREE DOLLARS WORTH OF THAT BATHROOM POLO
OH, AND HE DON'T KNOW
OH, THAT I DUG MY KEY INTO THE SIDE
OF HIS PRETTY LITTLE SOUPED UP FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE
CARVED MY NAME INTO HIS LEATHER SEATS
I TOOK A LOUISVILLE SLUGGER TO BOTH HEADLIGHTS
SLASHED A HOLE IN ALL FOUR TIRES
MAYBE NEXT TIME, HE'LL THINK BEFORE HE CHEATS
I MIGHT'VE SAVED A LITTLE TROUBLE FOR THE NEXT GIRL
'CAUSE THE NEXT TIME THAT HE CHEATS
OH, YOU KNOW IT WON'T BE ON ME
NO, NOT ON ME
'CAUSE I DUG MY KEY INTO THE SIDE
OF HIS PRETTY LITTLE SOUPED UP FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE
CARVED MY NAME INTO HIS LEATHER SEATS
I TOOK A LOUISVILLE SLUGGER TO BOTH HEADLIGHTS
SLASHED A HOLE IN ALL FOUR TIRES
MAYBE NEXT TIME, HE'LL THINK BEFORE HE CHEATS
OH, MAYBE NEXT TIME, HE'LL THINK BEFORE HE CHEATS
OH, BEFORE HE CHEATS
OH"
I screamed every line and as the song ended, I sighed with a content smile on my face, "That was nice." I mumbled.
A perplexed Daniel never stopped looking at me with wide eyes, "Who hurt you?!"
This comment had me burst out laughing.
"Look! Oh my god I have to show you! This is so beautiful! Wait Ill pull over." I cheered as I saw the Villa Brignole Sale on the side of the road.
We have time for a walk before the sun sets. Get out! Lets go! I motivated the confused Australian still sitting in the car.
Soon we were walking through the gardens of the Mansion: "this is so beautiful! In 1814 they completed the wood up there known as 'del Leone' and in 1872 Maria Brignole Sale De Ferrari, Duchess of Galliera, had the vast romantic garden designed by Giuseppe Rovelli. Since 1931 it has been used by the City of Genova, initially on a rental basis and then, since 1985, on a property basis, except for the palace and the garden in front of it.
Over the years it has hosted several illustrious guests like Luisa Maria Adelaide di Borbone-Penthièvre, Maria Cristina di Savoia, Ferdinando II di Borbone, King Carlo Alberto, Queen Maria Teresa of Habsburg and the emperors Francesco Giuseppe of Austria and Guglielmo of Germany.
The garden became famous in the first half of the 19th century for its camellias and collection of citrus fruits, which were so popular that they were regularly sent as gifts to Maria Theresa, Queen of Sardinia, and wife of Charles Albert of Savoy.
But in the last years of the Second World War, German troops equipped it with defensive works to control the coast and the Leira and Cerusa valleys. While the trenches are no longer visible, lookout and shelter bunkers are still present." I rambled about the history of the building.
"Wow you really know much about this." Daniel smiled.
"I saw it today while doing research, but I didnt think it would be right here. Sorry for rambling." I mumbled an apology.
"I find it really interesting." He reassured me and we walked a bit over the property.
