We walked on a moonlit path. The north wind was blowing, and I'm sorry I didn't bring my favorite wool coat... It would have been warmer... In the moonlight, the man's face looked even more beautiful! It was as if he was hidden under a black veil... We were both silent. I don't know why he didn't say anything to me, maybe he's thinking about me now...? No! It can't be... The wind started blowing even harder. I seemed to be waving like a ship in a stormy sea! The rain was pouring down like a bucket...
-Oh shit! It's raining so hard! - Benedict took off his suit and put it on my head
-What are you doing?! You will get sick! - I shouted
-"I have no pity for a beautiful girl like you, Madame Liliana... - smiled
We were running like leopards who got the chance to catch a gazelle for lunch! But instead of a gazelle, we bumped into Kristina!
-Oi! - she exclaimed.
All of Kristina's purchases fell out of her hands! - Oh, you useless children! You'll get it! - she said angrily, looking at us and pulling something out of her bag.
-Don't kill us, Miledi! We didn't mean to!
-All children say it by accident! Wait a minute, I'll get my glasses out because I can't see anything! - Said Christina
-How can she not see anything, but she can see where to carry the shopping...? - whispered to me, Mr Li
I giggled.
-Don't fall, you two naughty girls! - Kristina scolded, - I can hear everything, I'm not deaf!
-She doesn't see because she sees better from afar, not close up... - I said quietly.
I felt like a child who had played a funny joke on his neighbors! I was so absorbed in my role as a little girl that I couldn't let it go!
-"How many fingers do you see now? - I put 2
-You, little girl! Don't ask stupid questions! Of course you're showing 3!
-You're absolutely right, granny! - shouted Benedict
-I'm wearing glasses! Now the picture should be clearer... Wait, wait, wait... - Kristina rubbed her glasses and put them back on, - these are not children standing in front of me!
-Hello, Kristina! - I said hello
-"All this time you were standing in front of me, Liliana? - she couldn't believe her ears
-' Yes...' I smiled
"Who is this pleasant-looking visitor? - Kristina smiled, "I thought you stopped going out with boys when you were 19.
I looked angrily at Kristina and she fell silent:
-Don't worry, I'm not offended at all... - Benedict said, looking me in the eye and finishing picking up Kristina's shopping trinkets, "It's a pleasure to meet you, Miss Kristina De la Cour... - he said, handing her the purchases
-I'm pleased too! Well... The rain has stopped... I'm on my way! Be sure to bring Liliana home and don't get lost! - I smiled
-I won't take it, but I'll be sure to bring it home! - he managed to shout back to her
-Where do we go from here...?
-"Let's go...", I said with a sigh
-What's all the fuss? Maybe you're jealous...? - he sneered
-What?! Me? - I waved my hand - Definitely not! And I'm fine... It's just that I don't like to talk to people...
-How can you not like it?! After all, you have a job that requires...-
-"I know, but that's different. I find it easier to talk to murderers than to strangers.
-"But you can't say we're strangers? - he smiled
-...
-"Thank you for walking me to the doorstep, I really didn't need to.
-It's always a pleasure, Miledi! - she said and bowed in a gentlemanly manner
-See you later! - I said
-Wait! - Benedikt exclaimed, as if trying to take my mind off him.. - When will we see each other again?
-I don't know...
-"Would you like to go to Berta's café for a coffee at 8 o'clock on a Monday evening?"
-Good! - I quietly stammered, - Except I don't like coffee I'd rather have tea! - I smiled
-Great choice! I'll treat you. See you later!
-Good night! - I replied
