Dinner

The dinner is going well, but the son keeps looking at me. Soon, he sits next to me and I sit away.

" So, what's your name?"

" Luna. Yours?"

" Max. Would you enjoy a walk tonight and then maybe dinner tomorrow?"

" No, thank you."

" Come on, now, you don't have to pretend you are not interested."

" I said no and that's what I meant by that. You only are welcome because my mother is making the dinner. Don't try to get what you can't have, idiot."

He grabs my arm, but I push him away. He is surprised and I stand up.

" Excuse me, but I don't feel well. I'll pack and leave tomorrow. Have a nice dinner."

" Luna, did something happen?"

" No. I just don't feel like having this dinner, but don't let my absence be noticed. Good night."

I leave the table and I start packing. Later that night, my mother enters in my guest room.

(They talk for a while, but Luna answers the perfect answersmechanically. Her mother leaves sad, but Luna doesn't notice. Her mother then goes to her room and starts to regret her actions three years ago.)
