few weeks ago, S., and the other between a preparation for the wedding, invited me to a drink and, on that occasion, he presented his friend. One of those who were present at the wedding (to a few posts ago).
The official version is that he was sorry that I did the trip alone, and that if I preferred, I could go in the car, in fact, with L. and another friend. With this
L. we exchanged a couple of organizational mail, such as reaching the church, how long it takes Ferrara-Asti, the time of marriage ... things like that.
Finally, we also exchanged phone number, if anything bother me to drive with the heels and I decide to accept that its passage last second.
Then we met at the wedding, we chatted and joked, and when we parted, L. I ago: see you in Ferrara? I said yes. But I question mark that I had not caught mica. The phrase seemed to me one of those circumstances, such as ... ok see you around ... ok, yes.
pass some days, a late-night S. I write a text message and tells me that he heard L. and L. told him that I am quite interesting, I wrote some texting, but I told him that I did not. Maybe I have not received?
control my phone and see that yes, indeed it is true. Three posts of L., zero responses on my part.
Half asleep, given time, writes: "And say to you that maybe if L. I have not replied is because I have not had time ... or more likely because I do not care. Do not you think?"
satisfied I read ... Yes, when you need it takes.
Enter.
just that, by mistake, just send that message to the L. instead of S.
I realize just a fraction of a second after you send it and I think this is just a classic fall style. And then I think ... Oh well, better this way, a step less. Patience, so I was not interested.
The next morning I find an e-mail L.: "I know that you, as a child, you did not read story books. Do not they tell you that sometimes, the frogs become princes? Ok, I give you act, maybe I'll never be a prince. But your SMS (or written wrong on purpose?) has destroyed my male pride. :-( I think, to remedy, at least you'll have to accept a drink ... :-) . Come on, at least think about it! L.
I, then, excuse me for a bit of a slip, and a little bit because basically, the email frogs and princes had clearly hit me, I thought.
And I realized I had also struck two other things of L., to marriage: the strange accent, which I then discovered to be in Umbria, and the color of the tie.
So in the end, I accepted the invitation at that 'aperitif.
aperitif was followed by an impromptu dinner in one of the most improbable of the city. All laugh. At the dinner is followed by a long walk in a deserted Ferrara, foggy and not too cold.
My apologies have become jokes, gossip, laughter, and then the discovery of things in common, not too many passions and projects.
invitation accepted for duty and half-heartedly took a different turn and has become a fun and enjoyable evening.
One of those who come as well, by chance and without thinking too much about. One of those where, at some point, you throw an eye on the clock and it is already two and its not you noticed.
I have not even kissed, and that frog has become the closest thing to a prince that I have come across a very long time.
And now let's see what happens ...
