An ex-lover goes to visit a woman, and both of them
are pleased with it, just the sensation of being together and feeling the
attraction. When he looked at her, she moved quickly away to prepare tea, interrupting
their courtship.
Both of them wanted to speak about what she had said
the last time they met, but she needed time for herself, to grow calm, to feel
free. Friendship was a good option.
He was so comfortable with her that wanted to go on
from where they left off last time, but she tried to stop it from happening
again.
The attraction was in the air, they spoke nervously,
lovingly, they wanted to succumb, but then their friendship would be in danger
and she would suffer.
He wanted to stay but decided to go, she wanted him to
stay but didn’t say, she cried, felt rage. The bell rang and she hoped it was
him; instead it was an old friend: she hugged her and said goodbye.
