When she woke up, she immediately noticed a body next to her. It was Raúl. She closed her eyes and remembered.

She hadn't felt that sense of comfort for years. The incredible sensation of another body touching hers... yes, she missed it.

'Wake up, Flavia. This is nothing. In fact, you don't even know what it is' She told herself.

She looked at Raúl again. He really was an interesting and fantastic man. The evening was a huge success. However, she was determined not to let him know how much she missed him.

Raúl moved and Flavia looked away, refusing to be caught off-guard.

- I know you're looking at me. Raúl stated

Flavia stood up and did not answer.

- Where are you going?

Raúl demanded, looking at his mobile phone.

- I'm leaving. I shouldn't have stayed so long.

-Why? I want to know why. Tell me, are you not well?

Silence.

-Flavia? Let's have breakfast, oK?

Raúl stood up and grabbed Flavia by the arm. She looked at him directly.

- Okay! she replied firmly.

She opened his eyes and looked at his mobile phone. It was 3:40 a.m.

She got up and left. She strode into the living room. She was certain she'd heard a noise.

Flavia was certain that her childhood and adolescence were based on fantasy. This marked the rest of her life. She was aware of it and believed it, but in reality it didn't change anything. Her whole life had been guided by this fantasy, and it would continue to be.

Today he thought she had found the light and that she knew herself, but she was wrong. Nothing had changed. This so-called reality was the setting for the greatest journey of all.

She hated herself for being labelled 'emotionally immature' or 'emotionally intelligent', as if she was a little below average.

She is abruptly brought back to the present by the ring of her mobile phone. It's her daughter. Something's happened...

- Yes, I'm listening.

- You were quick. Don't worry, everything's fine. I'm inviting you to join me for dinner tomorrow.

- Of course.

- Then it's settled. I'm having dinner with you tomorrow. She hung up.
