And even more, I don’t know this person sitting next to me during a 12-hour flight. That jacket is oversized for him, and his legs look way longer than normal. Can’t believe he’s walking barefoot on the plane. I wish I could see what she’s drawing in her notebook. From her eyes and skin color, she looks from the East. Does she draw every morning? How can they run a million-dollar startup today? I remember talking to them years ago, they were very excited about this. Sofia texted me again, I wonder if she knows I love her, it’s eleven years of selling my love as pure friendship. This band is out of the world, extremely talented people. I’d like to go on a tour with them one day. But how? Who knows if Willy understands time as we do. The vet says that dogs usually don’t get time properly as they only live in the present. Who can explain then why every time I come back after a trip he’s so excited?
I think I don’t know anyone.
But I always think about that night in July, you dressed up so well just to go to the pizza down at the street corner. Andrea says this tells so much about a person. He looks so annoyed today, it’s been one week that we don’t talk like we usually do. Tomorrow it’s Pinuccia's 80 birthday, she cooks the best food in the world. I want to live so long too.
I believe I know you.
Because when I see that look on your face, I know it means you had an amazing day at work. The dimple when you laugh it’s so you. With a new child coming, your life will be brighter than ever. I just know he’ll be a boy. Your mask may fool everyone else, not me. You can pretend to be something you’re not, surround yourself with strangers, and never look back again. But I’ll always know you.
I know it.
