Sueño nocturno
I was at a party with old friends from high school. I was sitting on the right side of a gray love seat with my friend Agustin on the left. On my right, on a smaller couch was Iva, laying on her back and speaking in fluent Spanish with my friend Ricardo, who was in another couch in front of me. I could hear a slight accent on Iva's Spanish, but she looked confident, she had both hands behind her head, she was wearing dark blue jeans, dark gray sneakers and a white t-shirt. I can't remember what she was saying.
Agustin asked me without interrupting her conversation "So that's the deal? She speaks Spanish, but do you speak Serbian?"
- "Da" I replied.
- "So you don't speak Serbian!" he laughed.
- "Da means yes, you dumbass" I said, he laughed even louder.
She looked at me for a second, she smiled but it was a friendly smile, I realized we were recently married.
We got to our house later, a two floor, big, blue house with white accents. I wanted to kiss her but she said she wanted to sleep so she went upstairs, straight to the bedroom and into the bed. She slipped in the right side of a big bed with white sheets and a creamy duvet cover.
I sat on the edge of the bed, by her hips, and looked at her, she had no make up on and she was beautiful, I didn't want to touch her. I smiled, she seemed uncomfortable, I felt my chest getting smaller and smaller on the inside, tighter, it hurt.
- "You know something? I really, really, really love you. So much." I told her one last time.
- "I really wanna sleep" She said and smiled.
I knew she was gone, I knew I haven't been loved for so long now. So I smiled again "I understand" I said, and then "Goodbye", stood up from the bed, went downstairs and walked out the house, it was still daytime.
I woke up an hour and 45 min. before my alarm went off.
