My Soul Cries

After calling all the friends, Emily met at 18:00 at Simone's home where everything was ready and ready. To help her, of course, there was Elena who, after the hard times and the death of her dad, had come to see her happy son.

Meanwhile, as the guests slowly arrived, Emily came out with Simone and took her to the sea, the place she loved most of all. They talked to fool the time, but after a while, the girl made a small mistake. As she walked away for a moment to make a phone call with Simone's phone, as her was unleashed, she let it go hand his. That Simone was curious was not a novelty, so he picked up the cellphone and at that exact time came Alessandra's message: "I am at Simone!"

The young man made calculations in mind, and despite having two in maths, he knew that Emily was organizing something behind him, maybe a nice surprise party.

When Emily came back she said she was leaving, it was time to get back to bed. Simone already knew but did not want to ruin what someone had never done before in his life, that is to make him really happy.

So they came home, waited a while, and when Emily gave the signal up the voice, all his friends came out of the room and shouted "SURPRISEEEEEE".

Simone was really impressed with how his mother had decorated the room and how Emily had cared for every detail. She had done her best to see him smile, and she had succeeded in great.

The days began to run faster than Usain Bolt and you did not know how to stop or deceive him. The fate however this time wanted to test Simone: after being impressed by Emily, the girl did more and planned a very special meeting.

Emily at school that morning suggested that Simone go with her to see the Pescara ball game.

Simone naturally accepted but wondered if they were just the two of them.

"Love, let's go with my family and some friends. My dad told me he wants to meet you, the ticket paid you him, "Emily smiled.

Simone was embarrassed, he knew that only a saint would help him, and in his mind he repeated that he would not like Emily's family and that he would be misled all the time.

The afternoon came. Simone was agitated, it was almost a piece of ice, full of fear in the body.

Emily tried to dissolve him, to calm him but he could not, and when the driveway was over, Simone saw people with flags and scarves. There was above all he, Benito the boss, his wife, some friends, the little dog Alì and finally Eleonora.

Simone, awkward and with Emily next to him, approached him, shook his hand firmly and he presented. He thought that an important step had already been made and the man answered all proudly by presenting himself.

When the presentations were over, he left to get to the stadium. There was harmony in the car and Benito was driving his Fiat Stilo station wagon, with its darkened windows and a screaming system to envy every vulgar in the area. Inside, they were listening to dance pieces from 80s, but above all he could not miss the compilation of Barry White, he loved it.

They were chatting in the middle of the smoke. Benito and his wife smoked two packs of cigarettes each day and if they did harm to them or to the people around them.

Meanwhile, Simone had already melted enough and, when he came to the stadium, he had a great time to see Benito inside the stadium, teasing to the last saint, smoking and celebrating with his family and friends. The boy was happy, there was in the middle of him and being in the graces of a father for him was really the best, since he did not have one.

At the end of the game everyone came back to their own homes and Simone came to resume from her mother. As she greeted Emily's family, she realized how the girl was really excited about what he had done for her. She was really proud of Simone.

Things were always going to swell and sail. Problems could not arise at that age, the real problems always come when it grows because when you are young you make it believe that life is a fun carousel that never ends. But in the end you have to go down and give up on the fact that you grew up and that carousel no longer matters to you.

Despite all this, Emily and Simone were a wonderful carousel, one of those in the city, decorated with beautiful lights and fairy tale music. Their fable continued and nobody could stop them, maybe only Simone himself could destroy this couple with his fears. He still had to defeat them, but it takes time, a long time.

On a Sunday morning, the two guys met. It was a hot day and they decided to shelter themselves in the park, where they were covered by the trees and were embraced by the light wind and the song of the birds.

At that almost enchanted place Emily, looking at the hour, offered Simone to eat at home. Simone became ice, even the strong heat could not dissolve him but in his insecurity he still had the strength to accept the invitation. She tried to call her mother to tell her she would not have lunch at home.

"Daddy, can Simone stay with us?" Meanwhile Emily alerted her father.

"Okay, but do you eat that fish?" Benito asked.

Simone hated fish since childhood since he had swallowed a plug. Since then he had been afraid of the fish in general and completely stopped eating it.

"Mmmm, no ..." Emily said, knowing Simone's tastes.

"But what fucking boy is he does not eat the fish? All right, we think about it! "the girl's father giggled. And there the call ended.

They arrived at Emily's house and Simone could not help but admire the vast lands and the smell of the countryside that reminded him of his home. And then how did you do not love that beautiful puppy who was Alì! The two became so great friends right away, they did not stop for a minute.

When he finished playing with Alì, the boy came into the house and he was struck by the great cleansing and the gentle order that was reigning, and by that scanty smell of fish coming from the kitchen.

Benito was in front of the PC to play, after spending a long morning in the fields, and greeted the boys.

"Hello chest, today fish can be left without food!" Benito joked.

"Well, you see that I'm not, so I do not get fat," Simone said, not to remain in complete silence, as every time he did not know what to say laughs.

His wife reassured the boy, revealing to him that she had cooked the excellent meat from animals reared in their stables.

Emily encouraged the young man to tell him that his father was just joking and Benito smoked his twentieth cigarette, a smile that made him run away.

In the afternoon Emily, Simone and Eleonora decided to go out together and make a leap into the centre. Before leaving the boy he apologized for not having eaten the fish with them and thanked for the welcome.

The day was about to end, and after that good morning and an afternoon in company, he did not really feel what life was giving him.

The carousel revolves, rotates, and no one intends to stop it. One day, however, he decided to do so inexplicably.

The days went by and without even knowing it went even the year, arrived in 2011 and started counting down to celebrate a year of engagement.

But before, Simone had to think of Gonzalo, January 31 was his birthday and, like every year, he was celebrating at his home.

The invitation also came to Emily and, as every birthday, Gonzalo received from Simone the usual 10 Euros in a greeting card. Simone never knew how to make gifts and, to have no doubts or problems, she gave the money so they could do what they wanted.

In his heart he could not wait for his friend's party to arrive, too, because his mother prepared, in addition to the churros, even the shorts. Simone was leaving at least with her full stomach, always eating at least twenty pants and churros at will. Eventually the stomach raised white flag, not even the Malox would have made an impact.

Emily, on the other hand, tasted those delicacies with pleasure, without coming to the comatose state of the boy.

The party was always cheerful thanks to the "Latin" effect of Gonzalo's kinship but, on a timely basis, it would have been well accepted by a translator to understand what they were saying. The party had almost come to an end and besides eating and talking to everyone else, nothing was done. At some point it was better to go home.

That night Emily was just saying how excited she was to celebrate their first year together in less than a month. It was also a joy for Simone, who had never been to such a long time with a girl that his stories lasted for a couple of months.

Inside, Simone was thinking of what to do and how to hit his girlfriend straight into the heart, because this time Emily had to stay open.

The idea came on February 1 after a rather hard school day. Back home, Simone saw his grandfather father working the wood and suddenly he lit a light bulb in his brain: that afternoon he went on to the story as to how Simone had a brilliant idea and at the same time very useful to improve his builder ability.

He had decided that every day until February 26 night he would write a letter describing everything he was preparing in those days with his feelings, just as scientists do when they record their own voice to document a discovery. Simone did it on paper and really did. He was sweating on the ground day and night, and after school he was in a hurry to go to work.

Time ran almost over him, he put his breath on his neck, but stumbled right into the end giving victory to Simone.

On the 26th night Simone concluded the writing made by him in the wood saying "1 year I love you". He had taken care of every detail, painted it and polished it in an impeccable manner, without splinters.

The letter, however, ended up writing it just when the clock marked the 00:00: it was then the 27th day, the most important day of their life.
