In the darkness of the room lit only by the pale moonlight, I notice a sad face looking at me from across the room.

He always had such a sad face. Then again, that's exactly what made me approach him when I was younger, which made him my favorite above all the rest. When he was happy, I wanted to cheer him up, and when he was sad like I am now ...

"I know exactly how you feel," I murmur, lifting Bunny off the dusty shelf and hugging him tightly to my chest.

Dark, wet spots are beginning to appear on top of his shaggy head, but he's used to it by now. He just soaks them through, absorbing the tears until they finally dry and I feel better again. He was always a comfort to me, which only makes me feel even more guilty for abandoning him, for putting him aside because I thought he was too old for him, at least I didn't throw it away.

In truth, you can never get over what makes you feel safe. Even the toughest of us, the ones who refuse to admit we do suc

    I look back at Travis thinking that all men are dense even the ones who are supposed to be geniuses. On the other hand, he seems sincere and I can't expect him to read my mind, nor do I expect him to, but seriously, he can figure out how to take down an entire organization of S-class criminals, but he can't figure this out? He's like the guy who can get sports stats or figure out how to make complicated technology work, but can't he figure it out for himself when he's a complete Neanderthal? Idiots, most of them! "The reason I got angry was that I asked you to take me seriously, but you made a joke and not only that, but the joke you made me think that all you are looking for is sex" "Oh, I see," he says in understanding. "Well, what do you know? Neanderthals can understand the obvious" " But Jane, if all she wanted was sex, then she would be running around town sleeping with anything that walks, but I don't want to. What I do want is to have the pers

    In winter, the town becomes a place where the branches of the trees were thrown all over the streets due to the snow. Our town looks like a small fortress covered and hidden by snow but… How else could we obtain our lush vegetation if not for the large amounts of water we receive during the spring rains and winter snow? And now that all the Christmas presents have been opened, it's not surprising to see most of the villagers sledding or building snowmen or snowballs, and generally just enjoying what little is left of this day. of Christmas. However, Travis and I deviated from the larger crowds, opting to stay in the quiet Training Ground 3. Training ground 3 is also completely transformed in winter, it has been changed from a thick and herbaceous field to a barren one surrounded by the aforementioned leafless trees, its skeleton trunks and branches are now gray instead of its color. normal earthy brown. The training ground looks like a Christmas card with its virgin

"Happy New Year, Mrs. Baker" he says smiling at me happily, her voice comes down from her and just for me. "Happy New Year," I say in a low voice back, returning the smile. And so we both kiss for the first time as husband and wife. When Travis and I finally break up and face people once again everyone is still yelling and clapping at us, even the ones who disapproved of our relationship at first. Yes, we have come a long way since this year, no… last year.

    I was once told that the way you spend New Year's Day determines how you will be for the rest of the year that begins. And I knew how it was going to happen, which was the same way I did every year: either sleeping or watching other people celebrate all over the world on television.I guess that means I tend to spend every New Year sleeping and watching other people live their own lives.Although this year I decided to let myself be dragged to the party by Rose ... A few months ago I returned to the town from a mission and spending quality time with my best friend and other colleagues would help the routine and know about their lives.The party has been quite entertaining, we are all having fun and I am a bit drunk but aware of what I am doing, I look around me and I find it ironic that despite wanting to do something different this day I still see others living their own lives I'm just not in my room with a wide flannel and panties watching tv ... this is where

    - Crossed a line? Yes, Travis, you have. Somewhere between sticking your tongue in my mouth and assuming I want to sleep with you ... yes, you've crossed a line!- You are the one who is thinking that I have other intentions with you in bed.- Are you high?- Okay, first I'm drunk and now I'm high?- What do you expect me to think? You never took me that much into account and you're acting too weird even for you Travis.- I told you what was happening, I like you too much, I want to spend time with you. What else do you want?- I don't know, maybe more than one explanation, like why now and so suddenly? And why do you keep moving forward with this?- Let's call it a New Years resolution and it's not suddenly Jane, I liked you for a long time. Why am I moving forward with this? Because I don't want to and can't send you wrong signals as I did in the past, but it seems like you ...- I'm not stupid Travis.- I didn't say y

I gave him one last smile, tightened my hug around Travis's waist, and didn't look back.XXXI look at Alia, this is the third time she's come up to Travis and asks if she needs anything but I know exactly what that little sentence means, that waitress is way too attentive to him.Ok ... she breathes and she counts to 10 .

    - Why do all the tall people always sit in front of me? They have all those empty seats and where do you sit? Right in front of me- Rose snorts, crossing her arms in front of her chest in irritation. - I'm sorry Rose I didn't see you there, I'll change with Jane if you want. - Captain? - Rose exclaims, matching her voice with the silhouette of her in front of her. - Hello! - he answers with a happy crease of eyes. - Are you on a date? - Rose says smiling from ear to ear with her eyes shining towards us. - Yes, we are- I say with a slight edge in my voice, daring Rose to say something bad about it, but to my surprise, she answers very enthusiastically. - Ha! I knew it! After what happened last night and that private chat between the two of you this morning I imagined it. Good for you! At that moment I remember because she is my best friend, I return her smile and change my seat with Travis, he and I have just sat down again when

    - Uhg well ... good luck to you- he says placing a hand on Travis's shoulder making a quick outing with his girlfriend.- You didn't mean to say that, did you? - He asks, rubbing the back of his neck with discomfort.- And why wouldn't I? Just because we are on a date and especially because we are together I hope you treat me like a lady, I have let you slip a lot of things for now, but if you do something that I do not want ...- Jeez Jane! You could shame the scared face Luis is wearing!- Well, I learned a few things from him while you were trapped in the hospital.- Like what? - His voice suddenly darkens.- That? Is the great Captain Travis jealous?- How did you learn Jane?- he repeats without stopping looking at me very seriously.- The scared face? - I respond weakly.- I hope it's just that- he murmurs before placing his hand possessively around my waist and pulling me closer to him.- Well ... How is it

    Another set of high-pitched screams emanate from the apartment hallway. I roll my eyes and shake my head before heading to the front door and poking my head through it. "Travis," I say in exasperation. "That?" he asks innocently. "Haven't you had enough?" "But they like it!" The terrified look in the children's eyes when they look over their shoulders and run away from us (or should I say Travis) They say otherwise, but what can I do? Its Halloween. Kids don't want to be scared and it's not like Travis stops them from taking the candy before he scares them. The huge orange plastic bowl with printed bats flying around its rim is surprisingly nearly empty, meaning either our candy is better than the neighbors' or he's been very, very generous in delivering the treats. Seeing as things rarely happen for a single reason, I guess it's a bit of both. "Okay, but once the bowl is empty, that's it, okay?" Travis gives me a happy

    Seeing how we have repositioned ourselves and back to where we left off, Travis Number Two stands very close to me so that I can continue right where he also left off, holding my hair to continue kissing and sucking on the back, the sides of my neck and the curves of my shoulders.I'm getting used to this extravagance of kisses when I feel two pairs of hands on me, one pair rubbing up and down my sides while the other pair gently glide up and down my bare arms, and while both touches are relatively innocent. , the double sensation is turning me on much faster than if it had been just a pair of hands.And then the hands start to wander and the touches are less and less innocent. A pair of hands rub up and down the outside of my thighs, causing my already short skirt to sit a little higher with each stroke. Meanwhile, another pair of hands is slowly beginning to unzip the back of my dress. It's Travis Number Two, and as he slowly reveals every inch of my bareback, he pla

    "Do you want me to do it?" I ask hysterically.Travis looks like she's in fear for his life, as she should be. I mean, I knew the man was perverted but I just didn't realize how much."No, Jane! You're not going to do it! Oh, does not matter! I knew it was too weird! I knew I should never have asked you! You're so sweet here, making me dinner and dressing up for me and I screwed it all up by making that suggestion. Very sorry. Please forgive me and forget that I ever asked"I look at Travis with a pounding heart, but not for the reason he thinks. I'm not mad, I'm actually ... excited."Travis, calm down! I didn't say I wasn't going to do it. I just want to clarify what exactly you want us to do"Now he seems completely bewildered as if he had just said to her: Yes, Travis… Santa Claus is real."Really?""Yes, I will do it"And just as the words leave my mouth, I'm just as surprised as he is by my willingness to do so.

    Would it be wrong for me to mention to Travis that his birthday used to be the same day that Japan and elite countries used to celebrate Respect for Aging Day? I think so. Also, he is angry at all the jokes that he has received and continues to receive for being with someone much younger than him.However, I must admit that even some jokes are quite funny, like having a parent-teacher conference when we went to see my parents. I mean, what can you do? You can get mad and hit the ground all the time (I tried for a while until Blanca threatened to remove the town repair costs from my paycheck) or access the jokes on a case-by-case basis and take them from there. Seeing how the majority of the people have learned to accept or ignore us.It's hard to believe that Travis is almost 35 today, 34 to be exact and here I am barely 24 years old. However, it is easy to put the age difference aside, when the man you are with appears to be at the same level of maturity as you and wh

    Applause from everyone.We both sit on the grass to watch the next dancer take the stage, a young woman who, like me, is dressed in a traditional kimono, but unlike me, this girl has strong and dramatic makeup. Her face and neck are so dusty that she appears white as a ghost and her lips are painted a bright shade of red. The stark contrast between the white, red, and jet black of her hair tied up in a bun makes her look not human at all, more like a porcelain doll placed on invisible strings by a puppeteer. Even her movements are limited, like those of a puppet whose joints can only move so far in any direction.This is Kyomai's dance.It's like a slow interpretive dance with various poses and hand gestures that tell a story. It is the opposite pole of the dance that preceded it, the dance of Odori.As the night darkens, everything begins to calm down and the sakura trees are lit up with paper lanterns, giving the hanami experience a different vibe, one
