Convertible
Towels and napkins
On the last day of our trip my companion insisted on renting a convertible and driving to Naples.
I like to please my companions as long as they are around, although I very much feared second-degree-burns. When it comes to pleasing a companion and a second-degree-burn the choice is not that difficult.
On the way back we had a late dinner in the old city of Terracina. Around 22:30 the garden of the restaurant was still packed.
Twenty minutes later a tempest started and the guests were running to take shelter in the restaurant, which was much too small for all the guests.
Inside it felt like being on the bus on a rainy day in NYC.
But of course there were significant differences. People started eating each other’s food, connections were being made and napkins were being used as towels.
“Are you happy now?” I asked my companion.

Take care, in those intense moments, one can easily fall in love – it is Ok, we are not watching.
@Arnon, is your ´companion´ the same person you previously referred to as your ´amante´?
Noa

Perfect
There is nothing I like more than a tempest at the end of a hot summer day. While the others run , I enjoy the rain pooring down on my head, my breast and legs. So simple ,but yet to me a perfect day.
There's great comfort in sharing food, I have come to notice. Valentino, the new guy I mentionned earlier, is a food-sharer. I, on the other hand, don't like to share my food. I like it to be crisp and clean and all mine. If you care to join in the eating, you an have it all. I don't understand the concept of sharing, I'm afraid.
@Arnon, Amante sounds more intimate than Companion, but perhaps this is what happens to every amante in due time.
