читать дальше- What would you say if you look at the sky? Will you see the stars and think how beautiful they are? Or you will see some meaning behind all of this. Strange symbols, astrology, the meaning of life, may be…
He looks at the night sky for a minute.
- No, I wouldn’t say anything like this.
- Why?
- There are no stars here.
- No stars?
- Yes, I saw one when I met you but now there is really none. Look at it! It’s empty.
- What are you saying! So there was one when we met?
- Yes.
- And now you’re saying that it’s not there any more.
- Yes, that’s what I said.
- So… what happened to it?
- I don’t know. Who am I to know such things? May be it died… or I don’t know… disappeared?
- So when you met me it disappeared.
- Yes, that’s what I said! Were you even listening to me?
- That’s not really optimistic, you know…
- Who said the story was supposed to be optimistic?
- Certainly not you.
- That’s right.
Silence.
- Why were you asking about stars in the first place?
- Believe it or not, I was trying to be romantic!
- Romantic?
- Yes.
- Why now all of a sudden? You are not a romantic person.
- Am not.
- So… why?
- I thought it was a good idea…
- Yes?
- To try something new…
- To be romantic?
- Yes.
- Why?
- You’ve already asked that!
- You didn’t answer!
- Do you need an answer?
- Yes.
- I don’t have it.
- Why?
- Argh… just forget about it, okay?
- No more stars?
- No! Never!
- Mmm… okay…
Silence. They are lying on top of the building looking at the night sky. He is thinking that maybe it was not a good idea. Why did he even try? The idea was intended to fail sooner or later.
- You know what?
- What?
- I see it.
- What?
- The star.
- What star?
- The star I was telling you about
- Oh, that star…
- Yes, the star I saw when I met you.
- Oh.
- It’s still there. There was a cloud so I couldn’t see it.
- I see…
- Promise me one thing?
- What?
- Never try to be romantic with me, okay? It doesn’t suit you.
- Hmm…
- And if you will have a desire to do something like this again, let’s go to some café or something.
- Why?
- Because it’s freezing cold here.
- Thank god, you said it!
- What?
- Let’s go somewhere warm. I know a good place around the corner.
- Will you buy me food?
- What can I do with you? Yes, I will.
- See, you know how to be romantic even without all this star-talk.
- Got it, no more stars
- And?
- No more roofs in the middle of winter.
- Good boy.
