The same night continues...For the majority, the same as every night, but not for the unfortunate man who displays a magnificent ring on his left ring finger and nothing more than that, when it comes to being married.He noticed the loneliness when everyone started to pay attention to their peers, ignoring him and some even seeing it as a bad omen due to the fact that he was alone, on a couple’s night and because he was practically induced or forced to wish them good luck. to the bride and groom. The whispers and laughter of those present sound like torment to him as he insists on looking at his watch. Meanwhile, everyone directed their chairs in such a way as to position their backs to him. “God forbid..., but if this marriage doesn't last, I'm sure it was the sinister back here that was bad luck...” says one of the women in such a way that Bruce could hear.These words and the gestures of most women, added to his situation, induce him, for the first time in his life, to go beyond w

The following nights...“Well, I don't think we'll play like we used to... After all, ... neither of us are kids anymore...” whispers Bruce.“You're absolutely right, bro, you're absolutely right...Now we have adult lives and...” the brother agrees."... Then? What do adults do... to have joy... similar to what children have?” asks Bruce, because, as a child, it was this brother who had the most fertile imagination.“From the moment I set foot in this city... all I can think about is...” Bruce's brother gets excited, but is interrupted by him saying, “if that's what I'm thinking, and I believe it is, because I've always been able to understand what you're thinking...” he half questions, believing the obvious.“This is not a phenomenon...”, adds the brother, “seeing that, deep down, you have a little of me... as much as I have of you and, together, we complete each other....”“I don't even need to remember what we did or... almost did... when we were teenagers. The only thing that did

Another night at the bar...Early in the morning, a team organized a small stage with the appropriate instruments. For regular customers at the luxury hotel bar, it was nothing new.From that day on, during the festive month of celebrating love, there would be the traditional presence of the singer Tenórius, with his remarkable voice.Everyone present was expectant and there were already many napkins with song names and dedications that would soon be given to the friendly artist."Good evening, everyone!" he wants the bar manager at the microphone and, without the enthusiasm deserved for the occasion, after a pause, he adds.” It is with great sadness that I announce that our beloved Obadiah Tenórius will not be able to be present during our festive period... He asked me to read the note, explaining the reason....Let's get to the note:“Dear friends and fans of my interpretation, I love you all and for this reason I feel obliged to go beyond a simple...: “There was an unforeseen event

A jealous wife whispers in her husband's ear, “the moment, people and the environment are what create, recreate, corrupt and divert us.” and soon after she frowns."What did you say? I don’t understand...” asks the husband, as he was busy at the moment.“Didn’t you hear me, Cabral...? I quoted a phrase my mother told me! Never mind...” she concluded, getting up and leaving, taking only the small bag with her.Meanwhile, everyone else remains in their places, sitting, eating, drinking and as if hypnotized.At the end of all the melodies that cover the contracted hours, the singer announces. “Thank you very much for the applause... Now, to close the night, I will sing a version of a song that most of you probably know the melody...I'm a fan of this singer and that's why I wrote these lyrics. The melody belongs to my diva and I ask everyone for permission to interpret my lyrics in it.She takes a deep breath and begins to sing: “I am a womanI just know how to be like thisBut this can

CHAPTER 51
Months later...One morning, despite the effect of a strong hangover, he, moved by the conscience that constantly disturbs him, decides to visit the dimension where his wife lives.The plan is simple: Confess to mistakes; explain why, justifying them; ask for forgiveness; swear not to commit them again and, finally, suggest reasonable conditions within what you have the right to as a husband.“I haven't been the same since the last funeral...And I don't know how to explain what I've become in the last few months...” he begins, interrupting his wife's morning ritual, in a high tone and slowly lowering his voice until the last syllable.After a few seconds of looking at the huge man, barefoot and shirtless, with disheveled hair, unshaven, reddish and slightly wrinkled face, tired and deep-set eyes. The odor of the sweat combined with the breath resembled that of a fermentation barrel, from one of the cachaçarias owned by the couple.“No wonder the exact day... that we stopped sitting t

CHAPTER 52
The next day, first thing in the morning, she invites the new doctor director of the local hospital and maternity hospital for a meeting for two. As soon as the doctor walks through the door, anxiously, she asks a direct question:“When a couple cannot produce a healthy child... is there any way to know, precisely, where the problem is? In the man or in the woman?”“Good morning, First Lady... I realize that the issue of motherhood has once again occupied a place of concern in your life.”“Not like before doctor, not like before...But I admit that it is worrying. Faced with possibilities. But still speculative. Just answer me the question!”“I understand..., I'm sorry for the apparent intrusion... Well, to be sure where the impediment is coming from, we will have to, obligatorily, carry out some tests on one of the two or on both to be more exact... and...” is interrupted by her.“On my first. Could it be today, now?” she rushes.“Well, we don’t have the resources for that here, in o

CHAPTER 53
Days later...Rúbia receives the bishop at her home, as she had called him to confess. It had been years since her parents' death, when she had put spirituality aside. “God has disappointed me more than once”, he had said in his last confession and, without knowing what to say, he had just given a standard answer: “They are the mysteries of God..., very cliché I know, but they are the only one’s words I learned to answer the most complex questions..., excuse me” Sitting in the living room, the bishop, for a few minutes, is finally called to go up and they talk in private. Five days later...Rúbia receives delegate Torres, head of the Romântica central police station, who she herself placed in the position after dismissing the previous one.A few days after the meeting with the police chief, she sent for a lawyer she had met before, in France, and also had a private meeting with him.After a few more days, she had a meeting with the three of them together that lasted more than two ho

Another day getting to know, in practice, the universe of the game...“One of the chess player’s adversaries is… time!” recalls the instructor. Realizing, once again, that Rúbia makes good moves, but it has taken a long time to make them.“I know that...” understands the student.“One of the characteristics of good players is how quickly they move compared to the opponent. Well thought out moves, however, without consuming more time than the opponent, remember?” It reminds me of Rúbia, the teacher.The student remains thoughtful for a while.“Lady Rúbia...?” he asks Eleonora, noticing that she was thinking for a long time and adds, “Life is short by nature, but chance can make it even shorter. “So, every little moment can represent a big part.”“I'm sorry, but... when you told me that, it reminded me that... Never mind!” She thinks about justifying it, but remembers that the teacher, like most people, shouldn't know everything she's currently thinking.Despite the game of chess withou

That same night, between the second and third dose...Suddenly, someone appears sitting next to him in one of the chairs at his table, while the already very pink man is drinking and watching through the window, serenely, at the immense darkness outside.“You're thinking about her now, aren't you...?” He whispers in their language, as they always have, and adds, “I feel it in you, it's very perceptive, it's in your eyes... sometimes you're... a bit controversial...”"Who are you to act like you know me?!” Bruce whispers, almost in thought.“How ironic…” he replies and then continues, “given that everyone drinks to forget their troubles…, you…, well…, you seem to be going the wrong way from time to time, it seems still divided in the first doses...” notes Bruce’s brother.“Today, by chance... I saw her and... that always messes with me...This is love... I don't even know why I say this to you... you've certainly never loved anyone!It's pure nonsense to talk about this feeling with so
