SDV Bachelor domestic headcanons
MDNI
Just some headcanons, not anything nsfw but they are adults, and I hit the zaaaaa so these will be dumb, like dumb dumb
Alex:
He has full-on elbowed you when he woke up a few times. Forgive him he's not used to sleeping with someone and he likes to stretch when he wakes up. 
If you have a dog he’s definitely buying one of those running leashes, the one that goes around the hips. Who will tire who out first?
Usually the dog gives out first, and he carries them back home cooing at them like they are a baby… they are
Modifies your home with Robin's help so George and Evelyn can visit
Evelyn, how did you feed this boi? He’s burning through calories 
Especially after helping pick up the farm work…. Sweaty Alex… Cowboy lookin fine ass… Horny jail….
Elliott:
Journals EVERYWHERE, all of them have different ideas, title workings, and little ideas that just popped into his head.
Sits on the front porch head in hand watching you pick fruit, mumbling something like
From tiny seeds to branches high. With gentle hands, they pluck the prize.
Loves to shower with you, he just holds you helps wash your hair, and scrubs your back. Tell you how pretty/handsome you are.
Bought you both matching bathrobes
Tell me he doesn't sleep with a bonnet, look at that silky hair. 
Matching silk pillowcase as well
I imagine this man is a mover in his sleep, and wakes up lookin like the Peter Griffin dead pose meme
Harvey:
The first night yall are married he cant sleep, he's just watching you. Playing with your hair giggling like he was high, he was high of how happy he was.
Has just as many self-care products if not more then Elliott, his mustache looks sculpted, you don't get that look without gel and a little mustache comb
He has a little pocket mustache comb you bought him as a joke but he loves it
Wears an apron when he cooks. Wait where did his go? Why is there a maid one in its place.... Horny Jail....
Charges you for passing out or almost dying to fund his therapy visits, you caused this farmer, look at the gray hairs.
Silver fox Harvey that's all I'm saying
Sebastian:
Good luck getting out of bed, hes like a fuckin backpack
Wakes up eyes not even open just pawing around for whatever hes trying to find.
Eyes are all bloodshot cus he was up all night working, sitting on the porch with his coffee, smoking, petting your pet
Doesn't fully wake up till about high noon
Helps out on the farm, but still does his own thing.
Stays out late with Sam and Abigail practicing for their upcoming gig, you both usually see each other returning home around one am
Momma Boi still goes to Robins for dinner every now and again
Sam:
Puppy at your heels, you go one way hes there. Forgot something? Turn around and trip over his feet
Loves living on the farm with you because now he can crank the tunes all the way up, and you can hear his speakers while you're in the field
Falls asleep anywhere, the porch, the couch, lying down in the grass with the dog/cat
If you cooked it hes eating it, he does the same for his mom
When Kent is back he babysits Vincent some nights
Speaking of, when he Vincent and Jas all get together good luck on the unsuspecting person about to get pranked.
Shane
Its law you adopt Jas, i said it, it cant be broken
Taking Jas to school, returning and helping you with the farm
He and Jas chant “Pizza,Pizza,Pizza” over and over when you ask what is for dinner
Warm, squishy, cuddly, bear hugs in the morning. Hes another backpack boi
When he's awake though, unless you are at home, light PDA
Works with Haley to learn his video camera more, its another hobby to keep him busy
First time seeing you wearing one of his shirts, the shirt is no longer on you… Horny Jail…

the real Mariluke Struggle: marius wants to stay over at Luke’s place all the time bc no pax, no crazy sad family stuff etc but luke’s bed is uncomfy!!! meanwhile luke wants to be at the von hagen crib bc wow marius has a 10/10 cloud heaven bed. solution is to obviously get luke a new bed but can you imagine trying to get that up three floors?? absolute hell.
this entire ask is so good and so FUNNY. it's problem after problem. i love that luke's bed is uncomfy, it probably is WELL past its due date and there are bits where the spring is starting to come out and thats making annoying lumps on the bed but luke doesnt replace it on the grounds that "it still works" which is like, yknow, his standards are below sea level. in spite of that, marius totally likes luke's place because of all those reasons, also because of luke, and because it's closer to pax than the estate which makes it easy to drop by, and because it's genuinely nice and cozy place.
meanwhile luke loves marius' bed and marius' bedroom (theres so much space???? the tv is so big??? the bathroom is like a 5 star hotel bathroom????) but he still gets intimidated by how Fancy(TM) the von hagen estate is and also theyve probably been caught making out like several times by vincent and one horrific time by AUSTIN so like, there are definitely perks to luke's setup where the only living being who cohabits in his space is peanut, a literal bird.
marius can buy luke an absolutely resplendent new mattress. it's so good it makes luke realize he's had back pain he didnt even know about until he test laid down on the bed at the luxury bed department store (??? idk how rich people beds work or where they come from, do they hatch from eggs?) because suddenly that back pain is Gone. it's a fantastic bed. marius cant wait to nap in it with luke and also fuck him silly on it. but like, yeah, it needs to go up Three Floors.
i assume marius probably hired movers from the luxury bed place but then those movers are confounded when they accidentally get the mattress just lodged-in STUCK in luke's narrow stairwell headed up to his living space. like, it's really wedged in there. luke and marius try to get it un-wedged themselves and theyre successful but it takes more than an hour and also luke wondering about the geometrics of the entire situation
luke: what if i just bust a hole in my wall to get it out
marius: hello???? why is that even an option????????
luke: i dunno just putting ideas out there
like i said, standards below sea level
by the time they get the bed onto luke's palette bedframe, they both just conk out completely tired and asleep on it. and to the mattress' credit, they Do get a very restful and deep sleep while on it
now marius just has to buy luke new bedsheets because luke's old bedsheets still have some blood spatter stains from when luke came home from missions too tired to clean himself up. but thats a conundrum for another day

holy shit i love red dragon
watched Manhunter with my sister (her first time) and during the part with Dolarhyde and Reba attempting a relationship, she mentioned that it felt like a genre shift from noir procedural to romantic drama. She's so right to say it!
She also astutely pointed out that this section of the film felt like a fantasy – something sweet in the moment, but it's not like a real relationship between the characters could actually happen. In a way, Dolarhyde's conflict between being unable to balance career (if we can call it that) and his desire for domesticity reminded me of Frank's big dilemma in Thief, which came out a few years prior. He longs for a wife, kids, and a house with a yard, but of course his criminal past and present prohibits him from a chance at the American Dream. (As a side note, @rocket-eighty-eight has some REALLY GOOD fic about Frank and you should read it.)
In a lot of ways, Frank is a prototype of Neil McCauley: a master criminal who's somehow maintained his principles and a code of honor (yeahhhh boi love a good code hero, or antihero in this case). Neil says he doesn't want to live a normal life, he wouldn't know how, but Heat 2 shows us that he had it all and watched it all crumble. Neil definitely isn't cut out for a regular-type life, in his words, but that doesn't mean we have to believe him when he says that he doesn't want it.
But back to Manhunter – Dolarhyde fights against his impulses, but goes back to what he knows when his heart gets broken. The song choice Mann uses, the Prime Movers' "Strong As I Am," is so perfect for his character that when I first watched the movie I thought the song was written specifically for it: "Strong as I am / there's something 'bout this thing that scares me." Associating those lyrics with his character also helps to make him sympathetic in that moment. He feels rejected and he's fighting the monster on his back, to paraphrase a line from Bryan Fuller's Hannibal. When he gives into the monster – or, like I said earlier, his "career," his vocation, whatever you wanna call it – he cuts himself off from domesticity for good.
Dolarhyde is a different kind of "bad guy" than Frank or Neil. They don't kill unless they have to, they've got codes they live by. The only reason Will is able to kill Dolarhyde before Dolarhyde kills Reba is because of inner conflict – he still loves her, even if they can't ever have a future together. Twas beauty killed the beast, or something along those lines. It's a monster movie trope as old as time.
It would be easy to compare Dolarhyde to other Mann canon serial killers like Waingro or Otis Lloyd Wardell or even Vincent from Collateral (there might be something about that latter comparison, but I'm gonna have to sit on it.) I just think it's interesting that Mann took the conflict he used for Frank (a sympathetic, antiheroic protagonist) and gave it to the antagonist for Manhunter. It also shows us how lucky Will Graham has it, and how much he's willing to fight for and protect his family's well-being. The ending is the happiest I've ever seen in a Mann movie, even if I get the sense that Will's been changed by that case. I'd say he's earned that happy ending.

Semana 1: Recuperando o Senso de Segurança
22 A 30 DE JUNHO DE 2023
Foi uma semana estranha… Começando novas rotinas, pegando mais tarefas domésticas, lidando com minha filhota doentinha + nova rotina de alimentação e medicamentos dela (everything’s okay, she’s fine now), além de ser fim de mês. 
Foi difícil conseguir focar em mim, em realizar o que propus a mim mesma e que não prejudicaria ninguém além de mim, por isso também acabei estendendo a semana até domingo para me permitir descansar entre tudo que tava rolando.
Chamei as minhas páginas matinais de páginas livres, acho que nem fiz nenhuma delas pela manhã, mas entendo como escrever logo ao iniciar o dia pode amplificar seus benefícios.
No exercício Vidas Imaginárias, escolhi ser atriz essa semana. Não tive como planejar nada fora de casa, então optei por gravar um monólogo de algum filme que eu curtisse. Mal sabia eu que monólogos eram tão difíceis… Gravei algumas vezes, nenhuma ficou perfeita, mas a última tomada foi satisfatória.
Transformei minhas objeções maldosas em afirmações criativas & hoje as colei em minha parede.
Não fiz nenhuma das Viagens no Tempo, difícil lembrar de coisas & tava me sentindo empacada de tanto tentar...
CHECAGEM SEMANAL
Quantas vezes você fez suas páginas livres esta semana?
Quinta, segunda, terça & quarta, totalizando 4 vezes. I’ll call it a win!
Teve seu encontro com a artista esta semana? O que fizeram? Como você se sentiu?
Tive sim! Assistimos ao belíssimo filme “Loving Vincent”, o primeiro longa-metragem totalmente pintado. Rolou aqui em casa mesmo. Dei uns tragos num beck, pedi duas horas ininterruptas com a sala toda para mim, me acomodei e afundei na história visualmente deslumbrante. “Cada um dos 65.000 quadros do filme é uma pintura a óleo sobre tela, usando a mesma técnica de Van Gogh, tudo feito por uma equipe de 115 pintores.” Foi como assistir a uma exposição de museu com transições de cena lindíssimas, uma experiência incrível! Queria assistir a esse filme desde seu lançamento, mas sabia que queria realmente apreciá-lo e nunca me dava esse tempo, fiquei muito feliz de começar essa jornada com esse encontro tão esperado comigo mesma.
Houve outros acontecimentos e descobertas nesta semana que você considera significativos para a sua recuperação? Descreva-os.
Antes mesmo de retomar o programa, minha prima me contatou oferecendo um job de design (minha formação), que me gerou um debate interno sobre precisar de renda vs. largar design de vez & focar em arte. Sinto que tenho de me mover para mudar o foco de minha carreira & deixar as pessoas saberem, para que quando as oportunidades surgirem, elas possam vir até mim;
Viciei em Campfire Cat Cafe, um jogo de celular fofíssimo com vários personagens desenháveis;
Comecei a ler Lore Olympus Volume 2;
Maratonei a segunda temporada de Clone High (2023);
Decidi desenhar por 15 minutos antes de dormir, me distraí & passou quase uma hora inteira! Desenhei cabecinhas antropomorfizadas baseadas numa ilustra antiguíssima da imzeferino, apreciei o processo & fiquei extremamente feliz com o resultado;
Chegaram marcadores PenTouch prata & dourado;
Montei uma coleção para checklist & registro de projetos de vídeo, inspirada na JashiiCorrin;
Assisti à linha do tempo completa de BoJack (Horseman, é claro), coberta por Johnny2Cellos.

Estaba mareado y con dolor de cabeza. Ya paso un año y medio de mi derrame cerebral y luego de toda esa tormenta este verano volví a bailar, poco a poco fui reencontrándome sin la certeza de que iba a poder retomar mi carrera algo que me definía, mi norte mi certeza, mi trabajo, mi oficio pero quiero volver a mover mi cuello por que quiero volver a ser libre mover mi cuello es importante, es algo que identificaba mi danza Me paro y elijo mi canción en el celular de Uri, lo miro advirtiendole que voy a abrirme, voy a mostrarme vulnerable. Y entro al centro del salón a bailar como baile cientos de veces en mi vida. Red dust de James vincent Mcmorrow. Me enrededo y me desenredo clavo mis puñales y me los quito me desangro busco unas manos que me contengan Y no las encuentro nunca las encuentro.

El animal atacó a un grupo de turistas. La tragedia sucedió el pasado sábado, 30 de marzo SMM En una sociedad cada vez más atraída por los viajes a lugares recónditos y alejados de los planes más habituales, los safaris están entre las opciones favoritas de muchos turistas que se adentran en países del continente africano buscando la mejor instantánea. No obstante, lo cierto es que la belleza de presenciar en primera persona animales en libertad conlleva un peligro real. La reacción de algunas especies puede ser muy peligrosa, hasta el punto de acabar con la vida de algunas personas. El pasado sábado, 30 de marzo, una mujer de 80 años falleció en la Reserva Natural de Kafue, ubicada en Zambia. La ciudadana estadounidense perdió la vida tras el impacto mortal de un elefante, que arrolló el vehículo en el que se encontraba. Además, otra persona resultó herida de gravedad, por lo que tuvo que ser trasladada a un hospital en Johannesburgo (Sudáfrica). Los otros cuatros turistas que se encontraban en el interior del coche junto con el guía resultaron prácticamente ilesos, con algunas heridas que no revisaron de mayor importancia. Todas las imágenes fueron grabadas desde el interior del vehículo, en el que se puede ver al elefante corriendo hasta lograr volcarlo, ya que el guía detuvo su marcha en seco. "El guía no pudo mover el vehículo para sacarlo fuera de peligro" "Nuestros guías están extremadamente bien entrenados y tienen experiencia, pero lamentablemente en esta ocasión el terreno y la vegetación bloquearon la ruta y el guía no pudo mover el vehículo para sacarlo fuera de peligro lo suficientemente rápido", explicó Keith Vincent, portavoz de la empresa Wilderness, compañía que se encarga de coordinar todo el operativo de los safaris. Los ataques de elefantes, aunque no suelen ser algo habitual, lo cierto es que tienen un alto porcentaje de mortalidad. La semana pasada, un hombre falleció en el mismo parque. Un ejemplar de esta especie sorprendió al ciudadano zambiano de 70 años que se dirigía en ese momento al centro de salud de la Reserva Natural de Kafue.

Moving in Melbourne? Here Are 3 Effective Ways to Dispose of Furniture
Tumblr media
Whether you're upgrading, downsizing, or just decluttering, moving can go more smoothly if you know how to deal with your furniture. Take into account these three efficient ways to get rid of furniture in Melbourne when you organise your move.
Sell Online – It's never been simpler to sell your furniture thanks to the growth of internet markets. You can offer your local products for sale on websites such as Facebook Marketplace and Gumtree. Provide precise explanations, take crisp pictures, and establish a fair price. This gets you some more cash in addition to helping you declutter. When searching for a removal company Melbourne, take into account those that help with moving goods that are being sold.
Donate to Charity – Giving to local organisations is an additional ethical approach to get rid of unwanted furniture. Donations of furniture in good condition are accepted by organisations such as the Salvation Army and the St. Vincent de Paul Society. This not only minimises trash but also assists people in need. Moving these things to the charity of your choosing can be made easier with the help of inexpensive removalists in Melbourne.
Recycling and Disposal Services – If something is broken or no longer functional, dispose of it properly or recycle it. Furniture can be recycled at a number of recycling facilities in Melbourne. For larger goods, council cleanup services also provide scheduled pickups. Furniture disposal is made easy by the agreements local removalists in Melbourne have with recycling companies.

Founded L.I.A.T. Airline, 1956.
Member Airline Operations Committee. Recreation Swimming Address Hodges Bay Antigua.
Prime Ministers laud Kittitian founder of LIAT airline
Fifty-five years after the establishment of LIAT (1974) Ltd by Mr. Frank Delisle, a national of St. Kitts and Nevis, in October 1956, with a single Piper Apache aircraft, the airline continues to advance the goal of Sir Frank to provide safe and reliable air transport to the islands and peoples of the eastern Caribbean.
Shareholder Prime Ministers Dr. the Hon. Ralph Gonsalves of St. Vincent and the Grenadines; Dr. the Hon. Baldwin Spencer of Antigua and Barbuda and the Hon. Freundel Stuart of Barbados in a joint statement noted that from such humble beginnings, today’s LIAT now represents the primary mover of people within the Caribbean region
Tumblr media
Sir Frank Henry Sapenne Delisle, was born on the island of St. Kitts on the 5th Dec 1918, the Son of Harry Delisle and May (Stephens) Delisle. Frank received his early education in Halifax, Canada then went to neighbouring Anguilla as a young man to work in the Agriculture Department.
Frank Delisle, got the aviation bug after some unofficial trips on US Marine Corps anti-submarine patrols from Anguilla during the Second World War.
He then migrated to Montserrat where he was employed with the Montserrat Company Ltd. as a manager of a fruit plantation in Montserrat, he took time out to take flying lessons and began flying a two-seat Aeronca from Montserrat in the early 1950s. It was there that his love and interest in aviation developed.
A former airline captain, Frank S. Delisle, is one of the most engaging and resourceful characters one could wish to meet on one's Caribbean.
Sir Frank played a tremendous role in bringing aviation to the Caribbean region.
Tumblr media
Sir Frank DeLisle was the founder of the Leeward Islands Air Transport (better known Caribbean-wide as LIAT), the oldest airline in the sub-Caribbean region.
With a vision of transforming air transportation in the region, Delisle started the Leeward Islands Air Transport Service Ltd. on 20 October 1956, on the island of Montserrat the year of the opening of Blackburne Airport.
This was preceded by operating from small landing strip he built on his plantation in Olveston in 1953. The strip was only 800 ft long and had a six degree incline. All take-offs were down hill and often down wind. Landings were made against the incline.
Tumblr media
In those days LIAT was a privately owned one-man operation with a fleet of one aircraft and a non-scheduled service between Montserrat and Antigua a sector distance of just 35-miles, blue water passage, using a Twin engine Piper Apache. His available payload was just three passengers and/or some freight which could amount to little more than an arm full of parcels.
Nevertheless the service was popular among the islanders and the next year, the airlines schedule was widened to include St. Kitts, St. Eustatius, and St. Marteen.
Tumblr media
Soon the Apache was reinforced with a twin engine Beechcraft Bonanza that could carry six passengers.
Gradually each island in the chain carved out miniature airports so that they can become aerially linked.
LIAT was incorporated in the Colony of Antigua, British West Indies, in 1956. At the time of its incorporation, its immediate purpose was to was to conduct a local inter-island operation with small aircraft within the British Caribbean area.
With the support of the late V.C. Bird, former Prime Minister of Antigua and Barbuda, DeLisle’s vision grew and LIAT moved its headquarters from Montserrat to Antigua and their Hanger, a 60ft x 60ft structure, was erected to accommodate the Herons. Alongside the first Hanger was the fuselage of another Heron which was modified to become an office of the accounting department.
The airline continued to grow and develop with the co-operation of other regional leaders.
In 1957 shortly after its incorporation, control of LIAT through purchase of 75% of its issued and outstanding stock was acquired by British West Indian Airways (BWIA). LIAT became a subsidiary of BWIA.
Tumblr media
It was considered that control of LIAT by BWIA would be mutually advantageous in that BWIA would participate through LIAT in providing local inter-island service with small aircraft and that LIAT would receive financial and other assistance in the conduct and expansion of its local service operations.
Tumblr media
LIAT maintained a home base at Coolidge Airport Antigua, equipped for routine maintenance and for training of personnel, its fleet consisted of four six passenger Twin Bonanza aircraft recently augmented by two 48 passenger AVRO-748 aircraft, there were over 90 employees, including 14 pilots; its capital structure consisted of 1,500 common shares of $100 par value, of which 805 shares were issued and outstanding of which 75% of such outstanding shares were owned by BWIA; not withstanding the a measure of autonomy LIAT was financially and administratively dependant on an integrated with BWIA.
Tumblr media
By 1960 LIAT had six aircraft four Bonanzas, a pair of de Havilland Herons and was flying as far as Trinidad.
By now the airline was flying scheduled services in a 1,400 mile arc in one direction to Puerto Rico(via St. Thomas) and to Trinidad via Guadeloupe, Dominica, Barbados and St. Vincent in the other.
In 1965 Delisle obtained his first turbo prop, an Avro 748, registered VP-LIK, and a second one a year later in 1966 due to the airline's decision to phase out the Herons, the Airlines Headquarters moving to Coolidge Airport to allow the Avro 748 to be operated.
In 1968, LIAT was operating some flights via an agreement with Eastern Air Lines to provide passenger feed at this U.S. based air carrier's hub located in San Juan, Puerto Rico and was flying "Eastern Partner" service between San Juan and Antigua, St. Kitts and St. Maarten
For the first time LIAT operated two 19 seat Twin Otters, which were replaced by 1970 by five Britten Norman Islanders.
Every winter from 1967 onwards, LIAT leased a single 748 from Autair and later from Court.
Tumblr media
In October 1971 Court Line acquired a 75% interest in LIAT from British West Indian Airways, BWIA the National Airline of Trinidad & Tobago and the remaining 25% on the 1st October 1972 for the total cost of £790,000, at that time LIAT’s liabilities exceeded the book value of tangable assets by £1,461,000 so the total cost of LIAT’s goodwill was £2,251,000.
LIAT consistently made losses up to the time of the takeover. The purchase agreement required BWIA to convert US$ 2,500,000current account with LIAT into a long term loan.
In 1972 (Sir) Frank Delisle founded Carib Aviation with a single twin-prop aircraft.
Tumblr media
Carib Aviation provided charter and scheduled flights throughout the Caribbean from its main base in Antigua.
At its peak the company employed 63 personnel, including some 15 pilots and 22 engineering staff.
The office facilities were at VC Bird International Airport, accommodating administration, accounts, operations and traffic departments.
An additional terminal office facility was located at Robert L. Bradshaw International Airport in Saint Kitts and Nevis. Carib Aviation also operated the DOMINICA AIR TAXI service between Antigua, Saint Lucia and Canefield Airport as well as a local feeder for LIAT.
On Tuesday 30 September 2008, Bruce Kaufman, new owner and CEO of the airline, announced that he was forced to cancel all flights the very same day because of no flight crews available.
He accused LIAT to have hired 7 of his Twin Otter pilots within a few days, breaking an agreement between the two airlines signed earlier in 2008 and leaving him with no choice to stop all operations.
Sir Frank DeLisle also founded Radio Montserrat, the first radio station in the sub-region, which is still operational today.
Frank Sapenne Delisle died at age 83 on Friday, November 1st, 2002.
It was the same day that he was honoured with a knighthood for his outstanding contribution to the aviation industry in Antigua and Barbuda and the Caribbean as a whole.
Frank is buried in St John's Public Cemetery, Antigua and Barbuda.

—¿Baila usted, My Lady?
—Defina bailar.
—Uhmm—murmura—. Es cuando el cuerpo se mueve al compás de la música que escucha.
No digo nada y solo lo examino con la mirada.
—¿Quiere usted venir al centro y mover su cuerpo junto al mío mientras sentimos la vibra musical impregnar nuestro sistema? — propone.
—No creo que a sus admiradoras les parezca de buen gusto que yo baile con usted—hablo, señalando con la mirada hacia el grupo de jovencitas detrás de él, mirando y murmurando entre ellas.
Podría jurar que están maldiciendome de varias maneras existentes.
—Ya veo, así que usted se siente intimidada por un grupo de chicas, ¿No es así?
—Yo no me intimido fácilmente—aclaro—. Pero no es de mi afán sentirme incómoda.
—¿Entonces?— vuelve a preguntar, extendiendo su mano para que la sostenga.
Sonrío de lado y coloco mi mano sobre la suya, levantándome de mi asiento.
El hombre sonríe triunfante y me lleva con él. A la pista de baile.
Me coloco al frente suyo, y pone una de sus manos en mi cintura y la otra la entrelaza con la mía. Yo coloco mi mano restante sobre su hombro y empezamos a movernos lentamente, a la par del ritmo musical.
—¿Es de muy mal gusto si me atrevo a preguntar por su nombre?
—¿Por qué quisiera saber mi nombre?
—Me gusta conocer a mi pareja de baile.
—Entonces es de esos tipos que les gusta hablar mientras bailan.
—¿No le gusta?
—Prefiero manteneme en silencio.
No dice nada y solo sonríe a medias.
Me da un giro y me lleva un poco más cerca a él, colocando nuevamente su mano en casi toda mi cintura.
Suelto un suspiro ahogado.
Nuestras miradas se conectan a la par.
—¿Fue demasiado?
—No, descuide—digo, algo nerviosa.
¿Pero que me sucede? Me ha tomado por sorpresa.
—Intuo que no esperaba esto.
—Debo admitir que no—sonrío nerviosa.
—¿La hago sentir intimidada, señorita?
Trago saliva despacio.
—N-o. Claro que no.
—Miente—acerca su rostro unos centímetros más—, puedo sentir como su pecho sube y baja porque su respiración se ha acelerado, y como trata de evitar mi mirada.
—No es cierto.
—Debo confesar que la he estado observando desde que llegó, me he sentido atraído hacia usted desde el primer momento en que la vi entrar con este vestido rojo que deja ver su figura envidiable, y me he sentido hipnotizado con su mirada. Me dije a mi mismo que no podía retirarme de esta fiesta hasta que baile conmigo.
Entre abro los labios, algo sorprendida.
Quiero decir algo, pero no puedo. Las palabras no sale de mi boca y ni siquiera puedo formular una.
—Así que le pregunto nuevamente: ¿Cuál es su nombre, bella dama?
El tono de voz con el que pronunció eso, hizo que una corriente eléctrica pase por mi espalda.
—Valerie—respondo, mirando sus ojos. Esa mirada intimidante que me observa solo a mí—. Joven-
—Vincent—culmina por mí—. Es un gusto conocerla, señorita Valerie.
La música se detiene y puedo notar por el rabillo del ojo como las parejas se van separando. Pero nosotros no.
Es todo lo contrario. Me acerca más a él y susurra en mi oído:
—He quedado encantado con sus movimientos, y ha sido todo un placer haber bailado con usted. Espero volver a encontrarnos, lo desearé con ansias, Valerie.
Culmina y se aleja de mi lentamente, dándose la vuelta y caminando hacia la salida principal. Dejándome parada, viendo su espalda alejarse más y más.
Vaya noche...
