“Yеs? Don’t stop…” Gabе implогеd hеr. “Just sаy whаtеvеr comes into your head”.

“Now…I am beginning to wonder…”

“Wonder what?’

‘If maybe it’s possible”, she whispered, overcome by a sudden new bashfulness, her chin lowered so that she was looking only at the table.

“How would I know? Why do you expect me to know everything?” Jazz said, lifting her head.

“Because I am crazy in love with you, I have been since the minute I saw you and it doesn’t seem possible, it has never happened to me before, so you have to tell me, it’s true”.

“Oh …” Jazz said.

“Are you just going to sit there and say “oh”?

Jazz nodded, incapable of speech. She could not even make a gesture. She just sat there, immobile, knowing that it was enough for her to accept these words and wait. Her hands were trembling as badly as his, but his were warm and hers were cold.

“So that is settled. Love at first sight that’s what it’s called, that’s what has happened to us.”
