I feel like I can not take it anymmore, I am so tired and tonight it is cold penetrating to the bones. I run among the trees, it’s dark and there are many roads, but I know where I should go, I just have to run far enough so that they do not reach me before I get to our meeting. I can not fail her, I told her that I would be there on the bridge at ten o’clock, she promised the same, and I will not allow this setback to come between us. Central Park is too big, they do not know where I am going… I do not hear them behind me anymore, I think I’ve lost them.
I continue my way thinking about her, neither the cold nor
the darkness nor the fatigue will stop me. I am approaching, and finally I
arrive at the bridge, Bow Bridge, a magical bridge, with its characteristic
white illuminating the gray night, with those crystalline waters that with
tranquility fill hearts with peace, with that greenery of the trees that
surround it, and those skyscarpers shining with the lights, reminding you that
even in the largest city in the world, you can find a place where you can
breathe tranquility and peace.
But in the center of that beautiful scene, crowning all that
landscape, there she was, with that princess's bearing, that silhouette so
perfect, that white skin like snow, those blond hair that fell on her shoulders
like a cascade of honey, and that sweet look that captivates me so much. My
heart is beating much deeper now. She arrived, just as she promised me, there
was no greater happiness in my heart.
We ran to each other, and we gave each other a big hug. I
picked her up while we hugged while we turned of joy. We stopped, and saw how
she smiled with happiness, while looking at me with those beautiful and
characteristic eyes of her, those aqua-colored eyes that I had expected so much
to see. And while we saw at each other, our lips came nearest, looking for that
longed kiss by both, after so long waiting for it.
But she suddenly stops me, and I sense that she tries to
give me something in my hand and I receive it. I see and it's a key. What the
hell, I think, I do not understand what is happening. Suddenly I hear behind me
the voice of a guy who says: "On the bridge, we have found him" No…!
