She looked seriously at me and said:
– Ally, you should try that too, it adds a slightly green tone to all of the sausages, and you don’t want to eat something rotten do you?
A hundred and fifty points to Gryffindor for the determination and courage of Hermione!
It happened during our final food shopping spree before the night flight.
– Any souvenirs, Lizzy?, – I asked looking at the cute bulls and magnets.
– Nooo, I don’t have anyone to give them to, you know, or I can get you a plate with dried beans and corns if you are interested. Her shoulders went down giving her a look of a starving stray kitten.
– Oh, don’t play the “lonely creature card” again, please, or I will buy this plate for you and ask for an engraving “to the black hole of the universe”.
– What?!
– Sorry, I can’t think of anything more lonely than a black hole flowing somewhere out there between the galaxies.
Lizzy rolled her eyes and handed me a large dark bottle of something.
– The best olive oil we can find. 100% pure, unrefined, cold press.
– Goes into your suitcase, – I said handing the bottle back.
– oh you! Dry salad on your plate for a week it is then.
I laughed and proceeded to the cashier.
That was our last evening at the hotel and, luckily, we were to watch the new episode of “Chloe” before we get into a cab to the El Prat International airport.
Seemed like the weather didn’t want us to leave so soon – a sudden storm in all its might and beauty threw itself onto the little city making its best charm – the pine trees – lean to the ground.
– Today is the season’s finale, – Lizzy told me in excitement,
– I hope it will be romantic and they will finally get together! How cute would that be?!
– Mhmm, – I nodded, getting a flashback to the day I was spying on the actor. I bet the script would get the show right where Lizzy is hoping for it to go.
– Don’t be so boring, Al, I know you like the show, especially after your Matthew got into it.
– My? Wha? – Goes with me to the grave, but I saw you checking his wiki page while searching for the livestream. Cancers aren’t as naive as one might think! – she beamed like a detective who managed to find the murderer.
– Of course they aren’t, – I answered, – they are just pure devils in a unicorn skin!
That costed me my snack bowl. But she was right after all. I was deeply interested in the subject. So indeed it was a season finale and heck it was full of romance. Matthew looked sharp, carried a bunch of red and pink roses and Chloe wore an unforgettably open dress (which almost made Lizzy sick). I had a sudden urge to turn this crap off, but something in me protested and asked to wait for 5 more minutes. My friend said her best “awww” when the actors kissed and turned her cute face to me.
