Woolgathering

The phone rang. One time. Then, it stopped.

It meant that he wanted I call him.

I composed the phone number. He answered immediately. 

-         Yes?

-         Mary's speaking.

-         Hi! How are you?

-         Fine

-         Err… I'm sorry for Thursday! I was with your brother and I wanted to make him a joke and made him believe I would call you…

-         How funny…

-         Oh! Excuse me! No resentment?

-         Yes, I have! You see me just like a little toy, an object to provoke my brother, and I would have to be happy?

-         I don't see you like that!

-         Yes, you do! You began a month ago, and you have continued, he told me! And now, you make me be your accomplice! I refuse!

-         I don't see you like that!

-         Really? And how do you see me then?

-         You're a friend's sister!

-         My brother's sister… Nothing else, like every time, for everybody. You're a sod! You made me believe I was important, I was somebody special, not only your friend's sister!

-         Oh! Mary! Excuse me! I… It's just I'm…

-         You're what? Stupid? Yes! You are very stupid!

-         Mary! Listen to me! I'm afraid! Don't you love me anymore?

-         Did I have to love you before?

-         I hoped you do…

-         You… You what?

-         I love you Mary! I didn't show you, 'cause I was scared to lose your brother's friendship, but I can't act anymore as if I was indifferent to you…

-         You're lying! I can't believe you! You tell me that to seduce me! How can you be proud of that?

-         Believe me! Please! I'm sure you have the same feelings as mine; can't you forgive me for my stupidity, last night? I wouldn't have to tell you that… I know that I have hurt you! I'm so sorry!

-         … 

Then, I have forgiven him, because I didn't really bear him a grudge... Our story began, under my brother's supervision, but we didn't care… 

I would love this to be more than a dream...
