Splendid Passion. Gabrielle Queen
thought about it but no. She didnât have something like that.
Maybe the night, she said. Before I go to sleepâ¦.I think what I did during the day and what Iâm going to next dayâ¦
Perfect, Mihai said. Imagine that itâs that time of the day. You finished everything you had to do, you can relax.
The rehearsals continued. Selena was reading the script. Her character intrigued her. But mostly, he was intrigued by another character: Mihaiâs one. Since they had to spend a lot of time together, she was fascinated by him. His authorial attitude disappeared and at his place there was a relaxed young man with a hot sense of humor. Selena didnât know what to think anymore. He let her to take breaks all the time. A lot of time they talked about arguments that hadnât any connection with the movie. They talked a lot about anything like childhood, dreams and about how she always wanted to play in a movie. He encouraged her so much. They they laughed a lot about her clumsiness at work. Selena almost forgot sometimes where she was. It felt like at a picnic in a nice park looking at the sky. She started to think that he was playing a game.
So, one night, before bed she had an idea.
IV Nocturnal Adventures
She watched an action movie about some thieves that entered in the house of a rich guy. In the movie they showed how they get away with alarms and bodyguards until the room where they have stolen values objects and no one saw them.
What if she would have tried that?
She was aware of the crazy idea, but during her childhood she felt in love with an older guy. He was living next door. He was very mysterious, he didnât talk to anyone, nobody knew anything about him, he just smiled sometimes to her. She decided then that she wanted to know him better, to see how was he in private, how his home was. In her child mind, enter in his house meant discovering his mystery⦠she didnât had difficulties to go up until the window of the mysterious neighbour. The window was openâ¦she went in without making any noise. She admired him sleeping and she let him a letter where she confessed her love and she sign: your neighbour.
The next morning she was waiting with impatience for him but he never came. She learned later that the neighbours moved. The young guy left, his very first love. She tried to inform about the letter but she never found anything. She learned in that moment that love itâs not just nice things and pinky heart, but itâs also pain.
Inspired by these childhood memories, Selena decided that also now the feelings for Mihai wasnât loveâ¦she didnât feel butterflies in her stomach when she was thinking about him. It was mostly curiosity; she needed to know more about the man she was spending time daily. She didnât know so many things about him, just that he was cold and bossy, a good actor and also a good friend to pass time with. She felt that seeing his house, she would have discovered his dirty secrets that media would have paid a lot to have. Like that she would have had him in his hands.
She found easily his address; she looked in Emilianâs office where he was keeping the dossier of each teacher.
Mihaiâs house was in city centerâ¦it wouldnât be easy. She was wondering if his house was a huge expensive one or a classic and simple one. She wasnât far from the truth; it was a one floor house, modern and simple. He had a huge garden though full of grass, flowers and trees. Selena thought it was a perfect place for children and a dog. She was thinking that should have been nice to live in a house with garden. Mostly in city center, next to everything.
Pretending that she was looking for an address, she did a couple of tours around the house. At that time of the day there was no one. She just was a little old man around that probably was the concierge of the house. She also saw the balcony that Mihai was talking aboutâ¦it was very beautiful. That would have been the point of her mission.
She decided to do it that same night.
It wasnât easy. She needed all the courage in the world.
Dressed like a ninja or like a secret agent in special mission, in the middle of the night she was in front of his house. The backyard of the house was less illuminated so she decided she would have entered by there. She didnât see anyone. Selena tried to stay in the shadow succeeding on passing unobserved.
All the windows were in the dark. She was just hearing the windâs noise. Perfect to attack.
It was very easy to cross the yard. She felt like a thief from movies. She passed next to the silent trees and she was expecting to fall in a trap because she was in enemy territory. Just like in the movies. She managed to get on the balcony. From there you were able to have a nice view of the city, a perfect place to meditate. She understood why Mihai liked to stay there in the morning drinking his coffee.
But there was no time for meditation. She took a thing from her backpack and she placed it on the iron table next to the fresh flowers. He would have seen this the next morning.
Then she heard some noises. She froze. Earlier there were no lights and zero noisesâ¦She stick on the wall and she slide in the garden. She heard steps. Someone woke up, probably Mihai and he was going to the balcony. Omg, he was going to catch her and she would have been ashamed all her life.
She started to run. She felt and hurt her knee but she didnât want to scream even she would have wanted to. She turned her head a lot of times because she had the impression that Mihai was following her. She took the taxi that was passing there. Perfect timing. Finally she was home after a while and she felt on her bed exhausted.
The next days, nothing happened. Mihai didnât really realize that someone entered in his house? Or her adventure was just a dream and never happened? That couldnât be because her knee hurt like hell. She felt like a hero from action moviesâ¦she managed to enter in a celebrityâs house without being caught. She was already thinking to tell Mihai that was pretty easy to get in his house and that he would improve his security.
Nervously, she went to Mihaiâs class. She blathered more and she was red all the time, but everything seemed the same. Mihai didnât seem to have something to say.
The answer wasnât arriving. She checked her email every day. Nothing. The message didnât arrive? She risked her life for nothing? She was frustrated a little bit.
Even if she didnât want to, she had to concentrate on her work.
The next days she studied the script of the movie. Mihai was one of the producers of the movie and still he chose her for the role. Such an honor! She was still trilled. He intrigued her more and more.
She was trying to feel deeply the sad love story that could be anyoneâs love story. She was scared by the role, but most of the time she felt trilled and she couldnât wait to play in this movie. The movie was going to be emotional and she was going to play next to a famous actor; but she was also feeling sad thinking about the tragic Loreleiâs role. She didnât expect someone like Mihai to contribute to this kind of project. She didnât know him at allâ¦If she would have seen his place that night maybe she would have known more about him.
