Carlos got up and left, and then I heard him go to the pool through the French window.It turns out this one, with the key facing the landscape outside the village gate.He sat on a chair by the pool alive, then took a cigarette from the side and lit it.

By this time, there were already many people gathered in the condominium, dressed in suits or black ceremonial dress and giving the deceased their due respect.When I found Lucy, she was sitting on the swing in the back garden. She was wearing a long black dress with some dark embroidery. Her hair was combed with great care, adorned with a small, elegant white flower that was above her ear. As she stared blankly at the peach blossoms, newly born on the trees, a terrible lifelessness radiated from her gaze.With the passing breeze, the delicate flowers left the branches of the trees and fell on her. Over her black dress, the glittering petals were dazzling to the eye. Really blinding.Gently, I plucked the petals from her hair and her dress. At that moment, I felt the need to comfort her, but no suitable words came to mind. Any words I might have said seemed futile.
