My (Delicious) Roommate
Joseph, confused and shaken, squeezes her too.
"What do you mean, Emanuele?" He asks.
The girl closes her eyes.
And begins to sing.
"You're the light of my life, my dear
My love for you will always be near
With every breath that I take
I'll cherish you, my heart awake."
Joseph does not have the courage to let go of his daughter. With a shaky, failing voice, he joins her, murmuring the song he once, twenty years ago, sang to her, holding her in his arms for the first and last time.
