Yesterday i’ve met George again.
Last time when i saw him …. It was when we finished high school … so about 100 years ago.
He came … smiled … shake my hand … and he was so, so friendly.
But suddenly …. he said … “My God! You have absolutely… no idea who i really am.
You don’t recognize me …
Can’t believed it!”
I smiled …. pretending it was not true.
I somehow felt that i know him … that we’ve been great friends into the past … and i really liked his energy … which i felt i knew by a long time … but i could not guess who he was.
Having beard … and white hair … but also 30 kg more that he used to have … he looked today much, much older than me.
I was keep asking into my mind … who the hell this guy is … and how’s that i feel so connected to him?!
But i was not guessing anything … at all.
It was all related with something from so long time ago … and probably life changed him too much.
Seeing me with my retro car …. he suddenly stopes and asks … “What do you do for living?! This is a real nice car … “
“Well … my friend … almost nothing.
In fact it’s a too long story to synthesize it shortly …. but today probably i could define myself as a … writer.
I write books about love …. and other nonsenses.”
George started to laugh … very load.
“Hahahaha! You are joking.
100% you are joking.
I see your after 25 years … driving an amazing retro car …. and you tell me that you are a writer.
Or maybe you had a time … you sold guns and drugs …. and now you just retired …. having enough money into your bank account.
But … Gabriel … let’s suppose you are right … i’d like to give you a test … if you don’t mind.”
“No … not at all … please ask me … “
“Well … you said you write about love …. and that probably could define you as an expert into the subject.
I must be honest with you … like i’ve always been when we’ve been in high school … and had those long discussions about girls.
Today i am married by more than 15 years … but i also have an amazing mistress.
Which actually sounds like a great scenario for any man around 45 …
The only real problem is that recently … i felt something weird.
I the middle of the night … i’ve run away from home … without as my wife to find out … and went to this beautiful girl which i told you about.
We made love … and it was amazing.
But the moment … we finished … i wanted to go home … and this is what i did.
I went home … but … when i’ve arrived … i’ve asked myself …. why the hell i’ve got back?!
What i want to know …. is … what’s wrong with me?!
Why i go to the mistress and then i want to go back home … but when i am home … i’m not understanding why i’ve decided to do that … cause i simple don’t like there.
So …. as an expert into this subject …. can you find an explanation to me?!”
I smiled …
“George … first of all i am not an expert.
I just published close to 40 books … but i don’t consider myself as an expert.
I’m probably the same idiot which you know from high school.
Most probably …. I haven’t changed so much … deep inside myself.
But … on the other hand … i think it’s so, so damn clear … that neither your wife … or that beautiful mistress … is not giving yourself the right energy you are chasing for.
And it’s even worst than that.
You actually … don’t like the dominance of the energies of those ladies.
Probably they both want you … but … your place it’s not there.
You chase for something else … but you don’t have the guts to clearly define it.”
I suddenly see a change on George’s face.
His smile disappeared….
“Yes … Gabriel! You are right! You remained the same idiot from high school … with all those science fiction scenarios from your crazy brain.
But who the hell knows … maybe you are right …. and i just hate hearing these theories …. with energies … which you are telling me about.”
Close to finishing our discussion …. I finally remembered … who George was.
He was totally changed … having a totally different look like in high school.
But deep inside him …. he succeeded to keep that energy … since we were teenagers.
He was still a nice guy …. but lost on the paths of life.
And the energies of those 2 ladies … that really knew what they wanted in life … were for himself so, so dominant.
George wanted to have a free life … to do … whatever he wanted … when he wanted … with who he wanted.
Without …. rules.
Without …. dominance.
… just as we’ve been in high school …. free spirits.
