Nylla smiles, breaking the silence. She headed for her room and returned with several bags and boxes.
Nylla: (happily) I brought back a few things from the capital for both of you. Small gifts to thank you for supporting me.
Line and Wilson exchanged a curious look. They didn't expect that.
Nylla stretched out a line bag:
Nylla: (happily) for you, sister. A little scent and makeup of the capital. I know you like these things.
Line took the bag, smiling:
Line: (seriously) thank you, Nylla. It's very kind of you.
Nylla stretched a Wilson box:
Nylla: (happily) and for you, Wilson. A little cognac and watches of the capital.
I know you appreciate these things.
Wilson took the box, smiling:
Wilson: (seriously) thank you, Nylla. It's very generous on your part.
Nylla smiles, seeming satisfied:
Nylla: (happily) of nothing. I just wanted to thank you for everything you have done for me.
But while Nylla smiled, her gaze hid something darker ...
Line was curious to know what her little sister had done to the capital. She wanted to know the details of her life there.
While Nylla was putting her things in the room. Line entered and sat on the bed.
Line: (curiously) Nylla, can you tell me a little about your life in the capital?
What did you do there?
Nylla turned around, smiling:
Nylla: (happily) of course, sister. What do you want to know?
Line: (curiously) everything. How was your daily life? What did you do to have fun?
Nylla laughs:
Nylla: (happily) Well, my daily life was rather busy. I had lessons at university, homework to do ... But I also found the time to have fun.
Line: (curiously) how do you mean?
Nylla: (happily) Well, I discovered the nightlife of the capital. I met friends, interesting people ... We went to clubs, concerts ...
Line: (curiously) concerts? What kind of music were you listening to?
Nylla: (happily) Oh, all kinds of music. Rock, pop, electro ...
Line: (curiously) and the boys? Was there boys in your life there?
Nylla blushes slightly, smiling:
Nylla: (happily) Well, there were a few. But nothing serious.
During her three years in the capital, Nylla had changed a lot. She had discovered a new city, new cultures and new people.
She had easily integrated her new university, where she had studied law with passion. She had met friends, interesting and open -minded people.
But Nylla had also changed on a personal level. She had discovered new self -confidence, new insurance. She had learned to assert herself, defend herself and be independent.
She had also discovered the joys of nightlife, nightclub outings and concerts. She had even had some boyfriends, but nothing serious.
Despite everything, Nylla had never forgotten Wilson. She often thought of him, wondering what he was doing, if he was happy with Line.
She had even kept the piece of paper on which she had written her message, the one she had left to her before leaving. She had often reread it, wondering if Wilson had thought about it.
