"What are you doing here?".
"And you? You didn't even say goodby to us, Avril wanted to kill me for days thinking it was my fault".
"I just wanted a little freedom and I took it, I'm no longer a child now".
"Marlene, you left me speechless, I never expected this from you, I thought you were..."
"In love with you? How could I deny it, but we have to look at the future, and I have never been in your plans. "
"Go back to the police station Marlene, your place is there, with me and Avril".
"But what is your problem? I don't understand, you have never deigned to look at me, and now that I have finally decided to leave you not only follow me, but you also think you have the right to tell me what to do with my life!"
"Calm down". It wasn't his usual stiff tone, it was rather a slightly worried one.
"Disappear, I don't want to see you anymore".
"I'm not leaving you here alone."
"I'm not alone, and I'm a grown woman."
At this point, for the first time, he felt that he no longer had that strength on her, and that he was losing her.
Without thinking he walked over to her and took her hands.
"Do you really want to leave me Marlene?"
Before she could answer this, someone called her.
"Marlene! Here you are!" It was her friend, who seeing her almost in tears hand in hand with a man had thought the worst for her.
With a faint voice, so as not to burst into tears, she said: "Mara... You scared me".
"I'm sorry, but is everything okay? It looks like you saw a ghost. "
It was Laurence this time who interrupted the conversation with a cough.
Recomposed, Marlene introduced them and Mara had the brilliant idea of inviting him to dinner that evening.
