I layed in my bed, sleepless.

It was already 11:47 p.m. .

I haven't been able to sleep well for days, if only for a maximum, and I mean a maximum of 20 minutes.

My father was already asleep, but he deserved it. After all, he is the famous James Gordon.

He works hard and makes Gotham safe for the residents.

I got out of bed, left my room and headed for the kitchen.

Maybe we had sleeping pills in our medicine cabinet, but no such thing.

So I sat down on the chair that was at the dining table and thought about it, but I couldn't think of anything.

So I sat there clueless, sleepless, stupid.

I snorted and left the kitchen on my way back to the room...

but I stand still in the hallway.

"If I can't sleep..." I thought briefly, staring at the apartment door.

"Then I can go to the park." I decided a little confidently.

So I grabbed: mobile phone, apartment key and everything else I needed.

I put on my gray coat and my white flat shoes.

Then I went out the door.

------------------------------------------------------

5 minutes later I've arrived at the park.

The park wasn't far from our apartment so I could walk.

I looked around, there wasn't much going on.

It was very pleasantly quiet, the wind blew through my blond hair and I closed my eyes for a moment.

I took a deep breath in and then out again, opened my eyes and walked towards a small café.

It was called "café de gotham", not very imaginative.

Then I entered it and immediately headed for my favorite place, it was in the far left corner, a table with two chairs.

I sat down and looked at the small menu.

"Gina?" asked a familiar voice.

I dared to look up and saw my friend Anni, she worked here in the café.

Anni was 19, had dark hair, light eyes and was as tall as me.

I got up and hugged her kindly.

"Hey." Just came out.

,,What are you doing here? Isn't it a bit late?" she asked.

"I can't sleep." I replied curtly.

I sat down again and she sat across from me.

"What's keeping you awake?"

"I don't know I have a weird feeling... it feels like I can float and fall at the same time."

There was an awkward silence between us.

"What do you want to order?" She asked me.

"A strawberry milkshake with chocolate sauce, please."

She wrote it down and
disappeared from my sight.
------------------------------------------------------

after what felt like an eternity she came back with my shake in her hand and put it down in front of me, then she sat back down on her chair.

"Did you found a boyfriend?" she asked me as I was about to drink my shake.

,,Nope."

she just nodded in understanding.

"Are you in love?"

,,no..."

"Ok, so that's not going to work with aunti." She pouted ironically.

I hit her lightly on the shoulder and we both couldn't help but laugh.

It was always fun with Anni, she always managed to cheer me up, I'm very happy that we met and became friends.

We chatted for a while and laughed a lot until I had to leave.

"I hope you come visit me more often, it's boring without you. You bring life into this gray box" she pointed to the café.

,,Sure! If I have time, I'll come!"

"I hope so for you! Take care when you go home." She waved.

I nodded and then waved her back.

it was still dark, so i went to the fountain to enjoy the silence for a bit.

I just loved it, the silence, the wind, no one getting on your nerves.

I sat down on a bench by the well.

I closed my eyes and thought a little.

I thought about what my future will look like...? will I have children? a husband? or wife?

I'll probably die alone, I don't have a problem with that either.

I slowly opened my eyes again.

I saw a boy sitting on the bench across from me.

he was pretty He was wearing a dark coat, jeans, black shoes.

I think his hair was styled.

The hair color was...

Red.
