"So that was the extraordinary story of Emma." Pearl said to me.

I was awestruck during the whole narration. No one had ever interested me with a story like this at night, because I value my sleep more than anything else. But she had left me speechless.
"So did Emma ever manage to succeed in her mission?" I asked Pearl.

"Of course, she did. A few years down the line, she wrote a letter to Nate telling him everything that happened in her life in the past years."

I couldn't make any more comments and ruin this perfect story.
"Are there more stories like this with you?"

"There are many stories in me, indeed. But you'll have to wait for some other night."

"I'll be glad to!"

"Let's go to our rooms now. It's late. Take care!" saying this she smiled.

"Good night." I smiled back.
