Female penguins

-Look at me Diana! – Theresa said desperately.

-I can't... you know why? – Diana replied, not facing her.

-Why!?

-Because every time I look at your blue eyes it reminds me the ocean... And that's what I love most in the world, but I don't want keep loving any part of you, so I don't want to look at you! – she said in a rough away.

-If you pass through that train door you will lose me forever!

-Don't you understand Theresa! I already lose! I lose you right from the moment that I shot you... - Diana didn't dare to face her.

-But I forgave you! It was an accident Diana!

-But I don't, and I will never! I blame myself every day, each hour, all minutes. I hurt you, I broke our deal, you remember? "Never hurt each other" – she cited.

-Well, if you don't want to look at me, at least you will hear what I have to say! Since the first time I saw you, I fall in love! And not just once, because my heart beats faster every morning that we wake up together, every time I hear you deep voice, every moment I feel your touch and specially always I look at you. And not just for your beauty but because of the whirl of emotions I have when you face me!

-Theresa...

-Let me finish now! – she said strict – No matter as much as you try, you can't change it. I love you Diana, I always loved and I always will... I'm falling in love for you right now over again, you know! – she sighed and continued – See! Even when you're trying to abandon me and make me cry rivers I feel this.

-I love you too – Diana said very low.

-What did you say?

-I LOVE YOU TOO – she repeated almost yelling, now facing her.

-That was all I wanted to heard my little girl – Theresa admitted, getting closer.

-But I can't stay with you.

-What...

-I fear that my love for you is not so strong... I'm not sure it is!

-Take a risk!

-What if this doesn't work?

-What if what if what if... That words annoy me! Live the moment Diana. Love is made of them: good, bad, angry, miserable, happy, hard, lovely, cute, unfair... But all moments. They come and go, but they pass through us and we need to enjoy them, we have to!

-So... you understand that I can love you today, but tomorrow might I don't?

-Yeah. But I know that as long as you face me with your sweet look you still love me. When that look disappear, if it disappears, I will know that I have lost you. I promise to fight for you, but I also promise to let you go if I miss our war.

-I think you have no idea what is in game in this war.

-I know what is... an old age full of travels and dusty books to read, lovely times with children and, who knows, grandchildren! Nights taking care of each other, rushed mornings, murders to investigate, visits to new crime scenes and much more.

-Discussions because I didn't sleep at home the last night, constant worries that I can be shot or killed any time, disagreements of what is right to do about the woman who stabbed the husband after he had beaten her – Diana said defeatist.

-That too, and I want to share all those moments with you. And it doesn't need to be here, we can go somewhere else. Far from this place, from this city, but together Diana – this words touch her deeply.

-Come with me! – she begged without thinking.

-To where!?

-I don't know... I actually bought this train ticket and I didn't even look at the destiny.

-So, don't look and come on!

-But wait... What about the work, your family, our house?

-Fuck it! Fuck everything, I just want to be with you now. Love is sacrifice!

-Love is crazy and we are both crazy.

-Let's go! – Theresa pushed her into the train and they sit – The penguin in your t-shirt! You know that when a penguin finds his soulmate, the two stay together forever?

-I didn't... Theresa do you want to be my penguin for the rest of our lives?

-No – she said surprisingly – I want to be your penguin until that shine in your eyes remains, not more not less – she finished sweetly.

-Then we will... – Diana said and pulled her for a very long and lovely kiss.
