"... He added a frilly sleeping cap, and for good measure, dabbed some of Granny's perfume behind his pointy hears. A few minute later, Red Riding Hood knocked on the d- "
- Okey but, wait: first, how can a wolf speak? And why the Red Riding Hood did speak to him? It's so weird! Then, the wolf can't pretend to be Granny, he's too tall! And... furry! It's never gonna work because the girl will know about the trick.
- Well, it's a tale so make things look like the exact reality is not the point. You see? Let me tell you what happen next okey? You'll see.
- Hum, I don't know..."
The boy who was reading put the book on the bed.
" Okey, what if you tell me what happens?
- What?
- Usually, when I, you are completely capture in the story. But tonight, I see that you're not interesting by it. You look tired, concerned by something."
The other little boy, smaller, brought his legs against him, chin on his knees, and looked away from the girl. She insisted, not ready to let his little friend like this.
" Come on Lukas, you know you can tell me everything."
He inhaled and rubbed his eyes, clearly exhausted.
" I heard mom telling you're not real... She said I invented you, like if you were only in my head...
- And you think what is in your head is not real?
- No, it's not that, it's just... you know... she can't see you.
- Look, your mom is right and wrong at the same time. She is right when she says she can't see me. Only you can. And that's what makes me so special! But that doesn't mean I am not real! Whatever she says, I'll be there for you anytime you need me okay? I am like these tales: I am imaginary at the same time I'm the more real thing in your eyes. I am a part of your reality, that's what matters.
- That doesn't make any sense.
- I know. So... wanna create one?
- One what?
- A sense to your reality! Let's to this together! And when you will be ready, you will leave me in a part of your world, like an important detail that helped you to be who you are.
- But what if I make real friends?
- I hope so! And if you don't, I will kick your ass.
- Hey!"
Both boys laughed out loud. The taller take back the tale book.
" So! You let me finish that book now?
- Okey, okey.
- Where were we?
- The wolf was gonna disguise himself into the grandmother. And I have to say that's still a story of nonsense for me.
- That is why we'll make it one too!"
