thinking that I will never find a suitable one. I find so much rubbish
around and so expensive. I either find a rich man or a rich lady or I
might move back to Naples by the end of Summer. Money is never enough
and despite I earn good money, it goes so quickly. When I met Romano,
I was in Naples walking down the road where all nativity statues and
plastics are shown during the month of December, San Gregorio Armeno.
He just asked for some information and the person he asked to was
ready to fuck him taking him somewhere to sell him some original
statues of the 16th Century at the price of a modern one. I wasn't
sure whether intervene or not. I thought, in a way, that if people
want to get screwed, they should have the right to do so but I saw
that the man had a sweet face and he was trying to be nice to the
crook and not offend him saying that he didn't give half a shit about
the statues of the 16th Century. So, I asked the guy to show me the
statues and I would have bought them all being myself an employee of
the Capodimonte Museum and we are always looking for precious pieces.
I didn't even rich the end of the sentence, he was gone. He thanked me
saying that he knew it was a crook but he felt that giving the guy a
20 euro would not have changed his life while the boy would have been
happy. So, I asked him to give me 20 euro as I would have been very
happy too. He laughed and took 50 euro from his pocket and told me to
have a nice Xmas. I gave them back to him but he insisted to the point
that I felt really offended by that. He understood and told me that he
was joking and asked me if I fancied something to eat, a pizza, perhaps.
We went to eat at a popular pizzeria and he really showed appreciation
for Neapolitan food. We met in the evening again and I took him to eat
Mussels Soup and Caponata. He loved every bit of it. On Christmas day
he came back to Naples, surprising me and offering me the opportunity
to work in his gym as Pilate instructor. I qualified 2 years earlier
and I had worked here and there. The idea of changing life and go away
from my past excited me soooooo much! YES! When do I move? And I moved
to Rome with him after new year's celebrations.
It became very clear that Romano was in love with me so I have made
clear that I cannot reciprocate his feelings because I am a lesbian.
He took it as if I said, I am Catholic or Pentecostal... As if it was
just a detail. "So what?" was his point "I am asking for love, not for
sex". I found him so sweet, the first time I felt a sort of maternal
feeling for a man. So, we continued staying together until I invited,
once, a lesbian girl I met on the net, for dinner. He didn't
appreciate and Maria, the name of the girl, left soon after dinner.
Since then, no more visitors and no more talks with Romano about my
dates and friends. He is terribly jealous. I must find a place! My
budget is not that high, unfortunately.
Anyway, 14:20 and still not eaten. this blog takes a lot of time! And
I hope I will manage to read it too, sometimes as I do not correct
errors and so on... I am sure you will forgive all the errors, English
is not my language and I am not a typist!
kisses!
