The result was that he had not even perceived her. “And if he didn’t even perceive me, it means that for him I don’t exist,” she said. “I am not part of reality.” “You are not part of his reality but you certainly exist,” Armelinda said, “and we know it very well because we poor martyrs see you every day, hug you when you’re sad, and hear your delirious sighs.” “They are not delirious,” Rosaria sulked. “But why do you want to know his name if you have no intention of approaching him? Be sincere, we are your friends.” Rosaria confessed. Actually, she wanted to know his name to search for him on Facebook. This way she could request him as a friend.

For the moment let’s leave it aside. What else? Yes, none of our friends know him, and we have never met him at the cinema or in the other places where we usually go. Skin colour: black; height: 1.75m; athletic body.” Rosaria sighed.
