- "...well, I'll probably end up asking for a job interview with your boss, if you don't mind"
- "Mate, are you kidding? Go ahead. It would be lovely to have you as a coworker!"
- The white ball moved swiftly across the table and hit #2. The blue ball bumped on the edges twice then slowly went to corner pocket, just stopping a mere 2cm in front of it
- "...fuuuuuck."
- "...thanks for the gift, anon"
- "You're...welcome...hey, Dave what about your friends? Weren't they supposed to come too?"
- "...u-uh?"
- Startled by the question, Dave missed the shot: the white ball barely grazed #2, who barely moved then stood in its original place
- "...that's cheating"
- "I prefer the term 'simple question'. So, what about your friends?"
- "They should be here in a moment....oh, here they are!"
- Anon, craftily waiting with the cue resting in his hands, turned his head to the entrance. A small bunch of 6-7 people were getting near their table.
- "...doctor Davidhouse..." said a big guy leading the group "Still losing, I see."
- "...he cheats"
- "...'talks', Dave" pointed out Anon "Talks. It's different".
- "Still cheating. Alex, this cheater is Anon. Cheater, this is Alex."
- "Glad to meet you, Anon".
- "Same, mate"
- Alex's firm handshake nearly broke Anon's hand.
- "Come on", said Dave "I'll introduce you to the guys"
- "Sure...ow..."
- "So...this is Alvise. Al, Anon""
- "Hi mate" "Hi"
- "Bob"
- "Hey Bob" "Glad to meet you"
- "Bob's girlfriend, Elena"
- "Enchantè" "Hi Anon, thanks"
- "Matt, the linux guy I told you"
- "Oh, hi Matt...Fedora here" "...Arch. But nice to meet you anwyay"
- "Bob the Second"
- "Roberto, nice to meet you" "Same"
- "...aaaand...wait I don't think I know you..."
- 'You' was referring to a small girl with blond hair, standing right at the end of the group. She looked at Dave, then at Anon, then smiled warmly.
- "No, pal, you're right. We've never met."
- "Ah, she's a cousin of Andrea" said Alex "Davide, Anon, this is Sara"
- "Well, hello then, Sara" said Dave.
- "Hi, Dave"
- Her accent was weird. Anon tried to get a grasp of it, but it didn't sound like anything remotely 'near'. Still, it had something...familiar...
- "Hello, Anon"
- While shaking hands, her eyes and Anon's meet. Green, like a grassy field after a rainstorm. They felt...warm, friendly. Somewhat homely. But also deep. Right under them, a handful of cute freckles graced her sunny, smiling cheeks.
- '...like flowers scattered on a meadow', thought instinctively anon.
- "Uh, pal?"
- "...uh...?"
- "...you can let my hand go, now"
- Anon realized he had been holding Sara's hand for a bit too much, so he suddendly let it go, blushing.
- "Ah, my bad...I was...uh...staring at your lovely freckles"
- "...aw, thanks. Your nose looks cute, too." and by saying this she passed him by, smiling.
- '...my...nose?' thought Anon 'Well, that's new'
- The rest of the evening went smoothly. Anon had a lot of fun, and a handful of intersting matches. His attention, tho, had completely been caught by the 'new' girl, Sara. Under the green eyes and the 'flowerckles' there was actually a very pretty girl, at least to his eyes. A nice figure, neither too slim nor bulky; a refined profile, embellished by a cute girly nose; the hair, especially, under the neon lights of the room, seemed to have the same color of wheat fields. As a nice touch, also, she was wearing a red bow on it.
