Pleased to see me and to hear that my news was apparently nothing serious, and lacking knowledge on the subject of Joseph, my aunt made the same interpretative error that day as I had early on in our relationship. The following winter, she would finally understand my loverâs personality â and she would tell me to run a mile. But at that point, she couldnât imagine that he really believed we were heading towards the destruction of our respective relationships and then ourselves, in that order. Hahaha â but no, really. And thatâs how, once again, Josephâs immense capacity for self-preservation was overlooked. Who will listen to this man, who will understand what he wants?
Not me: itâs still too early and Iâve got my own problems. Iâm his opposite â pure passion, ready to be shaped and fired at a thousand degrees. And when that happens, which isnât very often, Iâm one of those people who donât let anything hold them back. I donât negotiate with moral values. I donât have any, anyway. Itâs like Iâve been raised in the jungle. Iâm okay with the strange and the ill-advised. With pressing the button that reshuffles all the cards. Or the one for big explosions. Iâm up for the widower, the orphan, the megalomaniac and the depressive, as long as heâs interesting. The adolescent crisis, which I never had, is brewing. My lack of restraint feels simultaneously heroic and overwhelming to me. I said goodbye to my aunt at six oâclock, and we hugged each other tight. I went down the stairs as fast as I could, enjoying the spectacular return of my motor function. I was back on my feet again. I wouldnât give up. I wouldnât admit that, in life, itâs entirely possible to pull the plug on passion, even when itâs at its very height.
