Chapter 10
Other than Vincent everything was so trivial; the weekdays were slow frustrating drudgery, my friends were no longer such stimulating company, and concentrating on my studies had become almost impossible, even though the end of the school year was approaching.
My house had taken on a new look; the couch was no longer simply ‘the couch,’ but it was ‘the couch he had taken me on for an entire afternoon,’ the bed had become ‘the bed where he took me with my hands tied,’ the shower was ‘the Shower where he’d seen me naked for the first time,’ and so on, every corner reminded me of him.
Every song reminded me of him... and me. I sang. I put the earphones in and turned my secrets into the notes of old melodic songs without anyone being able to understand.
My parents noticed, but they didn’t do anything about it, they were absorbed with their great plans for the new farmhouse and by the first doubts about the disadvantages that such a step would have caused. They were realizing that the price to make their dream a reality was high, but they didn’t let it discourage them.
Not being very technologically minded, they’d invaded the house with rolls of paper with an architect’s drawings of the new aesthetics of the complex. They wanted me to tell them that they were beautiful and I did, I smiled and complimented, but the idea of moving to that place still gave me indigestion.
I started thinking that maybe I could find a way to stay in Rome. Not with Vincent, I wasn’t so stupid as to expect I might be able to live with him, but I was sure I could attend some kind of course and share an apartment with other students. It would be difficult to convince Dad; he still thought of me as a twelve-year-old, with the same autonomy and needs as a young girl. Soon, willing or un-willingly, he would realize that it was no longer the case.
My family was going to undergo major changes, but for the moment it all seemed like the same old routine. Work, school, home, friends... and as usual, Vincent came to visit Aron on weekday evenings.
He caught Mum and I in the kitchen while I was helping her with a pyramid of profiteroles that she didn’t have time to prepare in the lab.
At first I tried hard not to look at him, feeling an annoying sense of detachment. Then I made some furtive glances, and noticed that the beard growing back to blend with the goatee, giving him an even more mature and distant appearance. God, it seemed so absurd that this man wanted me and that I’d really had sex with him!
I just had to not think about it, I had to pretend that nothing had ever happened and remember how things were before between us.
Vincent was trying to do the same, taking over the kitchen island with Dad and focusing exclusively on what he was saying.
He pointed to an unrolled drawing.
