THE SCENE OF THE PAINTING :
HER : I don't understand. This morning on the phone, he invited me at his place.

after so many years. I was overjoyed.... I had anticipated this for a long time. I immediatly made my plane reservation... I rushed all day to pack my bags. I almost missed my train for the airport.. I finally arrived.. and nobody was there...I have been waiting for almost an hour outside his house, was this only a joke or was he really sincere?

HIM : What a joy! She is finally here... she has arrived at last....God I like to watch her, fresh and young like spring.. furious as a coming raging storm, beautiful as a bird from paradise among all these flowers.... I must land on my feet again and tell her that I am here and that I love her....that this last hour spent secretely watching her in hiding was the nicest moment of my life... No, I cannot tell her that for the reason that I made her wait all this time... what do I do next?
SUBSEQUENT TO THE SCENE :
Suddenly, she heard a very light noise. She turned around and saw a shadow behind the tree.

She came a little closer and recognized the man she had been waiting for so many years... the one she had loved in silence and had missed all her life.
Nevertheless, she could not forget that long wait, an hour of anguish and she felt like smashing him..... but when she saw his open arms, with this particular smile, she ran to him and he closed his arms around her, and she felt the warmth of him throughout her body. She look at him in the eyes, it was really him, her lost friend, she could not believe what was happening to her.
