Mateo & Cristian | 17th October

A much needed and well-deserved vacation, I assume? Bali sounds like it would be incredible, I cannot wait to hear about it. Was this a spontaneous decision?

My “everything” is not as interesting as yours, I can say that for certain! I’ve been bust preparing student reports, so nothing very fun.

Much needed. We’re back now but it was amazing. It was kinda planned but very last minute planned.

That can’t be everything that’s been going on surely.

What field did you graduate into? I had a struggle getting a permanent position, but that was expected going into teaching. I did spend a lot of time worrying about whether or not I would even find something full-time, but a few years down the road I managed to grab a position.

I’m sorry to hear that these interviews haven’t been going in your favor, that’s always very disheartening.

I majored in English with a minor in creative writing. I don’t even know what to do in terms of looking at a career. I just need something to occupy my time with. Something that will get me out of my parents house and living on my own.

What an incredible talent you have! Artists are amazing, especially artists who tackle things like a mural. What is it of?

To be honest, I have not had much going on. I won’t complain about that, of course, it’s been nice.

It’s not really of anything. It’s just kinda on a wall in a club. I went with vibes you know?

I suppose that’s better than being stressed.

But I Want You More, I Want You More, As If I’d Never Said Before...

[Cristian @cristian-rosasco & Diana || August 18th 2019]

The morning light was filling the room, falling over Diana as she slowly opened her eyes and the first thing she noticed was that Cristian wasn’t in bed with her. She gave a small pout to nobody in particular before she stretched out long, only to relax back against the mattress. The past week had been perfect. She had shown him around some of the more important locations of Scotland, and she was hoping that he had enjoyed it as much as she had. She wanted him to like her home. However, being back in Rome was bittersweet. She would be going back to Columbia, back to the busy routine, back to the hospital and back to work. Although she was excited to be back in the thick of it, and back to doing what she was passionate about, she couldn’t help but feel a little tug of sadness at saying goodbye. Fortunately, the lattice ensured they would see each other, but long moments together would be out of the question for some time.

Dragging herself out of bed, made a quick stop in the bathroom before making her way out of the room to find Cristian. She decided not to worry about changing, still wearing one of his shirts, and a pair of small shorts that could hardly be seen from how long the shirt was on her. Diana made her way to the kitchen, finding Cristian there, and the smell of breakfast filling the air. A soft smile played on her face as she made her way to him and wrapped her arms around him from behind. She rested her cheek against him as she held onto him. “Good morning, you should’ve woken me up. I could’ve helped with breakfast.” She turned her head to place a kiss on his back before resting her cheek against him again.

I’m afraid I do not know much of the details, but I will pass along my condolences. No matter how much time passes there is always difficulty when the anniversary approaches.

I’m glad to know that you are taking the time to celebrate her life instead of wallowing, it does make things a little easier to cope with.

I’m somewhat disappointed in myself for reacting so badly to it all. I really thought I would have dealt with it all a little more by now.

The idea of chilly weather puts me in such a sour mood, I’m not a huge fan. I prefer my days sunny, not damp and grey. I suppose that kind of weather is actually heading my way, what a shame.

Funnily enough I believe I’ll be visiting Scotland in the upcoming week, and I’m rather excited. I’ve never been so I’m looking forward to seeing some new things.

Truly? Even the thought of rain on the windows while a fire crackles in the fire place? Baggy soft sweaters, cups of tea, a new book and the smell of the pine Christmas tree filling the house? I couldn’t be sour. I suppose living in Italy, being so close to the Mediterranean there is a very different culture to Summer there!

What brings you to fair Alba? What have you got planned?

@cristian-rosasco

It’s amazing what being around people can do sometimes, isn’t it? I know it’s not the easiest thing to put yourself in the line of, but I’ve always found it helpful.

I am always happy to make plans! What do you like to do? Let’s start with that.

I haven’t really been around people consistently for a while so I wanted to make a change. 

You know, someone else asked me that same question. It’s such a vague question with a hundred different answers.

Are You Really Drawn In and Do You Think of Me Often || 

Cristian​ & Diana

[Takes place June 15th/16th. At the end of, after Rey’s Graduation Party]

As the party began to wind down there was one thing that was evident in her mind, but it wasn’t something she wanted to think of at that moment. Diana’s eyes fell on Cristian, and she had a brief moment where she wondered at her luck. She’d asked him to come with her to this graduation party with no expectations, but all hope. Still, she thought back over their initial conversation, the trip to Rome, the conversations since, the potential visit to Scotland if all worked out and she knew there had to be some chance. He had said yes, and that fact continued to bring a smile to her face whenever she thought of it. Although she had dedicated time to seeing friends, and introducing friends of hers to him so that he never once felt isolated throughout the evening, her favorite moments were still those where they were together and talking on their own.

However, the fact remained that they would have to leave soon, and the end of the party would mean the end of a moment in time that she wished she could freeze. With a small sigh, her eyes met his and she said, “It’s getting late... and it looks like people are heading out. I know we both have some way to go, to get home. We should probably go...” Her voice trailed off for a moment because she really would prefer not going. Knowing the schedule for the Lattice, if she was hoping to get home, she knew she would have to be at the station soon enough. Goodbyes to everyone at the party were quick enough, so that she had plenty of time to still get to the Lattice station.

As it stood, she would be losing hours with the time change alone, going back to the east coast. Even worse, she felt terrible for all the time that Cristian would be losing going back home. Her mind was still going over this very fact by the time they’d reached the Lattice, and she wondered if she were to ask him to stay in New York City, what he would think or say. Pushing that thought aside for the time being, she looked back up at him as they waited, a smile spreading over her face again as she took in the sight of him. “Thank you for coming with me. I hope that you had a good time. I know it’s a bit of a long trip for all of this, but I’m glad that you came with me.” Admitting this caused a soft blush to cover her cheeks, and she averted her eyes. Was it okay to say that? She wasn’t sure, but it was true, and she so happy that she couldn’t help it.
