Chapter 55 A Little Bit Of Normality And Lightness

• Three days have passed since we arrived in New York. After the disastrous experience with the morning coffee, I chose my meals more carefully, opting for familiar dishes. As a result, the terrible nausea has decreased and I hope it stops altogether.
• Even though I knew this trip would be for business, I confess that I missed having Matteo by my side, but I tried not to show it. To overcome the boredom that accompanied me during these days, I tried to keep myself distracted by exploring the hotel premises, always in the almost imperceptible company of Luca and other soldiers.
• On the morning of the third day, I am surprised to wake up with Matteo lying next to me. His back rests on the mattress, one arm extended towards me and the other resting on his chest. Apparently, in a peaceful sleep.
