That evening they were invited to the USO Rainbow Club… They were all there: Tia, Rik, Julia and of course Katsuya with his wife, TC and Tom.
Katsuya greeted everyone and said:
"Morales, TC I have a proposal from the Special Agent in charge Lombard .. would you like to work for the NIS? I know you are thorns in the side, but you are smarts and in this moment you would help us"
"What do you say brother, stay here, in this paradise? I accept ... if you agree too" Morales said.
"You can swear it, brother"
"Congratulations on the new job," Tia told TC and Tom
"Thanks Tia"
"Good. The boss will be happy. See you guys. You'll be summoned soon. Good evening."
"Katsuya" the boys said in chorus
"Hi George," said Julia
Tom walked over to Julia and said "You look beautiful tonight, do you want to dance with me?"
Julia laughed: "Always playing the Don Juan ... but I think I dance with you"
In the background there was a song that had quickly become popular in those years ... "Bei Mir Bist du schön" in the version of Andrew Sister ... the band played it very well ...
🎵Of all the boys I've known, and I've known some🎵
🎵Until I first met you, I was lonesome🎵
🎵And when you came in sight, dear, my heart grew light🎵
They were dancing and he started saying ..
"Julia, I don't want to be a Don Juan with you, I like you a lot and it's true what I told you yesterday, I seem to know you, not only because Rik told me about you. I wish to go out with you, see you, now that I can stay here..."
"Tom, I'm not going to lie, I also feel this familiarity towards you, but I don't know if I'm ready to let someone into my life, I would like to graduate in medicine and work here as a doctor"
"I'll love seeing you in those shoes. I'm not going to get in the way of your life. Let me be a part of it."
🎵And this old world seemed new to me🎵
🎵You're really swell, I have to admit you🎵
🎵Deserve expressions that really fit you🎵
🎵And so I've racked my brain, hoping to explain🎵
"We have known each other for such a short time ..."
"All the more reason to see each other. Do you think that your parents won't consider me a good match for you, even with good reason .."
"No, I don't think so. They trust my judgment and besides you are a hero, a good man and you will be a very good Navy detective."
🎵All the things that you do to me🎵
🎵Bei mir bist du schön, please let me explain🎵
🎵Bei mir bist du schön means you're grand🎵
🎵Bei mir bist du schön, again I'll explain🎵
🎵It means you're the fairest in the land🎵
🎵I could say bella, bella, even sehr wunderbar🎵
"You are so beautiful, intelligent, stubborn, Julia. You drive me crazy when we argue and I don't know what happens to me when I'm with you ..."
She blushed "You, you know how to be so impossible, so insistent, but also so amazing"
As they spoke they had left the dancefloor, they looked straight into each other's eyes. They had come to a balcony ...
In the distance the song could still be heard ...
🎵Each language only helps me tell you how grand you are🎵
🎵I've tried to explain, bei mir bist du schön🎵
🎵So kiss me and say you understand🎵
They approached each other, like magnets, the eyes of one lost in those of the other ... The lips are ever closer ..
"I will never leave you Julia, believe me. I' ll always catch you if you're gonna fall .."
and finally they shared a sweet and passionate kiss .. so much so that she found herself in his arms almost on the ground and closed her eyes ...
"Higgy..Higgy please ... Higgy don't play tricks on me" she opened her eyes again in his arms, his dark eyes worried...
