Edna had dressed in the living room, because, the night before, she had not had time to put her clothes in his place and yet they were among the boxes.
Thens he went to the kitchen, to make coffee. She had been tempted to buy a coffee maker, but she had learned to make the best coffee in the world, thanks to the advice an old Thai. And she, how always liked the coffee, now feel like a teacher.
Instead of using a coffee maker random, her method lay in a large metal jug, and a small closed colander, the old fashioned way. She put water, the strainer with coffee inside, and put the water on to boil. The trick was to not let the water boil. When the water reached that point, she put out of the fire, wait five minutes, and re-heating. And that method should repeat three times. It took longer, but that drink out without that flavor to scorched earth, very typical of common cafes. On the contrary, coffee was strong flavor, tasty, appetizing.
She was watching the water when she heard Sam nearby. Then she felt a pair of hands on her shoulders, which fell gently down her back to her waist, and then they surrounded her in a hug.
He stilled, squeezing her, with his chin on her shoulder, watching her make coffee.
- ¿You don't want a coffee maker?- He asked at last- This seems a little laborious...
- You tell me after you taste it...
- All I want to taste, is you- He kissed her neck.
- Half an hour ago you could not move... And you're back...
- I know… And I was worried that I will not free up enough. ¿Was not it you did not know if you was good or not?
- I know a lot of theory, remember I like medicine... - She took the coffee out the fire- But i know very little in practice. I already told you, my "experiences" were all very bad...
- Almost all- He caressed her stomach.
- Almost all- She laughed, turning around, to face him- You're always the exception to the rule.
- I want to hear every one of your bad experiences- He looked at her eyes.
- Is not much really... Apparently none of them knew how to use his penis as they should...
- ¿And none of them knew is there mouth and hands?
- ¿What are you talking about?
- ¿Did not you ever masturbated or what?
- ¡Sam!- She knocked him softly, blushing.
- Tomatedna not lie- He smiled- I take that as a yes.
- ¿What does that matter? God…
- That if you can come, your own, without a penis... A man also can...
- Yes, but it seems that none of these knew it...
- I know- He squeezed her a little- ¿You want me to show you?
- Samy, there is much to do... There are hundreds of things to accommodate, starting with drinking coffee... Leave it for tomorrow ¿Yes?
He smiled, as if she had said he would be the best date of his life.
Shortly after both they were on the table, drinking coffee with a packet of biscuits, sitting on the chairs, still with their protective plastic, and surrounded by boxes.
- What good is this, Edy- He tasted it- And even before, you did it very good... But you are better...
- I told you… But, hey, I cook like a shit, I have to do something well ¿Right?- She took a swig.
- Before you were also very good with pastries- He took a cookie- ¿Are you still the same?
- ¿Where do you think I get the material to keep fat my butt and my stomach? Clue, is not cooking normal meal.
- That stomach is the most amazing and comfortable pillow, and your ass is especially appetizing- He gently caressed one of her legs- Trust me…
- If you say it- She ate a cookie, slightly rubbing her chest.
- ¡I forgot something!- He stood up, to see her rub for pain- Don't move.
She watched him walk into the living room, rummaging in the cabinet and return with a fast step, holding out some papers.
- Take- He said- Happy coexistence gift.
The woman looked at him, confused, before reading the papers. Samuel sat next, still, looking her review the information.
- ¿What?- She turned the sheet, reading fast- ¿Leukocytes? ¿Count blood plasma? ¿Peripheral blood? ¿Compatibility Drake-Shaareim?
- Breathe- He smiled.
- ¿We're compatible? ¿What? But… ¿What? ¿When did you do this?- She looked him, surprised.
- ¿Do you think that while you were bringing things from Thailand, I was on vacations? And is other, from Nathan. You are also compatible with him, but the hell, that's why I'm with you...
- ¿You went to the doctor? ¿Did he tell you the risks? ¿Do you know the complications?
- Yes, Edy, Yes... Yes all that... I give a shit. I want that those beautiful ribs stop hurting you.
- Samy...- She was emotional.
Edna get up from her seat, only to hug him tightly, shackled in his neck. He just smiled, rubbing her back, but soon he heard her sobbing on his shoulder.
- Hey...- He hug her stronger, slightly worried- Edy ¿What happen princess?
- I…- She murmured- Thank you… Thank you honey…
- That's what I'm here, my love…
- I…- She whimper, crying- God... I... was resigned... that hurt me... forever... And... since… so many years... I'm not happy... I thought... I thought I'd die... alone... and sad... Samy...
- Edy...- Samuel felt his soul was compressed and his eyes were charged with anguish- Don't cry Edy... I... just do everything to see you happy...
- You're… the best thing… that could happen… to me…- She cried.
- You make me cry... too...- He hid his face in her neck- You silly...
Drake did not know exactly why he was crying. Maybe because he loved her too much to see her sad, maybe because with her, he could cry freely.
Both stood still, cuddled, emptying their sorrows in the hands of the other.
