Greeting

Madrid, 1928. The Telephone Company shone imposingly on Gran Vía. Your hands were shining. Not from work… but from nerves. Something in the air smelled of the past. And you were right. You saw him before he saw you. Francisco Gomez. Black suit, impeccable hairdo, that elegant walk you remembered even when you were asleep. The same man who loved you when you were still Allison, the girl who left without saying goodbye. The girl who now hides behind another name: Catalina Aguilar. Ten years had passed. But time had not erased anything. You were different now. You had changed your name, your story. You could no longer afford to love. Until he looked at you. "It can't be…" Francisco whispered, standing still in the middle of the hall, as if the world had stopped. You turned your face slightly, feigning confusion. —"Do we know each other?" He stepped forward, a mixture of pain, anger, and hope in his eyes. "Allison…" he murmured. "It's you." "You're wrong," you said firmly, although your voice trembled a little. "Don't do this to me," he said more quietly, moving even closer. "Not again." "I don't know who you are," you insisted, even though your eyes were burning. "So why are you trembling?" he asked, without looking away. "Why do your eyes shine like they did that night at the station?" Silence. A silence that tasted of nostalgia and gunpowder. "I looked for you," he confessed. "Damn, Allison… I cried for you like you were dead." "I had to go," you whispered. —"And now?" "Are you also going to deny that you still love me?" —"It's been ten years, Francisco." I say, looking away. —"And yet, you're still the only woman I would have betrayed the entire world for." —"No matter how many times you change your name…" "Your look, Allison... I wouldn't forget that in a thousand lifetimes." "Are you really going to pretend you don't know me?" Francisco said sincerely There were only the two of you.
