Love Parade

CARTE BLANCHE #8

Tonight, I am going to the most important date of my whole lover’s career (to this day). I am going to the date of the unknown: I don’t know if it is a new beginning or an end.

I have thought about my outfit for days and days to find the perfect fit, the perfect mix of chill and sexy.

I planned on getting ready like a vestal before sacred rites to her devoted goddess. I even used the shining hair shampoo and the satined skin body soap. The ones for special occasions (only my best friend’s wedding received the distinguished honor so far).

All of a sudden, yesterday, I got hit by a bus: can you imagine, you look like a queen just to get… dumped! Never mind, I’ll be the most beautiful heartbroken woman of the room then. My tears will run inside and only sparkles of the beautiful ending adventure will shine.

Tonight, I am going to the most important date of my whole lover’s career and I have a new mantra written in my heart: I’d rather have something real and imperfect to remember than an illusion to recover from.

Tonight, I am going to the most important date of my whole lover’s career and I am flying with my love, eyeliner line (very bad idea the eyeliner when your hand is shaking!) and red lips for only shields.

Pray for me, Eros and Psyche, inspirators of this insane adventure, protectors of this cursed story!
