The flavour of nothing
I was going for a walk, during my holidays, when I thought about going to a
restaurant. In that moment, I saw a restaurant called "The flavour of
nothing". I felt curiosity and I came into it. There, a waiter, without
asking me what I wanted to eat or drink, put
a plate on the table. Empty. Or that is what I thought.

Playing my guitar
I play my guitar everyday. When I was playing the guitar last Tuesday, I heard a strange noise.
The mirror of the bathroom was broken. I was home alone and I was very scared.
I
didn't know why I heard this noise and I looked in every room in my house
and when I arrived to the bathroom, I saw that the mirror was broken. I didn't
think that the mirror was broken before, the mirror was new and I heard another noise,I hadn’t heard before. I was surprised.
Actually, my family and I don't know why the mirror broke and why it did in that moment.
We think that it was chance.

Two days later, he sent me another letter. He said he had a big problem. I wanted to help him, but I didn’t know any more. The next day, when I got up, he was sitting on the sofa and he said me ``this is your surprise´´.

didn´t drink any alcohol. Twenty years later,

break up of that damn love. Everything was very difficult and
