Santi’s car stopped outside the restaurant at 10pm.

He was still wearing his work clothes which were (still) dirty from a long

day in the fish factory. He opened the door and didn’t look

at me as he stood net to our table. It took a long time for

someone to speak. I couldn’t believe he had found us.

“Have you had to eat?” he asked David. I saw panic in

David’s eyes. He is lost for words, but now he just sat

there. Santi took David’s napkin

and threw it on the floor,

. “I’d like to speak to you David.” said

Santi. I felt relieved as both men left the restaurant and

people around me started speaking again. I was worried

and I felt guilty when I had seen the pain in Santi’s eyes.
 both – quietly – never - enough – curiously – quite – even – finally –

freely – still - immediately

Santi and David stood silently in the street,

waiting for the other to speak. “ How long have you been

seeing my wife?” asked Santi, . “About four months,”

replied David. “ Look Santi, I had any intention….” “Shut

up! Don’t you think you’ve done damage?” cried Santi,

causing late-night shoppers to look at the two men

. David was surprised when Santi hit him.

He didn’t think Santi would use violence. He thought that

Santi might walk away and say nothing.

When Maria left the restaurant , she saw

David on the floor. Blood was running from his nose and

onto his white shirt. Santi was standing there, his body

shaking with anger. Almost I took Santi’s

hand and pulled him away.
