Hello to all respected readers!
The story is conceived as something more comical and crazy, so don't take it too seriously, although we hope, in any case, to create a memorable story.
The protagonists of the story are Sarah and Dear, twins whom I think you've learned are nothing more than the alter ego of a friend of mine and my friend, and their characters, their behavior and often their life experiences will be the same as ours.
Which one of us is which? You have to leave some secrets, don't you?!
Enjoy reading!
Honey
The university library was almost completely deserted at that time in the early afternoon, it would only crowd in the evening, with the end of all classes. The elderly librarian was dozing from her station, paying no attention to the only girl present who was violating at least half the rules written in cubic characters on signs at the entrance and the walls, at a distance of three meters from each other, so that no student could escape.
Honey was sitting in a bedside table with a lamp, her feet wrapped in black leather boots carelessly resting on the freshly polished wood, next to an empty packet of crisps that had scattered crumbs all over it. In her ears two earphones firing music at full volume, hidden by the undulating carvings and violets that barely touched her shoulders. When he was standing on his lap, he was holding a pack of tobacco and was rolling a cigarette.
He was waiting for his sister Sarah, who had given her an appointment in the library to keep her an entire afternoon on the books for an exam that she had to pass. But she had no intention of being subjected to the dictatorial regime of her twin, and if she really wanted her to open a book she would have to hurry to arrive, because from there in half an hour would begin a secret tournament of video games - organized in the old archive in disuse of the library - which she could not miss.
Between the Evanescence fired at full volume in her ears, and her concentration on trying to close her cigarette well without the filter leaving for her own sake, she didn't notice Sarah's arrival until she pulled out a headset with all the disappointment of this world, causing her to jerk so much that the cigarette fell out of her hand spreading tobacco on the Skyrim logo printed on her black t-shirt.
Honey pointed her green eyes at her sister's identical eyes and gave her a scathing "Was it really necessary?" hissing with narrow teeth.
"Does that sound like a way to be in a library?" replied the other one, trying not to scream.
Honoring the nickname they had sarcastically given her, the video game player simply grunted with irritation, as she shrugged off the now unusable tobacco and stored the iPod and cigarette need in the black bag with the studs resting at the foot of the chair.
Honey was not her real name, but in middle school some classmates had taken to call her that way in the form of teasing, to emphasize in a strange game of opposites the total absence of sweetness in the character of the girl, mostly acidic, grumpy and taciturn, who preferred to fight with someone rather than offer him his friendship. In the end, that nickname had remained sewn on her over the years, but she did not mind, in a way it was almost fun to watch people change their minds about the alleged sweetness that that name could evoke.
She had no real friends, just people to spend time with from time to time, but she couldn't say she felt affection, or she was interested in being understood by. The only people who knew her well, and who nevertheless endured and accepted her - although sometimes they too came to exasperation - were her twin and her boyfriend.
"Anyway, I know that in half an hour there's a video game tournament I don't want to miss," she told her sister without even looking at her, while she was pulling out her notebook with notes on history and medieval mythology, "so put your soul at rest that I won't be here all afternoon!
Sarah gave her a long, severe look.
