the sweetness of unknown – Monika Machútová

when we came to La Spezia, it was actually Friday. you might think: Friday evening, two young girls in an umfamiliar city, they must have gone to a bar for a drink or some party, so they can meet new peoplw and flirt with boys. well, you are absolutely wrong. gravely mistaken. after taking a shower, Sara came from the bathroom, angry and swearing thet thet she wanted to open the window in order to let some air in, but but apparently there were people talking in the street, right under our windows. she poked her head out of the window and saw some girls on the motorbikes, recording TikTok videos. then she looked at me, placing her hands on her hips, with words "should I yell at them to be quiet now or should I wait for a while? I wanna go to sleep!"
