СКАЧАТЬ talking well, but I will not be able to prepare my suitcases. I love you. Bye. -Lisa.

      – I love you too. -Adds Jack, but she has already closed the phone and has not heard his words.

      It doesn’t matter because they often say it. It has even become a habit. For good bye is an obligatory part of their conversation. At the airport she appeared with black wide trousers and a brown shirt, accompanied by a black leather jacket and black high-heeled shoes. So high that it even looks higher than Jack which is over 180 centimeters tall. He appears with a pink shirt with flowers, light jeans and brown boots with a denim jacket over his hand. Airplane is delayed by departure, but at 5:00 pm Moscow time departs to the expected destination. In the evening they are so tired that they go sleeped even without dinner. In the morning while Lisa is still asleep Jack goes out for flowers. His desire to delight a woman, abouth which have feelings, overcome fatigue and at 6:30 am he has already bought a bouquet of Dahlias, four orange and one white, arranged with blue paper and a orange ribbon. Before heading into the room at the 4-star Hotel “Compass’s” on the seafront, stop at the reception and order room service with fruit, waffles, orange juice and pancakes. Entering in the hotel room he sees that Lisa not awakened yet. He leaves the bouquet quietly on the bedside table next to the bed and leans over her, kisses her forehead and squats to the bed. She slightly opens her eyes and shuts them again:

      – What? I want to sleep. -Lisa.

      – It’s time for get up Lis. – Jack answers with smile.

      – I don’t want. – She grumbles and turns her head. Jack goes to the window and pulls the curtains. The sun rays penetrate in the room.

      – Come on, get up.-Jump with the clothes on the bed beside her while smiling. She pulls the blanket from her face and turns to the cabinet. She sees the flowers and her face shines.

      – Jack, what’s that? – Lisa asks.

      – A small gesture. – He says with a smile on his face.

      – Thank you! – She turns and kisses him. Looking themselves for a few seconds with happy expressions when some one tapped on the door. Room service ordered by Jack arrives.

      After delicious breakfast on the terrace from which can see the seaside and some of the beautiful old Dubrovnik buildings, they head to the old town full of sights. Jack is fascinated by the fortresses, architecture and kindness of people. Lisa is not impressed because it’s just buildings for her. They have beautiful ornaments and different architecture from the new ones but they are simple buildings. By 4:00 pm Lisa already wants to go back to the hotel. The evening, they spend at the “Mariano’s” restaurant in the center of the city. A refined place with yellow armchairs, white tables and purple interior. Cheerful colors combined with style appeal to Jack very much, but Lisa is not so impressed and looks thoughtfully. It behaves like her mind is not there, but somewhere else. They eat some specialties of the octopus and shellfish. After then they go to one of the bars recommended by the receptionist at the hotel. After the fun and the exciting day, the following morning at 11:00 am they are still in bed and receive a wake-up call from Jack’s mother:

      – Hello! – Alice.

      – Hello Mom! Why are you calling at this time? – Jack asks quietly.

      – Jack currently is 12 o’clock. – Alice.

      – What? To you is 12 am? – Jack.

      – Yes. How is the vacation?

      – That knows here is 11 o’clock. We are late. – Jack is worried.

      – You are not. You are in vacation.

      – Yes, but I had a plan for lunch in the Trasteno gardens. – Jack.

      – Jack, you have a lot organized. You are weird. – Alice.

      – Not so. – Jack.

      – On the contrary. What is it?

      – Lisa’s still sleeping. Come on, I’ll call you later.

      – All right. Beware. Bye! – Alice.

      – Bye, Mom. – After a few minutes Jack gets up and wakes Lisa.

      The figuralist was tired before the trip she has a race in Italy, then returned to Moscow for a day and suddenly was already in Croatia. And after many places that have been around the day before, she doesn’t want to spend another day touring the city. Lisa decides to stay in the hotel and go to the spa. Jack agrees to leave his beloved, to pamper and go for a walk in the shops. Confident in himself and his desire to be with Lisa he decided to buy a ring. A great surprise would be an offer at New Year’s Eve. Thinking earlier about this, he had no time to choose a jewel to suit his beloved. Before he had been to Dubrovnik for a week was in Vladivostok and when seeing a man and a woman pushed a baby car in his mind been new thought, that it may be is time for him to have a family. After viewing the stores he selects the perfect ring for Lisa. Jack comes back to the hotel and hides the ring well in his suitcase. By 5:00 pm Lisa gets back from the spa and decides to choose clothes for the evening. Jack is in the bathroom and bathes. She chooses a pink dress covering her legs and puts the dress in the bedroom then starts choosing shoes. She took her two suitcases one with shoes and one with clothes, to serching her blue high-heeled shoes. She sat on the couch thinking whether she had taken them or forgot them when she remembered that the shoes were in Jack’s suitcase. Looks at the wardrobe but there are only his shirts and pants. She decided to open him suitcase. Lisa sees the transparent plastic bag with his shoes and takes them. Looking to the right of her shoes she sees a blue box with a ribbon. She stumbles and puts shoes on the ground. Decides to open the box. She take the ribbon and opens it. When she sees the huge white diamond on the platinum ring, she starts to cry. Quickly closes the box and putting back in the suitcase but senses that behind her standing Jack. He looks at her disappointed, because she should not have seen it yet.

      – Dear I… I thought I hid it well. – With a guilty look and a low voice says Jack.

      – No! I say no! -Lisa stands up and turns to him. – My answer is no. I’m not ready for that. -She turns away while crying.

      – Lisa, what is it? I thought you wanted development in our relationship. – Jack.

      – No! I am bored. I can’t go on like this. I don’t know exactly what I want, but I don’t think that you are. -When he hear those words sit down on the bed.

      – I love you. I thought you were feeling the same. – He said with a dim expression and a low voice.

      – I don’t know exactly what I’m feeling. I need of time. – And she sits on the bed beside him.
