They will sleep together. They know it. Each of them knows that the other knows it. But since they are young, chaste and decent, since each of them wants to maintain self-respect and the respect of their partner, since love is something great and poetic and cannot be scared away, they go to dances several times a week and to restaurants to show off their small ritual, mechanical steps. Besides, you have to kill time somehow. They are young, well built, they will have enough for another thirty years. So they don’t rush things, they delay them, and they are right. After they sleep with each other, they will have to find something else to mask the monstrous nonsense of their existence.

Previously, in order to seduce a woman or to keep her, it was necessary to invite her to the theater, to the opera, or to take her on a boat ride on the lake in the Bois de Boulogne. Nowadays, theaters rely on subsidies, operas are performed in prison settings, and the Forest has noticeably lost its former charm. Nowadays it is necessary to pass the test of the Restaurant. You are forced to watch how the object of your heart chews veal kidneys, how the heroine of your dreams decides whether to eat a piece of Camembert or a quarter of fresh, melting brie, you are forced to listen to how the heavenly beauty’s stomach rumbles. Uterine gurgling replaces the sound of kisses, the knock of forks replaces
a declaration of love.
What remains when love is dead? Stomach memories.

A woman with red hair is worth living for.

We were only in that cafe once, but now I can’t drive past it. I try not to do this. We then sat in it for no more than forty minutes, drank - she tea, I two coffee. They talked about nothing, she laughed, and I looked at her - and thought about how I want to take her hand now and never let go. We sat for forty minutes, and this cafe became “our” cafe for me. I can't go there anymore, and the sight of this cafe hurts me. And the boulevards... all the boulevards hurt. And the whole city hurts me continuously. Because she's here. And all those places where we met became simply epicenters of unbearable... excitement, anxiety...

Maybe coffee is a growing-up drink? If you drink it, do you become an adult? The grasshopper believed that this was so. Life obeyed its own laws, not invented by anyone, one of which was coffee and those who drank it. First you are allowed to drink coffee. Then they stop monitoring what time you go to bed. Nobody allows smoking, but you can not allow it in different ways. Therefore, almost all of the older ones smoke, and only one of the younger ones smokes. Seniors who smoke and drink coffee become very nervous - and now they are allowed to turn the lecture hall into a cafe, not sleep at night and not have breakfast. And it all starts with coffee.

My mother is a humble woman. Very, very humble. She is humping in a small cafe, one hour away from our house. She presents the visitors with food and drink, and tells me: “I'm getting on the bus for an hour so I can work all day doing things I hate. Do you want to know why? For your sake, Alexy-don’t-nervous-me! Someday you will start doing things for me that you hate. It's because we're family." What she doesn't grasp is that I'm already doing things for her that I hate. I listen to her when she talks to me. I refrain from complaining about my pygmy pocket funds. And have I already mentioned that I don’t irritate her nearly as much as I would like to. But this is not because we are a family. I do all these things because they are common courtesy. This is an idiom that a hero taught me. And also because I'm not an ass with a fucking hole.

Remember when you left Gotham? Before these events, before Batman? You were gone for seven years. For seven years I waited, hoping that you would not return. Every year I took a vacation. I went to Florence, there is a cafe on the banks of the Arno River. Every evening I sat there and ordered Fernet Branca. I imagined that I would look across the tables and see you with your wife and maybe a couple of kids. You won't tell me anything, and I won't tell you either. But we will both understand that you did it, that you are happy. I didn't want you to return to Gotham. I always knew that nothing awaits you here except pain and misfortune. And I wished you a completely different life. And now I wish.
