just as she
thought. Paulo would be in for an earful when they got back, there was no hope
for him. She would see to that.
    “No.”
    Gloria stalled to reply, he had to be
imagining things. She was starting to change her mind. Perhaps he needed
medical help to get him over his frenzied addiction to the actress.
    “The real Sara.” his hand floated
outward, it almost had a mind of its own, he had no control of it, he was lost
in a dream, his body was acting on its own by pointing at the heavenly docks
where his angel was seen.
    “Where?” sneered Gloria, looking at
the docks. She couldn't see his adored diva anywhere, as she was starting to
think, it was all in his deluded head. Some therapy to heal his mind from Sara
Sarracini would do him a huge favour, and herself. She had it up to the high
heavens with hearing endlessly about the obscure movie star.
    “There.” he directed his finger at
the radiant beauty walking down the dock.
    “The lady in the hat?” Gloria spotted
the so-called superstar. She didn't seem so super to her.
    A charmed smile curved on Paulo's
adoring lips. “Yes. The lady in the hat.”
    Gloria watched the supposed diva
sceptically, she wasn't at all convinced. “Are you sure?”
    “Positive. I'd recognize her beauty
anywhere.”
     
    Paulo's expression and tone in his
voice said one thing: he was smitten by her. “Amazing, isn't she?”
    Gloria spotted it in a flash. Her
jealously returned with a vengeance, if it was the real Sara Sarracini, there
would be much more than a argument going on between them. She would have him
thrown out the window if he dared try anything. And it was not a bluff, her
parents knew how ferocious she could be when her temper was at its boiling
point.
    Gloria looked back to Sara, her
biggest rival. “I guess.” she said unenthusiastically, she was trying her
hardest to hide her envy, lure him into a false sense of security then let him
have it back at the hotel.
    “I can't believe she's here.” Paulo
could barely contain his excitement. “It's like a dream come true.”
    Resentment burned fiercely in
Gloria's glaring eyes. It may have been a dream for him, but it was a nightmare
for her.
     
    It was the last thing in the world
she wanted to have happen during their romantic summer holiday, having to deal
with a obsessed boyfriend focusing his energy on a superstar instead of his own
girlfriend.
    Had she known Paulo was crazily
infatuated with a movie star when they met during a party in her room-mate's
flat, she may have not been so quick to jump into the sweet talking, charming
stud in the cool and stylish gear's arms after being introduced to by her
friend during a dance shared between the pair and into his bed in the same
night after the party ended at the late hours of three in the morning.
    But what was done was done, she was
in love with him and would have to fight to keep him. She would let no one take
her stud from her, not even a diva. Nothing could be out of her controlling
hands, it was not probable.
     

CHAPTER 14
     
     
    Sara and Tommaso marvelled at the
beautiful, eventful plaza, it was packed full of rural, continental culture,
she was basking in a part of the world which had no reliance on computers,
mobile phones, video game consoles or internet connections which was linked to
all of those, forming the main network that predominated civilization back
home.
    They had no use for it, why would
they want to spend their precious hours gazing into a screen, enveloped in a
digital environment, taking to faces on a monitor when they could be out there,
in a living, breathing world full of activity, friendly faces and socializing
in person, seeing such beautiful sights a virtual web could never replicate, no
matter how big and clear the pixels were in an image.
    Life had to be lived in the flesh.
There was so much a person could do outside with their own eyes, rather than
rely on any form of technology to do the job for them. Being an old school
