RE: Candlelight and Wine Part 3 ...The Vanity of Wishes
How unpleasant men can be when they feel their pride hurt, @johjgeddes! Although Nathalie has been indifferent, there is no reason why it should be colder than the weather out there. There's also no reason for her to break her cell phone, no matter how claustrophobic and powerless she feels. He's acting like a young man who doesn't know how to express his feelings. Hopefully the evening will make him act differently. Happy Monday
Yes, I think our narrator has invented his dream of what Nathalie should be and is finally realizing it has nothing in common with reality. The story revolves around impressions and expectations, all of which are subjective until the other person, namely Nathalie, opens up and reveals herself.
