Je sors tranquillement des vapeurs de mon rêve. Une migraine, déjà bien ancrée, s'installe solidement dans mon cerveau. D'où le rêve étrange. Je retourne au sommeil, c'est ce que j'ai de mieux à faire. Après quelques allés/retour entre le rêve et la réalité altérée de la douleur et du sommeil, le cadran sonne. Érika, je dois aller aider à déménager Érika. Mon amour, donne moi des médicaments, je vais me débarrasser de cette migraine et aller aider mon amie. Pilules, eau. Eau encore. Nausée. Mal de ventre. Frissons, sueurs froides. Urgence.
Merci de me recouvrir mon amour, j'ai froid. Bon déménagement. Je sens son baiser doux à travers les vapeurs qui s'emparent déjà de moi. Enfin, un sommeil sans rêve, réparateur. Je me suis finalement purgée du stress qui me rongeait depuis des semaines. Maintenant, ça va aller.
Our voyage began the first. Moved out of our apartment, staying with
Audray's parents, my days are filled with taking care of the final
preparations before leaving for les Îles and Argentina. Seeing people
for the last time. Taking my Castellano lessons. Selling my unwanted
games. But doing all this at a relaxed pace. Taking time out to watch
world cup games. Going to the gym. Enjoying myself.
But notice how that's all about me. Our voyage, but just me. That's
because for Audray it's different. For Audray it won't say that we
started our voyage on the first, but rather that we will start it on
the twentieth. While she also moved out of the apartment and in with
her parents temporarily, her days are not a leisurely attempt at
wrapping up business in Montréal before leaving, but rather a frantic
attempt to finish out her final days of work at her two jobs, while
trying to squeeze out some relaxation while she can. Or a Castellano
lesson with me. Or seeing some friends. Because free time is sparse
when you have one day off in an eleven day span.
In my head it feels like our voyage has already started, but it won't
really start until that first paragraph has a lot more we in it.
