To me, Le Toucan will remain a moment of
everlasting grace. I can still see her walk
in, look around for me and sit in front
of me. Leaving her enough time to take off
her glasses and show me her eyes, I asked
her directly and with a smile: “What
do you want from me?” She shot her
answer back, quick and clear, without a
smile and almost solemnly: “I want
to live a love story with you!” Time
stopped and I pretended nothing had happened.
But my life had just radically changed.
I was there, at the Toucan, in front of
her.
