Beijos & Desejos de Natal
by Sharon Kleve Ana Martins"Avó, tentei o que disseste mas simplesmente não está a resultar." Olhei para as árvores cobertas de neve, enquanto Scorch, o meu Pug, bateu na minha perna com a cabeça a pedir atenção e festas. "Querida, nem deste hipótese." O tom firme e nítido dela, não deixava espaço para negociações. "Eu adoro a época natalícia. Quero passá-la contigo e não num lugar onde não conheço ninguém."

Brunswick no Maine era simplesmente lindo coberto pela neve pura e branca, mas tornava difícil a circulação. "Tens mais três meses de aventura. Passa as festas num sítio onde nunca tenhas estado e senão estiveres satisfeita, volta para casa." "Está bem. Mais três meses", Resmunguei eu e o Scorch ladrou. "Dá ao Scorch um abraço meu. "A avó riu-se. "Sinto falta desse pequenote." "Será entregue. Ele também tem saudades tuas." Scorch sentou-se no meu pé e eu fiz-lhe uma festinha atrás da orelha. "Se o tempo o permitir, amanhã vôo para o Aeroporto Internacional de Seattle-Tacoma e vou passar uns dias a provar os vinhos de Western Washington. Há uma pequena cidade chamada Vine Grove, que me interessa bastante. Se o vinho for tão bom como eu li que é, envio-te um par de caixas para o Natal." "Soa-me lindamente querida. Agora, por mais que te adore e sinta a tua falta, quero que encontres a felicidade, e não me parece que a vás encontrar aqui em Charleston." "Eu sei. Eu sei que tenho que encontrar o meu próprio lugar e começar de novo." "E vais encontrar. Talvez Washington seja esse lugar." "Talvez..."
