A secret love story (writing game 5)

Lisa and Bella, two choir girls from Silkeborg and Aarhus, decided to go on a cut-price trip to Morocco for 10 days in the beginning of July; they had met each other in the LYT choir 5 years ago and their friendship had slowly developed into becoming more of a flirt than a friendship. They were both insecure about their emotions, but after one crazy party with their choir group 3 months ago one thing led to another and afterwards they couldn’t stop talking about this drunken night – that party was a turning point in their relationship and their stepping stone to planning the trip to Morocco.

Lisa picked up Bella after her last workday before their vacation. Lisa smiled form behind the steering wheel as she saw Bella standing by the staff entrance with her bags next to her. After a long drive, they finally arrived at Copenhagen airport, they had 3 hours to kill before boarding time at 6pm. One of their biggest common interests was the beautiful nature of Denmark, especially the lovely sound of the birds singing the melody Danish summer. They had spent countless of hours in the big forest listening to the melodies of their favourite birds – the woodpecker and the peacock. Both of them being very adventurous had drawn them even closer together and Bella talked about how her big brother and his girlfriend had been on the exact trip 7 years ago – they both loved it and they were especially impressed by the view of a rare hummingbird, which Bella and Lisa were both very excited to hopefully see.

After finally having boarded and settled down on their seats, they continued talking about how they wouldn’t miss the slightly boring everyday life in central Jylland with the constant talk of Anker Jørgensen in the news, their shitty Sunday dinner of pizza from Ristorante, how they both ended up with 6 days of diarrhoea after having eaten some too old ketchup from Heinz and finally enigma of the mysterious sweet potatoes last Christmas. 

On the way to their hotel, they noticed a poor man selling red and garlic onions in the ditch, which apparently was a normal thing for tourists to be surprised about.

Upon arrival at their hotel room, they were both thrilled to see a small TV, a more or less functional dishwasher and indispensable wires; however, they were less thrilled to discover a snub nose in a desk drawer, but were quickly relieved when a local police officer confiscated it.

Before exploring the rainforest of Brazil, they spent one day at the local museum, where they were amazed by the painting of “Mercury about to slay argus”, which for some reason reminded them of the book “Silkworm”.

They spent their last night all dressed up with Clinique on their lips for a delicious dinner. They ended the night lying down on the sand and looking up on the sky. The stars and the planet of Mercury fuck up the sky
