Meeting again
Frank, could you come to my house tonight, I would like to tell you some news that has just come to me, I don't want to tell you anything over the phone. Can you come over around seven...? Yes, Paul, no problem, I'll see you at that time, Frank answers from his cell phone...
At seven o'clock Frank knocks on the door and Paul opens it with a big smile...
You won't believe it Frank, you know who is coming in two days...? Paul asks, wanting to accentuate the atmosphere of uncertainty...
Not the slightest idea .... answers Frank. How will I know who is coming ...
Mary..., Frank ... Mary is coming, after being out of the country for almost ten years...Don't you think it's wonderful...Our great friend from high school is coming back after so long.... What do you think Frank...? Paul says with a gleam of joy in his eyes....
I wasn't expecting that.... I thought she wouldn't come anymore...Do you know if she's coming back to stay...? Frank comments.
So far I don't know, but I would like to surprise her with something that would please her. You know I've always been very fond of Mary, in a way she's been my impossible love. And as far as I know, she is still alone, she has dedicated herself to her research on Artificial Intelligence...Maybe now would be our moment...What do you think she would like...Paul asks his friend...
Knowing Mary, who loves deep conversations, I think you'd score some good points if you took her to visit Professor Dylan..., I'm sure she'd love to talk to that great teacher with whom we've had so many important conversations throughout life. He is a bit older now, but his thinking never gets old, he keeps up to date with the most current topics, and he is a great conversationalist...Then, you could take Mary to a very nice cafe that is at the top of the Europa tower, from there you can see the whole city...Maybe at that moment you will break that mania of yours of not wanting to drink coffee, hahahaha. What do you think of the plan, Paul, says Frank with a face of satisfaction ....
Excellent, Frank, excellent... I knew you would give me a great idea. Thank you my dear friend, says Paul as he says goodbye to Frank....
As planned Mary arrived two days later, Paul picked her up at the airport and agreed with her that the next afternoon they would visit Professor Dylan...
Good afternoon Professor, Mary says as she kisses him warmly on the cheek....
Gee, Mary...Great to see you...I always have these two (Paul and Frank) around, they never lose the habit of talking to their old professor. The truth is that I am very pleased that you have come to see me, you made me remember those years in high school when the three of them kept asking me anything about the divine and the profane, the three of them have been very special people...Thank you very much for the visit...Professor Dylan commented with great emotion...
The hours passed quickly. The two friends and their old professor kept asking Mary as many questions as they could about her life over the past few years. But the big topic of conversation was about the impact that artificial intelligence could have on the future of humanity. At the end of the meeting Frank stayed with Dylan doing some things and Paul left with Mary....
Gee Paul, actually coming to Dylan's was a great surprise, a great idea. I felt like old times, cheerful, fresh, with a mind full of ideas. The truth is that Dylan has been a great mentor for the three of us...Thank you Paul...Thank you.... Mary comments as they walk to wait for a cab...
But the night is young Mary...If you want we can talk some more...Nearby, in the Europa tower, they have opened a new cafe that has a spectacular view...Let's go...? Paul asks with great expectation...
Sounds perfect to me Paul... Mary says with a flirtatious gesture...
The cafe in the Europa Tower turned out to be much more amazing than Paul imagined...A floor-to-ceiling window protected the space from the wind, but gave a great view of the city. The jazz music seemed specially chosen to facilitate conversation. And the coffee was ground at the time of brewing; each person could choose beans from a fairly large offering, including varieties from different parts of the world...
What a spectacular place...Mary commented...I didn't know you had finally decided to have coffee...Ah...Paul...What a great surprise...
Well, well...I don't drink a lot of coffee...Actually this place was recommended to me by Frank...And the truth is that I was also dazzled...It's a beauty...Paul finished...Paul said...
It was not easy for Paul and Mary to decide on the great variety of coffees on offer, in the end he ordered a local one and she a Brazilian blend...As it usually happens in these cases time passed without them noticing...
Gee...how late it is, Paul commented...All night I've been wanting to ask you something that for me is too important...You're definitely staying...Paul said looking for answers in Mary's eyes...
I didn't have it in my plans...But after tonight, after the conversation with Dylan, I think it would do me good to have him as a consultant for my AI research...Besides...Now that you too can enjoy the wonder of coffee...We could have a fresh start...Right...Paul...?
Of course we can Mary...Of course we can... A fresh start would be wonderful...replied Paul, warmly taking her hand....
Thank you for your time.
