For one evening, I wanted to stop thinking of myself only as a widow, mother or lonely pensioner.
I wanted to feel like an ordinary woman going out
to enjoy her birthday.
So I left the apartment and headed toward the city.
A Small Bar Caught My Attention
Not far from the city center, I noticed a small bar and decided to go inside.
Calm music played in the background, and several groups of people were gathered around tables. I found a quiet seat in the corner and ordered a glass of red wine.
That was when I noticed him.
He appeared to be around forty and was dressed well. I caught him looking in my direction several
times before he finally stood and walked toward my table.
“May I join you?”

I couldn’t help smiling at the situation.
“If you don’t mind sitting with a woman who could easily be your mother.”
