On the road
While Talia was driving, she glanced at the fuel indicator, then she said to herself
This won’t last me for long, I must stop at the nearest gas station
Then she noticed that her phone battery was about to die, so she said to herself in a sarcastic way
Great! And that is exactly what I was missing
Then she pulled over and started to search for her powerbank in her backpack, then she said to herself while sighing
Am I surprised now?! Nope, not at all, I have forgotten it at Edda’s place
Then the low-battery warning appeared on her phone screen, and she said
I must go to the gas station real quick
Then she said as she drove off
Thankfully, I have my charger, I will charge it in the convenience store there...
Two days ago
––––––––
Talia walked through a gate into a courtyard, then she saw old model cars on both sides of the entrance, then she noticed a room at the end of the left row of the cars, so she walked towards it while scanning the cars with her eyes, then she walked into the room and found no one, so she asked out loud
Hello, Is anyone here?!
Then she heard a voice coming from behind her asking
Come posso aiutarti?
Sì, umm...do you speak English?
Talia asked.
Yes, how can I help you?
The man said it.
I want to rent a car
Talia replied.
Do you have a specific model in mind? Or do you want to look around?
The man asked, and she replied
I have, but looking around sounds good
Okay, Ms...?
The man asked, and she replied
Talia
Paulo, alright, let’s go
He said it while shaking hands with her, then he walked out of the room as she followed him...
Paulo asked her as she began to look around
How did you know about me?
Talia stopped in her tracks and said
Excuse me?!
I mean, film companies are usually the ones who would like to rent my cars for obvious reasons, but common people rarely do, so I was wondering about how you found my rental center
Paulo explained.
Oh! Umm...a friend of mine led me to it
Talia said it hesitantly.
Hmm...okay, well, did any car catch your eyes?
Paulo said it as he nodded slightly before asking her.
This one
Talia said it as she pointed at a car.
Alright, for how long?
Paulo asked, and she replied
For a day
Are you going to return it on the same day or the day after?
Paulo asked.
I will drop it off in Zermatt on the same day, I will rent it for umm...four..five hours or someth...
Talia said it, but she got cut off by Paulo as he said while looking surprised
Drop it off where?! Zermatt? Switzerland?!
Y..yeah, do you have a problem with that?!
Talia asked him confused.
I rent my cars only if you are going to return it back here, I don't have any place in Zermatt or any place in general other than here to drop it off at
Paulo said it, and Talia stood in silence while looking at the car and thinking about what she should do now, then after a few seconds, she looked at him and said
Okay, I will return it back here
Alright, let's go inside and finish the renting process
Paulo said it, then he started to walk towards the room while Talia followed him, then as they were about to enter the room, a car that is parked behind the room caught Talia's eyes, so she stopped him by saying
Wait!
What?!
Paulo asked confused.
I changed my mind, I want to rent this car
Talia said it while pointing at the car.
Paulo looked at the car, and then he said
No, you can’t rent this car
Why?!
Talia asked as she looked devastated.
Umm...someone already rented it
Paulo replied.
But it is...right here?!
Talia said it confused.
Yes, it is because...the expected date of renting it is after a couple of days
Paulo explained.
Can't I rent it and then return it back before that date?!
Talia asked desperately.
No
Paulo replied strictly.
When you asked me if I have a specific car in mind, it was this car, and when I couldn’t find it, I settled for the other one, I promise I will bring it back before their...
Talia said it desperately.
I SAID NO
Paulo yelled it, and Talia was taken aback by it, then she said while looking slightly afraid
O..okay
Then Paulo asked her strictly
Are you going to rent the first car or what?!
Y..yes
Talia said it quietly, then both entered the room...
Paulo handed her a paper and said
Fill it in
Talia took it from his hand and started to fill in the blanks while Paulo looked at her in silence, then he cut off the silence by asking
Why were you pretty insisted on renting that car?!
Chevrolet corvette C3, for a person who isn’t that passionate about cars, the only car that has ever caught my attention was this car, I just liked it, and I always wanted to do a road trip with it, and when I looked around and didn't find it, I chose the closest looking one, and when I found it...you know what happened after that
Talia explained while continuing filling in the paper and looking at Paulo simultaneously.
Yes, they definitely resemble each other, so you shouldn’t be that upset about not being able to rent the second car, am I right?
Paulo said it, and Talia looked at him without saying anything, then she continued filling in the form in silence, then Paulo cut off the silence again by asking
Umm...instead of Zermatt, can you drop off the car at another city in Italy?
Yes?!
Talia replied as she raised her eyebrow confused at his sudden question.
Okay, wait a minute here, I will make a call, then I will be right back
Paulo said it.
OkAy! I will just continue filling it!
Talia said it while pointing at the paper and looking at him confused.
Alright
Paulo said it, and then he walked out of the room...
––––––––
After a few minutes, Paulo entered the room and walked towards Talia while saying
I have good news for you!
Talia looked at him confused while asking
What news?!
and he replied
You can rent the car that you liked
How?! I mean, why is this sudden change of your plans?!
Talia asked confused.
Umm...it is just the way you talked about the car, and how much you want to do your road trip with it, so I called a friend of mine who lives in Milan, he will take it from you there
Paulo explained.
And what about the person who already rented it?
Talia continued asking, and he replied
Don’t worry about that, my friend will return it back to here before the due date
Talia looked at him in silence for a few moments before saying
"Mr. Paulo, I appreciate your effort, but I don't want to mess up your plans, I totally understand the situation, and I will rent the first car,
