As my beloved is driving to Zagreb, I keep looking at the calendar for the rest of this year. The question is when we will be able to see each other again given her two trips abroad in the next four weeks. At the latest, we will get together in a month. I will go to Zagreb by bus, and we will return to Motovun by car a fortnight later. This is where we plan to stay between Christmas and New Year’s before spending the rest of the winter in Zagreb. At the earliest, we will see each other in a fortnight. In that case, I will take a bus to Zagreb and stay there for only a few days between her two trips. Put differently, the question is whether I will be able to skip the opportunity to see her even if briefly in two weeks’ time. At the moment, I cannot make up my mind. Chances are that I will feel differently in only a few days, though. As days go by, our separation will weigh upon me ever more painfully. And I will end up by going to Zagreb in a fortnight. Not seeing my beloved for a whole month strikes me as beyond my ken even today, way before my decision is made. But wait a minute. Decision, what decision?
