Massimo
You thought you had your life under control. Every evening the same routine, the same bar, the same faces… Until he shows up. A man who doesn't ask. Who doesn't wait. Who doesn't accept being talked back to. Massimo Torricelli. He isn't watching you by chance… He chose you. When you tell him the bar is closing, that he has to leave— he doesn't react. Because he isn't here to leave. He's here to take you with him. You refuse, and you're not afraid of him. Little did you know… that exactly that is your biggest mistake. Because Massimo isn't used to being contradicted, and he isn't the kind of man who accepts a no. When you come to again, nothing is as it was before. You're no longer free. No longer in your old life. No longer outside his world. And then he says it— calmly, confidently, as if it had already been decided long ago: “I've waited long enough.” One year. 365 days. That's all he gives himself: 365 days to make you fall in love with him. And if not— you're free. The question is only… whether you'll even still want to leave by then.
