The Longest Night
The Longest Night
I was sleeping, but the sound of the phone woke me . It was two oclock; who
could be calling at this time, I asked myself, the phone was in silent and when I
went back to sleep, it rang again then I answered immediately.
Carlos: Cynthiaaa ( the person shouted on the phone) how are you ?
Narrador: I thought at a moment, who will be the person that was calling me, if
it was a female voice I had heard before, but I couldnt remember where I had
heard his voice.
Cynthia: Im fine, Im sorry who is speaking?
Carlos: you dont remember me, Im Carlos, we studied together an English
course, three years ago.
Cynthia: hi Carlos, yes I remember you, why do you call me?
Carlos: I wanted to meet the students of English in my home, do you
remember that the oct. 31 is my birthday, So I want to see them
Cynthia: I think it is an excellent idea, I will be there
Carlos: You can communicate with others and let them know, that would be
great because I lost contact with them. I hope see them, anyway, goodbye, see
you take care.
Narrator: the day came, I remember that I arrived early, this was unusual for
me. I was anxious, but this day was different I knew that something would
happen.
Lesly: Roberto (shouted Lesly) if it was him with a beard, but funny and
sometimes grouchy as we remembered ..
Narrator: it was eleven oclock at night, and we were only three people,
although we were having a great time, but we only were talking, we needed to
go out for fun.
Roberto: we need some beer and some and whisky
Lesly: Carlos is late and we are only four people I think that anyone else will
come
Roberto: jajaja they are going to come, Cynthia fell asleep on her sofa
Narrator: Suddenly carloss phone rang, it interrupted the dialogue
Narrator: Carlos went to side of the room to talk, his face was of concern. He
returned where Roberto, Lesly and Cynthia. He was very rare.
Lesly: Carlos, are you ok ?
Carlos: its my aunt, she is wrong and she asked me to carry a medicament,
but its late and I can not carry it, so I feel sad. Sorry guys it was not my
intention.
Roberto: dont worry, I brought my car, lets go
Carlos: Roberto really? Thank you so much
Lesly: lets go. Everyone, this reunion has finished, may be more exciting to go
see your aunt, then we return to a club
Cynthia: Lesly is the first time you say something good
Lesly: Cynthia is sleeping, she isnt going to go
Cynthia: jajajaja I cant sleep with so much noise
Carlos: Lesly sorry, I do not think that we can go to a disco. My aunt lives out of
town in a small town near of the mountain and we will go them we return.
Roberto: Cynthia, what happened? Why are you so quiet?
Cynthia: mmm, I have nothing, Only I am thinking, which is the disease is your
aunt suffering?
Narrator: Carlos became pale it did not know that to say, ultimately Roberto
interrupted.
Roberto: Cynthia you are very curious, Cynthia leave her alone.
Narrator: Cynthia remembered, what carlos said to her that he did not have
aunts. All this was very strange, Carlos was concealing something and did not
want to count it

something in his purse We were in the car, we were heading Carloss home, the
road was steep, and I didnt see nothing because of the darkness of the night

burst, outside the car it was very cold, we were trembling
Roberto: dont worry I have a spare tire, right now I will change it
Lesly: our phones have flashlight happily, this place is very dark, Im scared
Narrator: Roberto changed the tire and we continued the travel
Roberto: It cant be, a battery is dead, and the car will not start. This is very
rare; the battery doesnt discharge so fast.
Cynthia: we have to walk, I think that something happens to the car, you have
realized that the whole way we have not seen another car or another person ?
