Harry suddenly felt like he was the most important customer in the store. She smiled at him with her very discreetly made-up physiognomy and the expressive big blue eyes sparkled as she praised Spain as the eighth wonder of the world. He stood firm in her constant eye contact, often looking at her cherry-red painted mouth, from which perfectly healthy, well-formed, snow-white teeth flashed when she smiled. But he didn't hear the words she was speaking.

At some point Gisela seemed to notice his mental absence, and she quickly switched to questioning techniques. After a good half an hour, Harry was then provided with a complete booking, of course for Italy. He was satisfied and said to himself that it would be much nicer to be on vacation for two. Maybe together with Gisela, yes that's it, or that's it. but what the heck, he thought to himself, you can't have everything in life and dreaming is always allowed.

Of course he had already noticed the wedding ring she was wearing. Now that nothing really kept him in Vienna anymore, after all he had lost his accommodation and work, he set off on the same day. The vacation arrangement consisted of a bus trip that he booked. He did not see at all, to take the much more expensive variant with flight. After all, he now had plenty of time. He also hoped for more interesting impressions with the bus. So he drove to the bus that was supposed to leave the Südbahnhof that same day at 7 p.m.

Since it was only mid-May, the number of holiday travelers was limited. It would be a lot worse in two months, he thought. When he got to the bus, he suddenly felt like a trip to an old people's home. Except for three younger people, all the other participants were older people. Probably a lot of enterprising retirees who probably took advantage of the cheaper preseason. He actually didn't feel the slightest desire to sit next to such a pensioner, whether male or female, for the whole long journey. And then possibly listen to the life story of that person, from cradle to grave.

Which, he suspected, would most likely come as certain as the fact that a wheel is round. The tour guide, also no longer that young, but apparently very experienced, was just dividing the seats and must have noticed his somewhat despondent expression. And lo and behold, he was sitting right away with the young people. They were two women who had a man of about twenty-five with them. Before Harry knew it, the tour guide assigned him to sit next to the one young woman, a blonde, who was sitting next to him. Which he didn't mind at all.

He politely introduced himself to her as he sat down in the next seat. The young woman seemed a little grumpy and taciturn. He immediately thought, could be really cheerful if she doesn't thaw a bit afterwards. The bus finally started moving, Harry tried to make himself comfortable in the tightness. Because he knew he would have to endure a good ten hours of driving. Monika Lechner, like the woman sitting next to her, tried to get into a comfortable position for her part and leafed through a book lost in thought.

The bus had been on the highway for a good three hours and apart from a few trivial things, no real conversation had come about with the person sitting next to him. Harry had fallen into a twilight state in the meantime, the monotonous driving noise and gentle rocking of the car on the concrete slabs of the western highway were not exactly what cheered him up. Add to that the dim blue light inside the car. Reading without eye damage was actually out of the question. The woman sitting next to me had also fallen asleep.

Although she still held the book convulsively in her hands, her head rested comfortably on his shoulder. He sat there a little cramped, but he still didn't want to wake good Monika or even chase her off his shoulder. Her deep, quiet breaths testified that she was in dreamland. Sometimes a slight smile escaped her accompanied by giggles. He then tried to imagine what she might be dreaming about.

In the row of seats in front of him, the young man was sitting with the other young woman and they were both talking, somewhat quietly, but very excitedly. From scraps of conversation that he was able to overhear and that he was forced to, he deduced that the two women were friends and that all three wanted to spend a vacation together. He thought to himself, two friends, but only one male companion, a bit strange, strange trio. As soon as he got in, he noticed that Monika would have preferred to sit a seat further forward.

But the friend, she could probably somehow arrange it so that she came to sit next to the young man. In contrast to Monika, the friend who, as he saw it, was called Clara, was a well-proportioned, but somewhat chubby person. From their gestures and facial expressions one had to deduce that she seemed to be a lively, fun-loving person. She was a bit noisy, laughed and joked a lot and you could tell immediately that she was in the best holiday mood. Harry thought it would be very interesting to find out the composition of this trio in the near future.

When the inevitable break came at a motorway service station, the bus was equipped with a toilet.
