TomNatworthy Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 (edited) This is my first observation, it may seem written in a somewhat mechanical and scholastic way, because it is not my first language. Anyway enjoy the reading😉. Today a classmate of mine, Chiara, who is 18, went back to school. On Thursday she went home after a Greek test because she felt bad, and stayed there for the next two days with a cold (took the test and it was negative). She was sitting across from me on the left and I could observe her well: she wore a shawl over her sweatshirt, and together with her long curly brown hair she was quite protected from the cold, which bothered her a little. Clearly she was better but every few minutes she cleared her throat and from the sound it could be clear that she still had some congestion, even if unfortunately I have never been able to hear real coughs; but her voice was pleasantly hoarse and congested. However what I wanted to tell you is that I managed to see her blow her nose several times. She kept a used tissue in her trouser pocket and when she pulled it out she gave a very soft but gurgly little blow and then immediately put the tissue back in her pocket. I guess after several days of a cold her snot had become thicker and more yellow ... I would have loved to see it... I find people's blows match their personality: Chiara in class is quite shy and also corresponds to the stereotype of a shy person, with glasses and a little short. Instead in front of her sat Silvia, who is also 18, one of the most popular of the school, blonde, tall and quite beautiful. She blows her nose at least once every day but never brings tissues, so she always asks her friends for them. Her blows are noisy but snotty and when they finish she looks briefly into the tissue, folds it and spends a few seconds running it under her nose and sniffling, and then she places it on the desk and then she throws it away at the end of the lessons. I often go to see her tissues at the interval 😏. I hope you enjoyed it ☺️. Edited May 8, 2022 by webmeistro Link to comment
TomNatworthy Posted March 7, 2022 Author Share Posted March 7, 2022 For those who like sneezes, Silvia's are abrupt, and sound like "ekchh! ekchh". I can't write sneezes but it should be read with the accent on h if it makes sense hahah Link to comment
