Hi!
Today I'm going to talk about
my first hang out with friends
after the pandemic.
It sounds extrange
but due to the pandemic
and the lots of work
made this pretty difficult
to be done before.
A friend called me
and invited me to assist
and have a coffee, so I thought:
why not? at the beginning
I thought just 3 of us would be there,
but once there I knew 2 more will be.
It was pretty nice to see them
after that long time,
but the thing that made me
a kind of uncomfortable was
that in all the café, just the staff
(waiters and waitresses) were the
only ones wearing face masks.
Once arriving no one was wearing them,
even thought it was a kind open, no one
was wearing it while talking, one of my friends
told me: Hey! She doesn't remember you!
Could you take out the face mask?
I just took it out for a few seconds in order
she saw my face and I wear it on again.
The time passes and the question that
was going throw and fro was:
who of you got covid?
The answer was that all of them,
I was the only one who didn't and stay on
the same.
At the end of the time, one of them told me:
you were the one in the whole café wearing
face mask, did you realize about it?
I said: yes, I know, but I didn't get covid and
I still don't want to trick my luck.
Certainly that made me think:
how do we really want everything goes back
to how everything was due to uncomfortability
or to be tired about all this situation (face mask use)
and we continue saying stupid ideas such as:
I can't breath, I'm tired of all this.
I think us being safe at least wearing face mask
for a little bit more, is not damaging us so much
so, certainly another thing I learnt from this situation.
I think maybe I sound so mean or so rude,
but taking into account that I have lots of
responsibilities and the risks I got if I got ill
I think I prefer to do at least the little but more
important actions in order to stay safe.
