OO8's best friend & Friday, our last full day and night there

Today, our last day in Bacoli I finally meet Antonio, OO8's best friend. Now unlike DDQ, Tonio looks like OO8's best friend. I mean their interaction was just completely different and Tonio's interaction with me is/was just on a different level. We interacted more than the DDQ and I do. I know this was there time to catch up but it just seems like there is more of a connection there. It was funny too, I wasn't feeling all that great because of the weather change once again but still trying to be semi festive or at least social. We were walking back from having our cold coffee and of course they were talking so I was walking in front. Tonio called me baby to catch my attention to show me where his parents lived. Now of course I turned around out of habit but then it was like hey wait a minute. I didn't get mad or upset or anything cuz it was like ok it was just Tonio calling me that but it was like hey that's not fair catching me off guard like that. I was like OO8 come on, he giggled and was like he called you that because that what he hears me call you. He knew a little English like I know a little Italiano. It was fun, both of us waiting for translation from OO8 when either one of us spoke. I don't know, the friendship felt/feels like it does when Mel is here with OO8 and myself.


Our last night in Bacoli was fun and entertaining. From what I gathered this is OO8's time to sit at home and mope around but not this time, this time we went out in the sweltering evening and had a good time or at least I did for a hot bit, lol.
For our last meal there his mom cooked some fresh caught tuna that was caught by someone she knew just the night before. It was delish but can I get them to warn me about all the little bones it has in it. I've always eaten tuna but it has never had bones but then again it has never been freshly caught the evening before either, lol. We got dressed and were out the door by 11p heading to the cigarette vending machine where DDQ and Jeremiah picked us up. Of course it was off to the Monkey Bar where we could all meet and say our "until next times", which is exactly what happened. People from all kinds of past came out. OO8 said it was the first time in years that all of them had been together like this. It was fun in a sweltering heat kind of way because yes folks, we were all melting our lives away in the night heat but hey then again it is/was August. We had glasses of Perseco and glasses of Rosa Regale. I ended up getting a present from the girls, some beautiful red earrings that I just adore. I can't wait to have some reason/moment to wear them.
As the crowd started to fade away we were taxied home by Danny and Claude and then it happened, another car accident in Napoli. This time we were hit and it just had to be on my side a few hours before I gotta get up to leave. Luckily I wasn't hit too bad because nobody was going that fast but sheesh, two in three weeks, come on people. I survived, no bruises and I wasn't even sore the next day.
