Thus realistic fiction is expressed in novels, stories and some stories, as long as they are close to reality.
Realistic fiction example:
Friday's date
Last Wednesday, I met Norma Cabrera Herrera and her son on the street, she was my girlfriend in the school, I never really knew how I made it, but he accepted an invitation for coffee on Friday night.
I waited the rest of the week, while I remembered the hard work that all friends star in. When Friday comes around, and if all goes well, maybe we'll keep dating.
I think that when he arrives, I will propose to walk in front of the school, and perhaps ask the janitor for permission to enter, for sure that Don León will let us in, then I will recommend visiting on Saturday one of our friends who still live for here.
The difficult thing will be to tell him that Armando Medina joined the police and that he died in a police raid, it will be a bitter pill, he was the soul of the group.
I am so excited that I bought a suit, but in the end I left it in my apartment and I will wear a turtleneck sweater and my casual coat, I don't want to look like a penguin out of place.
I arrived at his house in my car, and as a pretentious bachelor he is a BMWz4, he will see that I am the same as before, that I have barely changed a little, only a little bald; in the end I parked the car across the street and crossed to her house.
Looking through the glass in the door, I could see her coming down the stairs from her, I felt anxious, I wanted to tell her about myself and what I achieved with all my effort.
I had not felt an emotion like the one I felt at that time for many years, I looked like a teenager, and to think that I believed that I had no right to happiness like that of that moment.
She opened the door:
Rule- Hello Jesus, how have you been? I thought you would not come.
Jesus- How do you think it would be missing? You already know that I am like a Swiss watch.
Rule- I'm not bad vibes, but I think we won't be able to go out tonight, my son has no one to stay with, my sister left and my mother went to Aguas Calientes.
Jesus- Don't worry, it will be another time. –I bravely resigned myself– maybe next Friday.
Rule- I wanted to talk to you, I have not talked to someone who really understands me for years. Come on, stay a little while, "even if it's on the sidewalk."
Jesus- Sure, no problem.
She began to tell me everything that happened to her since we left school, that her boyfriend left her pregnant and only registered the child and left for the United States fleeing from her. How all this time went by and he only received support from his brothers and his mother. We remember our past, from the death of his father until I left school due to problems with the teachers.
We were so deep in our talk that we didn't hear the thunder and the rain forced us inside.
In her dining room were a series of bank papers and her notebook, I realized how bad she is. She picked up the papers and asked me to put them in a drawer of a dresser, put a tablecloth, and made the coffee.
She got a little worried and took some cookies from her cupboard, I realized that she had almost nothing, his refrigerator was empty.
Rule- Have a seat, the coffee is ready.
I noticed that it was low on sugar.
Rule- Do you want some sugar in your coffee?
Jesus- No thanks, I'm trying to take it black and only. It seems to me that you are struggling a lot with your financial demons, right?
Rule- Well, why lie to you?! If I'm pressured, imagine, my mom lent me to eat today, I paid for the services and I ran out of fifth. Would you bother if I borrow a few pesos from you? I would pay you in the week.
Jesus- Well no, I will never lend you money.
Rule- There, how are you ?!
Jesus- I'll give you a check, but never as a loan.
Rule- Not as you think?! lend it to me, I'll pay you.
Jesus- It is that if I agree to lend you money, it is as if it ended our friendship.
Rule- Don't be so drastic, at least let me support you in something, in a cool way.
Jesus- Look, when I talk about money I have no friends, I am very strict and I separate business from friendship and I would have to make you sign a promissory note and it is not for me to do that before you.
Rule- It's only until I get a job.
Jesus- Give me your account number and I will deposit the money, but be clear that it is not a loan, it is given, so you can accommodate yourself and I also know what I do with my own money.
Rule- And this why? You didn't act like that before.
Jesus- Over the years I have had many problems and I have gained experience, I knew that it is to stay with an outstretched hand, ask for help and that they do not turn to you and what the true effort is. The helping hand never came, but it does not mean that I did not begin to shake hands.
Rule- No, you don't know what good you do me.
Jesus- I think I'm getting ready to retire, I'll give you my address with my card, I wrote down the address of my factory there, I'll give you a job, now you'll do the accounts of my movements.
Rule- So nothing else?
Jesus- Not as you think? You will have to sign your contract, as you and the child will need social security and you must start with your afore. Did you finish your career?
Rule- Well no, I started accounting but left it to get pregnant.
Jesus- Well, I'll give you one of the cars from the factory and you will move with it. You will take the child to school and go on to do the accounts, I have done them so far, but I work in another office and then I have them behind. I think it's time to go, you should rest and I'll leave you what I was thinking of spending on coffee today. You must finish the race, you cannot stagnate here.
Rule- What do you manufacture?
Jesus- I make shoes, but shoes for diabetics, I even have orders from doctors and patients.
They started walking towards the door, and in the hallway she hugged him around the waist like they did when they were young, actually because of the emotion that she had she did without realizing it, but Jesus did notice, she led him to the car and suddenly she hugged; she with tears in her eyes she told him that she thinks she's fine for the first date in eight years, right?
Jesus- I think we just continue where we left off, say hello to the boy, I'll see you next Monday at the factory, your contract will be ready.
I got in my car and started it, she went to the door of her house and waved goodbye to me.
I didn't really expect this, I didn't even know it really happened, but it's better to let things slide when it comes to love and a relationship. I'll let what has to happen happen.
End
