12th to 17th of August, 2019.
Because of the broke up, Pet was very sad and decided to drink a lot on the weekend. Fey came over and I thought everything would be fine and they would just drink a lot again. Unfortunately, things got out of control with all that alcohol, so I made my mind to live next day. In the end, what I believe now is that: people are the only bad thing it could happen to other people. In the end, our mind is not out and nuts, there is always someone who is messing up with it. Shame.
I was not afraid of Pet. I knew deep inside that he could not hurt me or anything. So when he came to my room I knew he just wanted to talk and to see someone else. But I also knew though, that I needed to leave. I promise myself a long time ago that I would not deal with drunk people anymore. Never again. So I was arranging another CS just that night already. Luckily the other guy who I was also talking when I was first looking for a CS in Malta, Alex, had told me I could come over. He even offered to come and pick me up with his bike, but we would just not be able to take my backpack. He was actually worried about the situation, which I told him about it, but I calmed him and said I would come over next day.
In the next afternoon I told Pet I was going somewhere else. He understood, of course, even more when I told him briefly about my life history of drunk people and how I simply could not deal with that anymore. I wish him all the best in his up coming travel to Ireland, which I helped him to plan, and left.
Alex lives in Mosta, just another town nearby of where Pet leaves. While I was waiting for him, a nice man with a wonderful big dog approach and we have a nice pep-talk. Another one of the few truly Maltese people I met who was nice.
Alex arrives and we go to his apartment. He is attractive but looks to young, as his 27 years of age. He is pretty much different of what I expected though, I do not know why. His apartment is nice and clean. But I give him a hand here and there since he is too busy with his work (he is a doctor) and his thesis. He has great ideas and thoughts about delicate subjects. Which makes him a quite special person. He is kind and cute in a different way. I think life has a lot to teach him and I truly believe he will become even better person, like this great guy which will be a perfect husband to someone. He has a lot of potential.
From the days I staid with him I most relaxed. I was already tired of going out every single day and walk for hours, back and forth, from Pet’s apartment to the Yacht Clubs. Since there were gates with personal locks in the entrance of each dock, it was quite difficult to be able to actually talk with everybody everyday. The idea of sticking little informational signs in each gate it was great (somebody gave it to me) but it came too late. I believe that in the next time that wiil work perfectly. Of course I will not need to do that again because Malta it is probably the only country where I would have so much trouble to get a lift of just one day in a bot. Anyway, it is been almost three weeks I am waiting here so I had decided to finally buy the Ferryboat ticket. It is 30 Euros that I need to sacrifice now since I cannot keep looking for a place to stay again and again.
I went for a few walks around Alex house. Mosta has some beautiful Medieval buildings. As much as most of the towns. When I need to print my Ferryboat ticket I am surprised for the efficiency and kindness of the people from a Stationery in the neighborhood Naxxar, it is called Zaky’s Stationery Naxxar. They have this wonderful system for buying balloons, the ones for kids party or something, by the color! You do not need to buy a full package of the same color if you just want to mix some of them: you can buy as much as you want of each color you want. Incredible! Plus they have anything you might need. Just go and check in there first before going anywhere else, OK?
Apart of the walks, I also watch some movies plus I watched the really well recommended tvshow Chernobyl. What a wonderful production! Must seen and that is it. No more talking.
I spend some time with Alex too. I wish I had be able to cook something nicer to him. The only thing I made it was not that nice and I felt ashamed for it. Maybe some next time. In my first night there we went to visit his uncle in his motorbike. Really nice one and really nice ride. I was glad to meet his uncle’s boyfriend, Giacomo, a wonderful Brazilian guy, who studies cinema and with whom I had some amazing conversation. I wish we had more time together but soon we left.
I spend just a few days with Alex but I really think we had more time together we could develop a nice friendship. I also think he needs someone to look after him, like a close friend or something. I hope he get that soon.
So there was two CSs coming over and I could either go somewhere else or stay in the couch, as Alex said. I did not want to keep his apartment too full though plus I had a good feeling about this man who offer to host me for my last two days in the country so I decided to leave. That afternoon, I said goodbye to Alex, while he was wearing just one of his really cute samba-canção (boxer shorts), showing up his beautiful body. I was heading up to one of the most incredible CS host I ever had. The wonderful family of Mario, Katka and their son, Daniel.
