The plane pilot and the waitress. Leila worked in a small café in the
heart of Durocnic, Croatia. Every morning, with the first ray of sun
the city woke up the sound of the waves of the Adriatic, breaking against
the old walls and the aroma of the newly made coffee that spread from the
cafeteria of Leila Machocán, an airplane pilot with a life full of trips and
adventures, had arrived in Durogni. By chance, his flight had been diverted
due to a storm and with a day off ahead, he decided to explore
the city walking through the stars cobbled streets. He was attracted to the smell
of coffee and entered Leila' s cafeteria. Leila, with her dark hair
and bright eyes, served the clients with a smile that illuminated the place.
When Machucán entered, she immediately noticed it There was something in her presence that
intrigued her a mixture of trust and mystery. Machucán sat at a table near
the window and asked for coffee. Leila took it and handed it over to
her, her hands rubbed slightly. They both felt a spark, an instant
connection that no one could ignore. They started talking first about trivial issues,
but soon the conversation deepened. They shared stories of their lives, their dreams
and their fears. Machucán was fascinated by Leila' s passion and determination.
She told him about her dream of opening a chain of coffee shops and bringing
Dubrovnik' s flavor to the rest of the world. Machucán, in turn,
told him about his travels and the freedom he felt when flying. Leila
found herself wanting some of that freedom for herself. The days passed and machucar
continued to return to the cafeteria. Every visit was an excuse to see Leila
and spend time with her. Leila, who had always been focused on her
work, began to look forward to these moments. Machucán took her for a
walk along the coast and together explored hidden corners of the city, sharing laughter
and confidence. One day, while watching the sunset from a hill, Machucán
took Leila' s hand and told her to return to work as a pilot,
but before leaving he asked her to accompany him on his next trip.
Leila, surprised, hesitated for a moment all her life were dubrognic but the
idea of an adventure with Machucán was tempting. He decided to follow his heart
and accept the invitation. Together they flew new cities and lived unforgettable experiences.
Machucán showed him the world from the heights and Leila taught him to appreciate the
small pleasures of everyday life. Throughout his travels, his love grew and grew
stronger. Eventually they returned to Dubrovnik and opened a chain of cafes named after
the places they had visited together. The original cafeteria where it all started became
a symbol of his love story and shared dreams. Leila and Machucán showed that,
even if they came from different worlds. His love was strong enough to
overcome any obstacle, and so in the heart of Dubrovnik, between cups of
coffee and flights at sunset, they lived happily, sharing their love and passion
for life. Author José Pardal choral narrative. Bravo.
