Luuuulyyyy

You won't believe it!
Hey Frankie!

Oh god what happened? 😲
One of those companies contacted me!
Cool!

What did the say?
They are looking for a resource to join an all-digital design team.

And they are interested in my profile 😎

I made a good impression

They were impressed by my experience as a programmer
Wow that's amazing!

Have you already scheduled any interviews?
Yep, I have one in a couple of days

They want to delve a little deeper into my latest work
Gosh, I'm sooooo happy for you

You deserve it all 💜
And how are you, baby? 💚
Better, better

The new therapist is helping me a lot

even if she says that

mmm
What?

Come on, don't keep me on my toes!
she says it will take time

and a lot of patience

and she also suggested that maybe this isn't the best time for a relationship...

especially with everything that has happened
Ah

No - wait

Are you telling me it's over?

Are you dumping me like this?
No Frankie!

All I ask is that you have a little patience

We may see less of each other

also because of my parents...
That story again?

Jesus Christ!

Will I ever be able to take off this cross?
Frankie, please don't make a big deal out of this

It's just a fucked-up moment

Ok?

In a few months it will be better
Yes but...

I love you Luly

What shall I do without you?
I love you too, dummy 💜

What are you thinking?

That I'm dumping you like this?

Ahah it would be too easy to get rid of me! 😈
Leave the office

Here we are!

You won't believe it, but this is my favourite church.
I didn't think you were so faithful

How long have you been going to mass?
Have some respect, miss, we are in a place of worship!

I actually love this church because it's a giant joke.
What?

What do you mean?
Ahah you won't believe it

Look over there, behind the altar.
Yeah well, it doesn't look like anything special...
The apse was to be muuuuuch deeper than what you see now

But due to some design error they ended up with just one metre available.

And do you know what the architect did?
Did he break into the neighbour's living room?
No, an engineer would have done that!

Instead, the architect was clever, and painted and decorated the walls of the apse in such a way that the eye was misled by the perspective.

And so at first glance the effect is that of the original design.
Mmm, I don't think I understand.

From here it looks... normal?
Yes, indeed!

Come with me, follow me

. . .
Look now!
Wait what-

No way!
Isn't it brilliant?
Ahah that's great!
Listen, how about dinner together tonight?

To celebrate my new job!
I can't tonight, Frankie, I've already made plans with my parents...
Mmmm okay, alright.

How about next week?
Yes, come on, it shouldn't be a problem!
Hug her

Hey dad

You look good

I started working in a new company, you know?

In the end, that course turned out to be quite useful as well as interesting.

The new colleagues are nice, much less boring than the previous ones.

Occasionally we have a drink together after work.

There is one who studied philosophy and she is now a specialist in information architecture, can you believe it?

. . .

It's not going very well with Lusinda.

Since that evening she has been relying more and more on her parents.

It's almost as if she doesn't trust me anymore.

Sorry for abandoning her

Maybe if I could go back...

Well, take care, Dad. See you next time.
Light the candles
