Después de la partida de Lisette, Giovanni encontraba Carcasona, un pueblo lúgubre y aburrido, ya no deseaba estar ahí, en esos días se encontró con un amigo de la infancia, Genaro, quien iba con su familia de visita a su pueblo natal cada verano, y solían jugar juntos durante esa época. 

Genaro se dedicaba a pintar, es un artista, le explico que ambicionaba vivir a Montmartre, puesto que la mayoría de los pintores, poetas y escritores habitan allí, por tal motivo esperaba estar rodeado por esa gente, y solo se hallaba de paso por aquel lugar.

Más Giovanni, sé a percatando que la presencia de Genaro, lo está perturbando, pues ha nacido dentro de él una necesidad, unas ansias por abrazarlo, por besarlo, por acariciar su cuerpo, pero esto lo incómoda, lo angustia, hasta el punto no poder dormir.

Antes de marcharse, Genaro le propone a Giovanni que sea su modelo, ya que le apetece hacer algunos bocetos, el chico acepta gustosamente, pues quiere pasar el mayor tiempo posible junto a él.

Mientras posaba, Giovanni percibe como la mirada de Genaro le traspasaba la piel, lo cual le produce una gran excitación, la atmósfera es íntima y sutil, hay una invitación intrínseca para envolverse, para traspasar los límites y sucumbir a la pasión.

El artista y el modelo, han roto sus propias barreras, se aman con frenesí, Giovanni supo lo que sentía por aquel hombre, el sentimiento que se había estado gestando en su corazón, al fin podía nacer.
 
Al despertar Genaro ya no estaba, Giovanni miro por la ventana y sintiéndose vacío y decepcionado.

París, su trabajo y la compañía de su amada Lisette ayudaron a Giovanni a sobrellevar aquel dolor. 

Una tarde de verano, Giovanni, hizo su paseo habitual por el río Sena, una brisa fresca y suave acaricio su rostro, él se detuvo para sentirla, en ese instante se le vino a la mente el rostro de Genaro, de inmediato los abrió sus ojos, pues no quería recordarlo nunca más.

Sin embargo, mientras caminaba hacia el café Procope, se tropezó con grupo hombres, y uno de ellos se volvió para verlo, era el artista que una vez amo, en ese momento, los amantes cruzaron brevemente sus miradas, no se dieron tiempo para un Bonjour, comment allez-vous, ni hubo reclamos ni despedida, simplemente se ignoraron y prosiguieron con sus vidas.

<div class="text-justify"><p>Giovanni Fiore had arrived in the city of light, full of hope and illusions, his beloved Lisette has been waiting for him for days, and he had found her a job in the Au Bon Marché store, as this was the plan they had drawn up a few years ago.

They met in Carcassonne, Lisette, was working as a waitress in a tavern while he was traveling.

As soon as Giovanni saw the girl, he felt a strange sensation in his stomach, he felt hypnotized by her beauty and charm, for her part, she immediately decided to conquer him, because she sensed that this was the right man.

After a couple of years of living together, Lisette learns that her cousin Ivonne has finally gotten her dream job that would also provide her with a house, at that moment she felt that destiny was on her side.

Before separating, the girl swears to her lover that she will find a way to be together again because she loves him deeply and wants to continue with him until the end of her days.

After Lisette's departure, Giovanni found Carcassonne, a dreary and boring town, he no longer wished to be there, in those days he met a childhood friend, Genaro, who went with his family to visit his hometown every summer, and they used to play together during that time.

Genaro was dedicated to painting, he is an artist, I explain that he wanted to live in Montmartre, since most of the painters, poets, and writers live there, for this reason, he expected to be surrounded by those people, and he was only passing through that place.

Giovanni, however, realizes that Genaro's presence is disturbing him, because a need has been born inside him, a desire to embrace him, to kiss him, to caress his body, but this makes him uncomfortable, anguishes him, to the point of not being able to sleep.

Before leaving, Genaro asks Giovanni to be his model, as he would like to do some sketches the boy gladly accepts, as he wants to spend as much time as possible with him.
 
While posing, Giovanni perceives how Genaro's gaze pierces his skin, which produces a great excitement in him, the atmosphere is intimate and subtle, and there is an intrinsic invitation to get involved, to go beyond the limits and succumb to passion.

The artist and the model have broken their barriers, they love each other with frenzy, Giovanni knew what he felt for that man, the feeling that had been brewing in his heart could finally be born.

When Genaro woke up, Giovanni looked out the window and felt empty and disappointed.

Paris, work and the company of his beloved Lisette helped Giovanni to cope with the pain. 

One summer afternoon, Giovanni made his usual walk along the Seine River, and a cool and soft breeze caressed his face, he stopped to feel it, and at that moment came to mind the face of Genaro, immediately opened his eyes because he did not want to remember him anymore.

However, as she was walking towards the Procope café, she bumped into a group of men, and one of them turned to see her, it was the artist she once loved, at that moment, the lovers briefly exchanged glances, they did not give each other time for a Bonjour, comment allez-vous, nor were there any complaints or farewells, they simply ignored each other and went on with their lives.</p></div>
