Alberto woke up confused, with a pounding headache, wrapped in silk sheets in a dreamlike room. The ceiling was decorated with golden flowers, and a balcony window offered a breathtaking view of Lake Maggiore. “Where the hell am i?” he wondered, trying to piece together the events of the previous evening. The last thing he remembered was a noisy party, trap music, and salt and lemon on the table. Looking in his pockets, he found a room key with the Grand Hotel logo. “Not bad”, he thought. But there was no time to relax. On the desk, a hastily written note read: “Isola Bella. NOW.” Without knowing who left the message or why, Alberto dressed in his typical outfit: tracksuit, sneakers, sleeveless jacket, and fanny pack. With his unique style (fortunately), he left the room ready to find out what was happening. At the pier, he started asking various boatmen to take him to Isola Bella. But, one by one, they all turned him down with various excuses: “Sorry, I already have another ride”,or “I’m not going there today.” Frustrated, Alberto sat on a bench, thinking of a plan B.

Just when he was about to lose hope, an old sailor with a long white beard and a worn hat approached him. “Looking for a ride, kid?”, he asked with a hoarse but kind voice. “Exactly vecchio, take me to Isola Bella!” The sailor nodded slowly. “Alright, but only because i see you're desperate. Hop on.” Alberto didn't waste any time and jumped onto the boat. During the crossing, the sailor told him stories of past adventures, storms faced, and hidden treasures. But Alberto was too focused on thinking about the previous night. “I should have stopped at the fourth drink”,he thought. Arriving at Isola Bella, Alberto got off the boat and found himself face to face with his worst enemy: the police. Two officers recognized him immediately. “There he is! Get him!” With his heart in his throat and quick steps, Alberto retreated and jumped back onto the old sailor's boat. “Let's go! VECCHIO, HURRY UP!”

With a skilled turn of the helm, the sailor brought Alberto back to Stresa, leaving him at the pier with a three teeth smile. “Good luck, kid. You remind me of myself when I was young and had alcohol problems.” Still without answers, Alberto wandered aimlessly until he found himself in front of a playground. Not knowing why, he decided to enter. Perhaps he was looking for a quiet place to think or a place where he could live from then on. Sitting on a bench, he saw a lonely girl with a sad look. “Hey, excuse me”,he began, “have you seen a group of angry-looking guys in uniform?” The girl looked up and, with a smile, replied, “You're looking for answers, aren't you? Come, sit down.”

Alberto, intrigued, sat next to her. “Who are you? And why should I trust you?”

She sighed, looking into the distance. “I'm the one who left the note. There was something you needed to discover on Isola Bella, but it wasn't the right time. The police are looking for you for an illegal party you organized. But don't worry, I have a plan to get you out of trouble.”

Alberto was stunned. “And why would you do that?” The girl smiled again. “Because I need someone to beat up a few people for me, are you in?” Alberto, pleased with the proposal, replied, “Absolutely!”

And so, with the promise of help and a new companion for adventures, Alberto prepared to face the next chapter of his life, hoping in the meantime to at least remember whether last night was tequila or vodka.

Title: Love between the Borromean Islands

Charles, a young man from Novara, had decided to spend a weekend in Stresa with his group of friends. After a stressful period at work, he needed a break.

The group arrived at the Hotel Regina Palace, but to their surprise, the hotel was full. Not discouraged, they headed to the Hotel des Iles Borromees, another famous hotel of the place.

At the Hotel des Iles Borromees, Charles met Antonia, a German girl who was looking for a room like them. His blond hair and blue eyes immediately caught Charles' attention.

Antonia asked if she could join the group to find a room, and everyone agreed.

The following day, Charles and his friends, together with Antonia, decided to visit the Borromeo Palace on Isola Bella. As they explored the magnificent rooms and gardens, Charles and Antonia found themselves closer and closer. Charles' friends immediately noticed the spark between the two and began teasing them affectionately.

That evening, the group gathered for an outdoor dinner under the stars. Charles and Antonia left the group for a walk along the lake. They talked about everything: their lives, their dreams, their fears. The connection between them became stronger and stronger.

Time passed too quickly, and soon the last day of the journey arrived. Charles knew that Antonia had to return to Germany.

They decided to spend that last day together, exploring every corner of Stresa and the Borromean Islands. Their friends continued to support them, hoping that their bond would last despite the distance.

At the station, Charles and Antonia hugged each other for the last time. Antonia got on the train and him was watched her leave, knowing that that meeting would change her life forever.
