ENG - Roberta was afraid of the dark, she didn't know if this fear was due to some childhood trauma, but this didn't change her problem. When she arrived in the house she would turn on all the lights at the same time, even in all the rooms where she did not need to go. Once there was a power failure in the electrical system of the city and for a few minutes Roberta was left in the dark, thinking that she would go crazy so much was the panic she felt. So from that day she had put candles, torches and lighters in every room and in every bag, to try to feel herself a little bit safer.
IT - Roberta aveva paura del buio, non sapeva se questa paura era dovuta a qualche trauma infantile, ma questo non cambiava il suo problema. Quando arrivava in casa accendeva tutte le luci contemporaneamente, anche in tutte le stanze dove non aveva bisogno di andare. Una volta c'era stato un calo di tensione all'impianto elettrico della città e per qualche minuto Roberta era rimasta al buoio pensando che sarebbe impazzita tanto era il panico che aveva provato. Cosi da quel giorno aveva messo candele, torce e accendini in ogni stanza e in ogni sua borsa, per sentirsi un po' più sicura.
