She stood on the edge of the rock, forgetting about everything. Behind her, through the endless fields, the road stretched monotonously, and who knows if it had an end. And ahead opened a serene blue sky, underlined by the green stripe of an old forest. She could look into this distance forever. A strong gust of wind ripped a flax hat from her head, the same as a dress, and carried it to the unknown. She was surprised at first, but then she laughed. She threw her arms out to the sides, inhaling fresh air and covering her eyes.
That's what it meant for her to be free. All around - every ray of the sun, the noise of the forest, the smell of grass, the sweep of the bird's wing - all this was woven into a harmonious, jeweled work of the canvas of the world. And here she felt that she was a small, but still a part of this magical canvas.

But just a week ago, before him, hospitably opened the door to life full of impressions and desires. Most recently, holding hands, slowly walked barefoot on the wet sand, and she talked about all the places she visited. Getting to know her forever will remain in his soul, like a picture from a summer holiday, on which happiness is embodied.
And now he returned to the beginning again.
That day it was hot, but to remove the jacket, bored for a long time, it was forbidden. He was sitting on a bench near the main entrance of a large firm, smoking one cigarette after another, worrying that the deal of his life was on the verge of collapse.

In his memory, forever struck nothing unremarkable, but such a warm, clear and fresh, like a light breeze, "Hello".
