Rumors again

Along with the wheels of the train, which made the sound of footsteps, the hands of the clock also paced forward. The little wall clock beat its rhythm so loudly, wishing to speed up the pace of the event. But the Sun decided everything. And the Sun decided that evening would come through Adelard's many attempts to get the house in order. Wanting to do something for Percival, Adelard decided to clean the house. But it turned out to be much more complicated than that. Never before had he held a bucket and a mop in his hands. And never before had he felt happy at the sight of the clean windows he had just cleaned. But the mess that was everywhere frightened him. But the fear did everything to make him act. And so, along with Orion and Armand, who was wrapped in a blanket and tied to him, Adelard set to work. The most various things that could only exist in this world created a whole stream, if not a waterfall. There were clocks, paintings, photographs, statues, books, records, candela

Feeling home and love

Now that the house was much cozier and too clean, Adelard felt utter happiness. Looking at his reflection, in the small bathroom, which had a few buckets and nothing else, he adjusted his hair and looked at his dark green jacket. Remembering that this was the suit he always wore to greet important guests in his office, he closed his eyes and took a deep breath. His past no longer mattered. He was no longer sad. He didn't care anymore. Suddenly, the whole past became a simple movie. Leaving the bathroom, he took Armand in his arms and checked the plate of food that was for Orion. Closing the door behind him, he looked around and a smile appeared on his beautiful face. "What a beautiful evening. Look, it's Moon. Isn't it beautiful?" he asked Armand and the child made a sound in response and then laughed. Slowly heading toward Bernadette's house, he inhaled the cool air. And with each exhale, he opened his eyes wider to see all the beauty of the place. "If I were an artist, I would alw

Dangerous plan. Part one.

"What is your name again?" Amidst the dust and money, there were only two of them in the office that belonged to Adelard. Though Percival had never seen the place, he still felt that the walls and the whole building were very tired. He sensed evil everywhere. And for the first time, he divided the world into good and evil. But there was no way it could have been. After all, what explanation could be given for what was in the eyes of a man who was too tired to raise his head and face it bravely. Through the rays of the sun, which could barely penetrate the dust, Percival looked at Jean and tried to calm himself. So he asked, "Monsieur, are you unwell?" Covering his face from the sun with a newspaper and not knowing where to find the strength to get up and close the window, Jean replied, "Yes. I have a bad headache." "What's wrong?" This question made Jean look up. But he could not bear the gaze of Percival, who stared at him from the depths of h

Dangerous plan. Part two.

Sitting in the very corner of the room, in front of the cauldrons and workers who continued to brew soap, Percival took a deep breath and suddenly remembered the smell of Adelard's hair. And yet his hair still held the scent of that factory. Thinking about it, Percival felt hatred and a desire for revenge. His gaze slid from one object to another and so on until he saw Jean. Jean, even after all this time, continued to be what he had always been. His playful eyes always glittered with greed and all sorts of desires. He embodied humanity itself. Yes,  people always hide greed and desire within themselves. Sometimes it seems as if person is alive only because of greed and desire. Standing in front of everyone, in his brown suit, Jean smiled and said something to the young man. And maybe Percival was looking too closely, because Jean felt his gaze and waved. Percival smiled too, and showed him the soap that was ready for sale. Jean made an approving gesture

Just a life

The sound of rain began to whisper again. That whisper held Adelard's voice. Listening to his voice, Percival went to the window and breathed in the cold air. But the longer he stood looking out at the town, the faster he began to fall asleep. As if by magic, he began to hear the sounds of the sea. The waves were taking him with them, to where Adelard was sitting by the window, also watching the rain. The waves of the sea were between them and the walls between good and evil. Feeling the softness of his pillow and the warmth of his blanket, Percival closed his eyes and through his closed eyelids saw a glimpse of lightning. This rain was still telling the story. About the mother who left her child to find a better life in the midst of her old life. About the man who was left alone in this world, with a child and a broken heart. The rain reminded him of these two people who never stopped being in his thoughts. The meditation turned into a stream of dreams that lasted as lon

Happy life and peace

They were all walking down a path, right in the woods, where there were too many birds and squirrels running around. The symphony of nature was as mesmerizing as ever, taking away all the anxiety and worry. And even every sound of a broken branch was full of mystery and something beautiful. It was as if something magical lived in the forest itself, something reminiscent of childhood. Adelard, with his hands in his pockets, moving lightly and slowly, looked up at the clear sky. And Armand, too, in Tilda's arms, was looking up at the sky. "He's so small, but so smart. What is that look? It's like he can think," Tilda said, studying every shade of his eyes, which changed every time something moved around. "Adelard, you know the baby needs a mother, don't you? Aren't you thinking of getting married?" Helena asked, grabbing his hand. But he didn't even move, didn't even smile or flinch. And most importantly, he didn't even notice the beauty that was

Nice people. Part one.

On the other side of the earth, not so far away and not so close, with thoughts and worries, Percival continued packing soaps. His hands were already accustomed to certain movements and so, he could continue working while his eyes watched Jean. As Percival entered the factory, Jean visibly revived and began to walk among the workers frequently. The expression on his face visibly changed, and every time he looked at Percival, he smiled broadly, so much so that his eyes closed. Percival, on the other hand, smiled back, but he himself imagined how justice would visit this man's life. Tonight, working late into the evening, all the men were too tired to notice the rain and Jean's merry jokes. In the dim light, everyone looked at the clock every second and then their gaze stopped on Jean. In doing so, each of them thought of Adelard. But what could they do? They kept quiet as long as they were paid, they endured as long as they were fed. But even if the soap sold well, even

Nice people. Part two.

For the next two hours, Percival watched the play and everyone. He despised their laughter and fun. The play wasn't funny or sad, but they were still doing what everyone else was doing. With hunger for everything that was around them, people themselves didn't know what they wanted. But you could see the madness in everyone's eyes. None of them thought, none of them cared about the other person's feelings. They lived only to destroy the kindness in their way. And it is true, the goal of humanity, is to neglect the kindness and destroy it as soon as possible. But why? After all, why is it so good to be so cruel and deceitful and without a single thought? And the good thing about it is that it is an easy life. It's easy, after all, to live without thinking about one's actions, to live without thinking about the feelings of others and without any responsibility, to live with a false smile while one can manage to hide behind a mask. It's a perfectly easy life. And sometimes, people alway

Nice people. Part three.

Adelard spent the next few hours by just contemplating the nature. He liked to look out the window of the train, just like when he was a child. He was flying through empty steppes, through forest, tunnel, and past mountainous terrain. His gaze clung to the Sun, which slowly let the Moon take its place. His attempts to stop time were naive, but still he continued to stare at the sun until the train finally stopped. Night had not yet fallen. There was a pleasant sunset all around and so, Adelard was happy. For he could clearly see Percival's face. Quickly leaving the train, he ran towards the town. He didn't even pay attention to the fact that the memories, like little birds, were trying to draw his attention to themselves. He didn't care that this was where he was born. He didn't care that every corner reminded him of something. After all, he had long since noticed a tall figure near the tree. "Percival!" "Adelard come. Hurry!" "Where are

Armand. Part one.

Looking out the window, Adelard remembered Nicholas. Perhaps by chance, not so far away, somewhere on the steppe, Nicholas looked out the window and smiled. And so, the night with all the stars and the moon came to tell tales and remind everyone of dreams. Only now immersed in memories did Adelard remember everything. And again pain and sadness took their place in a heart that was just healing. But how quickly the heart can remember pain and break again. At times it seems that the heart only lives by pain and sadness, because how quickly it can forget the good things and absorb all the unpleasant feelings. After all, even love, also a kind of pain. And why does a person even remember everything? Isn't it always to feel pain? But what would be if a person remembered nothing and started each day anew? What would the heart do then? But the strangest thing in this world is that when the heart is sad, nature responds with sadness too. The sun turns to rain and it gets dark around you. Th
