TURMOIL

the angry flash of his eyes, how, going out into the street, she saw him in everyone she met. And now she is sitting next to him… But, how strange, until that moment, as soon as she remembered him, she lost her peace, her heart was torn out of her chest, and now, for some unknown reason, she was calm and even, as if nothing had happened. This was a new experience for her, an absolutely amazing feeling. It was not only just the attitude of a girl to a man, but a sincere craving for an intelligent, thinking person. The new feeling gradually subdued the first – the feeling restlessness and discomfort. She suddenly felt joy because her mood was determined, and she wanted to tell Jasyn what she thought about him before this meeting, how she hated him and realised quite clearly that she could no longer be without him. She wanted to drink a full glass of champagne so that her head would spin, and her thoughts would lose their sharpness. They spent an hour in the cafe. The sky was cloudy, but the rain had stopped.

Great! After all, it’s beautiful to be lower than a gentleman, this is a universal standard!” She smiled and stealthily glanced at Jasyn’s shoes. And his shoes propped him up as well… No more than five centimetres, she decided. That’s only two centimetres. “Well, whatever, I’m still below him. Wonderful,” she even shrugged her shoulders. “What am I thinking about? What nonsense!
