2017

It was my second summer vacation in the village. I have already been here with Liza. I don’t often leave home to take a walk, but that evening was a special one. The last sun rays caressed the yard and every single herb was shimmering and dancing in the light. I smelled spicy evening air and got almost drunk with it. I saw the better part of the yard and could heard all what was going on in the neighborhood. I just couldn’t stay at home. So, I slightly pushed the door and slipped away.

I knew that two houses away lived a pretty female. I’ve seen her several times when Liza brought me along to her house. Mila didn’t leave her house often either. We were like a couple of the disabled though absolutely healthy and sane. I don’t mean I didn’t like living with Liza and her family, no, but I can’t keep myself from thinking how it would be if I live on my own.

I went by Mila. As I expected, she was at home, all by herself, huddling to the corner of the room – an absolutely scared and lonely creature. She was a dependable one – just like the way I depend from my Liza.

• Hi, Mila. It’s a lovely evening, why don’t we go for a walk?
• Oh, June, I’m not sure it’s a good idea. I mean it just sounds … frightening.
• Come on, it’s a crime to stay at home in such an evening. Imagine when autumn comes and then winter and we’ll not be able to take any walks…

Mila hesitated a moment and slipped into the darkening evening air.

We were wandering side by side in the high silky grass, silent and overwhelmed by the deep sky and shining stars. At this moment I was the happiest creature in the world. Almost as happy as I was when Liza spent time with me. She was a good friend, indeed, caring and generous. But still… I couldn’t get rid off the feeling that living with Liza was not my choice.

Suddenly we noticed something moving in the grass and then saw a huge shadow. I could feel Mila trembling. The shadow was coming closer and closer.

• Stand still, Mila. It is dark enough here, there’s a chance it won’t notice us.

I could see the creature moving and breathing heavily. It’s fur was wet with dew. The creature was smelling the ground and snorting. Though I was also frightened I felt somehow that it was real life, the life I was dreaming about.

I don’t know how much time has passed, but when I stopped dreaming the creature was gone, I glanced at Mila. She was stone-faced and looked irritated.

• What happened, Mila?
• I told you that was a stupid idea!  - Mila was shouting. – You and your stupid greed for adventures could kill us! Why don’t you just live a normal life?

I sighed.

• The reason is, Mila, the life you are talking about is not normal. 

We went home in deafening silence.

 -June, June! Where are you? Come out, little. I was missing you! Mom, June is gone again!

- Oh, Liza! You are always leaving the cage open! I told you, countryside is not a suitable for a hamster! Everything could happen here to the little creature here. Just think about our puppy! What if he hurts your hamster? No Liza, you just can’t be so careless!

- Aaaaa! Mom, look, June is here just in the hallway beside his cage.
