Therefore, when he was hundreds of kilometers away from her, he introduced himself to her as the Devil – she was not surprised.

Then he teased and scolded her for her cowardice in endless conversations in her room – that "you probably always knew who I was." But that was not the case. She believed that HE was just a stranger. Beautiful and not at all dangerous.

There were many loves before him, but they were all deaf and tightly hopeless: why love if you cannot defend your own dignity? If you don't feel proud. You don’t feel. When should you stop? She would have given up thinking about him long ago if he hadn't helped her like that. She could always ask him for advice, and it is so close, so good!

But life was valuable to her, and besides, she knew, as long as you live, you can still fix it.
