It was happened with me unexpectedly, I saw her in the window of the shop. She was moveless in her static position. Her hair was on her shoulders in peaceful way. Her eyes were staring at the far, invisible horizons. She didn't pay attention on me, although I passed by her every day. When I came out of my house to the work, I chose the road on purpose where she was. It seemed to me, she was waiting for me, but her eyes were speechless and I was upset. I went so long to get her, sometimes I was late for my work and my boss was angry with me, but I needed in her presence in my life. 

I didn't tell my friends about my passion, they had to laugh at me, I was so scared to hear unpleasant critics to my address. They wouldn't understand me. I didn't know why, but that girl in the shop was attractive for me. If you asked me to describe her, I thought, I couldn't do it. But if we spoke about my feelings and emotions, my words would fly from my mouth with high speed. I felt near her like I was in the river, where I was swimming so slow and then I fell into the ocean, big and unpredictable. 

Once, in June, I was passing by my favourite shop, I felt the sharp pain in my heart. What's wrong? Who dared to take my piece of heart? I forgot about the problems at my job, I had deadlines and my boss warned to fire me if I was late again. For me, it was unimportant in that moment. I rushed into the shop, before I had never known what kind of things were being sold there. When I was inside, I saw a girl, obviously, she was a shop assistant. No losing my time, I came to her and asked

- Where did you take away the mannequin which was in that window for a year?

- Ok, sir. Today the swimsuit has been sold, that's why we took it away. - The girl answered fast.

- Swimsuit? Was there the swimsuit on her? - I whispered.

- The blue one with yellow ribbon. Perhaps, you wanna buy it for the present for somebody! - But, I didn't listen to this girl. I wanna run away, stay alone and see nobody. What did I lose? Maybe, I figured out something new. That day, I didn't come to my work back and even didn't come home back. I was walking along the quay all night. Night is wonderful period of time. Till I haven't noticed how my life can be brilliant. 

Early morning, I woke up with one thought in my head, I wanna go to the shop again. I was already unemployed, no business in a day, so I went along the familiar way. That road was secret signals in my soul, my conscious didn't realise yet, but my body already did. When I approached to the shop, my braveness flew away and I just watched for the coming customers. I was there till the evening, some cafes started to close, the lights were shining in the street, but my shop was working. As soon I thought to go home, forget my past life and start new one, she appeared in front of my eyes. My eyes didn't believe, but my body did, it was she. Her pace was light, her hair was on her shoulders and in her hand she had a package with the swimsuit, blue with yellow ribbon. Now, I exactly knew that was she. My feet became like popcorn from my big happiness, but I took my courage and called her:  "Lady, you've something dropped!" - It was one which was in my mind. 

She turned around, her hair was waving like in a beautiful advertisement of shampoo. I saw in her eyes that far road where the mountains were seen. She was unfamiliar to me and the same time she was so close to me. But she recognised me. 

- Again! You! Unfortunately, we have no blue swimsuits. - The girl pronounced by her calm sweet voice. I only looked into her eyes and smiled. It was getting dark, so it was already dark. She and I were walking along the quay under gorgeous star sky of this wonderful night, our night.
