Far away in an eastern European country, a 30 year old girl is living her life like everyone one of us. She works daily and travels long way in the dusty Bucharest just like so many other people do, trying to face every day for living. Her life see...

"Nothing is sure, but everything is possible."
Indeed, every day since my arrival in London, had been a box full of surprises and I didn't know what I could have possibly expect from the next ones to come. To be honest, in that morning I didn't have too much time to process the idea that Laura was coming to London to see me and I didn't even know how I was going to meet her and spend time with her, having in view the crazy schedule we were given. All that I knew was that I had to go down to the breakfast room as quickly as I could, as I was getting late for the course.
Still, I could not stop in amazing myself in front of everything that was happening to me daily since I was there, I could not believe the magic and how all those things were for real.
If Laura was coming many things were about to change around – it was great just knowing the fact that there would have been someone I could have shared everything openly with and be able to talk about how I was feeling daily. Because everything was so intense, and I needed her there, that was for sure.
When I went down at the reception, on my way to have breakfast, I had the impression I saw Andrew standing there looking around. And I was not mistaken, it was exactly Andrew. I went straight to him, happy we met again. He had something I have always appreciated and, when he saw me, his face turned into a big smile. He said:
- Good morning, Miha! How are you, my pretty lady? I haven't seen you since you arrived in here. I know I've been caught up with my duties and I didn't have time to check how everyone was doing, for sure, but how are you? Is everything alright? Anything I could be of support with?
I liked the fact he was saying directly my name and not some other forms of politeness which was not the case to have with me, as we both were having a sort of complicity which was tacit, which was somehow hard to explain, but which I was enjoying. Maybe he wasn't even aware of it and it was all just in my mind... I have always liked Andrew and felt he was really doing an excellent job by being at the service of all the crew, all the time.
- Oh, good morning to you, too, Andrew! What a surprise to have you here so early in the morning here at the hotel! I am alright, thank you, just that I got up pretty late today... But don't tell Lou, I said laughing. I went to bed a bit late last night and this morning was a real challenge when it came to wake up.
- Oh, I understand. If I may ask, did you girls have any party? How do you like London so far? he asked me, and I could not stop noticing a shade of curiosity on his face. I'm sure he just wanted to be friendly with me and I was glad to see people genuinely cared about us there and about how we were feeling.
- Ah, no, no party. I went with Lou and some of the girls to a fashion show which lasted until late at night and, even if I knew I had to wake up early, it was very hard for me to get asleep. But it was a great show, with lovely people.
