/Dominica/
I'm sitting on cold concrete leaning on cold stone wall behind me. I'm drawing in my notebook. It's actally what I do almost all the time. Why I am outside? Well I like to be outside when it's night. This little village look beautiful at night. Then I heard a car coming. Interesting. Not much people know about this place because it's little and here only old people live and lot of houses are empty. Nearest city is  Ostrava. Yes I'm from Czech Republic. That car stop in front of house beside mine. Nobody lived here 1 year. He didn't move here did he? Then boy with dirty blonde hair and bun on his head come out. He have really good car. He look like he is my age and he come here alone. I get up and go to him. "hey" I say. "Hey" he say. "Why are you here?" I ask. "Uhm... I just moved here" he say. "why? I mean not many people know about this village and here is just old people" I say. "It take me lot of time to find this place and it's perfect because there is not much people, it's quietly and it look beautiful" he say. "but you only have like ... 16 years. Why alone and why place like this" I ask. "You know I just meet you I think I need to get to know you before I tell you" he say. "Yeah I'm sorry" I say little embarrassing. "My name is Marcus" he say. "Dominica" I say. "well now I think I need to get my stuff inside but maybe tomorrow you can come over. This place seem like you are here youngest" he say. "yeah I am everybody else are 50-70 years old" I say. "then see ya tomorrow" he say and smile. "See ya" I say and go home.
