Who wants to live forever?

For every author, the balance between popularity and anonymity, between truth and fiction, between solitude and public life, between one's own beliefs and social currents, is extremely important.
After a phone call in response to a radio advertisement, a boy does not come home. A strange man appears to his parents and tells them that their son has "died" in a way. He is not actually dead, but to them, it will be as if he is.

Who wants to live forever?

Friday evening, May 22, 2025. Rich family in front of the TV. Advertising is running.

"Who wants to Live Forever? The dream of many people - COME TRUE! The first 50 people win, we are waiting for volunteers. Call ************ IMMEDIATELY.
- Simon, did you hear that?! What do you think? - says an excited middle-aged woman to her husband, who looks up from the e-journal and replies in a calm tone.
- Yes, and it is written in the journal. It must be a publicity stunt, maybe it's a rejuvenation cream.
- Father, will I not live forever? - asks their six and a half year old son.
"No, Tony, but there's plenty of time until the time comes to worry," says the father with a smile.
- I'll call anyway, Simon.
- Call Anna, call... You know I want you young and beautiful - the husband slightly ironically.

Still Friday evening May 22, 2025. A couple of young people found solitude in an old shed in the yard of a suburban house. The radio is playing.
