– Are you sure that you should go to the funeral? – Xenia looked empathically at sad Natalie.

– I have to go, it’s my duty for a friend. – eyes looked around, in nowhere, her thoughts were not here.

– Can you stand it? I know that you are strong and you won’t break, but… Look in my eyes and say: “I will manage”.

She approached – Natalie and looked directly at her in eyes.

– I can handle! – her words sounded confident.

***

Not many people attended the funeral, Arthur admitted to only interesting people. His relatives stood in side, people came up and expressed their condolences.

A young man stood beside Natalie. He smelled this same sweet perfume, like Arthur. He wore a large hood, his face couldn’t be seen. You could see the malicious smile that plunged Natalie into perplexity and a little angry.

– Do you think it’s funny? – she reproached the guy.

– Sorry, he was just my friend, although we not were well acquainted.

The guy looked Natalie right in eyes, she shuddered. She still couldn’t see his face.

– Between us like an eternity, and As if we are one… Not I even know how Explain…

The guy turned away and was buried into themeditations, not arranging.

– I’m Natalie, – the girl held out her hand.

The stranger answered with an indifferent handshake, staying in his meditations, not telling his name.

– He asked me … – he said slowly, as if recalling what asked him Arthur about.

– Asked than?

Her words returned the guy to reality.

– Excuse me…

The guy headed towards exit from cemeteries.

Natalie watched him go, completely confused. About what did Arthur ask him? The people on the cemetery were looking at Natalie. She didn’t have time to think about this guy, she cringed and put her hands in pockets coat. There she felt a piece of paper. She reached and unfolded, seeing Arthur’s handwriting.

It said: “Everything turned out very tragically, in my style. Now you have to clear up my deed. We are bound by my death and your happiness. I planned all this for one week to my ascension. The price to tell you this is so high, I’m sorry. I acted like a bastard, but this outcome was the best. Not pay attention to people’s views, do what you always wanted, don’tdwell on my death. And it’s not worth living in this small town, you are not endure this…

My death laid the foundation for your happiness.”

Natalie glanced at exit from cemetery, but that guy disappeared, she wanted to escape, she was stopped by Xenia, who came to her.

– Are you OK? – Xenia’s voice returned to Natalie to the reality.

– No, I’m not OK. Arthur is right, I’m gone, – she looked into the distance, in the distance of the desert, where the clouds were already gathering. The girl’s eyes filled with tears.

– It is decided that there will be a sea here, – Natalie said with a grin.

How often do we hear the words: “Don’t go away, I need you”, ” I won’t live without you,”, ” I love you.”? And how much do they cost when we say them?. All this world depends on friend, on the moment and consequences of this relationship…

A we leave and only sometimes we think to return, when nothing can be returned.
