Читать книгу The Chronicles of Matrons: Sisterhood - Jumakesh - Страница 7

After lying on the bed for a while, I got up and started walking around the room. It took me a long time to get out of the house and see Trandafir with my own eyes. They say it is the most beautiful of all the beautiful cities on the Moon.

So it was time to pull myself together and be a little bolder. I pulled myself together, walked to the door, and next thing I knew, the rose on my arm was supporting me, saying, «Be Braver Shira». If not for the rose’s intervention, I would have been outside a long time ago. No, you don’t think I’m trying to justify my fear, who am I kidding… I was scared.

Everything new in our lives is scary, isn’t it? If you spend your whole life being afraid, what will it eventually lead to? You have to pull yourself together and tell yourself «fear is an illusion». That’s exactly what I did. I said the magic phrase, went to the door, turned the knob, opened the door, and there I was, already standing in the hallway enjoying my success.

Rosa said I was good. She also said it took me two hours to do everything. Mm-hmm. Looks like I’m a loser. But don’t underestimate yourself.

Anyway, I made it, isn’t that what matters? I stood in the hallway enjoying its beauty. The silvery interior emphasised that we were not somewhere in the elephant’s ass, but still on the Moon. By the way, my room was number 107, and it was on the tenth floor. I don’t know where the lift or the stairs are. I saw the lobby and headed towards it. Once in the lobby, I was of course shocked and at the same time realised what a magnificent house we were living in. A silver, huge chandelier floated overhead, right in the middle of the lobby. Just under the chandelier was a Symbol of the Moon and an inscription in a language I did not understand. Maybe it was some kind of Lunar Language, to which the rose on my hand told me that it was the Ancient Language of the Matrons, and on Planet Gaia it is called «Ariabintu» nd the inscription itself meant the following:

Wow, sounds Powerful and Inspiring. There was also a door in the lobby, very pretty and above it was a triangle, with its top pointing to the exit. At that moment I wondered where the lift or the stairs were, after all I live on the tenth floor. I had no choice. Behind me was the corridor I had come from and in front was the door. I decided to go through the door, not knowing what was waiting for me on the other side. It turned out to be much simpler than that. That door was the exit door, because when I went through it, I found myself on the street. Standing outside, I listened to Rose’s explanation of how five-dimensional technology works.

After all, looking at the apartment building, I saw only one floor. Yes, it was a one-storey building. Rose said that there were 19 floors inside this one-storey building and the flats could be located inconsistently. For example, flat number five could be on the seventeenth floor and flat 87 could be on the ground floor. The advantages of this technology were that you didn’t have to go anywhere – once you entered an apartment complex you were immediately on the floor where your flat was located, and the buildings themselves didn’t take up any airspace. There must have been a lot of use of this technology on the planet Gaia, because there are more inhabitants there than on the Moon. It’s 2011 on the planet.

Sometimes they come to the Moon to mine something here, we don’t interfere and try to stay away. Surely by mining something here, it’s something very valuable over there on the planet Gaia.
