Отрывок из книги
A dome of the inky blue sky dressed in fragile diamonds of stars spread out over her head. Closer to its edge, darkness dispersed, blending with yellow spots, unable to resist the large city lights. But that was out there, in the noisy and fussy metropolis. Here, outside the city, evening silence could be broken only by a distant noise of a car passing by, by suddenly loud barking of a dog or by some voices near a neighboring house.
Reep-reep… – a miserable response of a thick chain with swings hanging on it. Jenny used to love spending time here. She used to. And now she came here to hide in her dear little world from horrifying reality she still couldn’t accept…
.....
Having got to her room, Jenny closed the door after herself and sat at the window without turning on the light. Voices and sounds were heard from downstairs, but she remained indifferent to them. Even when someone knocked carefully on her door and a female voice informed her that Ms. Walker and Mrs. Brown would stay here for the night for her to feel calmer, Jennifer answered nothing.
She didn’t see any point in observing some stupid proprieties anymore.
.....
