Ball lightning
You always want to spend your vacation well. You do not have to go to distant lands, abroad, to warm islands. I want to communicate with nature, feel the silence of the forest wilderness or wander among the mountains. I just want to distract from the bustle of the city, stop answering endless phone calls.
Fedor picked up his phone and thought about it. You can certainly go somewhere alone, but it would be quite boring. Flipping through the list of phone contacts, he stopped at Martha’s number. Maybe she will keep me company. Martha worked with him in the experimental physics department. He liked it for a long time, but natural shyness always prevented him from communicating.
Decided. I will call her and just like that, by the way, I will invite her to come with me. If he refuses, I will turn it all in jest, as if it is just such plans. Maybe I will get a ticket or something. It is hard to compose. We have to start somewhere. There is such a reason.
– Why did you decide to take a vacation now, the project is not finished yet? – Martha asked. I am not going to get a vacation anytime soon.
– Well, take time off; we will go for a week, no more.
– I will think about it if I call you back.
Two hours later, the bell rang.
– Fedor, have you changed your mind about going yet? I might have a little rest, especially the time before the project is still there.
Fedor was even confused at the first moment. He did not think Martha would accept his offer.
– No, of course – he blurted out. There is an offer to go to the cedar forest. It is beautiful nature and I have got everything ready.
