On days like these, the world seems to slow down, and with every step you take, you feel more and more alone, even if there are people around you.

    The internal state becomes more profound, as if the question arises by itself: “What’s next?” The bright moments go away, and their place is taken by silence, a little alarming, a little empty. Every step this season seems more deliberate, as if autumn makes you look at the world and yourself differently - not so bright, not so fast.

    “Are you thinking too much again, little mouse?” Claire's gentle hand rested on your shoulders as she placed a cup of hot tea next to you on the windowsill, "Let's drown in our thoughts together then."
