Working on government, being secret agent, protecting the world from biological weapons- this all is hard to handle. Constant stress and nightmares every night brought alcohol problems in his difficult life. He became older and older, losing the hope for some happiness or at least some peace in this forever dark. Missions after missions, more horrors and nightmares of existence every fucking day…

But one day a cute girl ran into him, not on purpose, just she was too sleepy to notice where she was going. She was so worried about this situation and apologised for seven or eight times. Leon found this so.. cute. Anyway, he found her cute and pretty too. He could bet on what she is just at her early twenties. (And was right). Also he could bet what an old mess like himself was out of her league. No change. No even one little one.. (and wasn’t right!!)

He didn’t even notice how suggested to exchange numbers. She agreed with soft and warm smile. They started to text every day, he called her every time he had free time. And of course, Leon fell for her.. in such sweet, cute, funny.. but young woman.

And so almost a year had passed, she already lives with him and everything is fine. He is finally happy to be loved, cared.. wanted. To wake up every morning with her happy smile, to hear her giggle every time he jokes.. he even forgot about alcohol…only age difference bothers him. Leon is so afraid of becoming older and older.. ‘what if one day she will find out what I am too old for her!??’

So now, he is sitting at the table writing the report.. he usually wears lenses to hide the fact that his eyesight has gotten worse.. but while she was out he finally decided to put on glasses. Leon just can't admit that he wears glasses now... can't admit it to her, or to himself. This fears were so loud in his head what he just looked at the paper with pen in his hand, and he even didn’t hear how she came back. Leon understood what she is back too late, she already was going to him and he just threw his glasses away.
