He remembered the evening fifty years ago, when he made an offer to his future wife. So they agreed to meet in the park, and he could not wait for the work day. Victor was a young chemist scientist, confidently stepping on his father’s footsteps. Victor saw her in Shakespeare’s play “Sleep on the Mill Night” and was amazed at the special glitter of her eyes and unusual, joyful energy, which was heard in every phrase, gesture and Russia. He was amazed at her boldness when he handed her a bouquet with a note and her courage when she called the phone herself. Nellie thanked him in his attention, but rejected the meeting.

Subsequently, she believed in the serious intentions of the fan, and they began to meet. That evening, Victor mentioned now, she told him “yes” and they no longer parted. Nellie this morning, too, woke up early. She heard the steps of the man and felt the smell of coffee, but did not come out. It should be particularly good on this day. Gold wedding. Exactly fifty years ago, they lay on one pillow and aged. They signed up much later, but the wedding anniversary considered the day in which, standing in the park face to face, gave oaths of loyalty and put on a wedding ring in honor of mutual, eternal love. His parents did not live up to this event, and there was no one to throw reproaching views on the girl that it suddenly appeared on the verge of their home. He showed the bride of his mother and said:

– It’s your room. You can do everything here as you want. But Nelley did not change anything and soon felt that she was grateful to her for keeping her mother’s memory. She looked into the same mirrors, sat in the same chair, pushed and closed the same curtains. One beloved woman changed the other, and it was well. The victor made his father’s office, who remembered the sleepless nights of the famous professor, who kept his scientific works and many interesting books created by the best minds of mankind. In this house, Nellie and Victor grew two children and said goodbye to them. The daughter and the son became neither scientists nor artists, they found their way. This morning wandered memories. Having tidy up, Nellie left the room and went to the kitchen. She should cook a wonderful breakfast, something very sophisticated and delicious, what her husband especially loves. But not having time to start the idea, she heard the voice of Victor:- Dear!

She turned: he stood in front of her in a source suit with a bouquet of purple roses.- Nellie, don’t think to cook anything! He said. – Today, your hands will not touch either the knife or the cutting board. Away with pots and frying pans! He stretched the flowers with his wife and added:- Here are exactly fifty, as many years we are together. Welli took the roses and lowered their faces into them. An elastic, cool petals touched the skin, the charming aroma enveloped and moved to the world of dreams. “Sleep on the Summer Night”-the world of elves and fairies-bring him a man, whom she fell in love once and for all.-Throw something! Said the husband to his wife. – We will go to the city. First we have a breakfast somewhere, and then we look into our park, ride on a boat, we will feed the swans. I will have a surprise for you.

– Which one? Nellie asked in surprise. “You see, hurry!” I want to eat terribly. They left the house that was happy for many years, and gave up the city – there was no better for them. The cafe on the square treated them with a dumplings with ham, croissants with chocolate and tea Earl Gray. The old park met with green trees, lush grasses and bright colors of flowers. The treadmills were forced to wander, closer to the lake, the manivated coolness. The man and his wife took the boat and rode the water long, throwing the crumbs of the landscape. Fifty-year-old love settled in a cozy gazebo, enjoying the singing of the birds and looking into each other’s eyes to say again silently: “How good!”. When the sun was slowly leaning west, Nellie said:- I was hungry. Maybe it’s time for us? Victor looked at the clock, nodded and answered:

– It is time to reinforce. There is a wonderful new restaurant nearby. They came out of the park, holding hands and stepping on the narrow streets of the old town. One of them brought into a cozy patio. The open gates were decorated with garlands of ribbons and flowers. At the entrance, a guy and a girl danced in theatrical costumes – fairy and elfa. Seeing the visitors, they began to smile and waved their hands, inviting her head to the sign above the gate and read:- Sleep on the summer night. She’s eyes were surprisedly grabbed, then they appeared in their confusion. She asked her husband helplessly. – How to understand it?- Don’t worry, beloved! This is a gift, mine, our children and grandchildren. Today is the day of opening their restaurant. They are waiting for us inside. Let’s go! Elf and fairy at the threshold became away, passing the guests inside. Nellie and Victor entered, holding hands. Fifty years have gone like a dream night. How short does life seem when she is so beautiful
