Every day at a certain place and time, an old man and a young man arrive.
Set up a parasol and sit down on a folding chair,
View a deserted landscape with trees evenly spaced.
The young man is called Slava and the old man is called Elbe.
Slava lost his parents at an early age and was left without relatives.
I was picked up by this old man and raised in this town with nothing.
The young man is also a great source of emotional support for Hervé, who has lost a son in the past and has known him for a long time
For them, resting here has become a habit, and they always visit every day unless they have a special reason not to.
This was a place for them to relax.
We've never been the type to talk much to each other.
The air is a little heavy today and I can't make eye contact.
Slava was such a voracious reader that he would read three books every day.
On this day, he stopped after the first 10 pages or so and was blatantly unfocused.
Hervé noticed this, but didn't particularly interject.
Days like this are rare after spending so many years.
Besides, he thinks of the parting that will one day come with Slava.
I was afraid to put myself into him because he was like a son to me.
Even if it is a healthy goodbye.
Slava put the book on the chair without inserting the bookmark, walked a little and stopped.
Herve just watched.
After what must have been 20 minutes, he did not return to the parasol.
Slava is not a silly worry like the love affairs we have had in the past.
It looked like they had a couple problems.
Elbe takes a few minutes to get up to ship heavy.
They exchanged a few words.
The two then put away their parasols, chairs, etc., as usual, and headed home.
The next day, at a fixed place and time, Hervé put up the parasol by himself.
