Was there any explanation? Marta sat down on a bench seeing the cars passing. The noise of engines was flooding everything and, however, she could still listen to the sea at the distance: constant and mysterious. But what was really concentrate on was her heartbeat strength. She smiled. Arrived only four days ago to that coastal village. Was enough. Finally, she was alive.
She got up and approached the cliff rail. Closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She allowed the saltpetre smell to penetrate her lungs, to invade all her cells and block it to go back. That was the real life! She took distance, one metre, two, three... walking resolutely and with her head held high. Her porcelain skin was shinning as never did. She could live there but her real life was waiting for her in the city. She took a step forward and left her castle.
