Michelle sat in the kitchen as the predawn twilight mingled with the warm light from the night lamp. She waited for a truck to transport her belongings from the apartment she had rented for nearly eight years.
Michelle arrived at this apartment as a naive and inexperienced young woman fresh out of school and just starting college. Back then, she felt like a child, and now Michelle was a different person-an adult, knowledgeable about life, carrying the weight of experience. She was even a bit envious of her younger, more enthusiastic self, who believed the best and most exciting experiences were still to come.
Initially, it was like that. Life in the city swept Michelle into a whirlwind of studies, new acquaintances, and unfamiliar entertainment. It was fun. Then, a series of troubles fell on her, forcing her to grow up quickly, shed her rose-tinted glasses, and fight.
Michelle was born and raised in the village, over 100 kilometers away from the bustling city. Her parents had been childless for many years and had tried everything: they traveled to holy sites, visited healing springs, and sought help from various herbalists. This was after official medicine declared Michelle's mother infertile. Doctors didn't give her any chance of becoming pregnant and advised her to either accept the situation or adopt a child. Only then did the couple decide to explore unconventional methods. Eventually, a miracle occurred. However, by the time Michelle was born, her parents were already over 40. While their peers were becoming grandparents, they were just starting to raise a child.
the girls' childhood was idyllic: loving parents, a crowd of friends, and a loyal dog. Summers were filled with bike rides to the river and walks in the forest. In winter, the same group of friends enjoyed sledding down hills and building massive snow fortresses.
Michelle's parents doted on her, finding delight and amazement in all she did. She grew up feeling secure, enveloped in love and acceptance. As she grew older, Michelle did notice that her friends' parents were younger and more physically fit, but this never bothered her. In fact, she used to feel sorry for her peers when she saw how their parents treated them: shouting, showing irritation, and sometimes even resorting to physical punishment. Michelle's family was different. Her parents respected her wishes and were very attentive. Home was a place of unwavering support for Michelle.
"Study to become a white collar her mother advised, "You'll work in a comfortable office, unlike me, who used to work on the farm from dawn to dusk. Physical labor quickly wears out a woman's beauty."
"Listen to your mother!" the father chimed in. "You're smart, you can handle anything!"
The father and mother often set their neighbor's son Brian as an example for Michelle. The boy was short, sturdy, and had a pleasant disposition, though he was not conventionally handsome like the most handsome boy from their school.
Brian was different from the other village children. Instead of playing soccer, he spent his time reading books from the local library. Michelle found it strange that Brian preferred anatomy textbooks and treatises on the human body over adventure novels or comic books. She had trouble understanding the titles of these textbooks, let alone their content!
