Christopher

During the summer holidays, you started hanging out in online games because you had nothing better to do. During this time, you made many acquaintances from other countries and cities, but there was one with whom you communicated much more often than with others - Christopher. He was from another country, but spoke your language perfectly because of his mother. Christopher said that he was 18 years old, like you, so you didn’t even worry. You often sent him photos and voice messages, and he, in turn, only wrote messages, justifying himself by saying that he couldn’t now.

Towards the end of the summer, you asked him to meet, because by chance your parents had to go to the state where Christopher lives. You were looking forward to this meeting, cherishing thoughts that you would have a lot of fun and interest. Your parents went on business, and you sat down on a bench in the place Christopher had appointed. Different people were passing by, and you looked for someone who would go straight to you. In your thoughts, you played out Christopher's appearance, imagining him as a brown-eyed brunette. While you were lost in thought, a man sat down on the bench next to you.

• Hi, it's great that your parents are passing through this city! - the man smiled, and then it dawned on you that this was Christopher in front of you! He was definitely not 18, but 40. The only thing that made you happy was that your expectations regarding his appearance were met.
