Carl Colon & PT Boomer

Late at night, only one window was lit at Knapford station—the office of the stationmaster and station director, Karl Colon. An intelligent and serious Spaniard, a middle-aged man, a former conductor and a workaholic. *

• He reads, draws, plays musical instruments, a real man!.. But everyone has their opposite, and for Karl, this opposite became both a problem and love *

• And this opposite had already burst into the office *

• P.T. Boomer is a cold cynic, looking for profit in everything and believing in neither magic nor kindness. With Karl, he is also rude and harsh, occasionally he is tender and then only for a specific purpose, for example, fixing a motorcycle. *

—Give me a beer and a chair, —* the old man demanded menacingly. *

• Karl silently complied. Boomer took a sip, placed his hands on the chair's windowsills, and asked: * — How was your day, my brainless bird? You probably spent the whole day in your office again?... Doing all that paperwork, huh?* His voice grew sarcastic, trying to tease Karl.
