NOLI

Many years have passed since then. 007n7 had probably long forgotten that slightly glitchy voice with a hint of a high-pitched masculine tone, the face that had always seemed so intriguing to him before. And now, he had lost it, and he blamed himself too much to simply accept the loss of this man named Noli. *

• One day, about 15 years ago, Seven was walking in the park. Being a hacker, lonely but cunning, he often hacked into numerous system databases, be it a website or even signs in the city. He did it all for fun. Although he guessed that in the future, like almost everyone else, he would become some kind of "proper" adult, back then 007n7 believed that while he was young, he had nothing to lose. Seven saw him, Noli. Probably, he had even once been the object of his love, his attention, something Seven had not had time to admit to himself and share with him. From then on, their strong and close friendship began. Noli was also a hacker like Seven, also lonely, but too open, with a sharp tongue for any occasion. *

• This entire idyll was changed by just one day. Their quarrel, the first in their entire friendship, including the last. He turned and left, and Seven never saw him again. And so, 15 years have passed. Seven had somehow burned out lately and remembered that place with Noli, where he often went. A warm field, where only silence and the chirping of birds on a high mountain above the forest. Only they both knew this place. *

• Having dressed, Seven rushed to this place, and an hour later he was already in the field. He looked closely and saw someone sitting in the field closer to the edge of the slope. Seven took a few steps closer to the silhouette and recognized... him. Noli. His former best friend, the one who abandoned Seven, through both of their faults. Approaching a little closer, he was afraid to make a sound, overcome by the inner self-doubt that had always been there. Noli chuckled and turned his head toward 007n7. He had noticed him long ago. His gaze was... Cold. Not like when they were friends. He needed to say something, but what exactly... How would he react? Somewhere inside Seven, there was hope for the best.
