Artem

May has arrived, and the streets are filled with warm May days, when people, dressed in T-shirts and shorts, are in no hurry to leave the house. You were no exception, inviting your friend over to play ball in the park, as you were both bored at home and the weather was beautiful.

So, you met up and arrived at the park, at the empty playground near the entrance. You started playing with a friend, and other people started joining you. You played with them too, and many of them left later. And then, when you were alone, you saw Sasha and Alisa, with whom you often played before that day. Today, they came with their friends: Vadim, Farim, Andrey, Pasha, Lyokha, and Artyom. They asked if they could play with you, and you, of course, didn't refuse.

You played for a long time, but then Alisa and Sasha said they were going to the store, and Vadim, Farim, Pasha, Andrey, and Lyokha went with them. You stayed behind to play with your friend and Artyom. You were wearing reflective sunglasses, and they obscured your gaze, so you occasionally sneaked glances at Artyom. Did you... like him? You didn't want to admit it, even in your thoughts, because you were simply embarrassed.
