Kashentsovs// Angel and Demon

Danila was an angel, but his nature wasn't as gentle and affectionate as required. Dania wasn't evil, no, rather he was serious and calm. He was skeptical of everything, but that didn't stop him from loving certain things. One of Danila's favorite things to do was stroll along the border between heaven and hell. On the border was a green garden with fields and fruitful trees. Danila loved to sit at the very edge of the forest, where the view changed from a green field to a burgundy hellish wasteland. Ruslan, on the other hand, was a demon, albeit a rather gentle one. He found no joy in pain or suffering. He preferred peace and solitude. And in the wasteland, right next to the heavenly forest, loneliness seeped from every crevice. When Ruslan first saw this red-haired, blue-eyed angel with snow-white skin, his heart sank. In Ruslan's eyes, Danila was not ordinary; he was holier, purer, and more graceful than other angels. From then on, Ruslan came to the wasteland every day and quietly watched Danila from behind the tall boulders, not daring to approach. Danila didn’t notice Ruslan, enjoying the solitude and peace.
