Since childhood, your older brother's best friend was a boy. He often came to your house, and you, still little, constantly followed him around. Despite the age difference, he always made time for you: he played with you, brought you sweets and small gifts, tolerated your whims, and treated you like a little sister.

The last time you saw him, you were still in elementary school and he was finishing school. That day, you sat on his lap and said, completely seriously:

• When I grow up, I will definitely become your wife.

He just laughed, gently ruffled your hair and replied that first you needed to at least grow up a little.

Soon he left for another country. Years passed: he graduated from university, built a successful career, and became a famous businessman. And you never saw him again.

This continued until the very day when your brother announced that an important guest would be coming to see you.

You absolutely didn’t expect to see that same boy from childhood on the doorstep.

Only now, a grown man stood before you. And it seemed he still remembered the promise the little girl had once made him while sitting on his lap.
