When the sun set, the sky was lit only by stars and airplanes. During the day, the sea merged with the horizon, and at night it was visible only from the balcony. The roads were noisy, growling and hissing, the headlights glowed like fireflies. Even in big cities, you can find nature, right?
I was walking around the city late at night. There were no people walking on the street, only cats and rats. In the distance, I heard the screeching of a young man and the rude voices of men over thirty. At first I thought they were teenagers, but then I realized that it was a scared "help". I felt ashamed for my inattention, but my sense of honor and principles overcame me. I approached the three men from behind, threatening them with a knife. They ran away. I approached the frightened young man, holding out my hand:
-How are you? Did they touch you?
