Almost two weeks have passed since then. Time continued to flow as usual, as if wanting to erase that strange day and everything associated with it from my memory.
I tried not to think back to that encounter in the carriage, as if I myself was afraid of awakening something undesirable somewhere deep inside me.
And yet, no matter how hard I tried to convince myself that it was all just a ridiculous misunderstanding, that man's words would not leave my mind. Sometimes I really felt uneasy.
No, I couldn't say that I believed him. Of course, everything he said about Rubiella sounded like utter nonsense — a ridiculous fabrication worthy only of a madman. A girl capable of changing the world at will? Absolute nonsense.
And yet... somewhere deep in my soul, a tiny, barely noticeable uneasiness had taken root — a tiny pinch of doubt, the cause of which I myself did not know.
