He didn't think.

The moment he saw his father's men entering the library, he sprang from his seat as though the ground beneath him had caught fire.

The piece of stale bread slipped from his fingers and fell onto the pavement.

Then he ran.

He knew those narrow alleys better than he knew the palm of his own hand. He turned right, then left, before slipping into a passage barely wide enough for one person.

He didn't look back.

He didn't want to know whether they were actually chasing hi

    Adam's head lifted abruptly. For a moment, he forgot to breathe. He had never imagined hearing those words from the man who had always seemed to him as though he had been born old, without a past or any desires of his own. But his father continued in the same tone, as if recounting the story of a stranger whose life had nothing to do with him. "Then the day came when I realized that dreams are not measured by what we love, but by what we are capable of protecting." He slowly turned around, his eyes settling on his son once more. "From that day onward... I stopped searching for what I wanted and started focusing on what I had to do." Silence settled over the room again. It was a long, heavy silence, so much so that the ticking of the clock seemed to cut through the air between them. In the corner of the room, Adam's mother remained seated in the same position. She did not move. She did not intervene. But her hands, which had been resting around her teacup, slowly tightened

    Adam did not answer.He remained seated, his gaze fixed on the white envelope resting between them on the desk. It no longer seemed like a simple piece of paper carrying wonderful news. Instead, it had suddenly become a silent wall separating two different worlds. The distance between them was no more than a few dozen centimeters, yet it felt as though he would never be able to reach it. What he felt was not humiliation, nor even disappointment in the simplest sense of the word. It was something closer to a burden he had carried deep inside for years, now beginning to crack quietly. No one could hear those cracks, but they were enough to change the shape of his heart forever.His father, however, did not seem to consider the conversation over.He rested his forearms on the broad desk and calmly interlaced his fingers, a gesture familiar to everyone who had ever sat across from him. That very calmness was what exhausted people the most. No one could tell when his words would end or whe

    Adam paused for a moment.Then he looked down at the envelope in his hands.For the first time in years...He allowed himself to imagine something wonderful.Perhaps his father already knew.And perhaps...He wouldn't have to hide his dream this time.He left his room with quick steps, the smile still lingering on his face.The corridor leading to the study was long, its floor covered with dark wooden panels that reflected the light coming through the tall windows stretching along the walls.He had walked through that corridor countless times since childhood.Yet that day, it seemed different.With every step, he felt he was drawing closer to the life he had waited so long to pursue.He reached the large door.Took a deep breath.Then knocked lightly.His father's calm voice came from inside."Come in."Adam slowly opened

    Adam hadn't broken the silence since the car had left the rest stop. The road continued swallowing the distance quietly, while the tall buildings gradually disappeared behind them, replaced by vast fields and ancient trees that seemed to have witnessed lifetimes far longer than those of human beings. He rested his head against the window. The glass was cold, but something inside him felt even colder. He wasn't thinking about the town they were heading toward. Nor about the new house. Instead, his thoughts kept returning to a memory that became clearer every time he tried to bury it. ... It had happened during his final year at university. He had done everything his family expected of him without raising an objection. He had enrolled in the business administration program. Attended meetings. Lear

    "Every September?"The table was unusually messy, unlike what Adam was accustomed to.Manuscripts in different languages were piled on top of one another.Papers covered in notes.Open dictionaries.Notebooks filled with his handwriting.And numerous cups of instant coffee, some empty, while others still had a few cold drops left at the bottom.Directly beneath the desk lamp...Lay the manuscript he had been working on until the early hours of the morning.He had barely slept.He had spent the night reviewing the translation of an entire chapter, then rewriting it a second time because he hadn't been satisfied with a single sentence.He pulled out the chair and sat down.He rubbed a hand over his tired eyes.Then he glanced at the clock.A sarcastic smile appeared on his face."Three hours of sleep...""Not bad."He opened the next page of the manuscript.Picked up his pen.And the moment he began reading the first line...The world around him disappeared.He could no longer hear the

    A few months earlier... September had just begun. For most people, that month marked the approaching arrival of autumn... But for Adam... It meant something else. It meant the dream would return. Every year... Around the same time... He dreamed of the same girl. He didn't know her name. He couldn't see her features clearly. And yet, he felt as though he lived an entire lifetime with her in a single night. The dream always began in spring. A vast field where flowers swayed gently in the breeze. She would run ahead of him, laughing, then turn around to look at him, while the sunlight concealed her face. He couldn't see her features... But somehow, he felt he knew her. Then came summer. They would sit beside a peaceful lake. Fishing together. Talking about things he could never remember after waking up. But he remembered the feeling... The feeling of peace. Then autumn arrived. They would walk beneath the trees as golden leaves fell around them. She would gather
