She screams. -I don’t want to see you anymore. Never again! A monster!

      – Wait a minute. -Nicola says but Stella leaves the room and walks to the beach. Sits on the sand, stares into the waves and endless sea. Nichola comming to her:

      – Honey, let’s talk.

      – I see no sense. Everything is clear. – She responds while watching the water. Nicholas stands behind Stella and hands a hand to her right side. She looks up at him and stands up alone. – You didn’t touch me anymore!

      – I can explain. – Nicholas. Stella returns to the hotel and he walks behind her. -You were dancing with that guy and I was furious. I wanted to hurt you but I was drunk a lot and things got out of control.

      – I don’t want to hear you! -She screams.

      – She seduced me. I not made anything. – Stella turned to him face and slapped him:

      – Bastard! – Again, scream. She takes a deep breath and exhales with flashing, adds – After we get back to Belgrade I don’t want to see you anymore. You don’t exist for me.

      Again she turns his back on Nicholas and goes to the room. Stella gathers his luggage without saying a word and at 9 o’clock they head to Belgrade. After landing Stella goes home alone and closes in her room. After several days of anguish and accusations against herself and then to Nicholas she decided that there was no need to blame. What happened it happened fate. She have to go ahead just need to be more careful and everything will be all right.

      – Mom, stop. I don’t want to talk about him. – Stella.

      – That’s better, he was very irresponsible and didn’t think about the future.

      – I don’t need a man who thinks about the future. I want of someone who loves me.

      – There is no love, there is only amity and trust. It’s important to believe in the other. – Sofia.

      – You talk nonsense. No more important than love. -Stella.

      – Not so, love is created with time.

      – No! Just she exists betwin people or not. You never understood me.

      – I understand you Stella. – Adds Sofia and strokes her shoulder.

      – You never understanding me. Now you don’t understand me again. But I know you’re not to blame yourself. Do you think I don‘t know about your marriage. My grandmother has told me everything abouth settle marriage. You have never loved. -Stella looks at her mother eyes.

      – What are you talking about? – Sofia with a worried tone.

      – Why did you split up?

      – We were no longer in love and you and your brother were grown up.

      – Here is the problem. Do you hear what you say? So you’ve been together for so many years just for your kids?

      – Not so. – Continues to deny Sofia.

      – Wrong. I’m leaving. -Stella.

      – Calm down Stella. – Her mother says but Stella doesn’t hear her, for at that moment she closes the door.

      Going out of the apartment she goes to loving place park “Savi Nasip”. Sits on a bench by the river and tries to forget what happened as thoughts about the rising semester. After about an hour of thoughting she goes to her girlfriends Ina and Monica who are waiting for her at “Cuba’s” coffee. A few days later Stella start lectures at the university and began to forget what had happened. Although this part of her life is painful she will have to swallow her to move forward with a clear mind. At the end of September, she moved to a new home in the southern part of Belgrade in the Resnik district. The apartment has a small room, a living room, a kitchen and a small bathroom but for the alone woman is perfect. The main thing is that she will have the opportunity to get to know herself better and move away from her mother’s constant muttering which makes her go crazy. Like every parents who see them child to leaving the nest Sofia disagrees, but is obliged to accepting the wish of her daughter. For Stella this new change is necessary and joyfully arranges the place to its own taste. Satisfied that there is no one who to moves her stuff and to wonders constantly where are her stuff.

      Out of way

      The day is October 5, 2012, the birthday of Monica one of Stella’s best friends. Stella’s morning begins in 4:00 am. Today is Stella’s physics exam and at 8:00 o’clock she must be at the university ready for her first exam in this semester. After the morning shower and coffee chooses diligently what to wear. But she doesn’t change her shoes in hurrying. Going down to the entrance she notices that she’s with slippers. She rushes up the stairs thinking how nice it would be to have a lift in the building but there is no elevator for a four-storey building. By the time she reached the third floor she was already breathless. Unlocks and quickly takes the first shoes to the door after which goes out again. Going to the bus stop she sees that the next bus for the university is marked on the signboard after twenty-five minutes. If she had not returned to the shoes she would have caught the bus but now there is no time to blame. Decides that a taxi will be able to get in time. In the torrential rain that is pouring at the moment is difficult to catch a taxi. All the passers-by have red lights. Walking down the street sees a taxi in the other lane and decides to try to caught him. She pulls hand and the taxi stops. Running through the street she quickly folds her umbrella and climbs into the car. The near-by the university falls into a traffic jam that doesn’t see the end. Stella decides to walk and hurry as much as possible. Exits the taxi and departs on the one-way small streets, for more direct. After ten minutes she almost got to the university. When she saw him she smiley looks at her watch and understands that there are another fifteen minutes before the exam begins. Being hurried to the target she doesn’t see the dangers of approaching cars. Suddenly a green jeep passes at high speed through a deep puddle in front of it and sprays her:

      – Hey wretch! Where did you go? – Stella screamed. Furiously goes in the room for exam with wet jeans and a red leather jacket with brown spots. There are two boys standing by the door and talking. At the sight her oneof them burst into laughter:

      – Is this the new fashion? -Continuing laughing.

      – No, this is an incident.-Stella replied. After the exam she gets back and goes for a gift of Monica. The phone rings:

      – Hello, Ina!

      – Hello! I wanted to ask you something. Did you decide what you gift to Monica?

      – Not yet. When I see him, I’ll know him.

      – Super. I have no idea what to take for her. When will you shop? – Ina.

      – I’m going to the mall now.

      – Great. Can you wait me about 30 minutes? We can choose something together.

      – All right,. I’ll wait you there. Call me when you come. – Stella.

      – Great. I coming. – Ina.

      After a few hours in the mall the girls drank coffee, lunch, discussed the daily problems, the themes for the university and work. Stella has told about working as a software test specialist which began last week. Praising how despite the university they took her at half a day. They went through many themes and shops, and the two girls still didn’t like a gift for Monica. Ina proposes to look elsewhere. On exit look a jewelry store:

      – Stop! – Stella says and takes Ina’s hand.

      – What happened? – Ina asks.

      – Look. – Stella points to а gorgeous
