My husband died too young, at the age of 39. I brought up and studied the children myself; did their marriages and I’ve helped with everything I could when my grandchildren were born. When my daughter gone to Spain with her family and my son moved to Sofia, I couldn’t resist – it was so hard without them. Then I realize how lonely I was. I wished to have someone close to me.
In our retirement house we are often talking about people’s fortune and how each one overcome the trials of the destiny. One day the affair of question was about the prophet Magda. Long time ago she helped to a lady from our retirement house. Then I thought: “Why couldn’t I write to her? She will tell me what await my children and me. May be she can help me to find a kindered soul, with whom I will spend the rest of my life.
So I did it. Magda answered me that I will yet experience lots of pretty moments with tall, nice men and that a traveling abroad is waiting for me. This seemed to me very incredible but after a month these things began to come true, exactly just like Magda’s prediction.
One day as I was returning from the market I met Stoycho, my husband’s colleague. He was a general accountant at their business establishment and the only one who phoned me long after my husband’s funeral. He phoned me for the holidays to greet me but then he moved to live in the country and I haven’t heard him long ago. He was very glad to see me and we drank a cup of coffee together. He told me that he is coming back to the city. He had had enough of country life; moreover he was given an offer to head the accountancy in a little company.
So Stoycho started to phone me more frequently, we met and walked together. At the end we decided to live together. Magda was right – she foretold me the happiness and peaceful old ages. I spent a week in Istanbul with my new fellow and we decided to go to the Lake Ohrid in September.
