Jenny Smith excitedly stepped through the hairdresser's door. The wind made her hair uncombed for the last time, so her big green eyes and plump lips were happy in advance. She sat down to the pink chair, crossed her slim legs, was looking at her freshly manicured nails and it was also her turn with her hair, almost immediately.

\- Hello Jenny! Why are you this happy? – the similarly thin Lucy George, the hairdresser began to speak, what meant – the local girls all knew – that it was next patient's turn.

\- Hi Lucy! Please, very hurry because... There's something I haven't tell you because you would surely to fly into a tantrum about the jealousy! – Jenny stood up and sat down to the snow-white patient chair. The girls, who went there from the neighbourhood, knew the hairdresser girl's name, but she was Lucy's friend for a long time.

\- Oh my God, are you meeting with a guy?! – the blond girl laughed and started making the hairstyle they had already talked previously.

\- You stupid! – she bursted out in convulsions laughter – I'm not going that far back in the time. But only perm can help my hairstyle, so I will bring back this trend into 2031.

\- But tell me what happened and how you'll bring back that trend alone!

\- By the same thing.

They laughed.

\- And are you gonna tell it me one day? Or are you gonna tell it, when guys resurrect?

\- But surely won't you be angry?

\- I won't – almost shouted the hairdresser girl crossly.

\- Well... Tomorrow I'm going to a beauty contest as a racer!

The other one grinned.

\- So what? Don't you must blow that thing up very much? That's just gonna be municipal, isn't it?

\- No...

\- What?! What's that no?!

\- National.

\- So you have already been on a municipal one? And you didn't tell it to your best friend?!

\- You said you won't be angry!

\- You're ready. Give me the money! Bye!

\- Bye!

\- It's the next's turn!

\- Hi Lucy! – a brunette girl in a yellow dress stood up from the waiting's chair.

\- Hello! You're not going to a beauty contest as a racer, are you?

\- Why, is it a problem? – Katy Lohan answered shyly.

\- What??? Now is it real?!

\- Why, am I ugly? It's possible but nowadays the trendiest thing is if I attend that big girlish thingies, and I can't assert me, I've tried it, I need something bigger so people would accept me! – Katy's tears were flowing.

\- OK, sorry, I didn't wanna be rude, just... It's the same; I haven't even asked you what like hairstyle you would like...

\- What do you think, what like one would be fine for me? Or would anything become me at all?

\- Shut up! You're already a totally cute girl; just you've already done too much things to your hair! When did you wear it naturally for the last time?

\- I don't know...

\- Maybe the problem is that you made yourself totally plastic. What if you wore it it just let escaped? – Lucy took the rubbers and barrettes out of Katy's hair – However, it's totally fragmented...

\- I know.

\- I think in spite of fact that, war it escaped, I suggest you a shampoo, and I will give a wave till then. If it gets straight for tomorrow, come back again, or you can do it at home too. We will defeat that bitchy!

\- OK... Who are you talking about?

\- It doesn't matter; you have to win!

Jenny also returned home after the solarium, put down her ivory-colored purse, took off her light blue sandals and looked in the mirror. She was satisfied with her hair, nails and skin but she felt like she didn't have enough strength of mind to do the beauty contest over tomorrow without her friend.

She took back her sandals and purse, and set off for her. It was like the wind what hadn't made her hair uncombed yet, would urge her to go there where Lucy lived because they should make it up with each other.

During considering about what to tell her, the time went so fast that she was surprised at how fast she arrived in the little, pink house, next to the many-colored cars and houses. The house had blinding white fence what made unambiguous that the house wasn't as light as the white fence what was glittering from the sunshine, just pale pink, and it was unambiguous that it wasn't red, wasn't purple and wasn't orange but pink, because it was pale. A lot of people admired this house, but Jenny already got used to her friend's house, and now the only thing that interested her was that she should make it up with her and get ready for the beauty contest with one hundred percent. She rang, and got surprised at noticing that she was still wearing the same clothes that she worked in: the dark pink top and the purple pants what reflected her house: the dark pink didn't seem to be purple next to the purple pants. Jenny was so long mulling on their conflict that she fell like days passed since their talking at the tonsorial.

\- Hi... - Jenny began to speak when Lucy had opened the door.

\- Hi. I think you wanna make it up with me – the other girl answered objectively. Jenny didn't count on this, so she got surprised a bit at this.

\- Are you still angry with me?

Lucy turned her head away and didn't answer; she was just standing with arms folded – But can I go In? – Jenny began again.

\- Yes – Jenny founded hersel in the usual hall where was purple wallpaper with flower pattern. There were blue floor and dark brown coat racks. But she wasn't in that mood when she usually used to be when she stepped into there.

The telephone rang in Lucy's room; she hurried into it and answered. Jenny slowly followed her.

\- Hi – Lucy answered, standing in front of her magenta desk.

\- Hello! I remember that you said that my hair was ho much fragmented and which shampoo I need for that and that it need have waves until it will be like this, but what did do and what should I do so it wouldn't become like this again?

\- I think you dye your hair, don't you?

\- Yes.

\- So it's because of that. But if you've been dying it, it's gonna become more attractive after some use.

\- After how many use exactly?

\- About three or five. But the beauty contest is tomorrow, isn't it?

\- Yes, I just thought in advance.

\- If you use a more expensive dye beside to the shampoo, it will be more attractive but won't be quicklier.

\- Thanks! Bye! – Katy said.

\- My pleasure! Bye! – Lucy finished the conversation joyously, but she turned round frightened from Jenny's voice.

\- I'm not the only one who has to say sorry, I see.

\- What are you talking about?

\- I heard that you help somebody else to win the beauty contest.

\- Why, should I help one who concealed from me the contest?!

\- Just because I was afraid of you'll be jealous of me because I'm gonna enter for it! – Jenny shouted and her tears were flowing – I need you for the beauty contest; I can't go there if my best friend hates me because of this trifle, as an addition, without this good friend and good hairdresser like you are; you don't need any good hairdresser to reach a good position on the contest, but I only can prove with it indeed!

\- You're a so good friend! – Lucy was moved.

Then her mobile rang again.

\- Hello! One more thing came into my head! – it was Katy.

\- Sorry but I think you should look for another hairdresser. I'm ... very.... busy now... And if I continued helping you, I worked against my friend – Jenny turned towards.

\- So you don't answer me either that what like hair would be advantageous for me on the national contest, on the next week?

\- But the national one is on tomorrow!

\- What??? No! Tomorrow is the municipal one! That is exactly, both of them; the national one earlier, after that the municipal one, and next week, if I reach a stage when I can go to the national one.

\- So I didn't work against my friend!

\- What?!!!

\- Nothing, just I still can work for you!

\- Good; so do you tell me what like hairdo you suggest to me for the next week?

\- Sorry, but it isn't my duty. You also can decide on it, can't you?

\- So why did I ask it?! And why did you help me till now?

\- My friend concealed from me that she was on the municipal beauty contest as a racer, and today she told me that she's gonna go to the national one tomorrow, and I wanted to work against her – she looked at Jenny – but I know now how good friend is she in spite of fact that.

\- So is it also a big request, to answer my question?

\- In the end, when your hair won't be fragmented, you can show with any hairstyle what you like and what fits to your style.

\- But I think don't every hairstyle would be advantageous for me.

\- So try some hairstyles at home and look for what ones are advantageous for you or come to me and I will do it for you.

\- OK. Bye!

\- Bye!

\- Now why did you backbite me to this stranger girl?! I've already said that I only concealed it for our friendship!

\- Sorry, but she enquired me so much that this was necessary to shake her off! Now will we have a quarrel again?

\- Why didn't you lie?!

\- If you really did it because of our friendship, why are you ashamed of doing that?!

\- You didn't say her that I did it because of our friendship!

\- But I told her how good friend you are.

\- OK, I forgive you; I will need you very much tomorrow.

\- You're only my friend to I help you?! – Lucy was indignant.

\- No. I'm so proud of I have this super friend who's not only beautiful but is such a good hairdresser too!

\- Tanks! – Lucy laughed joyously – I'll do such a hairstyle for you that you'll surely finish between in the first ones!

\- Isn't perm enough?

\- It's still possible to do it with it even more too. Come to me tomorrow, I'll do it then!

\- OK? I'm leaving now; I also should be getting ready a bit for the beauty contest.

\- Hi! – Jenny left Lucy's house joyously and satisfied, in good mood as she usually did.

She succeeded in making peace with her friend and was going to the national beauty contest tomorrow! – she thought.

She was joyously looking around on the street on the way. She then only noticed that the houses, cars, flowers, grass, trees and the sky had how blooming colored in the sunshine. What's more, it was like she saw a man approaching from the distance - but it was surely just the mirage what made a girl that odd, and Jenny was so happy then that she saw this good thing – she thought.

Next morning, at ten, Katy stepped out from her light orange house and set off for the solarium. The beauty contest was going to start at two in the afternoon, anyway. She went by taxi for two streets, then saved her rest of money, and walked further on foot. It's so funny – she thought – a desolate place is nearest where there is a solarium, from the other deserted place! She looked around how she usually did when she came here to see that if a building was under construction or not, and she saw wonderingly. Then she almost fainted.

No, surely some girls were joking with her! – she thought - But that man's everything was so manly; surly anybody didn't get up a mask and any man clothes!

She was standing in one place almost in a shock, for seconds that seemed to be hours.

\- Hello. Is the world this deserted since that crazy woman tried to wipe us out? – the man began to speak – You're surprised to see a man I see – he smiled. It was like this voice, this move, this look and this smile resembled somebody. Somebody famous man from that age when men still existed.

\- This is... a deserted place exceptionally... Oh my God, I'm talking to a man! – Katy laughed.

\- Haven't you ever met with any men? I know from the TV that a crazy woman tried to annihilate us, but there were so many victim of the poison?

\- I've never seen any guys in live! Moreover, hw believed there aren't any of them! How did you stay alive?!

\- I'm curious to know it, too.

\- Why haven't you met with anybody till now?! I mean, after dropping the poison down. Surely would know it already all the world! Do you live in hiding because you're famous? You very much resemble a movie star!

\- I woke up a few days ago. I know that this is very odd but my last memory is that I had to lie in some ice for some seconds on filming. That stupid director thought the glass wouldn't be lifelike enough. Other actors gave some chemical agent for the glass that worked by chance in reality, and they really hibernated me. Other actors also had to do it, but when I woke up, I couldn't wake tem up. The ice already almost totally melted from them but they didn't have breathing, heartbeat and pulse either.

\- So it seems like I'm who the first one in the world who speaks to the only man all over the world! When I tell it to a lot of TV's, I'll be almost as famous as you are! Is that true that you're a world-famous actor? What's your most famous movie or series where I could see you in? What's your name at all? Sorry if I'm speaking extraordinarily but I've never met with any world star, let alone a man!

\- I'm Laurence Fishburne; you've been able to see me in The Matrix or SCI, these are my most famous movie and series.

\- I'm Katy. CSI is still or again on TV and I've seen some episodes of it and when I was a little girl, I've seen The Matrix or it's third part! – the girl exulted– The Matrix was such an exciting movie but crimes don't really hold my attention.

\- I didn't see any parts of CSI before I got a role in it, in turn it had already been for nine years on TV, but I watched some parts of it before filming. The Matrix was a really exciting movie but I didn't have enough time to give some thought to that how I liked it, because we had to learn kung fu so much. It's odd that the first part were already twelve years old when they frosted me, and I slept over twelve years.

\- Did you dream about anything? – Katy asked with curious eyes.

\- The ice frosts also the brain, so it was like I was dead.

\- Where were you for days after you woke up?

\- I got to know from the TV that's in the caravan where are the filming accessories that what happened to the world. I saw that everybody disappeared from the location so I watched TV to maybe I will get to know from it what happened. Suddenly, somebody mentioned that "since men died out" and "because women who older than thirty already don't live", I was almost in shock for some days, and didn't leave the caravan. When I haven't been frostedy yet, I had a wife, a son, a mother, a father, some friends, some kindred. And a daughter... I think my younger daughter is still alive if any accident or deadly illness hasn't hit her.

\- Well, I understand it... But I don't understand why you mentioned your older daughter that way.

\- People already don't remember this scandal at least in this world. You're better to not know that because people would speak about it again. It's already also a problem that I said the word "scandal".

\- Sorry for hindering you for this long time; you're surely looking forward to see your other daughter and I think you have to tell this all twice if not more times. And I promise you I won't mention the scandal to anybody.

\- Actually, it seems like I met with Delilah nowadays, like this twenty years difference didn't exist. I also got to know from the TV that it's already 2031. This all thing is like I was a main character in a movie but this is the reality and this conversation makes me feel that it's really happening because it's like an interview was made with me again – he sminled.

\- I'll tell this all thing instead of you if you wanna me to do it; I wanna be famous anyway. And I will help you to find Delilah, you're surely curious what like girl she became in her twenties – she gave him her phone number – I have to go now because I'm applying on a beauty contest today. Watch it on the city channel and vote on me! Bye! – Katy hurried into the solarium and she already called the news programs of TV channels what's number she searched on her mobile, on the internet, on the way. For the first time, of course they didn't believe her but she promised them that she will sattle that they will meet with the man, and the TV channels admitted it.

Laurence went back in the caravan, and was watching TV because he was curious that what like the world became. He didn't go out to the street anymore because he knew that he was the only man in the world, and girls would harrass him if he met with further ones.

What a good timing: he hadn't eaten anything for days because of the nervous depression, and then he could lose some weight for the time he will be an even greater star than before he was frosted – he thought. He put on some kilos at that time.

He got to know it wonderingly that people didn't invent anything in the last twenty years. But later it came into his head that already only girls lived in the world, and the inventors were usually men and older than people who lived today. After he got bored with watching TV, he was considering about what he will tell Delilah after the past decades and why he was that man who stayed alive, other men why didn't, why only that girls live in the world who were younger than thirty, older women why didn't, and while he was considering, fell asleep, by no means he couldn't sleep for days after lying unconscious in the ice for twenty years and since he got to know what things happened twenty years ago.

On the beauty contest, Katy was shining with her tanned skin and beautifully waved hair and was beaming with joy because she was going to be a star, and all of that helped her to finish third. That thing didn't dreve her into a frenzy either that most of the onlookers were lesbian.

When Laurence gets to know it, she will be the first girl on the world for twenty years who is with a man! Then her boyfriend will be the most famous one person the world!

Jenny was anxious on the beauty contest but Lucy was sitting in the first row of the onlookers and rooting for her. She made her a beautiful bun on that day, before the contest, and let a curl down on each side. Jenny wore a light blue, long evening dress without straps and a pink bikini. She reached rank second. The two friends discussed it with each other that they will organize a party to celebrate this success, but they didn't have any strength for it because they celebrated the winner till dawn, so they only had a shower and went to sleep.

The municipal beauty contest finished at eight in the evening, with celebrating the winner. Katy decided not to celebrete that she ranked third, not to let it slip during the party that who she met with today, before the beauty contest, and that her position could help her to make a relationship with him. She was so happy by this, that it was always in her mind that how famous she will be. She almost couldn't speak anything else but only about that and alcohol would get it out of her that she met with Laurence. The right thing to do was to drink some alcohol when they celebrated somebody; also when she was the person feted; she was happy in vain without drink too.

Instead of organizing the party, she called Laurence, whose number she found in her mobile, between her missed calls. They ararnged that they will meet tomorrow, where they met for the first time, and they will go to Katy's house, where Laurence can search Delilah on some community places on the net if she's there on one of them. If not, she will ask her friend if they know a twenty-four-year-old, Afro-American girl with that name, if not, she will ask their to ask their friends, and so on. After that, in the afternoon, people were going to wait for them to the TV studio. Any reporter weren't willing to go there, it was easily possible that Katy lied, and they could unnecessarily spend their money for travelling.

The girl also told him of course that she ranked third on the beauty contest, maybe the man didn't watched it over.

They met at half past nine on the morning how they discussed it. Katy wore a pink top with straps and a low-cut neckline and the top only reached till her belly. Her skirt was short and she was wore a white sandals with tall heels and a circle-earring. On her face there was beautifully used makeup and her hair was in a ponytail, put on the side. She already wanted to start the temptation with this clothes, with the sexy necklace, with her beautiful make-up, with her pretty hairstyle and that earring which was advantageous for her. The tall heel was also useful for a girl who wanted to be that tall man's girlfriend like he was. And, of course, it wasn't by chance that she invited him into her house, however, it was almost impossible to solve the searching on the internet because she didn't want Laurence to meet with any other girls before he stands before a TV camera.

Laurence wore a yellow T-shirt with white pants what stressed his brown skin. Katy just noticed now that maybe he looked great too. Lucky that the ice didn't let him get older because it would be hard to persuade herself to a bodily contact with an old man.

\- Hello! – Katy was approaching, putting her well-shaped legs before each other and her hips were moving by it to the right and left.

\- Hi.

\- You're lookig well in these clothes. Where are they from?

\- Fortunetely we brought a lot of clothes for the filming. Can we be going?

\- Yeah – they set off; Katy continued walking like a model.

\- How far do you live?

\- It's fifteen minutes by taxi but if we go on foot, we're gonna go on that way where we won't meet with any girls so they won't harrass you.

\- So we're forced to go on foot.

\- When you still had friends, did you talk to strangers too?

\- When they congratulated me, I said thanks, but not really in other situations.

\- So I'm so lucky now!

\- I have some questions, too. I watched it on TV yesterday what like the world became, and I saw that it hasn't changed anything about inventions. But who does man works? And how do you girls multiply?

\- Girls don't really invent anything but men, and also, older men of them.

\- It came into my head, too.

\- But humanity's survive is so important that we had do invent something for that, so academic's joined forces, and the artificial multiplier machine was invented some years later. I don't know how it works; I'm not academic. But everybody has to work if she's at least eighteen years old, if she goes to school, and also if she doesn't, so guy works can get girls, too. It's easier to be admitted to these works so some ones also do these, and of course, they get pay for that.

\- And why do only girls live who aren't thirty years old yet?

\- Who has already got used to the with men very much, they were older than twenty-nine and some girls in their twenties, and they couldn't imagine life without men and couldn't absorb it, so they committed suicide.

\- How many people in their twenties? – they had arrived. That thing came to the man's head that maybe this was that place where he will know if his daughter was alive at all.

\- A lot of them, more than half of them, but girls who are in their twenties now, they already got used to life without men.

\- It's logical in the end – Laurence felt like he took his frightening with his shoes together, in the pink hall. Katy buckled her sandals off, and took it beside Laurence's shoes.

\- Do you still wanna know immediately where your daughter is?

\- I came here to get to know it.

\- Well, it's OK – they went into the room that was equipped with almost lighting green furniture and with light purple carpet and a yellow curtain. Katy turned on the computer – Do you know any community places on the net? I think you haven't put yourself on any of them because people would constantly write to you.

\- But I've heard their names. The question is if you girls use those ones that people used twenty years ago.

\- So I will open these ones what we use. Search for Delilah while I'm getting changed to set off. Call me if you found her! – the girl took her most beautiful lingerie out of her wardrobe and took it out from the room that way that Laurence couldn't see them. In the bathroom, she stripped and took on her other bra and panties. She had seen it in movies how women used to tempt men.

She was considering a bit about what to tell and do when she goes in the room, than Laurence already called her that he found Delilah. Katy went back into the room; Laurence hadn't even looked at her.

\- I haven't found her on any community places yet but I noticed between the news that she won the national beauty contest. She inherited her mother's beauty – Katy become uncertain. He still wants his wife? – She still lives there, in that house where we she had been live then.

\- It's such a good thing. We still have a lot of time before start – she stroked over the man's muscular arm. Laurence only looked at her then, and noticed what she was wearing.

\- What are you doing little girl?!

\- We met so well, didn't we?

\- I could be your father and I don't even know you!

\- I'm already a big girl. I'm already nineteen years old – she began fondling Laurence's thigh, but he shoved her hand from it and stood up from the chair.

\- My other daughter was also nineteen when they frosted me! What do you wanna from me?!

\- I thought if I'm with the only man in the world who's a world-famous actor, as an addition...

\- You're just like my older daughter! – the man left the house angrily and as quick as lighting.

Katy was standing paralyzed almost for a minute, then took her clothes on and called Laurence, thinking he had calmed down yet.

\- Hello!

\- It's a shame that I deleted you; I wouldn't answer if I would know that you were who rang me. I would know that you won't get off me because you need me to become a star in front of the TV cameras. At the end, people would believe that you're not a bitch who could makes a relationship of convenience but that you're a girl who has lied once.

Katy couldn't even begin to speak between Laurence's sentences, but she couldn't say anything, anyway – When we meet in the show, I will tell what a big bitch you are, and it will remain to be seen that how much you'll enjoy your fame.

\- Isn't there any else solution? Anyway, I helped you to find Delilah without you would meet with anybody.

\- It was also your interest because you didn't wanna anybody to else to stand in front of the TV camera that she met with me for the first time after twenty years. You will get that you wanted; you will be famous by me.

\- Couldn't I rather pay you so you wouldn't don't tell it?

\- I remind you little girl that I'm a world-famous actor. You can't give me so much money what by I would forget that what a big bitch wanted to exploit me.

\- So why will you tell it in the show to a lot of people?! And how did your money endure?!

\- Anybody hasn't been in the neighborhood of the filming location for twenty years ago, otherwise they would melt us. Our money we brought for the time of being there, are still in the caravan, with my credit card where most of my money is, and also, I'm the only one who can take the rest of my money out of the bank. Also the house where Delilah lives, is on my name, at least it will be my property when it turns out that I'm alive.

\- Instead of you wanna take vengeance; you could be happy about that such a young girl wanted to be with you like me! You surely wanna people to know it because of that!

\- I think a lot of teenage girls dream about me as about every or almost every star, but you would wanna be with me even also that way that almost my look is the only thing that you know about me and you're not my fan. Don't everybody wanna be with somebody who doesn't like her or him at least a bit by his or her look. However such people like you maybe do it and they merit to someone ready her a lesson. Well, do you still wanna be famous if people know you as a bitch?

Katy became uncertain, mostly by this question. She was considering for some seconds about what to say. She had to answer now, before they will miss time to arrive in the studio.

\- Yes... But I will explain it away that, I will tell that I have never done anything like that!

\- On the planet of girls? It's no wonder.

\- But there are also some lesbians, and I haven't done any favors like that either.

\- The question is if they believe you or not.

\- And you?!

\- Why would I say anything like that about anybody, without any reason?

The girl was silent for further seconds.

\- OK, just let's hurry!

\- We'll meet in the studio, bitch – the man turned the phone off.

##  _3_

Katy went to the studio by taxi; her thoughts were whirling in her head during it. She was desperate for some minutes because of what people will think about her that what a bitch she was. She so much wanted to say to them that Laurence's older daughter had some scandal! In all probability, it was something like she tried to do with Laurence because he said she is just like her. But if she tells it, he takes vengeance because of it too. She thought she rather should say good things about him so he wouldn't tell them that she would sleep with him to make a relationship together, to be famous. In any case, she realized by their talking what an intelligent man he is. She started to like him even if she didn't like his look much more than an average-looking man.

During the last some minutes, she was excited because she was going to appear on TV and because how famous she will be when she tells what happened to her yesterday.

She arrived in front of a beautiful, big, white building and it took a lot of time for her to find that on which floor she had to leave the elevator and which door she had to go through.

Laurence was also going by taxi, in any case, the taxi driver was the only one who saw him during it and people didn't let whoever in where he went to. The twenty-one-year-old taxi driver girl, of course, hardly could be concentrating on driving because she met with a man after twenty years and till then, she hadn't known yet that any man was alive, as anybody hadn't known it yet; only Katy had. As an extra, Laurence is a world-famous movie star! She was looking forward to tell it to her friends.

When they had arrived, she asked for an autograph, he signed it, than hurried in the studio to girls don't hinder him with their questioning and with blocking his way.

Laurence and Katy didn't even speak to each other before the show. Of course, when they first appear on TV, they were on a serious, important news-telling TV show where the anchors talked with people. The studio had beautiful shades of blue what was serious, and, at the same time, a bit womanly.

They answered to the blond, long-haired anchor jointly, by turns, they told what Laurence already told Katy before. The man said to also to watch another show of this TV channel because he had something exciting to say too. Katy calmed down because he still haden't humiliate her. The anchor talked it off on the phone, still in the show with the leather of the national research institute to ask for help of the research institutes of as many countries as they can search for the woman's laboratory who dropped the bomb down what she made from the poison, and they had to get to know why Laurence stayed alive.

While going back, Katy was considering about Laurence why didn't told in this show that she wanted to use the man. While going back, Katy was considering about Laurence why didn't told in this show that she wanted to use the man. In the end, it came into her head that he wanted to make her nervous for long time while she was waiting that he tells it and that it didn't fit in the topic and isn't so serious topic what fit in this show. But the next show was going to be tomorrow, and she thought it would be better not even performing in it. But the next show was going to be tomorrow, and she thought she would be better not even performing in it. She will explain something away in other shows, but it wasn't to her liking to perform in a show while somebody is humiliating her in it.

Laurence was also going back by taxi, at least the taxi driver was the only one who could be nagging him by showing her wondering and cheerfulness and by her questioning.

For a while, when he was busy performing in shows, he hadn't met with Delilah; he was rather going to meet with her when he will have more time to do it.

The caravan was fixture with everything what's necessary in a flat; in fact, it was on a desolate place. That thing that he already knew where her daughter lived, gave him appetite for the evening. He ordered the dinner there so only the girl would be he was meeting with, then too. He already didn't tell her what things happened to him after woke up and that he still doesn't know why he stayed alive. He told her that he didn't eat anything for days so stay him alone and she will get to know everything from the shows. He made her promise for an autograph so she wouldn't tell anybody where he stayed nowadays. He decided to eat less times to meet with less girls who he had to make promise him that they won't speak and he had to shake them off. He could order several helpings and portions for one time and put some of them in the fridge later but he became a really big star now, so he should lose some weight in spite of the fact that he is middle-aged. What's more, he would be an old man about time, after years while he was frosted, but technically and apparently he wasn't be even fifty as before.

Next day he gave more money to the food courier than she needed to buy a car, to buy one and take it there. After that, he didn't have to listen to he how much surprised the taxi drivers were to see him and he didn't have to answer them anymore. He asked for and got a dark blue Open and there seemed on every part of it that it was total new.

He wasn't having lunch because the travelling to the studio, being there, and travelling back took engrossed his time. He should lose some weight anyway, and he wasn't a hungry because of this because he never ate much at lunch. And the most important thing was that he hadn't have to meet with any courier girls so many times. Mainly since that courier girl who he've with met the last time, also tried to make passes at him. However, after he told her that he was still mourning her wife so he couldn't make any relationship with anybody, she let him alone. But maybe she just let him alone for a while. And he already didn't even locate about anybody that if she was beautiful, if he liked her move and personality as a woman. He couldn't even feel anything about anybody at all.

The next studio was much more youthful: the room's mostly was decorated with different shades of pink. The anchor was blond also in this show, but her style was like a teenager's. They began a loosely talk about how strange thing it could be for Laurence to wake up after twenty years and they were giggling on it. Laurence mockingly expounded what Katy's plan was with him. They also talked about he already had a new car so he didn't have to shake taxi driver girls off at last.

He already went there and back with his new car, but the courier girl who carried the dinner, was worth as much as two-three taxi driver girls: she also wanted to make passes him! And, after that, girls continuously tried to approach him, anywhere he went, when he got out of the car; but not just courier girls, but in large numbers. However, it wasn't surprising in a world where he was the only man after twenty years. In a world, where only teen girls lived and in their twenties, everybody wanted to be a middle-aged man's girlfriend because he was the only one, except the lesbians. But it wasn't sure because didn't every girl try to make passes at him in the end. Or not yet. And he didn't want any man-woman relationship with them. He didn't know either why but he felt it wasn't the only reason that he was mourning her wife, of he didn't want to date anybody either. But he still missed her, also as a woman. They were married for almost nine years when he was frosted, and she also committed suicide after a while, with the other women who were older than twenty-nine, because she believed he also died, because of this damned, particular director. He also was a man so Laurence could at most scold his memory. If he wouldn't persist to use real ice, he wouldn't be frosted, so could go home to her wife, and her daughter didn't miss them for twenty years! What's more, if he wouldn't be frosted, didn't commit suicide very woman, who were at least thirty! Or maybe he wouldn't be enough alone against the suicide because of the men lack. But maybe would be less, maybe much less suicide. He spoke also about that in an interview next day.

Katy rather went to the other shows without Laurence so the man couldn't say anything to her protecting herself about she only wanted to be with him to be famous. And they didn't even want to talk to each other. They fought against each other by debates in every show, without the other one, about is the girl really that big bitch. Katy more and more wanted to deploy that she tell that Laurence's daughter also had a similar scandal, but she was afraid of the man's reaction. But she invented another revenge up against Laurence.

She decided to already then begin to try which hairstyle she should have on the national beauty contest what was going to be next week. She walked in Lucy's hairdressing salon, and while sitting on the waiter's chair, was considering about what to say and how to say it.

\- It's the next one's turn – she heard Lucy's voice. They said hello each other, Katy sat down to the other chair.

\- I thought we could begin trying some hairstyles for the national beauty contest for next week.

\- Why? You have so many ideas? – Lucy was surprised at it – And do you have enough money to my doing all of them? – Katy only thought about that now. She became vague, was considering a bit, and a soluciton came into her head.

\- Ok, make only one. But don't you tell me what would be surely advantageous for me?

\- Well... your face is thin so I think you would be pretty with backcombed hair.

\- So rather make it and... Nothing else is necessary, is it?

\- At least one rubber or one-two small barrette but let most of your hair out.

\- OK, do it! – Katy said excitedly. Lucy thought that's because of the hairstyle.

\- OK, I'm beginning it. But during it, I can tell you at last that I've seen you on TV, and I was total surprised at it! You talked about you met with a guy! A girl met with him for the first time after twenty years who I've met with and who I've talked on the phone several times! And I've seen in shows that a man really does alive!

\- Yeah... I'm already over on it. Have you heard about my scandal?

\- Of course... You and that movie star always talk about that in the show. What an exciting it is taht exactly a celebrity stayed alive! I remember I've seen him in The Matrix 2 and in 21!

\- It's not necessary to change subject. I would like to ask you something exactly about this subject to help me to take vengeance on him.

\- It's so excited, I'm gonna take part in a media story!

\- But there's a problem... Laurence can't get to know that I got his daughter to move house so he would't find her.

\- Isn't it a too big punishment?

\- Certainly not! He was sleeping for twenty years like it didn't passed; he only got to know from TV how much time passed! But it can be irritating that he wake up from the ice at last, his daughter lived without him for 20 years, he believes it's still true that he read about her on the net that she still lives there where he lived with her wife and with her! He believes he can meet with her at last but it's not so easy!

\- There can be a very big thirst for revenge in you if you can speak so much about it.

\- Well, yeah, and it seems I picked his total long composition manner up because I always watch on TV his answers to me.

\- Perhaps because of the interviews.

\- Well, do you know a twenty-four-year-old, black girl whose name is Delilah? I think not, so could you ask your friends about if they know her, if not, they ask also their friends and so on?

\- How wouldn't I know her?! We were celebrating her all night when she won the national beauty contest!

\- Super, so I can much sooner accomplish my goal!

\- You say she is this actor's daughter?! Oh my God, it came into my head just now that her last name reminded me of a star! Exactly of that man's last name!

\- How much do you know Delilah?

\- We only celebrated her because the right thing to do is to do it.

\- Did you talk to her?

\- Very little, but my best friend comparatively much.

\- So you have to get her to invite her somewhere where you're also gonna be, you have to make friends with her and suggest her to move somewhere where it's hard to find her because now, when she is the daughter of the most famous man in the world, people will harrass her. And get her to delete her address from the net.

\- And why should I do it for you?

\- I'll pay you for it if it's necessary.

\- How much?

Katy was considering.

\- For example, that price what's the cost of making a festive bun.

\- OK.

\- Do you have time to do it today?

\- Yeah! – both of them were happy. Lucy was happy about the money and Katy was happy about her revenge was going to come true – And when do I get the money?

\- Get the girl to write to her profile that she moved house so the new tenants wouldn't complain about people harass them. I'll give you the money that day when I see that she wrote it on her profile.

\- Super!

Lucy was still working till six in the evening, and then went to Jenny's place who lived in a middle-sized, white block what was in the environment of similar blocks. She went up to the fourth floor by elevator and rang. Delilah answered the door! Lucy was surprised at it and was happy too. She got on a step in Katy's plan without doing anything!

Delilah had long, black, thick hair, round face, brown eyes and a bit thin built. She was wearing a white dress with straps.

\- Hello! I'm Lucy, Jenny's friend.

\- Hello! Do you come in?

\- Yeah.

Lucy arrived with Delilah at the bright blue hall.

\- Hi! – Lucy said first.

\- Hi! What do you say to that who my new friend is?

\- Wow! I'm in one house with the national beauty queen! By the way, we've talked some words at the party after the beauty contest, but I think a lot of people tried to talki with you so you don't remember me. What's more, surely many people stop you on the street because you are the daughter of the world's most famous man! It seems I speak much when I'm very excited! – Lucy laughed and Delilah smiled.

\- Aren't we going into the living room? – Jenny began to speak, and they went into the living-room by mutual consent because there was bigger space for three people. Then that came into Lucy's head that she already won't be Jenny's best friend. They may meet sometimes because of that much time what they had been friends but the daughter of the world's most famous man, who was a national beauty queen, as an addition, a lot trendier than a nice and talented hairdresser girl. But if she can be Delilah's good friend enough, they meet sometimes the three of them, so Jenny still will be her friend, as an addition, se will be a friend of one of the world's trendiest girls!

The living room  contained golden and orange colors; it was possible to as well think about that it's a rich girl's living-room, because it was such a beautifully furnished. Jenny and Delilah sat to the sofa so Lucy just could sit to the armchair to comfortably find room, so she sat there.

\- How did you two become this good friends? I mean how could a super girl accept to be friends with an average girl? I mean, Jenny is also very trendy and pretty but the other one won a national beauty contest and her father is a movie star, who, as an addition, is the only man on the world! Delilah, surely everybody wanna be your friend and you chosen exactly my friend! Jenny, what's your secret?

The two other girls laughed at Jenny was how talkative then.

\- I don't know, it seems like I'm good at making friends too – Jenny laughed.

\- Lucy, you can speak so much like my daddy on interviews! – Delilah began to speak – Don't you wanna to be a star?

\- Who doesn't wanna be a star?! That's almost every girl's dream but speaking much doesn't mean I'm suitable for that – Lucy answered, smiling.

\- I don't know your talent but it also matters a lot that people don't have to draw the words out of you.

\- It's good that I exactly chatter so much when I'm excited!

They laughed.

Then, when they were talking about stardom, anyway, it was true enough that they haden't talk a lot to each other, but Lucy thought the time was suitable to talk about Delilah's moving, anyway, she felt like they were already good friends enough – Delilah, now, since we're talking about stardom, it came into my head that now, when you're so famous and successful, you surely live in a total hidden place or you're gonna move to a place like that, aren't you?

\- I still live where I lived when I was born; it's also on a hidden place a bit because my parent's were already world-famous actors then. I start to experience that girl's don't let me alone so maybe I'm gonna move to an even more desolate place soon.

\- You were already alive when your mom died. Don't you miss her?

\- I was only four then so I didn't live with my parents for long but my step mother lied to me that they only went to a travel so I total broke down when I got to know that they didn't. But I already understand that I was still too young to endure this big tragedy.

\- Isn't it bad that this house makes you remember your parents?

\- I'm already past that for a long time. I already got to know the truth when I was ten years old. I mean, about my dad, that "truth" what people believed then.

\- So you probably don't move?

\- If this stalking continues, I'm gonna move.

\- I know a total good place. It's not too far from here but it's a total deserted place. You go to the two right streets from here, then you turn to the left at the store, and keep straight on three streets – Lucy looked for it on purpose.

\- Thanks, I'll look at it if I move.

\- I've finished preparing the dinner – Jenny stepped into the living-room. Lucy and Delilah almost didn't even notice that she went to prepare dinner – Coll it, it's also for the beauty queens because it's almost all salad! – Jenny gave the transparent, patterned glass bowls where she served the salad in, to the two girls and sat back to the sofa with her own helping – We can stay here because it doesn't make any trace on anything.

\- It's total delicious! – Lucy praised her.

\- Thanks! – Jenny smiled proudly.

\- What's it made of? – Delilah asked.

\- Beside the lettuce the corn, the cucumber, the carrot and the radish, only a pinch of salt gives the taste to it. The reason why it was long to prepare it, was because I had to cut it up, and I should take care of my work-nails. Doesn't everybody have so beautiful original nails like you have – Jenny answered.

\- My daddy also badly needs that diet grub like this. However, nowadays, when I've seen him in the recent shows, it seems like he lost some weight, didn't even a bit...

\- Don't you wanna meet with him? – Jenny asked.

Lucy swallowed the food aside and began coughing.

\- Cool it, I didn't mean she should be her own father's girlfriend! – Jenny laughed, then Delilah also, and Lucy tried to imitate them in it.

\- I would like but I don't know how I could find him. He surely lives in a total desolate place nowadays. I think he is gonna look after me or has already started to search me.

\- So you're better not to move yet to such a place where he can find you harder – Jenny said. Lucy felt she must shout.

\- Maybe I'm better to employ some bodyguards till then – Delilah considered – I'm better to go now because it's not a good idea for me nowadays to walk in the dark.

\- Lucy, won't we accompany her?

\- Let's go! – Lucy answered quickly.

\- Thanks! It's beganning to get dark and I feel me in bigger safety with you girls – they took her sandalss on and set off.

\- Who knows, maybe some bitchies would be quite capable of killing you by jealousy! – Jenny said.

\- Yeah. That little bitch was also jealous of celebrities who appear on TV because she is who's met with daddy for the first time after twenty years and she tried to seduce him to be famous. She total reminds me of my half-sister.

\- Why, what did she do?

\- I rather won't even tell it to you two. The scandal would break out again in the end. I got to know it from the net, when I was thirteen years old, when I wanted to know my dad some more. I wrote his name in the searcher, and a lot of articles wrote about it.

\- What a good thing this is that you can get to know so many things from the internet! Our parents are at most on community sites and it's hard to search them because nobody remembers their name anymore! – Lucy spoke.

\- You already have spoken about that scandal a lot so you could tell it us, we won't tell it to anybody, anyway! Am I right, Lucy?

\- Yeah.

\- In the end, a lot of people look after my dad's name and they will know it, anyway... - she sighed – Montana, my older sister wanted to be an actress in the beginning, but our common dad thought it would need too much work. She used to keep her plan in secret, then, suddenly, exactly on daddy's birthday, it came out that she published a porn film about herself. Before that, she didn't dare to tell it to her parents so they wouldn't talk her out of it. Daddy total snapped, disowned Montana, he said he wasn't gonna talk to her till she would change her life, and he tried to buy every DVD of Montana but they already sold them. In the beginning, Montana used her own name so she took daddy into shame with this, allegedly any porn star doesn't use her real name. This is what my half-sister became, only to be famous.

\- That's vulgar – Jenny said - I'd rather stay to be unknown than to systemically sleep with different people in every occasion or almost every occasion, sometimes almost with several people, in fact because of that reason that isn't vital, and also, everyone can watch it if they spend money for it!

\- I think most people are like you about it – Lucy spoke.

\- It's unbelievable soal to me what a bitch my half-sister was, but these qualities aren't hereditary.

\- Maybe she was a friend of bitchies – Lucy said.

\- I don't know but my dad surely didn't bring her up badly. On the net, there isn't anything that seems to indicate that he would set such an example like what Montana did! And if people could see about him something like this or if he would only bring her up in a similar deal, he didn't disown her because she became anything like this. And if he was similar to her, he wouldn't reject this other bitch!

\- You're right – Jenny said.

\- Yes – Lucy agreed.

\- And now, let's stop this subject! I don't even wanna talk about this.

\- OK. So what to do? Or how many time do we have till arriving? – Jenny sked.

\- Ten minutes – Delilah answered. She was almost lighting in her white dress because it had got dark yet.

- Your dress is super, Delilah! It stresses your skin's nice brown colour – Lucy began to speak.

\- Thanks! – Delilah said, almost laughing.

\- Will we go shopping together? A national beauty queen's advice would be super about what clothes to buy! – Jenny spoke.

\- OK – Delilah smiled – We'll arrange it on the phone when and where to go, but we already arrived now.

\- I could think that you have so beautiful house like this – Jenny looked at the white building what had several floors and a dark, comprehensibly tall fence surrounded it.

\- And a lion statue is also next to the gate! – Lucy wondered.

\- Yeah, it's my daddy's horoscope; it's here already for twenty years. Well, I'm going; bye! – Delilah said.

\- Bye! – the other two girls said with each other. They also took leave of each other because they lived in different deals.

Lucy was walking in the dark alone, considering about if they went in the same deal for a while, about if Jenny invented any objection or not, about if she was going in another deal. Maybe she wanted to shake Lucy off to have as much time as it was possible to spend it with Delilah, not to lose her as a friend. That way, when they were together today, maybe it bothered her that she also had to care about her, not only about Delilah. And she couldn't even get her yet to move! Or maybe she could... But she didn't tell her to write to her profile that she had moved! But if Jenny will be Delilah's better friend than now, she can break their friendship with Lucy because she can lose Delilah because of her, because can change for from Jenny to Lucy! But it's also possible that Delilah will interconnect them if she will be a friend both of them, but she couldn't to be her better friend than Jenny, who Lucy could lose because of this. She has decided: she will ask Katy for a bit more time to persuade Delilah to move and write it to her profile, and tries to be in a better friendship with her, but at most like Jenny.

More and more girls harassed Laurence to be his girlfriend but he rejected all of them. He decided to appear in the last show and to stop this childish debate; anyway, people can know that Laurence was who was right.

When he arrived at the studio and got out of his car, a lot of girls tried to flirt with him again, but he already didn't even talk to them, went into the building again like they weren't even there.

A long, black-headed anchor was talking with him about how he spent his days nowadays, like it was in some recent show, by curiosity, but this time the show didn't continue the way it usually did. The anchor said she had heard that researchers found the lab of the woman who dropped the poison-bomb, and they connected the research institute's leader.

\- Hi Nicky – the anchor said.

\- Hi Vicky! – the researcher girl began to speak.

\- We already have talked to each other, do you remember?

\- Yeas, I said that we found the lab.

\- Where does the research have got?

\- We got the result today.

\- Do you know why Laurence Fishburne is that man who stayed alive?

\- We examined the matter what that woman dropped down and it came out that testosterone is what it attacks at first, then the important organs around them. There used to be so much man hormone in Laurence Fishburne, and so thick because of this, that the poison didn't really go through the hormones; it only killed some of these. There isn't any other explanation to this. It's so clearly showed in the chemical agent that it isn't even necessary to examine him.

\- It's amazing... So the reason why he is the man who stayed alive is because he's manlier than the other men?

\- Yes. In the end, it seems in his look too – it was audible in Nicky's voice that she smiled – And that's even more amazing that these hormones gradually will be reproduced by the effect of love.

\- It's such amazing and romantic! Thanks!

-Bye!

-Bye!

\- What do you think about you were the manliest man in the world and almost everybody has wanted you also now because you are the only man in the world, but now it came out that you're also used to be manlier than anybody was twenty years ago?

Laurence was only listening to the research's result wonderingly, and that things came into his head one after the other, that what things he used to solve manlier before than now, after twenty years, and now he couldn't feel drawn to anybody at all, also because of this.

\- I can't say anything about it. It only came into my head now that I really used to conduct me manlier than in the recent days, after I had woke up from the ice.

\- In what things did you conduct yourself manlier?

\- For example, when I reported about what a tribulation it was for me to lose my family except my younger daughter, I stopped that habit of mine that I don't talk about my problems to strangers. By remembering it subsequently, this already seemed to be a girlish lamentation compared to what like I used to be till then.

\- And are you already starting to be as manly as you were?

\- I haven't fallen in love with anybody yet of course and I think anyone hasn't fallen in love with me yet, but, by the way, I wouldn't let her show it to me. It's also among I'm less manly, that I don't feel drawn to anybody at all; my wife is the only one who I miss as a woman.

\- But if you let someone show you her love on you, it was also love between you and her; it only wasn't mutual. If you felt that somebody was in love in you and she showed you it, you could start to become manlier again.

\- It would be very hard because I would feel like she would be a man or some animal, with the exception of my wife, so I almost have a horror of it for the time being.

\- So if somebody was in love with you and you knew it, will you start a relationship with her or will you feel like this forever, not for the time being?

\- If it happens, I probably figure out something to make that thing come up that if she really feels love for me, and if she does, I'll get myself to start a relationship with her.

Lucy was cherishing the hope during waiting for Katy in the hairdressing salon. When they had arrived, there was exactly anyone else but they.

\- Hi!

\- Hi. I've looked for on Delilah's profile if it's written where she lives. It's natural that she hasn't moved but if you at least got her to delete her address from the net, I knew that you've at least talked to her.

\- I've tried it. She also said she may move. But she also said that she's maybe staying till her father finds her and she will engage some bodyguards.

\- Shucks!

\- But I think she's gonna delete her address from there; just she hasn't had time to do it yet.

\- It's totally the same! Laurence already knows where she lives.

\- Are you sure of he wanna meet with her? Already days has pasted since he woke up but he still hasn't gone to her.

\- He's said he wanna meet with her. And why wouldn't he wanna? He only hadn't had enough time for that because of the may shows...

\- He really can be curious about what like adult she became... Well, do you give me any more time?

\- Well, if you get her to move and if she moves before they meet, you get the money.

\- Well, I'll try it – anyway, she wanted to be Delilah's better friend, maybe their friendship with Jenny will be in a bigger safety.

Katy, after leaving the hairdressing salon, immediately called the most popular TV channel on the phone.

\- Hello, it's me again, but because of a total other business.

\- Hi! I'm curiously listening to you.

\- I looked after Laurence's daughter today, because of a private affair, because one of my friends wanna be friends with Delilah and after I've written the girl's name into the search engine, some things also appeared about Laurence of course. One of them contained that someone's in love with Laurence. But not anyone! She went up to her profile today after twenty years and she was born in 1990 according to her data! Do you understand?! This woman is already forty-one years old! She lived in depression during twenty years because of Laurence's death!

\- It's not anything. The reason why she connected again to the world, is surely because she got to know that her love is alive. A woman lives in the world who is over twenty-nine years old! I think you found her first! When can you come in the studio?

\- I haven't got any program in other shows today, tomorrow either. But shouldn't you call the woman to there too? She lives in Hungary and she also has to arrive in there!

\- I will contact her and get her to come as soon as she can. Just don't other people find her before it! What's her name?

\- Diána Kovács. She lives in a city called Tatabánya, in Hungary.

\- Thanks! I'll call you about when you have to come, when I already got to know when she can come. Bye!

\- Bye!

Diána counted on what will happen. She was impatiently looking forward to the shows to call her and was preparing with big excitement for speaking in front of TV cameras in her mind, when she was in her room what was furnished with orange and brown furniture, and it had light pink walls. She also hoped that she could meet with Laurence in America, she was going to walk all Hudson Heights if it would be necessary, and look for houses with tall fences, what she planned it beside some other plans twenty years ago, to meet with the man. But he is the only man in the world now, all of them are younger than her so they surely look better than her! Because of the freezing, Laurence was still so handsome like he used to be, he hadn't get older! Moreover, now, when he lost weight, he looked even more handsome! – she noticed joyously. After years, twenty years ago she already started to be ashamed of the man's age who she had loved, and she hoped when they'll be a couple, he will look the same or even more handsome because if she won't love him anymore, she unnecessarily suffered for nine years. When she was twenty-one years old, she already had loved him for nine years, more and more, but hopelessly. And now, twenty years later, he didn't get older!

She looked at her profile the same day, to see if any of the TV shows had written to her yet.

Victoria Dawson, the anchor of an American channel asked her through the community site's messenger to appear in a studio in New York if she can, on the address and date she indicated.

Diána wondered how simple the world's functioning became. Then it came into her head that she hadn't given her e-mail address and telephone number either. The anchor gave these availabilities so Diána called her on the phone, after annoyance because they think anybody had enough money to travel to the other side of the Earth. She already would do when she was a teen, because of Laurence, if she was be so rich! And she wasn't even near to the poverty; she was nearer to the riches then. Nowadays, she was unambiguously nearer the poverty, because of the depression, after sold the unnecessary furniture after her family's death. Because of the depression she felt by Laurence's death, she used to order that little food she could eat, also because of this, and she used to order it to in front of her door. It was interesting that she also had a terrible life before, but she used to want to eat all day, but she always used to do diets and always used to use remedies what had to make her lose weight, but it wasn't enough that she always precisely used to keep the rules, because of her thyroid illness, she had never became thin what her aim would be. But, in the past twenty years, anything didn't interest her, but that thing that she was alive, she had her memories what she could think about, even if these didn't make sense. Then, when she got to know that her love was alive, everything started to interest her again what things interested her till she was twenty-one years old. She spent the recent days with tiding the flat's and her own look up but she still hadn't felt the house; she only cleaned pretty much her flat, she combed her long, fairish-brownish hair, took her eyebrow's unnecessary part of her skin, put on make-up to these, to her round, brown eyes, and her thin lips and she also had a bath every day again, she already ordered some soap, scent, detergent, dishwater and everything she needed. She still paid on the internet, from her bank account. She used to be too depressed for years to leave her flat, then she would be embarrassed because everybody would watch her on the street that this old woman is also in the world, and a huge fuss would start about her. At least comperatively few people were going to be in the studio. However, a lot of people will watch her on TV, and she was very excited about this but she very hoped it won't be a live broadcast, and they will can shoot what didn't work well. But now, when she started to take care of her look again, and looked in the mirror again, she saw that it wasn't sure that everybody will notice how old she was: she looked ten years older than her age, because she didn't really sued to be anything for twenty years. Her pimples disappeared, and people could see her to be thin, because she ate so little food!

Vicky sent a private airplane to Diána for the journey; they paid it because of the woman's pecuniary standing; anyway, the show was going to get huge receipts when they will broadcast a conversation with the woman who was the only woman who was at least thirty years old in the world and who turned up after twenty years. And because of the private airplane, wondering people didn't hinder her in her journey to America.

Diána was tensely sitting idly during the flight to America. She was wearing her purple evening dress and her hair had a wave. She was planning how to word her story and considering about how many people will harass her then or after the show because they will recognize her by she was that woman in the show who was allegedly at least thirty years old and did't just seem to be some years older than her age, or they won't harass her so much because they already had seen her in the show so will already know that a woman is alive who is more than twenty-nine years old, and that maybe there are several women, just they didn't leave their house because of the depression...

Later he got tired of her thoughts, and fell asleep, and then, after some hours, woke up frightened because didn't now how much time she had for putting her hair and smeared make-up in order.

She took her curling tongs, minor and make-up appliances out and put herself in order again in panic, then was considering about how she will word even in English that what a big fan she was of Laurence, if she meets with him. She hoped the man won't watch the show because they will probably talk about she's in love with him, and she thought it would be took fast in getting to know each other with Laurence; maybe he wouldn't even be ready to meet with her because he would be afraid of she would make passes at him. Diána watched the man in the shows where he appeared in nowadays; he was broadcasted in every country with broadcasting some parts of American shows because he was the only man who turned up after twenty years so the woman also got to know that Laurence was fed up with girls trying to flirt with him. And she knew everything about him for more than twenty years what people can know about a world-famous movie-star from the other side of the Earth, by bios, interviews, news and pictures through the internet, beside she had watched him in more than thirty movies and she already had seen most of movies several times. She also started to watch CSI because of him, but this was nothing compared to what this girl used to do to contact the man she loved, till she was twenty-one years old. And her love was by chance exactly a famous, American actor with a family. The grief tormented her for many years because she believed that he died with the other men, she got to know that there was even bigger grief than she used to feel before, because she experienced it, as an addition, also regard to Laurence.

It came into her head after getting oft, that she didn't know how this Victoria Dawson looked like. Fortunately, she could remember her name because this is the family name of one of the co-starts in one of her favorite movies, the Titanic. But now she had to ask somebody where she could find Victoria! She had never asked anybody about anything by herself, with initating the conversation, but her family, her best friend and some relatives and in very rare, unconditionally important situations. Is it sure that this is so important business that she had to do this? In the end, she mostly came into America to look Laurence up, and now she got the money for it. But if she doesn't appear in the show, they this money could be claimed back what she got to travel there to appear in the show, and she couldn't pay it it easn't money that she got but she got a travel on a private airplane, but already she would spend it to the plane ticket if it would be money what she got. But is it sure she can do it what psychiatrists and psychologists couldn't even get her to do it either?!

She just imagined that she was doing it, and her palms already began sweating and her heart was violently beating. As an addition, she hadn't talk to anybody for twenty years with the expection of that telephone conversation the other day.

Vicky noticed Diána who was lingering and feeling embarrassed at the other side of the building; she thought maybe that was that Hungarian woman. She went up to her, but then she noticed that she didn't even nearly seem to be fourty-one.

\- Hi! Have you seen that almost middle-aged woman coming in? However, I think there would be a totally huge fuss because of her...

\- I am her... - Diána blurted it out shyly.

\- You??? – Vicky laughed.

Diána smiled because it was so unbelievable that she was in her fourties.

\- Did you say that seriously? – Vicky asked.

\- Yes – Diána became serious.

\- Sorry but I have to check it because maybe just a twenty-nine years old girl passes off as you to appear in the show instead of you or what... Can I get your certificate? – Vicky said in embarrassment, too.

Diána took her yellow certificate case out of her bag. She just saw it then for the first time after twenty years, and it irritated her and she was ashamed again of how much it was scratched all over. Like it wouldn't interest her, like she would be unassuming and she wouldn't want the most beautiful one about everything, whereas she hadn't do anything to this certificate case but just brought it in her bag! This little case was also almost so reversed like her all life... And now she also worried about her certificate expired a long time ago.

\- Here you are, but they already expired a long time ago.

\- It's really there on all of them that you were born in 1990! And there are the same datas on them, and also, you resemble the photos! You have hardly changed! How do you do it??? Rather answer this in broadcast! But don't be so excited; you just have to sit down in the studio with me and to answer! Haven't you ever appeared on TV yet?

\- No, I haven't...

It came into Vicky-s head that the reason why Diána was so shy, was because maybe she didn't even talk to anybody during the twenty years. She decided to also ask this in the show.

\- I see your make-up is already such pretty; maybe they won't have to do your make-up. Is there any foundation, face powder or press corrector on you?

\- No – Diána didn't see it necessary anymore because her pimples disappeared.

\- Really??? I thought it's a reason why how young you seem to so it should be taken off from your face so the audience would believe your age, too. But I'll tell that I've seen your certificates what it unambiguously came out from that you are her – Diána felt envy while hearing how much this anchor girl could prattle. It's surely because of her job. But she will also speak awkwardly little in the show, even if she only has to answer.

In the show, Diána was made to tell everything about the way she lived in the past twenty years and why she lived that way. After the long conversation, she was also asked about further things, about her love for Laurence, and she also answered sincerely.

\- Why were you taken by so much about Laurence Fishburne? – Vicky asked after getting it out of the woman that this love how many years ago started and what like her teenage years were because of this.

\- A lot of things. For example, for me, he's the most attractive man in the world about his look and about everything too; and about his voice and inside quality; he had been the manliest man in the world. At least, he was that twenty years ago; I observed it in his bio, interviews and news about him – Diána was surprised at when she spoke in glowing terms about her love, she spoke a lot more. She had always been proud of Laurence was who she loved, she could enumerate so many things bout why she loved him about she enumerated now. And while she spoke about him, she looked even younger by that sweet feeling what transfixed her by the love.

\- If you were his girlfriend, his personality was as manly again as his voice and his look. You just have to make him believe that you really love him with real love, you don't wanna be dating him because of those reasons like the others; not because he1s the only and most famous man in the world because of this and because of his playing in movies and in CSI and because he was the manliest man in the world till he was frosted or maybe because his look would be the only thing you like. I think you would like to be his girlfriend, too. But I think you also have seen in our show that it isn't that easy, as an addition, he has been mourning his wife's death, and she is the only woman who he can feel drawn to, till he experiences love, even if only by one member of the couple, to feel that somebody's in love with him.

\- Yes, I know.

\- And you have to make him sure because that is the reason why you would like a relationship with him. A girl is going to speak about proving it, after the commercial. She is that girl who found Diána on the internet. Stay with us because you guys will be surprised at who she is!

The people turned the TV cameras off, Diána stood up, Vicky went up to her.

\- You don't have to take part in the show's resumption but if you stay and keep answering my and that girl's questions who's gonna come in after the commercial, we'll pay you of course – she said - The show's gonna continue five minutes later; you have to decide till then.

\- I'll stay – she could get to know by it that what to so Laurence would believe her; she wouldn't see it on TV because she couldn't arrive back in the hotel in that moment because it was a live broadcast, and even if it will be repated on TV what the girl said, it wasn't sure that Diána will watch TV exactly than, as an addition, exactly this channel.

\- Super. But couldn't you answer at least a bit longer? Or is the the reason why you're so tight lipped, because you didn't talk to anybody at all for twenty years? – Vicky asked kindly.

\- This is a reason, too...

\- Wait, rather answer it in broadcast! – she interrupted her – Let's sit back because it's continuing.

They sat back to their place, people turned the TV cameras back; Diána's head was so much trembling again because she had to appear in a live broadcast, that she also felt embarrassed because of her trembling. She remembered that happened when strangers took a photo about her alone to a group photograph of the class, in high-school, and when also strangers took a passport photo, and when she had to answer the teacher's question in the class's presence, and when she talked to her last psychiatrist for the first time.

\- Hi, we're here again with Diána Kovács, the only woman who is over twenty-nine! – Vicky began.

\- Hi – Diána said again.

\- Diána, I forgot to ask you how it feels to be the oldest woman in the world.

\- Always, in every community, I've always been the only or one of the oldest ones, and this thing has more and more disturbed me – she remembered – Now I can't to say it's good when every girl is much younger than me – she smiled shyly.

\- But you seem like you would be of the same age as the twenty-nine-year-old ones, just would seem some years older than your age – Vicky comforted her politely – How do you do it, you're already forty-one years old?!

\- I also looked some years younger when I was a teenage, maybe it was also because that thing, that any amount years past, at home I behaved like I would be in that age; sometimes maybe like I would be even younger - Diána worked hard to overwork herself to answer longer, like when her last psychiatrist gave it her as a homework – And I was so depressed in the past twenty years that I didn't do any physical work, I hardly cleaned the flat, I never left the house; I only worked through the internet.

\- Was this depression rather because of losing your family and friends or Laurence?

\- Because of all of them, and because every men and boys died, and I haven't known yet that he didn't; I started to feel even bigger grief than I used to feel before because of my love for Laurence. Because it used to seem like I will never experience mutual love – she already had said before the commercial why didn't she committed suicide.

\- But it came out that Laurence Fishburne is alive, and the girl who's coming, knows how to convince him of your love. Katy Lohan!

Everybody got surprised at it of the audience; Diána too. This is that girl who met with Laurence for the first time after twenty years, she is that one who tried to become her girlfriend for the first time, and now, she is who find on internet the only woman in the world who is over twenty-nine!

\- Hi! – Katy stepped into the studio in a short, necklined, yellow dress, and sat down to the only emty chair on the stage, crossed her legs, folded her hands on her knees, she had a beautiful, golden bangle on one of her wrists and an elegant, white ring on one of her fingers – Before you could believe that this is a so big coincidence that it's a lie, I tell you that the business are a bit connected with each other. I know Laurence Fishburne in person; I have talked with some of my friends about him and about his daughter, the national beauty queen Delilah and one of my friends wanted to be Delilah's friend, so I looked after the girl on the internet, and some things also appeared about his father of course, so one of the community sites profile also appeared of Diána because it was almost unambiguous that she's in love with him.

\- Why did you click to Diána's profile?

\- I wanted to know who fell in love with Laurence Fishburne because we don't know yet that anybody would fell in love with him, and if she became his girlfriend, Laurence's manly personality came back – and Katy appeared in further shows.

\- I see. And how to prove to Laurence that this is really love that Diána feels for him?

\- Fortunately, she is also on a community site where it seems that she put some poems on it more than twenty years ago, under Laurence's photo, and that poems completely unequivocally very serious love poems. We just have to show it to him if he doesn't believe it.

\- But Diána is Hungarian, isn't she? I think she wrote that poems in Hungarian.

It irritated Diána that Vicky didn't ask her the questions. It irritated Diána that Vicky didn't ask her the questions. She felt herself so unnecessary again like when she used to meet with her and her younger sister's friend, with both of them and she only said hello and answered to their friend and said things in connection with the subjects that way that the two other girls didn't know who she said it to or if she said it to both of them because she didn't dare to say anything to their friend, except when she asked Diána, because of her illness, and it would be indecency if she would only talked to her sister.

She nor didn't dare talk to Vicky then, nor to Katy by herself, like she also used to feel herself unnecessary in her friend's and sister's company because there was hardly such a subject what she commented. But surely there was a reason why they will pay to her if she stays in this part of the broadcast, and then the happiness of she will be her life's love's girlfriend at last, suppressed the feeling to be unnecessary.

\- Yes, but there are several poems between the comments she wrote, from that age some of them are in Hungarian, others are in English language, and these are about her love for him. There are a serious, emotional and another version what's mostly about her attraction to his look.

\- It surely will be enough proof. Diána, thank you for you were here. We're going to continue the show after the commercial, and Katy is going to give Diána some advices on what to do for her relationship with Laurence Fishburne to be as successful as possible.

Diána was indignant and desperate inside \- So how will she got to know how was it recommended to behave with Laurence?! This all is only for the show, not so they would be dating! – she thought.

She nervously ran out of the studio while the commercial began, and almost crashed into someone who... The same tall, the same brown but not typical African dark brown skin, the same manly, square face, the same eyes, the special-shaped eyebrows, short nose with wide bottom and arched lips!!! The reason why Diána's heart was beating violently, wasn't because of the the indignation anymore, and she felt like she will faint. She couldn't even move, just was standing and waiting, she didn't even know for what.

\- Are the anchors are so irritating like this? I only have appeared in that show once but I haven't observe they would be worse than the others – Laurence began to speak.

Diána couldn't even begin to speak. She just heard in live his manly, deep voice she always loved! And he talked to personally her!!!

\- I'm happy if the reason why you can't begin to speak is becuse you're a very big fan of mine – he smiled.

He didn't even know how much she loved him! – Diána thought inside.

\- I'm a very big fan of you – she began to speak.

\- Because I'm the only man in the world or because of CSI or one of my movies?

Diána became even more embarrassed and retained a smile.

\- You're lucky because we met here 'cause I'm called into this show again but if you too only wanna make passes at me, you're better to forget it. I'm gonna be called in, anyway – he continued it.

Diána didn't say anything. Anyway, it was going to be telled in the show that she was in love with him and that she exceptionally wasn't a teen, nor a girl in her twenties.

Diána was looking at the building's way out like she was waiting for somebody, and than, some minutes later, Laurence was called in.

Diána stayed there, looked round, and, because there wasn't anyone, she went near to the door and was eavesdropping.

7

Of course, the subject already wasn't that what way Diána should behave with Laurence.

\- What are your days like nowadays? Do still a lot of people wanna make passes at you? – Vicky asked. Katy wasn't there anymore, she left the show through the other door.

\- Already most of them mostly only inquire after if I have a girlfriend yet and what like women I like because they wanna introduce somebody to me. Some of them have said that if they can't be my girlfriend, they wanna see me a current, real love relationship in live or at least on TV, because they only see man-woman relationships always in at least twenty-year-old movies.

\- So you haven't got a girlfriend yet?

\- No, I haven't.

\- And because it came to the subject, can I ask you what like women you like?

\- When I still could feel drawn to women, I mostly liked blacks, with thin or middle built and long hair; the other things were variable.

\- Yes, we looked after your wife and that woman who was your girlfriend before her, and they also fell within this.

\- How much chance does a woman have with you who meets two of these requirements?

\- It depends on a lot of things; I can't tell it, but who only meets one of these requirements, or with nothing of these, evidently has less chance to I fall in love with her.

\- I think you already think that we have found someone, and not anyone; who's in with love with you and she can also prove it.

Laurence was afraid because he had to be a cuople with someone who wasn't Gina, but, at the same time, he was happy about the poison's influence will be over.

\- Does that chance still interest you that your manly inside qualities can be back? Laurence considered for some seconds.

\- Yes.

\- Didn't you meet with a girl nowadays who has special qualities?

Laurence considered again.

\- Only now, before I came into the studio – Vicky, and Katy between the onlookers, smiled to each other.

\- Why, what like was she?

\- She was much shyer than people I meet with nowadays, and also, she was more tight-lipped than people who I used to meet with twenty years ago. Why?

\- What do you think?

\- She's who...?

\- Yes, she is. She is the woman who loves you for more than twenty years; she doesn't only love you as a fan but the way a woman loves a man.

\- For more than twenty years???

\- We haven't told you a very important thing about this woman. This woman is already forty-one years old. Katy found her on the internet because she was looking for Delilah for one of her friend's sake who wanted to be her friend, but evidently your name also appeared between the things she found, so Diána's name also, because it unambiguously came out according to her profile that she's in love with you.

\- It's too much to me. And why did people find the only man and the only at least thirty-year-old woman in the world in the same year?

\- Diána lived in so big depression because she believed you died with the other men, that she wasn't in contact to the world, but when she got to know that you're alive, she started to live a complete life again, and she is also on a community site what shows that she entered there just now after twenty years. This is the profile what Katy found.

\- I wanna see the proof. This all thing seems to be very unbelievable and I don't wanna be dating with anybody unnecessarily.

\- So the proof please.

It was shown on the backdrop wall; the community site and that cliclked to Diána's profile, then into the another community site, and showed the indications what also referred to that there, and the poems she wrote under Laurence's photo twenty or more than twenty years ago. Diána was indignant by hearing behind the door that Vicky wasn't only reading the date but she was also reading the English poems out - Diána didn't agree to it and she put Laurence's photo and the poems to the very end of the pictures on purpose because she didn't want to advertise that she was in love with a star being an adult! – she thought - But by it, at least the man was going to be ready to be her boyfriend at last.But only by compulsion!

After the show, Laurence and Diána were surprised at finding themselves in front of each other in the corridor again. The woman was watching like a frightened little girl and now almost seemed like that.

\- You were eavesdropping here till the end?

\- I didn't have time to arrive back in the hotel to watch the show – Diána gabbled nervously.

\- Really you are that forty-one-year-old woman?

\- I'll show you my certificate if it's necessary – she began opening her bag. She didn't endure when someone didn't believe her. As an addition, exactly he, who was the most important person to her for more than twenty years!

\- It's not necessary – he grabbed her arm – I've seen some photos of you and they identified you because you haven't changed too much - Diána hardly was conscious. Her love touched her, now for the first time!

\- Anyway, we have to start to get closer to each other one day - they smiled. Diána closed her bag. Now, when she saw her love in live, who she had loved since she was a teen, she looked younger then thirty too – When can we meet?

\- It's OK for me whenever but I don't know this city, nor the country so...

\- You really have a strange accent. Which country are you from?

\- From Hungary.

\- Once I became a friend of a Hungarian director so I played in two movies of him.

\- I know...

\- I think you know everything about me what people can know by the internet.

\- Yes... - Diána was still very embarrassed. Mainly now, when he already knew that she was that woman who was in love with him for years and he had to be her boyfriend by compulsion, by interest, he had to be dating her, who was the oldest woman in the world!

\- I think I'm also better to get to know you some more. Tomorrow, at three in the afternoon, I will go for you and we will go somewhere what isn't a too noisy place. In which hotel are you staying?

Delilah was talking to Jenny on the phone when Lucy rang. She left her to the bodyguard so Lucy found herself in front of a tall, muscular, almost manly girl who was over twenty-five.

\- Hello, who are you? – she began to speak to her in a deep voice.

\- Hi! I'm Jenny's friend who is Delilah's friend; I've already met with her twice.

\- I know Jenny. You can come in.

\- Thank you – she stepped in through the gate, heaving a sigh of relief, and a beautiful, grassy garden unfolded before her with some flowers and strange trees. Then Delilah appeared on the stair of the house's side.

\- Hello! Sorry I didn't answer the door but I was exactly talking to Jenny on the phone.

\- Hi...

\- Will you come in?

\- Yeah... - she went up on the stair.

\- I think you didn't come to Jenny now because she isn't here now – they arrived at the hall. There were small, colorful flowers on the higher lacing of the wall.

\- I think it was super to chat on Jenny, and I thought we could be better friends. But not because you are the national beauty queen, nor because your dad is the only man in the world! – she took her white sandalss off.

\- Cool it, you don't have to make excuses! – they went into the living room what was designed with yellow and orange colors, and sat down to the sofa – What will we chat about?

\- I saw today in live broadcast that a forty-one years old woman was found who's in love exactly with her daddy, as an addition, for more than twenty years! – Lucy fakedthat she was surprised at it.

\- I was also watching it because it was advertiesed before it that there was gonna be a very important thing in connection with my dad.

\- I thought you were watching it; just something came into my head in connection with it. I don't know how much it would shake you if you saw your dad again when still almost his look and voice are the only things what are manly, but I think it would be very brutal so I think you should wait till that woman transforms your dad back or what.

\- Maybe you're right. And it will be easier to him than to me, to search me, anyway, because it was on the next that I still live here where I lived twenty years ago with him and my mom, and he's gonna come when he'll have time to do it.

\- Your mom also was an actor, wasn't she?

\- Yes, and an opera singer, before that – Lucy retained a laugh.

\- Were you already alive when your parents died? How old are you?

\- I'm twenty-one so I don't remember them too much.

The two girls were talking for one further hour, and than Lucy went home because she didn't want to be indecent by disturbing Delilah after she turned up to her house without a word.

Diána was very excited till three in the afternoon because she was going to meet with Laurence again, for much longer time than at the studio; and she was happy about she had met with him at last and was also happy about she was going to meet with him and his wife wasn't there anymore so she could let herself directly fight for her love. She remembered that when Gina was expectant with Delilah, she hoped that Gina will miscarry because a child could even more connect them. She felt guilty conscience because of this, but she felt it much more now: she was happy about Gina died. Exactly she, exactly Diána, who still couldn't even get herself to trample an insect either!

She was getting ready in the hotel for the meeting, she was putting up make-up and doing her hair through very long time and was trying dresses after the others like a teenage girl gets ready for the first date of her life. She already had five boyfriends when she was a teen but she didn't feel love for anybody of them; she was with them only to get experiences and confidence. She already loved Laurence during those relationships.

She had never been so excited like that day, when she was waiting for Laurence. In the last minutes, she hoped he won't come today and was looking forward to see him again at the same time. She was wearing her light pink skirt with her white sandals and black T-shirt without straps, according to her last decision. She put two curls of her hair to the sides, with a pink barrette; she let the rest of her hair hanging and put two curls of it forward.

She went down in front of the hotel, and when she noticed Laurence in live again, it was almost so strange for her like for the first time. He was wearing a green, single-colored T-shirt and light green shorts and now somehow looked so handsome in these clothes that Diána wanted to jump into his arms and kiss him right now.

\- Hi – the man said at first.

\- Hi.

\- That place where I used to meet with my friends is very far from here and almost that's the only place where we could get to know each other without people would take photos, ask questions and eavesdrop so we have to go by car; we can be talking during it too.

\- OK.

\- I bought this car nowadays because I was so much fed up with aggressive taxi driver girls and I haven't have time to go to the house what used to be mine, maybe my car is still there or Delilah sold it – when Laurence finished the sentence, they already had gott in the car and started for a long time. Diána didn't even know what part of the sentence she should answer. And she had to answer now if she whenever had to answer because her aim was to get on well with her love, as well as she could. She had to answer without waiting for a question, just this once – It's interesting that many girls how much try to be my girlfriend, but they aren't in love with me, and you don't even dare begin to speak – he smiled.

Diána also insisted on smiling, to save herself from this awkward situation.

\- When other men still lived in the world, didn't girls harass you? – she overworked herself.

\- Well, it's sure that this many girls didn't do it. I have had some crazy fans but it's sure that this many girls didn't harass me.

\- I've read that you were kind towards them how your mom used to teach it to you.

\- Yeah, but I think it's understandable that I'm not so kind with this many, very aggressive girls.

\- I think it, too.

\- How old were you when you started to like me?

\- I was twelve.

\- I was already forty-one, too.

\- Yes.

\- It's interesting how now we fit about age in spite of this, because of my freezing.

\- Yes, it's visible that you didn't even get older, nor your organism, I've heard.

\- You didn't get much older either; rather only your face became more womanly, it isn't so little-girlish anymore than on your old photos.

\- How many white girlfriends have you had?

\- I have had five girlfriends altogether in addition to Hajna and Gina who also became my wife. Two of these five were white. Have you ever had any black boyfriend?

\- I also have had five boyfriends and one of them was black but I only met with him once because... - Diána suddenly still didn't dare to continue the sentence.

\- Why?

\- It's a very personal thing. However, you already also have the right to know it.

\- So do you tell me?

\- After being my boyfriend for three days, he decided to tell me he didn't wanna such a girlfriend who didn't sleep with him.

\- You're still virgin??? Or have you slept with a boyfriend you had?

\- I didn't sleep with any of them. I couldn't and still can't do it without love and my religion also prohibits it and I still live according to this.

\- What's your religion?

\- It's not a popular religion – the woman began to smile.

\- Jehovah's witnesses?

\- Exactly. In which religion do you believe? Diána intentionally didn't left any time to him to start to say bad things about this religion.

\- I'm not religious but I believe in God too.

\- In Jehovah's Witness's religion too?

\- I don't know too many things about that religion but it's still better if someone remains virgin till marriage than what my older daughter used to do.

Diána wanted to tell him that how many things she did twenty and more than twenty years ago to be famous but by love, so Laurence would get to know her, and that she hadn't even been able to do porn even if this was the only way how her love got to know that she was in the world. She haven't even beem able to agree to take any photo about her in lingerie either, even if she hided it. Let alone, a nude photo. Let alone a video during that intimate activity like that. Let alone before the world's very eyes. She couldn't say anything because she didn't want to keep offending her love's daughter when he was also hearing it, let alone then, when Montana was dead.

\- How could she sink this deep? Did she get into bad company? Because I can't imagine that you would played a part in Montana's moral decay – it came into her head.

\- I didn't divorced from her mother by chance. She also became a similar bitch during our marriage like her daughter, and the judge didn't forbid her to spend any time with her.

\- I understand it now. I wanted to understand it already when I was twenty years old, I wanted to k now whose fault is it because I wanted to tell it to they know that it weren't you who brought her up badly. When I got to know the news from the internet, I felt odd for days because I have never heard or read any scandal about you, then a site was written about maybe it was your mistake.

\- If it shaken you so much that you unburdened yourself to me with that thing that you're so shy, and you haven't even met with me then; you can imagine what it could be like for me. I am who brought her up, I met with her regularly, and she got to be that shameless bitch. I have considered about how I spoiled her but never came into my head anything, but her mother. And one of the most brutal thing is in this that she used our family name. She was dead for me already then. Gina's, Langston's and my mom's death shaken me manifold than Montana's literally death.

\- How old was your mom?

\- She was seventy-five but she seemed to be a lot younger.

\- I know; I have seen some photos about her.

\- I only met with my father almost in my childhood when they haven't divorced yet and when he visited me once a month.

- When are you gonna meet with Delilah?

\- I'm gonna go to her house tomorrow, in any case; I've already waited a lot till doing it.

\- I'm curious about what like adult she became during the twenty years while I didn't see her – he smiled – and what's up with our house.

\- What was Delilah like when she was a little girl? – they had arrived and got out of the car exactly after the question.

\- She was a very good little girl, we loved her with Gina and she loved us too.

\- It could be terrible to her when she lost her parents.

\- And this place reminds me of my pals; I used to meet with them here. It's good that I'm not alone when I'm seeing this place again when they aren't alive anymore. Diána was happy about this time Laurence didn't only need her to become his girlfriend so she would make that poison's influence over but it also started to disturb her more and more that his personality was this much less manly; the feminine, sincere, sentimental precision he spoke with, because of the same, hormone-killer poison. Her family already would be right if they were alive: already she only loved his look and voice. Until he'll have a girlfriend who's inn love him, and it was going to be exactly her! Her cheerfulness came back again.

\- This is that place where everybody used to check in who wanted to go in, in the exception of them?

\- Yes. It's already Delilah's property since everybody believed that I died because I was frosted, but maybe she sold it. If she hasn't, she surely changed the things in it to more girlish things. But it didn't change anything from outside.

It was simple white from outside, there wasn't any special on it. Anybody didn't think that it was Laurence Fishburne's manly "refuge", where used to be secret passages in it and where everybody used to check in the exception of his pals. Who knows, maybe it became some completely girlish place during twenty years, mostly in this world when girls offsated that a lot of them had to do manly works, with conducting themselves so girlish way that it was almost ridiculous, and that girls who didn't do manly works, also became like them because they sued to perceive like it would be a trend so they felt good by it. Laurence had heard this analysis from TV, by a psychologist. Nowadays, when he just woke up after twenty years in the world of teenager and even younger girls and who were in their twenties, he comparatively watched TV a lot to get to know this world.

\- Won't we ring and ask what this building became? – a little girl came forward Diána.

\- I don't think it worthes so much now when I'm one of the most famous persons in the world; I would be harassed again by being inquisitive. But you could ask it instead of me; almost you are the only one who I have confidence in, that you will tell the truth. I'll stay in the car.

\- OK. But what should I say?

\- Just ask what this place iss because you're curious, say thanks for the information and tell that you don't need their services now. But, of course, don't say it with that formal expressions; only say it like that if it became some official place – he smiled.

Diána got frightened by the unusual task - She had to ask a stranger! – she thought.

\- It's sure that they won't think I'm crazy? – the woman smiled to seem to be partly kidding.

\- Tell them that you're on a holiday here, and then they surely won't. But, in the end I can ask one of Delilah's friends for it if you're so shy – he smiled at Diána's shyness.

\- No, I'll do it – she still smiled like it would be nothing. She made up her mind no fewer than this for her love.

\- OK, and after that get in my car, and we go to some desolate place – he got in the car, Diána walked to the building's door with trembling feet, and rang.

Maybe it's a flat –she thought. Everything began trembling on her by this possibility - What an awkward situation! If not, that was awkward that she rang!

\- Hi, why did you ring? – a girl answered the door who was about twenty years old and she had long, blondish brown hair. Diána almost fainted by the shame.

\- Hi, I just...

\- Oh my God, I've seen you on TV! You're that forty-one-year-old woman! – she broke in Diána's words. Diána didn't count on this. Everybody judges she's twenty-nine, then identifies her by TV???

\- Yes, but now... Well I'm on a holiday here or what, and I would like to know what this place is because I'm curious.

\- You won't believe it! Laurence Fishburne used to come here with his pals to relax! It just came into my head now that you're in love with him!

The woman nor counted on that she will say these things – So, it's the most super cloth store of the city now. Will cou come in? Or at least give me an autograph!

\- OK – Diána smiled shyly – I haven't got a much money for new clothes now. But if you have a paper and a pen, I can give you an autograph – she tried to smile as much as she could so it would seem to be almost laughing because maybe the girl didn't mention the autograph seriously.

\- Wait, I'll bring it soon! – the girl ran into the store and came back with a dark pink slip and a middle pink pen. So she really said it seriously – I've got an idea! You can buy a cheap pant a half cheaper than its cost, in exchange for the autograph! Come on, I'll show you which pants you can choose from!

\- Thank you but somebody's waiting for me in the car.

\- But will you still give me an autograph?

\- Sure. I've never given any autograph yet – she smiled.

\- Really? By the way I'm Jenny; also write it on it that you're giving it me! – Jenny Smith said during giving her the paper and the pen – It's incredible that I'm the firs tone who the only woman who is at least thirty years old, gives me an autograph - Jenny said while Diána was writing her name and the text, still with little girlish, round words, like twenty years ago, since she had never even written any world. She was surprised at she still could write at all.

\- Thanks! I won't hinder you anymore. Goodbye! – Jenny got the paper and the pen.

\- Bye! – Jenny went back into the store; Diána got in Laurence's dark-windowed car. Jenny could think the windows were dark because of Diána. The man saw everything from inside, of course.

\- It seems like already this popular woman is the only one whose boyfriend I can be – Laurence smiled.

Diána smiled back.

\- I just gave autograph now for the first time.

\- What became of my favourite place?

\- The shop assistant girl was worded like "the most super cloth store of the city". She offered me to give me cheap pants at half price in exchange for the autograph but I already kept you wait long.

\- But you would deserve that little reward. I saw that what an excited you were.

\- Anyway, it isn't the most important thing to me for the time being, to have any more new clothes. I have to find a job that pays more, as soon as possible, because now, when I already have to pay the accommodation, I'm not gonna have anything to eat soon.

\- I can pay the accommodation instead of you; anyway, I owe you because you granted this big request of me.

\- I didn't say it with this reason...

\- And I didn't supposed it but I think you also know that this amount of money is almost nothing for me but it can help you a lot and can compensate you for this situation that you felt awkward.

\- That thing would compensate for my all miserable life if you loved me mutually – Diána said inside. But she couldn't tell anything.

\- Thank you very much – this was the only thing that came into her head. Laurence got going the car – Where are we going now?

\- I think let it be a surprise.

Laurence took Diána to a so beautiful and elegant restaurant what she had never seen in live. The man paid for the owner so she wouldn't let anybody else into the restaurant now. Diána told him that she was mixed up then, about eating, because she was on a diet since she was thirteen years old till she was twenty-one, then she only could eat very little during twenty years, because of the depression, and then she had appetite again, and didn't really know how to eat, maybe she should turn back to her diet not to put on any weight or she should still eat as little as during her depression because she only succeeded in losing enough weight for her own sake by it, because of her thyroid illness. Laurence also told her that he didn't eat anything during some days, after he got to know that everybody died of his family and friends who were men, boy or over twenty-nine, also, he ate less and that he still kept it to later, now, when he became this very famous person because he put on a lot of weight before they frosted him, but it didn't matter so much before. They were mostly talking about this and Diána's trials in diets. The woman was eating fish; Laurence was eating chicken breast, also with salad. They laughed at Diána how much liked fish in both meanings because it was also the man's nickname and at Laurence still liked females, but to eat them, as an addition, this body part of them.

Laurence paid the dinner, of course, then took Diána back to the hotel.

Lucy just finished her work for that day and set off for home when her phone rang.

\- Hi Jenny!

\- Hello! I've got such a super story! When will we meet?

\- I just finished now so whenever today.

\- So we'll meet at my place, one hour later! Bye!

\- OK, bye! – Lucy went ome, took her stained top off and changet it for a vivid blue one what was tied on her neck's back, she read a bit her love novel she recent bought, then took a taxi, and arrived in Jenny's pace after fifteen minutes. They also found room in the room because they were just two of them. This room had orange furniture, yellow walls with orange flower-patterns on it and yellow curtains. They sat down to the bed, in front of each other, Jenny sat down to her ankles; Lucy was sitting with hoisted-up knees.

\- So do you tell it to me?

\- Today, I met with the forty-one years old woman who's in love with the only man in the world! She's also so shy in live like she has been on TV and I was the first one who she gave an autograph to! She hasn't even the slightest that I'm Delilah's friend.

\- Wasn't Laurence with her? In the end, it's also his interest to become her boyfriend because the action of the poison that makes him girlish, won't be over without it.

\- Now, when you said it, it came into my head that she said that somebody was waiting for her in the car, this was the reason why she didn't come in to buy anything when we met in my store and I offered her in exchange for the autograph to buy cheap pants at half price.

The bell rang. Jenny answered the door. It was Delilah.

\- Hello!

\- Hello!

\- Maybe it's queer but sometimes a world-star's bored, too.

They laughed.

\- Lucy's happen to be here, too. You know, my other friend – Jenny said while Delilah took her beautiful, pale yellow sandalss off.

\- Yeah, I remember, she has been in my house, too.

\- I didn't even know it – they set off into the living-room, Lucy saw them together, and joined them. Jenny and Delilah sat down to the sofa next to each oter again so Lucy got one of the armchairs again – Delilah, I haven't even told you it! – Jenny began it.

\- Today, Jenny Met with that woman who's in love with your daddy! – Lucy continued it.

\- We met in my store and I told her that your daddy used to meet with his pals here a long time ago, when it still a cloth store yet! – Jenny said enthusiastically.

\- You didn'teven tell it to me! – Lucy was indignant.

\- But I have already told you that this was his place where he used to relax and where there were secret passages!

\- But you didn't tell me that you also told it that woman!

\- So what?

\- You two are really having a quarrel over if Jenny told this trifle in private too??? – Delilah interrupted, then they stopped speaking.

\- OK, I'm continuing it. So I asked her for an autograph.

\- And she was the first girl she gave it to! – Lucy interrupted.

\- And she was as shy in live as on TV!

\- And Jenny offered her to give her a cheap pant at half price, in exchange for the autograph!

\- Because she said she hasn't got enough money to by any clothes – she didn't tell it to Lucy either, but she already didn't even remark it.

\- And she refused it because somebody was waiting for her I the car!

\- What had dark windows!

\- And maybe your dad was waiting in it!

\- Because it's also his interest to date her!

\- Thank you Lucy, I could tell it single handed too – Jenny said in a bored voice.

\- And why am I here??? I'm starting to feel to be unnecessary.

\- And wasn't Delilah keeping silent almost till the end?

\- She could comment on it, too.

\- Now I'm who start feeling unpleasantly... \- Delilah laughed in embarrassment.

\- I'm better to go now – Lucy stood up.

\- But now because of me, or yes? – Delilah asked, sounding the same as earlier.

\- Lucy, why do you wanna leave? – there was a smile on Jenny's lips while she was said,and a bit of mockery was in her voice.

\- I'm fed up with I'm only always the third, unnecessary one when we are the three of us! When I'm just with one of you guys, everything is total normal but it seems like I'm not suited to be friends three of us... Bye... - she put her sandalss on hastily and left.

\- I'm better to be leaving now, too – Delilah stood up.

\- Why??? – Jenny asked with being refused to believe.

\- We should talk this all thing over the three of us. Or maybe it would be really better if we'll be only in two of us. Well', I'm leaving... Bye...

\- Bye...

Delilah and Jenny separately called Lucy to talk their friendship over together, three of them, but she wasn't ready for it. Delilah had decided. She won't hinder the friendship between Jenny and Lucy. Anyway, she could find friends wherever for herself because she was the national beauty queen and the daughter of the only man in the world. She already bought the house next day, what she picked earlier for herself; at least that many people won't harass her like when it was generally known that where she lived and maybe she will be able to get herself rid of her bodyguards. But till somebody buys her house, they're going to guard it. She didn't have any word with anybody about the moving and Lucy and Jenny couldn't reach her on the phone, nor in e-mail because she changed her phone number and e-mail address. She deleted herself from the community sites, anyway, so many people writed to her that she couldn't answer them, even to half of them either.

Laurence didn't feel anything when he was driving his car on the usual way towards the house what used to be his house; he only wanted to meet with her daughter who he hadn't seen for twenty years, so he was excited. These decades, when he was frosted, was like he was only sleeping through a night and wasn't dreaming anything. Like her daughter grew up during a night and almost everybody died of his family and friends. He didn't feel any nostalgic while he was driving on the usual way, nor when he saw the huge, light gray walls, the tall, white house, the balcony's red roof, the big, dark gate and next to this, the lion statue what opened its mouth for roaring on the grassy, taller earth what was designed by buses, next to a huge tree. But it was strange that it was like Gina employed some bodyguards during this "night" because it was sure that he hadn't done it. He just started to feel then that it was already a twenty-year-later-world, where already there was no Gina, girls, who where younger than thirty, did the bodyguard's work and if he goes into the house, he won't find a four-year-old, but a twenty-four-year-old Delilah. He felt that he was missing Gina again, as much again, when he got to know what happened to her and to every other women who were over twenty-nine and to every man and boy with the exception of him.

When he had reached the gate, one of the bodyguard girls awaked him from the grievous remembrance.

\- What did you say? – he asked.

\- It's so super, seeing you in live, but you unnecessarily rang because nonbody lives in this house anymore – the bodyguard girl repeated it; she had short, black hair.

So he heard it properly: this wasn't his imagination anymore. Delilah moved house. Laurence asked the bodyguards where she moved to but theyd'dn't know it either, but they maybe would tell it to him if they knew, because in the end, everybody knew that he was her father.

\- Will't you give me an autograph? – the blondish-brown half-long haired one asked.

\- Don't you have any idea about where Delilah can be either? – the man asked while during automatically writing his name to the paper the way he did it twenty and even more years ago.

\- She hasn't said anything to us about it; she hasn't even alluded to this.

Diána called Laurence at six in the evening because she believed he surely had met with Delilah then.

\- Hi.

\- Hi! What like was the meeting.

\- It was nothing.

\- What do you mean it was nothing? – the woman was surprised at it.

\- She moved house. Will we be meeting? I don't want to be alone now after I saw my house again this way. Or my ex-hose... - Diána would be so happy sometime, during many years: her love wanted to meet with her! But now, when his personality became deformed to be so feminine because of the poison, his look was the only thing she loved. And now she had to listen to that man's girlish lamentation, who she loved so much exactly because he used to be so manly... his look... and his personality used to be in the past...

\- OK. We can meet as well now.

\- Can I go to your place? – if the poison didn't kill his attraction towards women, it was possible that people would think he didn't only want to be talking to her in the hotel room. But, that way, why not?

\- Of course.

Laurence arrived there an hour later. The receptionist also said beside what room Diána in was that she rooted for them to be dating. The man could only hope that anybody didn't think they were already dating that night, in that hotel room...

\- Hi – Diána answered the door. She was wearing a light pink top and a white skirt that reached till her knees. She had a bath yet but got dressed because felt like it wasn't the right thing to meet with Laurence in a nightdress while they hadn't been in a close relationship yet.

\- Hi.

\- Let's go into my room? Because there's no living room.

\- It's the same to me.

\- Well, there isn't anything else here to sit down to but in the kitchen beside of this...

They went into the only, small room, Diána sat down to the side of her bed, Laurence to the only armchair.

\- So how did you see the house again?

\- Everything looked the same from outside as before, it just bought the reminiscences back about Gina and other dead family members and friends of me.

Diána was feeling ashamed of his feminine sentimentalism, even instead of the man again, but she didn't revail it then.

\- Then it also came out that Delilah moved house; the bodyguards, who guard the house till somebody buys it, didn't know either where she could go – he continued.

\- I'll help you to find her. By the way, I think one of your family members can be still alive, who used to be important for you. She has had so much willpower, she was capable to do so much things but it's not sure you would see her again with so much pleasure. Maybe it's better no to speak about her anymore...

\- Montana?

\- I know it wasn't a good example what way she reached to be famous; I just think maybe she had enough willpower of live, in contrast to other women who were at least thirty years old, because she sank so deep for the fame.

\- She said it was nothing to do it...

\- Yes but maybe the only aim why she said it was to get people's attention like the reason why she did porn.

\- I'm not sure of I would like to meet with her again.

\- But twenty years pasted since than and I don't think she would do anything like this when people find her, because she's already forty years old. Because it's sure that she doesn't do anything like this now because we would know about this if she did it, and also that I'm not the only woman in the world who is over twenty-nine.

\- Rather let's not caring about Montana, at least till we find Delilah. Have you got any plan?

\- It came into my head that you should buy her house, anyway, it used to be yours, and you can surely contact her by it.

\- I also thought about this but Gina's memory would surely haunt me constantly.

When you'll love me, it wouldn't haunt you, just kiss me now so I wouldn't have to hear this unmanly whining anymore – Diána thought.

\- You can sell it after it but if you don't buy it, I don't know how you could find Delilah. I don't believe she's still on any community sites, where we could find her, if she was still there, she surely doesn't answer her messages anymore, because she became so famous that a lot of people can write her – she said.

Delilah only knew that the real estate firm could call her when her phone rang, because she only gave her new number to this. Since she moved yesterday, she was only dealing with making plans about how to furnish her new house.

\- Hi Betty!

\- Hello Delilah!

\- I already even have a purchaser??? – Delilah was surprised at it.

\- And isn't anyone!

\- Why, who is it?

\- Your father.

\- Sorry, I can't hear it because workers are pushing my pieces of my furniture. What did you say?

\- I said he it's your father.

Delilah got frightened. She didn't count on it. She didn't even know if she should to be happy or not because now he surely wanted to meet with her. She hoped Diána or someone else already changed his personality back. She didn't want to see her father to be like this. And she hadn't any friend now who she could talk about her problems with. She still didn't know anybody here.

Jenny and Lucy realized the reason why Delilah stepped out of their life, was so they would make peace with each other. She didn't want to be an obstacle between them, and she could find friends anywhere, because she was a world star. So they couldn't be on bad terms each other anymore.

\- Lucy, it's so good that we made it up with each other! – Jenny began to speak, sitting on her friend's sofa. Lucy was sitting on her armchair, with legs pulled up, too.

\- Yeah. What to do?

\- Let's be chattering! I think it's maybe a lie that Delilah's daddy only will be a man inside if he'll be a girl's boyfriend who's in love with him or inversely... Although it isn't possible inversely before it. So it's totally like a changing-back frog-prince tale! Just now it isn't the look that will change. This is ridiculous!

\- Science certified it on the basic of hormones' working. Then he'll feel that somebody's in love with him, his man hormones will come back. It automatically works that way. It's so romantic; I look forward to also see a man-woman love in live! I mean, on TV 'cause they're too famous to show up on the street too much... But it will be real, not a twenty-year old and even older movie!

\- And what about us? We're gonna never experience how it feels like to have a boyfriend???

\- You wanna become the girlfriend of Delilah's father???  
\- Who doesn't wanna??? I wanna try it out what it feels like to have a boyfriend! Only lesbians succeed in relationship in this world!

\- And when you tried it, you will be happy???

\- I don' know but I want it to know. We may fall in love with each other.

\- You like your ex-friend's father as a man???

\- He's not ugly.

\- But he could be your father!

\- So what? He could be everybody's father, except that forty-one-year-old woman. Moerover, he could be her father too 'cause the only reason why he hasn't get older since he was middle-aged, is because he was frosted!

\- So what are you will you do?! – Lucy laughed.

\- I've got a plan – Jenny smiled mysteriously.

\- And what???

\- It's a secret for the time being. You'll see.

Laurence turned off the TV, stood up from the armchair, called Diána and began walking up and down nervously in the huge caravan during it.

\- Hi.

\- Hi. When could we meet?

\- I have enough time whenever. Is there any problem?

\- You haven't seen on TV what happened?

\- I haven't watched much TV today yet.

\- And it piled up that beside it, that I'm realizing that Delilah maybe doesn't even wanna meet with me. She could ask the real estate agent for my phone number but she still hasn't ringed me. Or maybe some trouble happened to her.

\- Where should we meet?

\- I'll go for you and take you here.

If they met in the hotel room in the evening again, there was more reason to people to think that they were already already dating – Diána thought.

\- Now?

\- I'll be there about half an hour later if I'll hurry very much.

\- OK. Bye.

\- Bye.

Laurence was really hurrying as fast as he could to tell her those many, disturbing thoughts that also came into his head during driving. Maybe Delilah was angry with him because she got to know from the internet that he disowned her half-sister? It wasn't probable. Maybe she didn't want to meet with him that way that his personality got deformed to be so feminine. It surely would be scary for her. Or somebody burgled her and she had to kill her because she was at home then. In the end, he left much money to her and she also win a lot when she became the national beauty queen, and also, he had seen her appearing on some TV shows during the recent days.

He told these ideas to Diána during they were going back by the car, and because if something happened to her, it was surley told on TV, the only thing she could say to him to stroke him down, was that Laurence watched TV a lot nowadays and maybe she was waiting for his calling.

They were still talking about it in the caravan.

\- And what's that other thing that was on TV? – she asked.

\- Some girls, moreover, rather many of them demonstrated in front of the research institute 'cause they think the researchers lied when they've said my manly personality and attraction towards womankind will only return if I'll date with someone who's in love with me.

\- What could be the reason why they doubt that academics told the truth? And what's their aim? They wanna you not to only date with me?

\- While I said every girl who tried to give me the come-on that they haven't got any chance. They think some girls have and some girls haven't got the ability what they can reach with it to I'm interested towards them as women?

\- I have no idea. So do girls want to harass you again?

\- I really hope they don't because I'm fed up with them my rest of my all life. As an addition, that puts the lid on it exactly now when I have no idea about what Delilah wants, that if she wanna meet with me at all.

\- Don't be angry about it, I'm just saying it you to calm down but there are some people who have much more problems than yours. I still haven't told you a lot of things about me because I didn't want to burden you with them, and also, I'm not proud of them but I may tell you these one day.

\- Now you made me curious. By the way, if I get so near someone that a partnership starts between us, even if by interest, I think it's only honest that way if we tell the important things to each other, otherwise this relationship would be similar to when a prostitute gives bodily services to somebody, even if she doesn't sleep with him, too.

\- I see; I'll tell you when I'm ready for it.

\- Anyway, now I can't believe about anything that it would be a bigger trouble than my problems – the man said in an offended voice.

\- So I think'm better to leave now – Diána was also offended but she didn't suggest it. And Laurence didn't stop her so she set off alone in the middle of the night. Laurence didn't even take her back to the hotel.

Lucy gladly took the money over from Katy after she called her on the phone, told her that Delilah moved house, and called her to the hairdressing salon. Then it felt to her like time would be flying till the end of the work and like she also was flying home from the work.

She had arrived, decided to call Jenny on the phone to talk it over what she should spend the money for. But she was relaxing a bit in front of the TV before it. She sat down to her pale pink, flower-patterned sofa in her living-room, and turned the TV on.

\- The day before yesterday, there was a demonstration in front of the research institute because a lot of girls think it's a lie that Laurence Fishburne regains his man hormones if he will have a girlfriend who's in love with him. Here is Jenny Smith who organized the demonstration! – Vicky Dawson said in her usual show called Extraordinary Chat, and Jenny came through the door where the guest starts did. Lucy's smile frosted to her face – Hi Jenny!

\- Hi! – she smiled proudly; she apparently enjoyed appearing on TV.

\- Jenny, why do you think that the researchers lied?

\- Well, I've said to my friend that it's ridiculous, it's like it would be a tale where somebody changes a frog back to be a prince. Maybe a TV channel paid for the researchers to those girls who long for romantic nature, to watch or hear about how a real love is created in the reality, in the present, because they only can see things like this always in movies, as an addition, in twenty-year-old or even older movies, and read about this.

\- Wait! You told it to Delilah??? Because you said before the show that you two became friends.

\- I told it to my other firend.

\- And aren't you afraid of your friendship can be broken because you said these now, here, on TV?

\- I didn't say that her father also knows about the researcher's lie so I don't understand why I would say anything bad about him.

\- It's going to come out by the answer to my second question. So Jenny's going to say after the commercial what her aim is with the demonstration.

Lucy then, just commonly, didn't change channel during the commercial. This time commercials weren't what were disturbing her and she couldn't even concentrate on anything else either. Then it suddenly came into her head that then, when commercials were on TV, she could utilize the time and tell this... insensitive, lying cow how she misjudged her and that their friendship was over forever.

But she rather waited till the commercial's end, anyway, she wouldn't have enough time before the show was going to continue, and she already wanted to know everything then, about what her bestie was like.

After Jenny said in the show's continuation that her aim was exactly to have chance to be Laurence's girlfriend, because she thought others also had the right to try what it feels like to have a boyfriend, and because he was the only one who they could satisfy by their instinctual desire towards men, Lucy was totally sure in this, and also she told Jenny already that day that their friendship was over forever.

Diána hardly found the way to the hotel last night, and then hardly could fall asleep because she was so much worrying about her relationship with Laurence. Next day, at half past eleven in the morning, when she got up because of the postponed sleeping, she had noticed for the first time that she wasn't in her twenties anymore because there were so big wrinkles under her eyes. She was standing in front of the mirror motionless, was in a state of shock for long seconds what she felt like these would be minutes, then, in panic put so much foundation to her wrinkles like a plaster-work and trembled buy the tiredness and by being at the imminent of snapping, and when it came into her head that Laurence maybe didn't even want to meet with her anymore at all, her tears washed her make-up down. It was also possible that he already didn't even believe the researchers that she was that woman who he had to be in a love relationship with! She threw herself to her bed and was sobbing till her phone began ringing.

She was suddenly happy about maybe it was Laurence but he maybe wanted to meet with her. And he couldn't see her when she looked like this! Later, she realized that he was the only one who could call her because she hadn't given her number to anyone in the world for more than twenty years. Bu she didn't know what to say him.

She was still lying on her bed and crying for hours when somebody knocked on her door. She ran into the bathroom, combed and smeared further great deal of foundation under her eyes. Then it came into her head that if it was Laurence, she didn't know what to say about why she didn't answer the phone. She slowly set off towards the door tremolously, and she also opened the door that way. When she caught sight of the man, every disturbing thought left her mind because she will see him again, and she was already only feeling the attraction because of the love and was also feeling that she was embarrassed because she met with him again in person after so many years of passion with love. This one day gap when they didn't meet, changed her inside to be a teenage fan girl again, and she also looked like this now. Like they would meet for the first time.

\- Hi.

\- Hi. I'm sorry for the way I was conducting me to you when we met last time. I've called you but you didn't answer the phone.

\- I'm also sorry for saying to you that there were some people who had much bigger problems than yours.

- Do you let me in?

It came into Diána's head now to stand aside the door. They sat down to the same places as the last time when they were in the hotel together.

\- Actually, I have to thank you for you said that. It helped me since then; it only hurt my feelings happen to be then.

\- And happen to be then, I didn't think about how many people you lost. But if it helps you, I can tell you right now some of my very odd problems that I've mentioned.

\- I don't want to urge you. You've said that you don't really would like to tell them. It's enough if you tell them when you're ready for it.

\- Maybe it would be better also to me if I was over it soon. But prepare for it that these are really odd things. Maybe you won't want to meet with me anymore after I say these things.

\- It will come out.

\- So you already know that I started to love you more and more when I was twelve years old. It used to be so hard to live without you that beside I fought for you on the basis of different, by thoroughly finished plans, on the other side of the Earth, being unbeknown, without any talent, being twenty-nine years younger than you, with Hungarian mother language, being white and too poor to travel to America, I tried to replace this relationship what wasn't implemented with I used to try to write some poems about you first; later I made drawings and paintings, I made a board game about you, I used to edit photos about you and about me to be in one picture like we would be a couple; I used to make power points about these photos, I wrote a novel about what it would be like if I became your girlfriend; I made you my boyfriend in computer games and lived as your wife and our common kids' wife virtually, but these didn't really ease my grief either that I felt because of the unrequited love, more and more unbearably.

\- I didn't even know that your odd things are linked to me.

\- This is only one of these. My other qualities what also can named to be unhealthy, aren't linked to you so much.

\- It isn't so unhealthy what you would be mad from. In the end, it seems a natural reaction if a love is so unrequited like this and it isn't over. And if I knew it, I could be happy about a so young girl like you were, adored me this much.

\- But the other things are unhealthier. You also know about my shyness but you didn't know that I'm so shy like this almost with everybody about since I was born. Moereover, I only used to dare to say hello and to answer, except to my family, my best friend and some relatives, and this still continues, just now, when nobody lives of my family memebers, relatives and friends either, but you who I meet with, I'm shy with everybody, except with you. I'm afraid so much of I won't suit somebody, with what I would say or how I say some idiocy or I will conduct me on an awkwardly idiocy way or I will offend someone.

\- If you didn't think so bad things about yourself, if you had more confidence, you weren't this shy. I think you're only too modest.

\- There're something too. Since I was a teenager, I precisely keep various rules at more and more fields of my life, these are very complicated rules. I also regulate that punctually at what time to do things in my life and a so long rule-system developed to my study at home after arriving in home after school, that when I wrote it into my diaries, it took a whole page seat, as an addition, that way that I wrote with as small characters as I could so there would be enough room. The exceptions are at every fields of my life, what I haven't got any rules for these. They're noted this and my shyness down to my medical documents at the psychiatry.

\- I haven't had any such an interesting girlfriend like you – the man tried to comfort her. But Diána was only fretting herself by telling him these. What will be when she tells him the other, maybe even more unhealthy habits?!

After Laurence had arrived in home, he decided to only leave the caravan when he meets with Diána and that the only place he was going to meet her, will be the hotel room because girls could try to give him the come-on whenever on the street again. It even could be better if they thought they started dating, just let him alone!

His phone rang.

He answered it and decided that if he's called into a show, he tells that his condition to he was only going to appear in the show if they sattle that girls won't disturb him when he gets out of the car, neither during going through the corridor and getting back into his car.

\- Hi Dad!

\- Delilah???

\- Sorry for calling you this late; I considered a lot about... if I wanna talk to you in your condition too. But I've seen on TV that girls harass you again, and I have been very disappointed in one of my friend so I realized we need each other! – Delilah gabbled excitedly – It's so extraordinary that we're talking to each other after twenty years gap!

\- To me, it seems like you would grow up during a day. When they frosted me, you were four years old, and when I woke up, you become twenty-four.

\- It's also very strange but I lost you with Mom. I believed for twenty years that you died, too.

\- I'm only curious about what like adult young girl you became. But I only got to know during one day, after the ice melted from me, that everybody died who I used to know, except you. After you didn't call me back, it also came into my head that maybe already something happened to you too.

\- Why didn't people find you after the other men died?

\- The filming was in an isolated desert island for the movie's sake. But it was also possible that they intentionally wanted to keep some men's body for the posterity. I reported that I found the other frosted actor's body, maybe they buried them or frosted them again and put them into a museum. If they touched us, when we were frosted, it was risky because ice could break.

\- That's so interesting! Let's meet, and tell me about it!

\- The situation is that I don't really dare to leave the caravan since girls maybe wanna give me the come-on again, but I'm ready to do it for you.

\- OK, thanks! Where will we meet?

\- I think we're better to meet in your house so others wouldn't disturb us.

Delilah give him her address, and Laurence was there an hour later.

He told her daughter about how he lived nowadays and he also told her about Diána, about how they spent the time together and what like woman he had got to know her, but he didn't tell her about her odd habits because he thought she didn't wanted him to hand it on to anybody. The girl also told him about what it was like to be part of the national beauty contest and to also win it, to become friends with Jenny and Lucy, why she broke the friendship with them, she moved house and changed her phone number because of this, so they wouldn't reach her. Laurence told her that he was proud of he had a daughter like her, who gave her friendship with them up in their interest and who sympathized with her father when these insensitive bitches wanted to harass him. While they weren't have so immoral personality like Montana had. One of his daughters had to die, but he was happy about she wasn't Delilah.

When Laurence had arrived in home, his phone rang.

He thought he was surely called to appear in a show because Diána didn't call him and he just came home from Delilah so she wasn't calling him either.

\- Every day since I was about seven years old, I have lived like I would be the protagonist of a TV-series, and since I was a teen, I live my life that way that I imagine that it's a new episode every day, and I mostly think about that viewers, who are only watching this episode first and didn't saw the older ones, so they get to know me every day according to how I conduct me, what I'm say, what I do and what I'm do that day, how I do and say things, what I read and what I'm reading happen to be then, what I watch and what I'm watching happen to be that day, what I'm writing happen to be then, and they see and hear me almost always so I always take care sure that never to be lame in anything because I can't say inside "What a luck that didn't see it anybody" so my life is like a mix of movies named 50 first dates and The Truman show but I know just imagine this but it was so amusing to imagine it, and later I have felt that I couldn't live without this, it would be so boringly bleak. Beside this, I live that way since I was eighteen years old, that I feel it to be mine, it only doesn't come by itself, and I dare to imitate that sixteen-year-old role since I was twelve years old, only at home, and when I'm in other place, I imitate two twenty-four-year-old girls who have such styles what I like, one of them for one week, other of them for other another in moving, walking, looking and speaking. But I felt that when I would be with you, even if I just saw you in live or I talked to you on the phone or wrote to you, I didn't try, I didn't want and couldn't direct me either, and it really came true. Like when I was watching you in a movie or seeing you on a photo or watching you on YouTube and when I was watching an interview of you or was reading it. You were so kind towards me today that I thought I owed you to tell you as soon as possible, and I also wanted to be over of it sooner.

\- Wow, even I don't speak this much!

\- And am I crazy?

\- I think that your imagination about your audience is probably linked to your shyness because a many people don't know anything about you because you hardly talk to them, but you hear what they say about themselves, so it isn't your separate odd quality so you have one less quality like this at once. By the way, it's also possible that the reason why you imagine yourself to be the protagonist of a series and that you imitate various movie-roles' styles, are because you would like to be an actress in your subconscious.

\- My mom also said that it's because of my shyness and I hoped you'll say what you said after this. And something common can be between us by what you also said. That's also true that I would also disown my child if I had one and it did porn but there are a lot of common between us, beside this. The reasons why I love you, are because you have so much manly look and voice and your inward was also so much manly till twenty years ago.

\- What do you mean?

\- You gave using drugs up what needs a huge persistence as I know, also to memorize the lot of scripts; and talent and good memory are constracts of awkwardness and a man's much less manly if he's awkward, at least I think it. And when I read your interviews, I like that... I don't even know what like composition of you. Moerover, I've read that how much intelligent you are and I can't doubt it, your persistence either, and also, because I've read that you also have a degree, and for example I hardly could finish training trade school and grammar school while studied eight and half hours on average every day after school so sometimes instead of school when I was in the twelfth class. when I was a grammar school student and seven hours when I went to the eleventh class. I also forgot to tell you that my memory is so terrible like this, as an addition, I've fight very hard at every field of my life, but the results are almost opposite.

\- I think you're exaggerating, mainly because I know your confidence's degree.

\- Believe me that I'm not exaggerating; I'll tell you about it one day!

\- I'm curious to know what you exaggerate this much. But your money already will be used up too soon if we continue it. When will we meet?

\- I always have time to do it whenever.

\- I also have time now, untill I'm not called in some show.

\- Nobody has offered you any movie role either?

\- No, already for twenty years.

They were laughed.

\- It's little wonder since you were frosted. I think you 'll be called into a movie, but they haven't planned any such movie where a man also appears.

\- Maybe you're right.

\- I also love it about you that you have enough confidence.

\- But you also have big persistence. And you don't become manly by it.

They laughed.

\- Yes, it's one of my little good qualities.

\- Well, I'll go to you'r place tomorrow, at three on the afternoon.

\- OK. Bye.

\- Bye.

Next morning Laurence went to Delilah's house again, and they talked a lot again. They got well with each other, a lot more than he used to get with Montana, even before she started to do porn. They agreed with each other on they will meet systematically. It came into his head at four on the afternoon that he arranged to meet with Diána at three.

Diána just was sitting on the carpet and her tears were flowing on her face with the black eye shadow. She wasn't even seeing the point of sitting to a more comfortable place, nor doing anything. Anything didn't come into her head about why the man didn't come, but that he changed his mind, he still didn't want anything from her. But why didn't he tell it her? So maybe they killed him so he wouldn't be anybody's boyfriend if they couldn't be his girlfriend. What else could be?

A knocking from the door interrupted her desperate considering, but she didn't even move.

After the knocking continued, she decided to stand up and answer the door. She had no idea who it could be till she found herself in front of Laurence. She couldn't even begin to speak.

\- Hi. I'm sorry for coming just now but I was meeting with Delilah and we became so good friends that I forgot about time.

He only then noticed the marks of crying on her face, and by it, he became even surer of he will execute his plan – But I know how I could compensate for it. Diána tried to turn her head away when the man bent close to her. She didn't imagine that he'll do anything like this by favor. But Laurence's a bit plump lips caught Diána's thin lips, who forgot about every bad things and embraced the man while began kissing with him with letting all her delightful desire into this kiss.

When their lips separated from the other's, and they let each other go, Laurence felt like he had never seen such a beautiful face like this while the woman opened her big, brown eyes what radiated little-girlish innocence and looked up at him, slowly putting her long, blondish-brown hair to her back, then let her thin, small lips smiling. Like the eye shadow what flowed down, wasn't even there. When Laurence noticed it again, he gently wiped it with his hand, smoothed the hair from her face what adhered to it by crying, and very gently kissed her again. They embraced each other and were passionately kissing during it. Laurence didn't even remember when he felt anything like this towards anybody. And Diána had never felt like this. This was the first time in her life when she wasn't looking forward to a kiss's end, moreover, she was wishing it never would come to an end. Because at last she could be with that man who she loved. But Laurence pushed her away from himself, however it was also hard for him, but he felt like if they continued it, he won't be able to stop going on about it. It was still the first afternoon in love together, and anyway, Diána had said that she would like to wait till the wedding. He just loved her even more because of this and thought again of what a wonderful, modest, innocent creature this woman was. Moreover, now she rather semmed to be a little teen girl. And be how big variance she was of Montana morally! Both of them felt so much happiness what they had never felt.

Every channel of the world was broadcasting the wedding live but Diána just laughed inside when it came into her head that how jealous she was inside when she was watching the new English royal couple's wedding on TV at home, with her family and then the only reason why she envied them, was already because of the other newlyweds: because they found the mutual love. And then, when she also found it, she far from didn't want a sensational wedding; she already would be satisfied with a smaller ceremony, but she was still happy about her dream came true what she used to want when she was a young girl, about a beautiful, big wedding, and what the most important was: with that man who she had loved already then, by real love.

A lovely, half-caste little girl, who took after her mother and a nice, black little boy were born to Diána and Laurence. Diána's dream came true about children who were common with her love; Laurence felt more and more like he got back the people he lost, by Diána and the children. And the girls got so much romantic nature by seeing them and hearing about them, that it was enough for all of their life and they excitedly hoped that further boys will be born. The boy they had, was this man's son, who had also completey became a real man inside, already before the wedding, and he was the same as he used to be manlier than every man in the world; so balance was rectified by his son he had, in the girlish world what used to be like that till now.
