Chapter 1
Silence. Only from a distance you could hear the car horns standing in traffic, people screaming in the street, taking off planes. Actually, this could not be called peace.
That's looked every Monday morning in New York. Confusion and haste. It was also apparent in most apartments in the city center. People hurrying to work, school, kindergarten. A few were still asleep. They were, however, and some who simply love it. Get up in the morning, take the front door still hot cakes, do yourself a hot cup of coffee and eat breakfast, looking out the window at the sunny sky. Fable. Did not feel the climate when the big city, never heard a noise in the street.
It was May. A warm wind blew her hair passersby. Some walked slowly, some experts, merely avoiding the obstacles. Promised to be a beautiful day. Olivia chased the bus was approaching.

Usually wyciszała him coming here because there was no place for peace and at the same time any inventions twenty-first century. Phoned her best friend-Vicky. "Surely just quarreled with her boyfriend" Olivia thought. It was the most common topic of conversation. But this time it was about something else, much more serious ...
