Make me smile

The first week of the new year had passed without noticeable incident. As was customary in the country, exactly one week after the New Year's Day, a small celebration called "Vali-rombo" is organized. Of course, this was more like an additional opportunity to celebrate and brighten up the month of January, and its celebration depends on each one, according to the desires and the means at disposal.

Tiana took as much pleasure in its preparation as that of the New Year's Eve, with the only small difference that this one is celebrated in smaller committee.

Tiana was quietly watering her flowerbeds, mentally visualizing the barbecue party to come, while Ruddy was hanging the laundry.

She abruptly broke the quietness of the garden with a harsh, almost hateful voice. Her tone was so uncharacteristically snarky that it made Ruddy break out in a cold sweat.
