Ends and Beginnings

17 min

This year has not been kind to strawberries. At the beginning of April it snowed. Strawberries began to bloom on the 21st. The first fruit of the year was eaten by a snail, the second by Adam, and the third appeared simultaneously with hundreds of others. The rest is a story whose heroes are not Peter and Paul, although their interference in fate makes Julia's first kiss taste especially sweet.
