Shattering Hearts

(S3): Glass shoes

Vladimir daydreamed in his office looking at the clear blue sky and watching the birds fly.

‘"If I had wings like those birds, I would be able to fly freely and carry with me my suffering and sorrow to the vast sky and spill there. I envy you, birds. You can fly freely’."

When the holiday arrived, Vladimir was cleaning his belongings back into his suitcase, and he saw a picture of Lizzie by his bedside.

‘’Lizzie, I will also take you on vacation with me,’’ Vladimir said taking a look at a photo of Lizzie, then put it in a suitcase.

Vladimir's cell phone is ringing.

"Yes Zoya, what is it?’’

"I just wanted to say goodbye to you. Have a nice trip and also good luck to your destination. During your vacation, do not worry about work problems at the office. Just enjoy your vacation. Office business leave it to me."

"thank you. Work business everything I leave to you."

"Be careful on the road, Mr Kalashnikov!"

Vladimir immediately came out of his room with a large suitcase and a backpack.

"Vladimir, are you ready to go?’’

"Yes Dad. I'm all set. Let's go later we'll miss the plane."

Vladimir, his father, and his mother had arrived at the airport and had immediately boarded the plane. They entered the VIP room of the plane.

🍀🍀🍀

After a very long journey they finally arrived at Ruzyne airport, Prague. From the airport, Vladimir headed for a villa rented by his father in the Old Town. On the way there, Vladimir was admiring the surrounding scenery, many beautiful buildings, old castles and cobbled streets from Roman times. This city already presented a beautiful scenery and captivated his heart.

An hour later they finally arrived at a luxurious 2-story villa. The courtyard was vast and filled with all sorts of flowers. Far away there is a rose garden with various colors. Vladimir wanted to go to the rose garden. In the middle of the villa yard there is a large fountain, in the middle of which there is a statue of a dolphin. The servants at the villa welcomed Vladimir and his family. He was still amazed by the villa he had just visited.

"Welcome to the villa Queena Revova, ’’ said the villa's butler.

The butler let them in and drove him to the room on the 2nd floor. The other servants brought her things.

"My Master told me to serve you well as long as you are here. If you need anything, you can tell me. I'm the butler here. My name is Aleksei Revolvski. Dinner will be held at 19:00."

"Oh thank you. If we need anything, we'll let you know."

Vladimir went into his very spacious room. A large bed, a long and soft sofa. The room overlooks the rose garden.

Vladimir went to the balcony of the room and saw a large and beautiful rose garden. He saw that someone was cleaning the garden. From the balcony of his room, Vladimir can also see the beautiful view of the mountain. The balcony is very large with a table and 4 chairs. He went back into his room and began to clean up his things. After taking a bath, Vladimir went to bed to rest for a while before dinner began.

"Why did you rent a villa of this size . Is this not excessive."

At exactly 7pm they had dinner in a very large dining room. The dining table is very long and can accommodate people eating as many as 20 people. At the table have prepared luxurious and delicious food and also served a variety of fruits.

"Why did you rent this villa. Isn't it too much?’’

"Dad likes this villa. This villa has a great view of the city."

"Who is the owner of this villa?’’

"Reiko Liebert's. He is Japanese. Her husband is German and a billionaire from Germany. His company spread throughout Europe and they had a daughter and a son, but unfortunately his daughter died, due to illness. The villa is named after her daughter if not mistakenly named Queena Liebert. What are your plans tomorrow, Vladimir?’’

"Maybe I'm going for a walk looking around this town. This city is very beautiful and many historic buildings."

"Do you want to accompany me for a walk?’’

"Ah no. Dad's not coming. I want to go to one of my old friends' houses near here, we haven't seen each other in a long time. You're the one who went for a walk."

After finishing dinner, they asked one of the servants who was here to drive them around the villa. The villa was so large and spacious that it fascinated Vladimir, and they decided to go to the living room and talk there while waiting for hours of sleep. In the living room there was a burning fireplace and a piano. In addition, the ceiling of the room has a very beautiful and good angel painting. They sat in chairs facing the fireplace. Vladimir played the piano until they finally decided to go to bed.

"Good night!’’ Vladimir.

"Good night!”nicola and Juliet.

Vladimir went into his room, went to the balcony to breathe fresh air at night. There he could see the lights of the house. The air outside is getting colder. He quickly entered the room. Before going to bed Vladimir looked at the photo of Lizzie, then kissed her.

"Good night, Lizzie!’’

Vladimir was sound asleep.

🍀🍀🍀

The next morning, Vladimir decided to take a short walk in the park. He saw a garden that was very neatly arranged and overgrown with colorful flowers. His heart was interested in going to the rose garden. The garden was surrounded by a wall of plants and inside were long swings and wooden benches. In the middle of the rose garden there is a small pond with a fountain in the middle.

‘’Excellent rose gardens. It's comfortable and quiet."

This park is fragrant with the fragrance of roses that burst all over the garden. Vladimir sat on one of the chairs in the garden

After breakfast, Vladimir went for a walk alone. Today was a bright day, although it was a little cloudy. It is a walk around the Old Town looking at old and historic buildings. The city is surrounded by historic buildings. Vladimir's attention was drawn to the Astrominical Clock. He approached her to see her more clearly. The astrominical clock was built in the 15th century. When the long needle shows the number 12, you can see a procession of the twelve apostles and the angel of death ringing the bell and you can also see the twelve signs of the zodiac at the bottom of the tower.

Vladimir was able to witness it, as it showed a procession of the twelve apostles and the angel of death ringing the bell, then continuing on again. He visited Powder Tower. The building is gothic style which is a place to store gun powder and from there can see the city of Prague from a height of 65 meters. There Vladimir saw someone he knew very well, then he approached him.

"Hello Fillipp! What are you doing here?’’

Fillipp turned around and smiled. Fillipp is an advertising star and former client of Vladimir who enlists his help to sue his step-uncle for sexually abusing his cousin's sister.

"Vladimir. We meet again here. How's it going? Are you alone?’’

"I'm good. I came here alone and didn't expect to see you here. Are you also looking at Prague from here? In view of here Prague city very beautiful city is not?’’

"I live in a villa Queena Revova, and you?’’

"I stayed at the Grand Hotel Prague. According to what I heard from the people, that villa is the best villa in the city. You are lucky to live there. Not everyone can rent the villa, because the owner will only rent it to certain people and also the villa is not a villa that is rented in general."

"really? I just found out. My dad rented that villa."

"That your father's influence is enormous."

"How is the shooting process here? Everything running smoothly?’’

"Everything went well, just took a few more scenes, after which the filming was finished. How long are you gonna stay here? If I'm maybe 4 days away."

"I'll stay here for a week. Did you not take pictures today?’’

"No. Today was not taken pictures. They request today's holiday’’

"I want to see another place. Do you want to come?’’

"alright. I'll go with you."

Then they went to Prague Castle the oldest and largest castle in the world built in the ninth century. After being satisfied to look at the historic buildings in this city they decided to go to the cafe along the Old Town Square to enjoy the afternoon and see the busy square from the – seat that is in the outdoor.

Vladimir and Phillipp are having a wonderful evening in Old Town, Prague. At night the city becomes more beautiful and romantic. He then suddenly remembered Lizzie ‘’If Lizzie had been here with me it would have been something else."

Vladimir went back to drinking his coffee with a sad face.

"What's wrong? You look sad?’’

"Ah no. Nothing,’’ Vladimir said with a forced smile.

After satisfied walking –walk, Vladimir decided to go home. In his room he opened his cell phone. He looked around to see if there was anyone for him to chat with. After looking around for a while, Vladimir finally found the person he most wanted to chat with. Name's Rose. Rose was his chatmate from a month ago, while Vladimir used the name Edena.

Lizzie was in her room on the second floor looking at her computer. Sometimes he smiled and his hands typed quickly. Not long after, he stopped typing and turned off his computer, then climbed into his bed.

"It's nice to be able to talk to him again. Every time I talk to him, I feel comfortable. Who are you, Edena? I so want to meet you,’’ said Lizzie.

Then the shadow of Vladimir's face appeared in front of him and felt tears had dripped from the corner of his eyes.

"Vladimir."

🍀🍀🍀

Vladimir hung up his phone and smiled. He felt his feelings become lighter after talking to Rose. The sadness he felt was now gone.

"Rose, you're my best chat friend. You understand my feelings and I feel comfortable talking to you, so I can freely tell you about my problems. Rose who exactly are you? I think I'm sleeping well tonight."

Before going to bed, Vladimir looked at the photo of Lizzie.

"Good night, Lizzie!’’

🍀🍀🍀

Lizzie woke up early and today plans to go for a walk in the city of Prague. It's the first time he's come here and Lizzie is excited to know the city.

Lizzie took a walk in the Old Town, then went to Strana Prague Mall, then passed by a shoe store. This shoe store is very large and has a good collection of shoes. There are a variety of shoes here.

Lizzie tried various models of shoes and had tried 20 pairs of shoes and he was confused about which shoes to buy. Finally, Lizzie decided to buy silver leather shoes.

Lizzie's eyes were then attracted by a glittering glass shoe on the table, and the glass shoes were taken and stroked.

’’Very of these shoes, only the first time I saw a shoe like this’," he said in his heart.

Lizzie is looking for a waiter the shop intends to buy these shoes.

"I want to buy these shoes?’’lizzie said

"sorry. These shoes are sold out."

"Oh. Alright."

"This shoe is a very limited stock. We only have 4 pairs of shoes, and this is the last one."

Lizzie was very disappointed when the shoes were sold out. His eyes were still on the shoes on the table until he was at the exit of the shop.

Vladimir was busy looking through sports shoes and had trouble finding a shoe that would fit him. The model is suitable, but the size does not match, and vice versa, the model does not fit but the size is suitable. After choosing shoes for an hour finally get a suitable model and size.

"I want to buy these shoes."

"Thank you."

Vladimir went back downstairs to pick up the glass shoes he bought. Many women glanced at him and whispered. He who knows it is silent and only smiles.

"Where are my glass shoes?"

"Here Sir. Are these shoes for your girlfriend?’’ask the shopkeeper.

"Yes to my boyfriend."

"Your boyfriend is very lucky to get these shoes from you."

Vladimir came out of the shop followed by the gazes of the women. He walked along the streets of the Old Town and saw lovers who looked happy. Deep down he felt envious of those who could be with loved ones. Vladimir sped up his pace and did not feel he was already on Charles Bridge.

The bridge connects the Old Town and Lesser Town which is decorated by 30 statues. Vladimir stood at the edge of the bridge and looked at the cityscape from there. Suddenly he collided with someone and made himself almost fall, then Vladimir quickly clung to the fence of the bridge. [ ]
