Jana & Alex

20

Jana and Alex had been a couple for years now, both navigating themselves together around the cliffs of adolescence, finally getting into the early twenties and moving over to college. But moving life into new paragraphs, things can change and they did. Both feel a distance between each other grow, and while Alex is focussing on his career, studying passionately and networking for contacts, Jana is retreating more and more into her shell, feeling lost and alone. A heavily rainy day, shall become the turning point of their fading relationship, and it might be coincidence or fate, that you cross their paths in the final, dramatic scene between them. You walk down the street, holding your umbrella, as you see them, together under theirs, talking. Both cry tears, and you instantly realize this is a parting scene of two people that walked the path together for quite a while. You halt, thinking about, what you might do now. Ignore them, go your way? Try to comfort them? Or at least one of them?
