 "Hello Pearly," said a soft, compassionate voice. It was a delicate voice he knew, even resembling his mother's voice. Pearly opened his eyes slowly. He was fainted. He remembered the fog and the sun, but he was confused. He remembered the noise of the container ship similar to a dragon. He was afraid. He was surprised to see Lili’s smiling face in front of him. He had no idea what happened to him and how they could get back together. He hugged Lili and wished to spend the rest of their journey together. She felt deeply inside her the queen of the water and breathed into the sky for her wish to reach her. She caught her eye with Lili when she realized that her breathing was coming out more than usual and spreading smoothly into the air. "You are all white," said Lili, looking at Pearly's pale expression. "You too, too," said Pearly in a low voice.
Pearly swallowed lightly when he realized that it was just one of a million snowflakes in the sky.Were they going to the land of snow from the fairy tales her mother told? His eyes searched for his friend. They held hands. In the white clear sky,they were falling towards the ground, swinging from side to side like a leaf of a tree floating in the water. They tried to close their eyes and make the lovely children in them happy."Let her name Shchila," said a cute blond boy suddenly. "I love the name Schila." "The nine-year-old girl opposite nodded. "It was beautiful, '' he said," I like the name. '' They found themselves on a snowman with a broomstick just made by these two children, with a thick carrot on their nose, an old beret, black charcoal buttons, pink wool scarf and an old at the toe. The bitter crows of starving birds came from the branches of the tree.
In a small garden, a cat and a dog were snuggling in a corner, watching the snow flakes’reaching the ground. Everything, even everything, seemed white. Pearly thought that Lili didn't complain at all about his condition. At that moment, Lili turned to himself and said,"Life is to bring happiness, even if small, from the tasks given to us Pearly!" "And the world, the life, the clouds and the sun are also aware of this.Let's be happy like these children.’’ Pearly took his friend's hand and pulled it to him and said," Thank you, my dear friend, "" Well, what do you say this cute snowman is named Schila? "" They looked at each other and laughed. The children resumed their duties without hearing any of these conversations.

Even when the darkness of the evening began to touch Schila's old beret, the snow crystals still landed on the earth, rising on top of each other without getting tired, feeding the soil beneath them, giving him joy, allowing him to prepare more vigorously for the next spring.
