It felt important, like a message, yes??? ...like something was trying to tell me something, you know??? 9amYou arrived at the office five minutes late because the trolleybus stalled near Taganskaya, and Lyudmila Semyonovna gave you a look over her glasses.She looks at me like I am a criminal for five minutes!!! If she knew what beauty exists beyond these walls she would not care so much about minutes, lol...... ЛОЛ, honestly. 1pmYou ate lunch alone again in the break room, picking at a bowl of buckwheat while two coworkers talked loudly about renovation prices.Renovation, renovation, always renovation... does no one else feel the ache of something bigger, yes??? I chew and I think of him and the grey walls do not feel so grey for one moment...... 4pmYou made a small mistake in a spreadsheet and spent forty minutes quietly fixing it before anyone noticed, your heart pounding the whole time.Stupid, stupid, careless Natalia!!! But I fixed it, nobody will ever know, lol... small victory, yes??? I will allow myself this one small victory today. 7pmYou stopped at the little shop near your building and bought a candle because the lavender was gone and you wanted some small ritual before bed.A candle is not much but it is something, you know??? Light in this grey courtyard, light in this grey life... I will light it tonight and think of him, I will...... 10pmYou sat on your bed with the candle flickering on the windowsill and wrote in your private notebook about wings and water and what it might mean.Does he send dreams like this??? Is it possible???? I half believe it, I half believe everything about him, and t 2026-10-20 7amYou woke to the alarm this time, grey light pressing against the curtains, and lay there listening to your neighbour's pipes groan before you made yourself get up.Another morning in the grey box... but the lavender is on the windowsill now, yes??? Small mercies, Natalia, small mercies...... 9amYou sat at your desk reconciling the same columns of numbers as always, while Valentin Pavlovich's radio muttered through the wall.Numbers, numbers, numbers... do they even mean anything??? Somewhere there is a wardrobe with snow behind it, I just know it, you know??? 1pmYou ate a dry little sandwich at your desk because you did not want to brave the drizzle again, and you chewed slowly to make it last longer.This bread tastes like cardboard, lol, ЛОЛ, but I pretend it is lembas or something magical, yes??? A girl can dream...... 5pmYou walked home past the metro stall again, and the old woman there recognised you and gave you a little nod before you even asked for lavender.She knows me now!!! Does that not mean something??? Like I am recognised, like I exist somewhere beyond these grey buildings, yes??? 8pmYou made tea with the last of the lavender crushed into the pot, and sat by the window watching the courtyard lights flicker on one by one.If I close my eyes I could be anywhere... Narnia, maybe, or wherever he is, watching over everything so quiet and beautiful... does he know I am waiting??? He must, surely he must...... 10pmYou lay in bed with the radiator ticking and whispered a little prayer that was not quite a prayer, more like a wish stretched thin across the dark.Tomorrow will be the same grey nothing probably, but tonight I believe, just a little, that something transcendent is wat 2026-10-19 7amYou woke up before the alarm this time, and the radiator was already clanking its sad little song, so you lay there a moment just listening to it.The pipes are alive again, yes??? Groaning like an old man who does not want to get up either... I understand you, pipe. I understand you completely. 9amYou walked to the office through a cold drizzle because the bus was late, and your good shoes got soaked through at the toes.Rain in October is just the sky being honest about how it feels, I think... Nobody else seems to notice, they just hide under their ugly umbrellas and complain, but I almost like it, you know??? It feels like something is trying to tell me a secret and I am almost close enough to hear it... 12pmYou spent your lunch break standing in line at Perekrestok buying buckwheat and a tin of sardines, and the cashier sighed heavily at you for counting out exact change.I am sorry, I am sorry, I just do not like giving away kopecks I do not have to!!! Is that a crime now??? She looked at me like I had personally ruined her day, ЛОЛ, some people have no patience for small dignities... 3pmYou were called into Valentin Pavlovich's office over a reconciliation discrepancy that turned out to be his own mistake, and he did not apologise, only grunted and waved you away.Of course it was his error, it is ALWAYS his error, but does he say sorry, Natalia, you found it, well done??? No. He just grunts like a wild boar and sends me back to my desk like I am the inconvenience... I wonder if Gabriel ever had to deal with small men like this, surely not, surely he was surrounded by people who could SEE things properly, yes??? 6pmYou stopped at the little shop by the metro again on your way home, and this time you actually bought a small bundle of dried lavender because it smelled like somewhere that was not here.It cost more than 2026-10-18 7amYou woke to the alarm this time, not before it, and the radiator was silent for once which felt almost sinister.No complaining pipes today... even the radiator has abandoned me, yes??? Everything in this flat has its own moods, I swear it, you know??? 9amYou arrived at the office five minutes late because the elevator in your building stuck between the third and fourth floor again, and you had to climb down the stairs in your good coat.Stuck between floors, like my whole life, ЛОЛ... between grey and grey, nothing above, nothing below... but I did not cry in the stairwell, that is something, yes??? 1pmYou ate your lunch at your desk instead of the stolovaya, nibbling the leftover sweet bun from yesterday while Valentin Pavlovich lectured someone else about decimal points.He has found a new victim, thank God... the bun has gone a little hard but it is still sweet, still soft inside, like something that remembers being good, you know??? 3pmYou made a small error in a spreadsheet and caught it yourself before anyone saw, and felt a strange private triumph nobody would ever know about.I fixed it myself!!! No one will ever know how close I came to disaster... but I know... I am the only witness to my own small victories, always, forever... 6pmYou stopped at the little shop by the metro again on the way home, just to look at the dried flowers through the glass, though you did not buy anything this time.Just looking is allowed, yes??? The rose from yesterday is enough for now... I must not be greedy with beauty, it should last, it should mean something, not just pile up like dust... 9pmYou sat by the window with the lamp on and your dried rose propped against it, and you wrote for a long time in your notebook about things that felt too big for the room you were in.If Gabriel could see me now, would he underst 2026-10-17 7amYou woke before the alarm this time and lay there listening to the radiator click and groan like it was complaining about the whole day ahead.Already Friday feels heavy before it even begins..... the radiator sounds like it is sighing too, yes???? we understand each other, me and this radiator...... 9amYou walked to the office through a thin cold drizzle and your umbrella turned inside out once, which you took as a personal insult from the universe.Why does the umbrella betray me specifically??? Not Lena, not Oksana, only me!!!! In Narnia the wind would never do this to a traveller, it would only ruffle your cloak dramatically...... 1pmYou spent your lunch break not at the stolovaya but walking three extra blocks to a little shop that sells dried flowers, and you bought a single dried rose wrapped in brown paper.I do not even know why I bought it!!! Something in me needed beauty today, something small and real that I can hold, you know??? Gabriel would understand this I think... he collects small sacred things too, yes???? 3pmYou got reprimanded by Valentin Pavlovich for a decimal point error that turned out, after twenty furious minutes, to be his own mistake in the original file.I wanted to say something!!! I wanted to say Valentin Pavlovich you are WRONG, but instead I just nodded like a good little grey mouse in my grey building in my grey life..... one day I will not nod, yes??? One day...... 6pmYou stopped at the bakery near the metro and bought a small sweet bun because the day deserved at least one soft thing in it.This bun is my reward for surviving!!! Small victory, yes??? Nobody gives me medals so I give myself bread with sugar on top, ЛОЛ, it is not much but it is something...... 9pmYou sat by the window with your new dried rose propped against the lamp, writing in 2026-10-16 6amYou woke to the alarm this time, not before it, and lay there for a moment resenting the ceiling for being exactly the same grey as yesterday.Another morning, another grey ceiling... does Gabriel wake up to beauty, I wonder??? Not THIS... not pipes groaning like a dying animal, you know??? 9amYou sat at your desk and reconciled the Zimin invoice for the third time this week while Valentin Pavlovich hovered behind you breathing loudly.If he breathes on my neck ONE more time I will scream!!!! This is not accounting, this is punishment for sins I do not even remember committing... lol... ЛОЛ really, what did I do in a past life??? 1pmYou went to the little stolovaya across the street for lunch and ordered the same soup as always, sitting alone by the window watching rain streak the glass.The rain is almost pretty if I squint... like Narnia weather, yes??? Grey can be mystical too, it does not HAVE to be ugly... I will believe this today... 3pmYou were asked to redo an entire quarterly report because someone above Valentin Pavlovich changed the format again without telling anyone.Four hours of work... gone... just like that!!!! Does nobody in this office RESPECT time??? Time is the only sacred thing we have and they throw it away like rubbish, you know??? 7pmYou stopped at the small grocery near your building and bought bread, milk, and a chocolate bar you did not plan on buying but needed anyway.I deserve this chocolate after today... small mercy... small comfort... I will eat it slowly tonight and pretend I am somewhere golden and warm, not THIS stairwell that smells of cabbage, yes??? 9pmYou sat by your window with the chrysanthemum from yesterday and your tea going cold, watching the 2026-10-15 7amYou woke before the alarm this time, grey light already pressing against the curtains, and lay there listening to the pipes groan in the wall.Already awake before it rings... is that a sign of something, yes??? Maybe my body is learning to wake with purpose now..... or maybe I just slept badly again. Probably the second one, if I am honest. 9amYou rode the metro to work standing the whole way, gripping the pole, watching your reflection flicker in the dark window between stations.My face in the glass looks so tired today...... but then the tunnel lights flash past and for one second it almost looks like I am somewhere else, somewhere with trees and snow that means something. Just one second though. Then it is only Moscow again, yes. 1pmYou ate lunch at your desk - kasha gone cold in its plastic container - while Valentin Pavlovich argued loudly on the phone about the Zimin invoice AGAIN.He has been shouting about three kopecks for TWO DAYS now!!! Does he not realise there are bigger things in this world than three kopecks??? I want to tell him, sir, there is beauty and meaning out there, you know??? But I just eat my kasha and say nothing, as usual. 4pmYou were sent to the archive room to find a missing folder from 2019 and spent forty minutes alone among the dusty shelves, oddly peaceful.It is quiet here, like a little church of paper..... nobody bothers me, nobody mentions kopecks. I could stay here forever I think. Lol. ЛОЛ. But also not lol, because I mean it a little bit. 7pmYou stopped at the kiosk on the way home and bought a single white chrysanthemum to replace the wilted ones on your windowsill.The old ones are drooping so sadly now, like they have given up..... this one still has some light in it though. I will put it in the same jar.
