Perhaps we all have a guardian angel.
An angel that standing next to us throughout our lives, like our shadow.
Someone who weeps with our tears and smiles with our hapiness .
Someone who defines how and when we will leave this life.

It was Saturday morning and the whole family was taking breakfast. The spring spreading to the atmosphere its unique scent and the haze gave the landscape a white - pink hue.
They were laughing and made plans for their summer vacation, when father proposed to leave this weekend for their country house. Without a second thought they began to gather their stuff and half an hour later they were almost ready.

Ariadne opened the central door of her house a breeze touched her face.
"Don't go" … . heard a voice, and she turned to see who whispered.
Nobody ...
She called her parents but didn't get any answer.She smiled, grabbed the luggage and went to the car.

One hour later they came out of the city with a spring mood. Getting out of Maryland,they approached Chesapeake Bay Bridge that would lead them in the countryside.
From the speakers the atmospheric Air of Johann Sebastian Bach gave a melancholic note on their way. She opened the window and put her head, letting the air and the sun fill her soul.

A strong side air pushed the car, the tire burst and they changed direction straight to the sea. The adrenaline was hit red and everything continued in a slow motion.
Flashes of the best moments of her life, the coffee in the air slowly spread its drip around...
Ariadne feels empty .
A moment without feelings and fear.
Emptiness.
By the time of the severe impact at the sea.

She woke up in the hospital with friends and relatives in her headrest.
Her parents didnt make it.
She had lived by a miracle.
How and why she would never learn ... but in her mind knew that the voice she had heard was saying the truth.
