me outside Earth, showing me something that I carefully kept in my memory but could
not understand yet.

And now we soared in the nowhere – in the strange, real and terrifying emptiness
which differed so much from the warm and protected emptiness of the "floors". The
enormous and boundless, breathing with eternity and a little bit intimidating Space met
us with open arms, inviting us to submerge in the still unknown star world which had
attracted me for my whole life. Stella shivered and went pale. In was obvious that the
load was too huge for her.
– How did it occur to you? – I was absolutely delighted with what I saw around.

– Oh, it happened accidentally. – The girl gave a forced smile. – One day I was
very excited and probably it was my too strongly raging emotions that took me straight
there. But Gran said that I must not do that, it was still too early for me. But I think that
you can do that. Will you tell me what you find there? Promise?
I wanted to give a huge kiss to this kind girl for her open little heart who was ready
to share everything, holding nothing back, to make people feel good.
We felt very tired and, one way or another, I had to go back home, because I did

nobody understood what had, again, happened to me. My upset mother accused my
grandmother of not looking after me well, and as usual my grandmother was quiet,
taking all the blame upon herself.

The next morning I was completely all right and my relatives calmed down for
the moment. Only my grandmother continued to watch me attentively, as if she
expected something, which, certainly, did not keep her waiting long...

Vaya – other worlds
Nothing special happened for several days after my visiting the higher "floors",

except for a very unusual and brief rise in my temperature. I felt perfectly well, but
thoughts about the girl with violet eyes persistently agitated my wound-up brain which
clutched at any, even the most absurd idea, as to where and how I could find her again.
Scores of times I returned to the mental world of Earth trying to find Vaya’s world, but
it seemed we had lost it forever. My efforts were in vain. The girl had disappeared and
