About the book: 2019 / Once upon a time, I braided this girl’s hair, took her to kindergarten and bought ice cream. She was my goddaughter, a girl whom I loved like my own daughter. A beautiful little princess who always captivated me with her childish spontaneity and huge unusual eyes. At the age of five, the princess announced that she would marry me. I laughed for a long time then, saying that when she grows up I will become bald, fat and old. There will be another prince whom she will marry. Since then, as a joke, I began to call her not the princess, but my bride. If only I knew then that years later the girl’s opinion would not change... and our current meeting would bring me a huge test in which I, a grown man, would lose to a little girl.
