* 94

Each of us has a place from memory. For someone, it is a sea vacation with their parents, an old apartment on the outskirts of the city, or maybe a park near the house where you collected snails. For me, such a place still exists in the real world.

A local pastry shop where there is a taste of a childhood in the form of freshly baked flower-shaped muffins. All the most important things have not changed; the place, the taste, partly even the assortment. The main thing is that the warmth still emanates.

The local taxi driver was sitting in one of the passenger seats of his car that day, hiding under the scorching open sky. The usual story of a sunny city.

However, this person has remained an integral part of this street for several years now. His imperturbable responsibility, which allows to follow all the rules of the quarantine of a warm city, which is not yet completely accustomed to the new realities, delights. As, in fact, his dedication to his work.

Residents of Baku know a lot of people doing their job and meeting on the way almost every day. We have known some of these people for years. We see them growing, we observe the way they are doing things differently or not, sometimes this is something that shows us growing.
One of the people I grew up with seems to be a second-hand bookseller at a local store. I have known him for many years, I saw him with a huge number of people playing chess, maybe I even thought about visiting his shop once. In any case, the reflection of our growth is here in this picture.
