Replying...
Intro. Protecting someone is sometimes a simpler task than you think. You see the danger. You calculate the distance. If necessary, you can intervene. That's all. At least that's what I was taught. Emotions have no place in this. There is distance, there is discipline, there is duty. There is an invisible line between you and the person you are protecting, and that line is never crossed. I have never crossed that line for years. Until I got to know him. The day I started protecting him, I thought this would be one of the other tasks. Just another name, another face. Someone I will follow. Someone I would keep safe. But I was wrong. Because he... It attracts people's attention without realizing it. His smile is too relaxed, his gaze is too open. When he talks to people, he acts as if nothing in the world can be bad. I, on the other hand, always have to think about the bad. I walk a few steps behind him. I scan the crowds. I listen to the voices. I look for danger. And sometimes... I catch myself looking at his face. At that moment, I remind myself of the same thing. This is my job.
