Leaving the old bitterness behind, Roni returned to work after a few months. For the first time, his breathing felt normal. The tree in Mali that was filled with pink flowers in spring. Which taught Roni that the seasons of life change, being empty does not mean ending, but starting something new in life.

Roni sat at his office desk. A few days ago, a new colleague, Nina, joined the office. Roni met Nina as soon as he arrived at the office. Nina's sweet, calm smile stunned Roni for a moment. For a moment, Roni remembered Sameera again. There was a hidden restlessness in Sameera's smile that Roni had never noticed before. But Nina's smile was calm and lively, which stunned Roni in an instant.

Roni averted his eyes and said to himself, "No more. I have learned my lesson by loving passionately once. I will not let anyone else's emotions ruin me. From now on, I will find myself in work and start my life anew. Emotions are a dangerous trap."

Nina was a little different from everyone else. She never asked Roni personal questions and was not comfortable talking about her personal life with anyone. Nina only talked to Roni about work. Nina's behavior was not only calm, but her behavior was friendly and full of compassion. Which attracted Roni.

They would have coffee together during coffee breaks and discuss work. In this way, a friendly relationship developed between them as they talked every day. One day, when Roni wanted to hear the story of Nina's life, Nina said, "I am a very ordinary girl." There is no special story in my life, but I love to roam around in nature. Life changes as the seasons change, so I find my new life in nature.

When Nina wanted to hear Roni's life story, Roni hesitantly told about his breakup and the disappointments in his life. Nina listened attentively to his breakup and sympathized.

After a few days, Roni and Nina got the opportunity to work on the same project. Working together, their personal conversations increased. Roni noticed that Nina's presence was keeping Roni's mind calm, just like before. Roni started feeling cheerful and lively like before. Roni realized that the dry tree full of disappointment inside him was coming alive again.

One day, Roni invited Nina to his favorite park on a holiday. Roni went to that park and saw that the gardener was taking care of that tree. The tree was now full of flowers. The green nature around it refreshed his mind. Right then, Roni looked at Nina and smiled and said, "I don't know what you think, but this tree has brought a big change in my life." Then Roni told her the story of the gardener and his own disappointment. Nina listened to him and took Roni's hand and said, "Life is much like this tree. In winter, all the leaves may fall, but in spring, new flowers bloom again. That's what happened in your life too."

Roni felt as if all the sadness, all the disappointment had gone away. He saw a hint of deep love in Nina's eyes. In that moment, Roni realized that he had learned to love again, that he had learned to live again. He took Nina's hand and said softly, "You are that spring in my life." They looked at each other and smiled, and Roni felt like he had a chance to start life anew.

I would like to invite my three friends
