Is it possible to talk about love without thinking of Cupid?

Yes it can be done.

After all, he too has now given up on love. Well yes, Cupid no longer works.

On a cloud he stays all day, undisturbed playing on the playstation, yes. Although it may seem strange, time has passed and now Cupid has grown up. He doesn't want to be working all the time, well he created an automatic system that humans call "Destiny".

"Anna, come on!"

"No, I'm not coming!" even though her friend pulled her by her arm that girl just didn't want to come.

"A loser like you, she needs a miracle," she continued, the other pulling with more force, which the poor thing could not help but accept. She was brought by her friend between laughter and opposition in front of a fountain. Up there stood the bronze statue of a shiny little cupid, ready to shoot his arrow.

"If he can't, it means there is no man for you"

"Better alone than badly accompanied."

"Don't be silly, throw a coin into this fountain and hope for a miracle for tomorrow"

The girl went to look at the bottom of the fountain. There was not the shadow of a coin in that water.

"Nobody ever did it, why do I have to start doing it?"

«Because you need a miracle. Think about it, who better than him can find you once and for all the right person? "

That girl thought about it for quite a while. She knew she was stubborn, she wouldn't give up until she did. So she opened her purse, she took the first coin she found, but her friend stopped her right away.

"Five cents? You are crazy!"

"How much does the service cost?" muttered the other.

"You can't ask for help with five cents. You're stingy! " she snorted and then handed her a two-euro coin. "We need something special."

She wondered what she could have different, but when she turned her around, she understood. It was a commemorative coin, on the back of her she had a heart hit by an arrow with the words "i love you".

She couldn't accept that she had to. Nothing so sweet, she had never done in her life, but the sweet eyes of her friend of hers, pushed her not to be able to disappoint her, and so she decided to do it.

Her coin wasn't hers, and that was the only way to leave that fountain alone and go back to their evening, because she no longer believed in love. Her heart had been broken, so many times.

She closed her eyes and turned, the coin spun accompanied by the little cackles of happiness from her friend. When the coin touched the water, something moved in the universe.
