My name is Vasilis Laskas. I was born in 1987 in the Balkans and studied Tourism Business Administration. I have worked in various jobs: in construction, as an electrical assistant, librarian, hotel clerk, and business manager, among others. I wrote this book to help people understand that they live in a world governed by the few, while the many should govern themselves through the technological means available to us. I dedicate this book to Panagiotis Velengas, who passed away in 2019. I also aimed to demystify, to some extent, money and those who possess it. Naturally, there is the rhetorical question: Who is rich? Isn't it the one who does not need to work for their survival? This book is a novel, a short science fiction story, that will make you see reality with different eyes. Admittedly, it will contain some syntax errors, but I did what I could.
The primary reason I wrote this book is that I wanted to tell significant lies by speaking the truth, whereas politicians often tell significant truths while essentially telling lies. This book is science fiction; it depicts the war that occurs in peacetime, from humans (sharks) to ordinary people. This book provides perspectives that can help the reader to think and not be absolute about anything. Another reason I wrote it is to diminish the power that money has over people. In the book, I explain how money finds its strength in the simplest way. I would also like to note that the book is indeed science fiction. I wanted to lessen the power money has in people's lives, which empowers the few. Therefore, I decided to offer a version that might free some, but I'm under no illusions; most will remain in the same darkness.
Chapter1
I am a Victim of My Earthly Mind
Two brothers, Leonidas and Fotis, are sitting outside in the yard. Leonidas, always playful, contrasts sharply with Fotis, who sits quietly, lost in thought due to his autism. This introspective nature renders him unable to communicate easily with the outside world. Leonidas affectionately calls him "Fytar," likening him to a plant for his silent, reactive nature. Unlike Fotis, Leonidas is extroverted, often seeking attention by teasing others.
One day, Leonidas asks Fotis, "Fytar, what are you thinking about?" Fotis begins to share a vivid imagination he harbors within his mind: He speaks of numerous alien life forms across the galaxy. One such civilization abandoned their dying planet, as it was depleting in energy reserves. They found refuge in our solar system's asteroid belt, a region abundant in energy and conducive for habitation.
These aliens are far more advanced than Earth's humans, both spiritually and technologically. They operate philosophical schools and possess unique machines that can recollect past life experiences. Their medical technology, controlling genetic abnormalities from the fetal stage, significantly prolongs their lifespans compared to humans. Fotis explains that genetic disorders among them are rare, often resulting from a lack of parental love, which impacts the genes.
In these alien societies, babies are seldom ill, having knowledge of sickness only from past life memories. However, they rarely remember all their past lives; this ability is limited to a few as they grow. In their educational institutions, extraterrestrial children do not undergo formal learning. Instead, they play, exercise, and engage in cultural research, aiding in the development of other civilizations. These aliens understand the interconnectedness of all cultures, viewing the universe as a singular entity despite sensory perceptions of separateness.
Their civilization, devoid of work as humans know it, relies on robots for food and energy needs. Their advanced technology is continuously refined, not for monetary gain but to aid lesser developed life forms. They view money as a creator of inequality and an unnecessary power in their world of abundance.
Their technology allows them to teleport to Earth through self-created wormholes, remaining unnoticed due to their superior mental abilities. They can even assume the appearance of any Earthly life form. Unbeknownst to humans, Earth is a rich energy source, untapped due to our limited technological knowledge. Alien spacecraft frequently visit Earth to replenish their energy reserves, drawn particularly to Earth's magnetic field and the charged atmosphere, which humans fail to utilize.
The most advanced among these aliens, known as Celestials, travel across galaxies to spiritually and technologically uplift other life forms. Earth, rich in energy yet technologically nascent, remains largely unaware of these cosmic interactions and the true potential of its natural resources.
"Most life forms in galaxies have survived not because they are the smartest species, but because they are effective predators. Aliens do not communicate with humans, comparing it to trying to convince lions to become vegetarians, a challenge given their centuries of evolutionary hunting instincts. Humans appear as predators to aliens, making them a dangerously unpredictable species. While aliens have interacted with ancient human civilizations, the technological advancements they provided were often misused for war and domination over other species.
In the asteroid belt lies a planet inhabited by aliens, known as Uranus. An alien named Fitar, residing in the sky, conducts research on why humans, inherently polygamous beings, behave monogamously. Despite his extensive knowledge from past lives, Fitar cannot recall his earthly existence. He uses a 4-dimensional computer in his watch, which displays a holographic screen. Requesting information on "human polygamy and its evolution into monogamy," the computer shows videos of Earth's creation from colliding asteroids, eventually forming the planet and a small moon. This 'moon', perceived by humans as a natural satellite, is actually an alien spaceship overseeing Earth.
Originally a fiery ball, Earth transformed over millennia due to meteorites carrying water, leading to the emergence of life. The first organisms appeared in water before adapting to land with the growth of plants. Eventually, a vast landmass formed, dividing into continents. The first humans arrived from the planet Oxygen in spaceships, fleeing a war between the emotionally-driven and the unconscious beings (psychopaths and narcissists). The psychopaths sought power and division, contrasting the emotionally-driven who valued independence and cooperation. This conflict led to a war that altered the democratic structure, shifting from a citizen-driven system to a politically-dominated one.
The first Earthlings from Oxygen struggled to adapt due to Earth's atmosphere. They initially used technological aids like special clothing and atmospheric filters. Over time, they lost much of their technology and genetically modified Earthlings with emotions to serve as slaves. These changes led to the human condition of aging, a new challenge for the once-immortal beings. Earth's history saw men often dominating, using women for various purposes, while in some regions, the roles were reversed. However, history, largely written by victorious emperors, often omits these details."
Female emperors were perceived as normalizing their crimes, leading to the overnight disappearance of female-led civilizations. Despite widespread ignorance, people abandoned cannibalistic practices, seeking to escape the paranoia of unjust taxation and laws. Over centuries, Earth has theoretically become more civilized, yet emperors and their descendants continue to rule. Spiritual naivety and foolishness are naturally prevalent and often rewarded on Earth, in contrast to violence, which aliens regard as senseless but Earthlings view as a mark of strength among the spiritually underdeveloped.
Fitar, a spiritually advanced alien, is moved to tears by these video depictions of Earth's tragic history, lamenting the folly of its powerful inhabitants who, despite their might, act as immaturely as children, senselessly plundering and destroying the planet. Fitar realizes that humans, though lacking advanced technology, are aware of alternative energy sources like solar, wind, water, cosmic ether, and energy from other metals like lignite. Yet, they prefer oil for its power and control, even though it harms the planet. Power dynamics dominate.
Fitar observes that Earth is rich in energy, but Earthlings, blinded by those in control, remain ignorant of this fact. He notes that any Earthling attempting to harness energy independently was eliminated, often in collusion with alien forces, as energy is the key to controlling humans through instilled fear and spiritual hypnosis. Earthlings pursue misguided, meaningless life goals, devoid of spiritual evolution, falling prey to deceptions designed to distract them from addressing humanity's real problems.
Trapped in a metaphorical labyrinth of their own making, Earthlings are ensnared by doctrines and ideologies, unable to find a way out. Fitar grieves for Earthlings' ignorance and inaction, pondering why other aliens, formerly human in past lives, don't intervene to assist their terrestrial kin. He seeks to contact an alien who was once human and understands Earthlings well.
Fitar uses his computer to search for such an extraterrestrial and discovers only two: himself and Alcet. Alcet, during his time on Earth, was a prominent scientist who contributed significantly to human scientific and technological advancement, despite opposition from his narrow-minded peers. Alcet passed away impoverished and isolated, having dedicated his life to aiding humanity. Observing Alcet's earthly endeavors, Fitar wonders why, with his advanced knowledge, he does not aid Earthlings.
Inquiring Alcet's computer, Fitar learns that Alcet is on Earth, working as a scientist developing new energy forms and technologies, and improving existing fuels for greater efficiency and minimal pollution. Fitar questions why Alcet doesn't share existing technology for universal free energy, instead of refining oil for better, less harmful use. He pinpoints Alcet's location and sends a message, requesting a meeting.

Prologue
The main reason I wrote this book is because I felt the need to share the feelings I experienced with the small and great heroes who will live when my generation and I are gone. The stories are from the lives of many people of the 1987 generation, 1900, and 1950, which changed my way of thinking. I hope they help you to know other generations and yourself. - Generations look alike, and even though they think they change and are better than others, they are almost the same because feelings don't change. The only thing that changes from generation to generation is logic, it improves, but the old always say the young are spoiled because they are no longer young. This book may be a failure for my generation, but in the future, it will be an old story that reminds us that everything can change on planet Earth, but love and passion never do, even for a moment, reminding us of 1940, 2000, or the future.
Summary
In the beginning, the book talks about the hero Alexander and the way he grows up. It talks about Alexander as a child and the social classes that do not exist in children, but adults do not learn from children and instead teach them wrong. How seriously children treat the world and games, at that moment when they play, is their life. Children only play ball for the shirt, for values and ideals. Adults do not understand children because they forget that they were once children themselves. I refer to the relationships of small children, understanding, problems, unpredictable factors. Also, I talk about the teachers we trust our children with, how they torture our children due to their lack of education or their stupidity. The strong and intense emotions that are formed in adolescence and accompany the hero throughout his life. The hero's emotions become a legacy for his future relationships. This book has pieces from the lives of many people and generations. So logically, you will find something from your own life inside, unless you have never lived because you are simply afraid."
Love
I fell in love with you at first sight.
At that moment, I went to paradise.
My life became a dream.
Your flaws are treasures to me.
Your virtues are magic.
Love is the new religion."

Chapter 1
A Sunny Day in Spring
On a sunny day in spring, two elementary schools in Athens, following the Ministry of Education's program, go on an excursion to the park in their area. On the same day and at the same time, so that the children can enjoy the beauty and liveliness of nature in spring. Also, for them to live their age and to play. Our little hero, Alexander, attends the 16th elementary school in the fourth grade, and Anna is also in the fourth grade at the 14th elementary school in Athens. At about 9:15, the children arrive at the forest according to the Ministry of Education's program, in pairs, like little soldiers.
"The teachers let the children play freely in the forest, which is full of life; the flowers have blossomed, and a beautiful greenery soothes and calms the lively children. The children from the two schools meet and quickly get to know each other and decide to play football as opponents to see who is better at the sport. Football is the most popular sport for young ages, but our little hero Alexander does not play football and does not even know the rules; instead, he likes basketball and is very good at it. However, his classmates suggest that he plays because he is fast and strong. Alexander didn’t think about it too much and accepted to play, as the other children had already arranged with the other school and he wouldn't have anything to do since all his friends are playing football. The game begins, and the children from the two schools who aren't playing gather around..."
"All around the field that the children had set up, the game starts to become more spectacular and passionate because all the other children are watching, and criticism at this age is very harsh. Therefore, the efforts from both teams to win become a matter of life and death. The field they have chosen has many traps like puddles, grass patches, small twigs, and stones. The children slip, and the ball continuously changes direction, making it difficult for them to play. Our hero, Alexander, steals the ball at one moment from the opponents, bypasses a player, and shoots powerfully but slips on some grass and falls. At this moment, he feels very uncomfortable because many of his peers are watching him, even though the shot he made was objectively very good for his age but went slightly off the goal. Just as he lifts his head, he sees..."
"For the first time in his life, Alexander sees Anna and falls in love with her at first sight. Anna's first words to Alexander are that her school will win, and they have better players than his teammates. All Alexander notices is her dazzling face and smile. He gets up and confidently tells Anna, 'We'll see about that,' and starts playing football with a new goal to win, as previously he played just for participation and not to get bored. Alexander's school starts to close the gap in the score but runs out of time to finish the game, ending with a loss of 6-5. Alexander's time to find Anna is running out as the teachers call the children to gather in pairs to leave for school. After the game, he looks for Anna but doesn't find her. Little Alexander fails to find his beloved. He wonders, 'Even if I had found her, what would I have said?' The same day, Alexander decides to play football in the afternoon at his school where he usually plays basketball every day. This time, he joins in playing football with the other children. His friends find it strange because everyone knows he loves basketball, but no one asked him why, believing he would soon give up.
Alexander starts playing football with his peers, but he isn't good initially because he only plays basketball. At first, he wasn't very good, but to get a chance to play, he settled for being a goalkeeper until he could play in the field. Day by day, gradually, he started becoming good at being a goalkeeper. Sometimes, the children let him play in defense because there were others worse than Alexander. His mother scolds him for tearing his tracksuits because he falls on the cement to block shots without a second thought. That's also a reason why he tells the children to let him play in the field, even in defense, although he doesn't know how to play that position; he improves over time. Alexander plays hard in defense and sometimes argues with other children because he plays strongly. Alexander doesn't play hard on purpose but sees professional footballers on TV fighting each other and thinks he should play the same way. After some time and many hard individual training sessions, Alexander improves his technique and becomes good in offense. Now a complete player for his age, having played goalkeeper, defense, and offense, he knows all the positions, their weaknesses, and strengths. Alexander knows how much power to use in a shot. He knows that goalkeepers can't catch low shots. Alexander knows that if you pretend to pass, the defender gets confused, making dribbling easier. He also knows that a good defender looks at the ball, not the player's body. In offense, he understands the need for imagination, which is unpredictable. After a year of hard training, Alexander learns from his school friends that there is a field near his house where the best players play. They even hold tournaments and place bets on who will win. Impressed by his friends' words, Alexander goes to the football stars' field. Although he has improved tremendously, he realizes he needs to improve more. Compared to the older children at the field, he isn't that good at football. Alexander has some problems because he is from a village, and there is subtle racism as children, like adults, fear the different. However, Alexander, although weaker than his older opponents in the field, is tough and strong for his age, facing everyone without fear. Fear doesn't exist for him, and for this reason, he becomes better day by day in football."
Alexander is self-taught in football, and his secret is that he learns from his mistakes and tries until he gets it right, thanks to his patience and persistence. Although he has become very good at football, he gets lucky when his cousin from the village, Giannis, comes to Athens. Giannis, an excellent football player, had the fortune in his village to learn from some old players who showed him how to play football, but he knew nothing about basketball. Alexander begins to show Giannis how to play basketball, the rules, techniques, and how to shoot from a distance. Giannis transfers to Alexander all the knowledge and technique he learned from the old football players who had played for the national team. After many individual training sessions, Alexander becomes a dancer with the ball, bypassing opponents as if he is dancing. He does it so beautifully that it seems like he enchants his opponents and they let him pass.
Over time and many individual training sessions, Alexander becomes stronger and improves so much that he moves beyond being good to almost perfect for his age. Initially, in the field, Alexander was not played because he was considered small and clueless, and was ignored; then he was mocked, and finally accepted. However, it took quite some time, and now everyone wants him on their team. Sometimes Alexander was late to the field where the children gathered to play, and often he wasn't played, not because he wasn't good, but because whatever team he joined would win, which would be unfair to the other team. Having learned his lesson a few times, Alexander is forced to arrive early to play football. As time goes by, Alexander becomes a legend because he doesn't lose with any team he joins. Although there are many good players, Alexander is an incredible technician, very good at shooting, aiming like a sniper, sending the ball exactly where he wants. He is also a very good defender, a complete player. Whether playing singles, doubles, penalty, or shooting, he loses nothing. Once he lost because he didn't pay attention to a player, and the goalkeeper was completely clueless. Alexander didn't pay attention, and his opponent knew he couldn't get past him and shot a goal with some luck, winning 3-2. Alexander, a little annoyed with himself for breaking his winning streak, asks to play again, plays very hard, and wins 3-0 without giving his opponent any chance to play football. After this defeat, Alexander learns that he needs to take all his opponents seriously and not be so relaxed."
Giannis, Alexander's cousin, who taught him football techniques and greatly improved him as a player, can no longer beat him. Alexander has surpassed simply being a good player and now has the psychology of a winner. Only Giannis can challenge Alexander, but even he ultimately loses with difficulty. Seeing the difference in his football skills compared to his peers and older players, Alexander seriously considers pursuing professional football. He initially tries to pass it off to his parents as good physical exercise. However, seeing their negative reaction, he explicitly states his desire to become a professional footballer and join a proper football team. Despite his talent, his parents refuse, using the excuse that they won't pay for football, only for English lessons. The cost for English is 400 euros a month, whereas for football, it's only 15 euros a month.
As a young boy finishing the 6th grade, Alexander went out to play with other children and almost forgot about it. Besides football, Alexander also played with rollerblades and skateboards. On rollerblades, Alexander never fell and had become very good, but he was not so good on the skateboard, constantly falling and hurting himself, yet he never stopped. One evening, after a typical day on the concrete field playing football, he began playing with his favorite skateboard, influenced by the movies he watches on TV. Like every youthful soul, in his attempts to perform the tricks, he fell several times, but the last fall was severe, badly breaking his arm. The pain was continuous and unbearable, so he asked a friend's father, who is a cardiologist, what to do; the cardiologist humorously replied: 'Go to a pharmacy and ask the pharmacist.' Alexander, not thinking much about it at the moment, went to the nearest pharmacy instead of going home to have his parents take him to the hospital. Luckily, a pharmacy was open nearby, and he went to ask the pharmacist. Logically, the pharmacist told him the most natural thing: to call his parents to take him to the hospital for an X-ray. The pharmacist calls Alexander's home, and his sister Elena answers. Pharmacist: 'Good evening, Alexander has hurt his hand and needs to go to the hospital.' Upon realizing what had happened, Elena quickly takes the car keys, calls their older brother Leonidas, and tells him, 'Let's go, the little one has probably broken his arm.' They go to the pharmacy and find Alexander absolutely calm, as if he hadn't broken anything.
Leonidas, Alexander's brother, drives the car and runs two red lights to get to the hospital as quickly as possible. Luckily, they don't crash despite the traffic signal violations. On the way, the older brother, Leonidas, starts teasing Alexander, telling him not to embarrass them in front of the doctors by crying, as he is now a man. Alexander simply laughs and stays silent. They arrive at the hospital and head to the emergency department, searching for a doctor. Fortunately, their sister Elena had broken her arm when she was young, so they knew the hospital procedure. After a while, they find a doctor. The doctor asks Alexander his name and whether he can move his fingers. Strangely, Alexander was able to move his hand normally, which he shouldn't have been able to do if it were broken.
The doctor takes Alexander to radiology for an X-ray and sees that his arm is broken in both bones. He observes Alexander's relaxed and calm demeanor, as if his arm wasn't broken. Impressed by Alexander's composure, since most people scream in pain with such injuries, the doctor starts to make light of Alexander's situation, joking as if nothing had happened. However, Alexander gets a little annoyed but doesn't express his feelings, as society has taught him not to show his emotions. He feels inside that he is wrong not to criticize the doctor's behavior, which is completely unprofessional. The doctor jokingly asks Alexander if he wants to leave his arm deformed, perhaps to change his mind in the future. Alexander looks at him and wonders if the doctor is foolish or just acting foolish, and of course, does not respond to the doctor. In the plaster room, the medical staff is impressed by Alexander's behavior, who, despite his age, doesn't cry at all, nor does he complain.
"This behavior is a well-structured one from a society that teaches people not to show their weaknesses or, better yet, their emotions, so as not to appear weak. Alexander has gotten used to pain in the alley from the kicks he receives because opponents can't stop him when he has the ball, so it's natural for him not to complain. However, this mental strength of not giving in is not good for Alexander, because all these accumulated unexpressed feelings will come out at some point, and then it will be more painful for him because the whole world he has built will collapse at the same moment. At home, the parents don't say anything to Alexander because he is a child, and they can't deprive him of playing. His mother, Mrs. Christina, gives him a painkiller for the pain on the first night. His father, Mr. Kostas, tells Alexander to get well soon and hopes this will be a lesson for him to be more careful next time. A week later, Alexander goes to the alley, and as usual, the children ask him what happened, how he broke it, and wish him well. Despite having a broken arm, Alexander continues to play football with the children and further improves his technique because he can no longer use his speed. Alexander is extremely fast for his age, but due to his broken arm, he relies only on technique."
Chapter 2: A New Beginning for Alexander
Like all children, Alexander finishes elementary school and starts the first year of junior high. He is concerned about the new environment and the new society he will face. It's a new beginning for him and his friends in an unfamiliar environment, with a broken arm. He realizes that he will change many societies in the future and wonders if his feelings should be so critical of the other children he will meet, knowing that he will live only a few years of his life with them before possibly never seeing them again. He thinks of school and life as a journey on a bus where strangers, who have nothing in common, are going on a trip, and this journey will eventually end because everything ends. Therefore, he decides not to be too critical of the fools that are always everywhere but to enjoy every moment as much as he can. Alexander is both happy and troubled simultaneously because the universe conspired, and Alexander and Anna are in the same class in the first year of junior high. Anna is the girl he met in the forest and the reason he gave up his favorite sport, basketball, to learn football to impress his beloved Anna. Although he became an expert in football, the paradox is that he cannot show his amazing skills to his beloved, to impress her and make her fall in love with him. One of the problems Alexander faces internally and externally is that he is from a village, which is not bad, but prejudice always exists in a society where everyone pretends not to be racist but mocks anything different. However, his experience in elementary school has toughened him because children speak their truth, the truth of their parents. He was hurt by behaviors but had the ability to evolve and become a stronger character. Knowing the way children, and therefore their parents, think and understanding the situation in a false society of values where the highest value is money and nothing else, he avoids discussing his place of origin or lies about it to escape all those old unpleasant feelings he experienced in elementary school.

Summary
God loves his two creations, Adam and Eve, very much and didn't want them to be lost after their death. Therefore, he created the world of oblivion. Millennia passed, and as he had decided, he gave them a second chance on Earth. This time, however, they would not know they were born for each other. The opportunity is given to both of them in a country that is going through hard times and resisting the darkness of man.
Vasilis was born on 14/2/1987 in the Balkans. He is a street footballer, an athlete in track events of 60 meters, 100 meters, and 200 meters. He completed his studies in Tourism Business Administration at TEI of Piraeus.
Mother
I fell in love with her, and she fell in love with me from the first moment.
I became the man of her life, the one who pained her the most.
She understands me silently at every moment.
She scorns me, yet she also suffers and always seeks my well-being.
She rejoices in my happiness and mourns in my sorrow.
When I falter, she continues for me.
She means so much to me that my words are insufficient.
If I could give her a gift, my child, I would make her
so I could learn to love her.
My name is Vasilis Laskas. I was born in 1987 in the Balkans and studied Tourism Business Administration. I have worked in various jobs: in construction, as an electrical assistant, librarian, hotel clerk, and business manager, among others. This book is dedicated to the men and women searching for their Eve or their Adam to live in paradise or hell on Earth. It is also dedicated to all the people who have loved and been loved, or are trying to find the love of their life or have found it and don't know it. This book is written from pieces of my life and the lives of many people. Love makes us forget gods and demons on Earth, even for a moment. Love takes us to a world that doesn't exist on Earth, and that's why everyone wants to be loved. Love and understanding the needs of our fellow humans make us better people.
Prologue
The main reason I wrote this book is because I wanted to share the emotions and experiences I have felt in my search for Eve from my own perspective. This book, although entertaining and fictional, carries the anxieties and unanswered questions that young people of every generation search for and face daily, struggling to find the right and wrong answers. This book offers perspectives that can help the reader think and not be absolute in anything, and not to label people even though they may have known them for a long time, because people are not what they seem to be; they can be much better or much worse, or they can simply change. Love is paradise on earth, and money is the apple that Eve eats and Adam seeks to find the apples.
Eve and Adam Again on Earth
God loves his two creations, Adam and Eve, very much and did not want them to be lost after their death, so he created the world of oblivion. Millennia passed, and as he had decided, he gave them a second chance on Earth.
This opportunity is given to both of them in a country that is going through difficult times and resists the darkness of man, Greece. Adam and Eve are born with exactly the same age difference as they were born in paradise, exactly 3 years apart. Adam is born on January 3, 1987, in Athens, in one of its poor neighborhoods. Eve is born in Chalkida on January 3, 1990. Adam and Eve live a normal life, each separately from the other. Eve has a cousin, Christiana, in Athens, who lives near Adam and coincidentally knows Adam from school. Eve, along with her sister Maria, comes to their wealthy cousin Christiana, whom they love very much, during the summers. Adam finishes high school, and because his family is struggling financially, decides to work with his father in construction, wherever they can find work. Adam and his father, Mr. Laertes, do all kinds of jobs to survive poverty and hardship. Adam's mother, Mrs. Eleni, is a cleaner, but due to arthritis, she can no longer work even though the house is sparkling clean. Mrs. Eleni, Adam's mother, contracts pneumonia and is on her deathbed. Adam's uncle, Mr. Christos, comes to see his sister, Mrs. Eleni. Uncle Christos and Mrs. Eleni start to cry together because they realize they will be separated forever. Mrs. Eleni asks her brother to convince Adam to study whatever he wants, only this she wants before she closes her eyes to go peacefully to the other world. Mr. Christos promises her that he will be a second father after Laertes. Mrs. Eleni thanks her brother with a warm hug and a kiss on the cheek, and her eyes shine with joy. Adam goes to his mother's room, greets his uncle, and asks his mother how she is; Mrs. Eleni replies that now that she has seen her son, she feels better. Adam's mother tells him her wish, that she wants him to study whatever he wants as long as he studies. Adam, knowing the family's financial situation, says, but mother, it's impossible since we barely make ends meet. Uncle Adam says he no longer needs to worry, that he will take care of all the expenses. Adam thanks his uncle but does not accept. Then the uncle says that his mother raised him because his mother died early and his father could not pay for university, so his mother helped him by cleaning houses and stairs wherever she found, so he owes her a lot. Adam thanks his uncle and says he will do it. Mrs. Eleni is radiant with happiness, and this was probably the pill that worked the miracle and made her well within a week. The doctors were impressed to see her lungs fine as if she had never been sick. Mr. Christos, Adam's uncle, is happy that his sister is saved and tells Mrs. Eleni not to worry, he has not forgotten his promise. Eve, at that time, loses her father and experiences for the first time a great loss in their life. Eve was very emotionally connected to her father, Mr. Alexandros.
Mr. Alexandros adored his two girls, Eve and Maria, and spent as much time as he could with them. Maria, Eve's sister, was more connected to their mother, Mrs. Cleopatra, than to their father, whom she loved dearly. After her father's death, Eve became much tougher on herself, and, driven by her father's dream for her to become a doctor, she studied hard and got into medical school in Alexandroupoli. At the same time, Alexandros takes his national exams and gets into the Accounting program in Zakynthos. Mrs. Cleopatra goes to Athens with Eve and Maria to visit her brother, who is a wealthy and much-loved doctor. Eve and Maria are thrilled to be with their cousin Christiana again, who loves them both dearly and considers them like sisters. To celebrate Eve's success in getting into medical school, Christiana decides to throw a party and starts calling all her friends to inform them about the party in honor of her beloved cousin on Saturday at 7 PM.
Christiana, along with Eve and Maria, goes shopping and they run into Adam with two of his friends. Eve feels a strong attraction towards Adam and asks Christiana if she knows him. Christiana replies yes, and Eve asks if she can invite him to the party. Christiana agrees but warns that Adam is poor, to which Eve responds that she's intrigued by him and wants to get to know him first. Christiana approaches Adam to invite him to the party. Adam is surprised, wondering why Christiana, who wouldn't speak to him before because of his poverty, is now inviting him to a party. Despite his reservations, Adam accepts and thanks Christiana. Adam's friends tease him, saying that Christiana's dark-haired cousin was eyeing him at the store. Adam confesses that he's fallen madly in love with the dark-haired girl and has never seen a more beautiful woman in his life. The days feel like centuries for Adam as he eagerly awaits meeting Eve again. Mrs. Eleni, noticing a change in Adam, asks him what's on his mind. Adam downplays it, mentioning he met a girl he likes and will see her again at Christiana's party. Mrs. Eleni advises him to be cautious with wealthy girls as they often don't know what they want and might just play with poor boys. Adam wants to open up to his mother about his feelings for Eve, but decides to wait until he knows her better.
Mrs. Eleni irons a suit she bought for Adam with her savings so he can look handsome at the party. An hour before the party, Adam bathes, shaves, and puts on the suit his mother bought him. Mrs. Eleni admires her only son, telling him he's grown into a man and it's time to find his Eve. Mr. Laertes, Adam's father, gives him some money to buy flowers so he won't go empty-handed. Adam buys white roses for the unknown girl in whose honor the party is being held. When he arrives and rings the doorbell, Eve and Christiana open the door. Eve's eyes light up with joy and her heart races when she sees Adam. He introduces himself as Adam, and she introduces herself as Eve. They go inside and sit together, starting a conversation about their schools.
Adam: I got into Accounting in Zakynthos. Where did you get in?
Eve: I got into Medicine in Alexandroupoli. After chatting for a while, the slightly shy Adam asks for Eve's Facebook to keep in touch. They enjoy the party as if they were the only two there, and at the end, Adam bids her goodnight with a kiss on the cheek. Returning home, Mrs. Eleni, still awake, asks how it went. Adam tells her it was exactly as he had imagined - she was dynamic and independent, and it felt like they had known each other for years. Mrs. Eleni expresses her happiness and hopes for his happiness. She asks if he got Eve's phone number, but Adam replies he only got her Facebook. Mrs. Eleni remarks on how technology has changed things, but trusts Adam's judgment. Adam bids his mother goodnight and goes to his room to send a friend request to Eve. The next day, Eve sees Adam's friend request, is happy because she loves him despite having forgotten that he is the man of her life.
