Vague, eh?
Maria is a bit vague
What's going on with Maria? What is her background and why is she who she is and what she is? For her surroundings, that's really still a bit vague, even though they've known her for years.
Sometimes - or if she is honest, quite regularly - Maria herself wonders that too. Deep down, she knows the answer, but she's been hiding it for years — say decades — behind the high walls inside her. Where the memories are stored, buried in a gray past. She doesn't want to know it all anymore. She wants to keep it vague for Jan and everyone else.
However, from time to time, there is also that little voice in her. Usually that also sounds very vague in the background in her mind. But when it is there, the hair always touches quite deep. So she knows that there is something hidden deep in the vague thing that the daylight does not want to endure.
Blurred background in the picture of life
One day, she walks lonely and alone through the streets. There is nothing or no one around. On the selfie she takes, even the background is far from sharp. The vague from her mind is reflected in the photo. It echoes down the street. She still thinks to herself: how vague can you have it?
You feel good what the woman is struggling with.
