‘In the Midsummer evening, when I was like ten, a friend of mine and I were on an open field where a bonfire was getting ready for the night, when suddenly we saw some balls of light dancing around the bonfire. They were synchronized, dancing in circles. When we went closer, they disappeared.’ ‘Balls of light.’ ‘[Fairies] because it was Midsummer’s evening, and it’s known that fairies are usually seen that day.’ ‘I believe [fairies] exist’.
