The street Hegyi Mihalyne (Mrs Michael Hill) starts at the corner of Worn's father's house and then climbs up a slope that is - though very slight one - unsusual in this flat town.
Worn's father walks by to the local store several times a week.

the cricket and the ant

Diligent and hardworking through the summer, the Ant was not a bit afraid of the harsh winter of the Huvosvolgy (Cool Valley) district of Budapest.

On the other hand the lazy Worn, after the New Year’s Eve party at his friend, spent the first day just resting, sleeping, talking, eating, hopping from glass to glass. The weather was cold, wet, dark - really unfriendly. They didn’t go out, and Worn stayed at his friend’s house for the next night, too.

It was the second day of the year, and Worn, still sleepy and having a slight hangover, walked down the snowy slope to the bus-stop at Hidegkuti ut (Cold Well Road). Waiting for the blue bus that would take him to the city, he looked around and warned himself:

“You have a brilliant new year ahead. Don’t waste it. Just look at your friends, the ants and beetles disguised as ants. Make use of your talents.”
