came out with tear-stained eyes to the kitchen, where he liked to do his homework, he said:
– Did Aunt Natasha show you photos from the sauna, where Sasha and her stepfather were bathing with naked schoolgirls from Sasha’s college? – Mom froze in place, not knowing what to say. Misha meanwhile continued, – Sashka threw me pictures on my Smartphone, I can show you, you want?!
Mother, like a stung roe, jumped to her son and slapped Misha over the whole flight.
Misha suddenly had sparkles in his eyes closed eyes, and in his right ear rang, and his cheek burned like fire. Misha, to be a man, courageously suffered a biting slap in the face. Mother sniffing, and not looking at her son, put on the stove to brew coffee in a Turk.
– Mom, forgive me, but I hate your sister, who torments you with her wealth, but on the very fact that she does not need her husband. I sometimes even feel sorry for her. It is a pity, not as a relative, but as an unhappy man. Still, you, like sisters, look like her, even though you and she are from different husbands of our grandmother. You are from the first marriage, and she from the second. Grandfather Anton loved you as well as his daughter, you told me that yourself, remember?
Mother, suddenly turned sharply, approached Misha, embraced and pressed her head to her breast. Misha heard the mother’s whisper through her sobs:
“You’re already quite grown up, my boy.” Thank you. And forgive me.
On the stove, hissed, spilling, coffee, filling the kitchen with its spicy smell of good and fragrant Arabica variety. Mother rushed to the stove, turned off the hotplate, extinguished with a splashed drink. I removed the Turk from the stove with the boiled coffee boiled off at half…
Misha finished the ninth grade and, having passed the exams, was successfully transferred to the tenth. He had two years left before the graduation school ball. Ahead of the holidays. With his cousin Sasha, Misha had friendly relations. And on occasion, Sasha often invited Misha to stay with him for the winter holidays. And two friends had fun these days, hanging out on closed youth clubs, having fun there, and often happened so that they appeared in the morning. Aunt Natasha scolded her son for these nocturnal festivities, to which Sasha replied: “Mom is not the time that you had with Aunt Olya.”
– You look, what clever men have grown. Hurry up, this vacation is over. I’m worried about you.
– Aunt Natasha, yes we are almost adults and we are not in some kind of gateway, but in a serious, and even closed club, where Uncle Sergei bought us two tickets.
– You know, Misha, your mom called me yesterday. And she said that now she will not let you on her summer vacation on a trip to Spain with Sasha and Uncle Sergey, but will be glad that Sasha came to you and lived with you.
– Listen to Misha, and it’s cool. Come to you in the summer.
“Aunt Natasha, is this true?” I’m all for it! Exclaimed Misha enthusiastically.
And here’s the vacation. Aunt Natasha and Sasha arrived on the morning train. Masha Misha was left to cook dinner, to meet Sasha and her mother sent her son…
The train arrived on schedule. From the car Sasha ran first. – Hi brother! – Joyfully, he ran to Misha. The brothers embraced, patting each other on the back. Aunt Natasha pulled out a heavy suitcase into the car’s vestibule and shouted to both boys: “Hey, you loafers!” Quickly to me! Take and take to the platform!
The guys quickly picked up a heavy suitcase stuffed with something and put it on the trolley of a rushed porter.
– Please, to the parking lot of the taxi, there is already waiting for the motor. – Misha commanded. The porter obediently dragged the cart in the direction indicated to the waiting car.
– Misha, you waved so much in the winter, you do not even know. – Aunt was surprised, – And I’ve brought you a whole suitcase of gifts, my mother will be interested to see what’s there. – Aunt Natasha was mysterious. Misha thought that she herself would also showcase the suitcase to her mother. Again, like last time, they’ll talk all night and fall asleep in the morning, wake up for dinner, he thought.
All together followed the porter. Sasha paid the amount of money, thanking the porter, who put the suitcase in the trunk of the “Volga” and the taxi moved from the place, gently bringing passengers to the house…
When all three climbed into the apartment where Misha and Mama lived, the hallway was filled with tasty smelling food, and a table was set in Mama’s room. But the sisters had not seen each other since the wedding of Aunt Natasha and did not hurry to appear at the table, examining the suitcase there. Their voices were enthusiastically heard from there. Masha Misha especially loudly exclaimed to each gift of her sister, both laughed, as in childhood, that Misha even muttered in displeasure, looking at Sasha: – Well, a kindergarten, we do not seem to be.
– Mishka, let me show you my girlfriend. – Said Sasha, pulling out of the jeans of the latest model Smartphone.
“Wow, this is Apple, right?” Misha said in surprise.
“You know, my stepfather gave it to me for my birthday in honor of majority.” Sixteen all the same knocked. And exactly the same thing that was bought last year, well, of course, a new one, improved, and the latest model. And I brought yours to you. – With these words, Sasha jumped up and ran into the kitchen.
The picture, which presented itself to him, was surprisingly similar to two little girls who moved here to the kitchen a sandbox from the playground with all the toys there. Only with the difference that the girls were portrayed by two adult aunts, and by toys, there were things scattered all over the kitchen from the suitcase. Seeing Sasha suddenly burst into their fascinating “game,” the women quieted, staring at the boy with their naive, childish eyes, still not realizing who was in front of them, until Sasha, in apologetic tone, asked:
– Mom, I put a Smartphone in the suitcase, a gift to Misha, where did you put it?
The eyes of Misha’s mom, and Sasha’s mom, suddenly became adults, and worried wrinkles appeared on the forehead. They scattered to look around, making efforts to look for Sasha’s gift, but the boy saw a box under the kitchen table in which the Smartphone was packed.
“There he is!” – Sasha exclaimed, – I’ll get it myself, Mom! – He exclaimed when Sasha’s mother made an attempt to crawl under the table behind the box. From this scene, Misha’s mother came to herself, remembering that the table had been laid for a long time already, and that it was time to treat guests hungry from the road.
– So, Natasha. Our mother has not been with us for a long time, so listen here! – Laughing and clapping, as the teacher in the kindergarten once clapped her hands, where their mother led the sisters, summoning the children to the dining room. – Now we throw everything as is, then we’ll clean up, go to my bedroom, there is a table, everything was cooked, you will estimate. Come on.
The guest did not say another word, rose from the floor and together they left the kitchen.
Sasha, delivering a box with a gift, rushed off to Misha’s room. There, the boys began to consider the heaped and stuffed Smartphone programs. – Of course, the one that I do not have such a modern one. Thank you, brother, that you can watch and shoot movies and movies, everything is possible.
“Yes, without any problems, you can even take home video,” Sasha complimented his gift with satisfaction, “look…” He did not finish, as Misha’s mother came into the room to the boys, saying: “Guys, Anna went to our table…
Chapter – 5.
Guests sat up until 23:00, and to send the guys to sleep their moms planned to stay to remove the dishes from the table, and of course still sit in the kitchen.
– Sasha, I made you bed in the Room, where you’ll sleep on the cot. – Mama
