in the kitchen to drink some water, there was already Misha. He wore jeans and a green T-shirt, and he was busy with coffee near the gas stove with the Turk.
– Misha, hello, – appeared at the door of the kitchen, the girl said hello. “Make me a coffee.”
– Hi Lucy. Tell me, does Sofia drink coffee?
– And Sasha, Sophie, and I, we all drink coffee in the morning.
“Okay, I’ll give it all up.” There’s still a cake. You wake up there all and to the table. It’s time for us to go camping.
– Only after coffee. – Categorically with a pleasant smile said Lusya, waving to the top with his indexed finger?
By twelve o’clock in the afternoon, everyone in the kitchen had gathered for coffee and a Prague cake. Misha did not say that yesterday there was a contract to wake up at six in the morning and go out into the hilly country outside the city, where there are cozy backwaters on the river and there it would be possible to organize parking, a shish kebab, and it’s wonderful to mark the beginning of school holidays. Lusya spoke first: “Misha, you, of course, excuse me, but you have such wonderful air and so much comfort that you did not want to wake up. We had a wonderful night’s sleep and hunt out of the house.
“Listen, Lusya,” Sophia interrupted, “if you say so, and then speak for yourself.” For example, I want to go camping, with an overnight stay in a tent, to sit down at the crack of a fire, it’s so romantic and mysterious. And what shish kebabs with a smoke and how nice to get into the sleeping bag.
“Sofia, you say that as if you were already on a march.” – Said Sasha.
– You will believe, never.
– And I do not want to get out of Sasha’s bed and here again. Lucia said in a deep voice.
“So what’s the matter,” interposed Misha, we might not go that far. Here we are not far away, only through the wasteland to cross, and you will get to the abandoned half-ruined prison, where convicts who worked at the construction of the Demidov factories were kept.
– This is where we are skeleton, chained to the wall, found in the dungeon, yes?! Exclaimed Sasha. The girls were quiet. Their eyes lit up and shone with a mysterious story.
“Guys, why did not you say anything and you did not say a word to Sashka about this?” – Suddenly excitedly spoke to Lucy. – I want to go there. Will you show this place? Demanded Lusya.
The guys began to think what to say to these two chatterboxes, who, of course, will start bragging to everyone in a row, and a lot of people will pour in here.
– We need to confer. Suddenly Sasha jumped up from his seat and dragged Misha along with him. The guys went out into the corridor, tightly closing the kitchen door behind them.
“What are we going to do, Mishka?” What the girls will see – will hear the whole get-together of Yekaterinburg?
– Yes, it is true. I think that we can not escape this, so girls can not be taken there, and even more so they can show them everything there. Let’s apologize and explain this, which we played it out so that the girls are completely awake, and they wanted to go with us to nature.
“It’s settled!” Let’s go to! – Sasha, having said this, first entered the kitchen, where the girls were smoking a cigarette, dropping the ashes into a faceted glass.
– Well, what did you think up there? Asked Luce.
“Excuse us girls, we’ve made it all up.” In short, played you, so it was more interesting. – Sasha said first who entered.
– Yes, we understood it immediately. “Said Lusya”. Is Sofia true?”
– Of course. – Confirmed the girl, – We, when we were going to you to go, carefully studied the space map of Nevyansk and its environs. And except for the sagging tower on the shores of an artificial lake, which was built during the time of Demidov, there are no remains of jails nearby.
– And looked at the enlarged view, and in detail. – Lusya added.
The guys relaxed from the heart. It seemed that it was concealed after the Moscow expedition to the ruins of the prison. The space map of Nevyansk and its environs was carefully retouched, removing even a hint of the very existence of these ruins themselves. This instilled in the boys even greater interest in organizing a search expedition, but, of course, without girls, because how, no matter how it is, it’s still a man’s business…
Chapter – 6.
The whole company left the house at two o’clock in the afternoon. Guys under the weight of heavy backpacks with inventory for a picnic, girls with hand luggage. Transport was not worth using, since Misha’s house stood on the very outskirts of the city, and to the hilly countryside overgrown with grass and bushes was a stone’s throw away. It was necessary to cross the bridge across the river to the right bank. Then, with a winding path, it will go deep into the desert area, take care of the place and break up two tents. It was decided to put one more tent for the girls for the guys. The boys immediately set to work. Sasha with a hatchet went to the bushes to cut the peg for the stretchers of the tent, and Misha began to install a metal brazier and lay out charcoal in it. The girls, meanwhile, spread a blue oilcloth blanket and began to string pieces of pickled meat with tomatoes and onions on skewers. When Misha approached the girls to check how they were doing, Lusya and Sofia stared at him in surprise.
– You, th, girls? – Misha cringed, trying to understand what was wrong.
The first could not stand Lusya. Her contagious and sonorous laughter made Sofia laugh to tears. Misha finally understood, and he began to wipe his face vigorously, smearing coal dust even harder over his face. These manipulations caused hysterical laughter of girlfriends. Misha felt awkward and insulted, he was already going to leave, twisting his unhappy face, but Sofia ran up to him with a laugh. She had a handkerchief moistened with drinking water.
– Mishka, let me wash you a little. – Carefully said the girl. Began to wipe his nose, cheeks, smeared with coal cheekbones, pressing closer to the guy closer and closer. Misha suddenly grabbed the girl in his arms, pressed her to him and they began to kiss, having frozen from mutual pleasure and sympathy.
“E-e, what are you doing there, ah?!” Called Lusya. Sofia suddenly pushed Misha away and ran off to her.
“What did I tell you?” No harassment, – she began, as a teacher in the school of noble maidens. “And you told me what you promised, eh?” What kind of not filed, that you like him when you see his photo.
– Listen, Lusya, leave me alone, ah! – Frowning, and blushing, Sophia said. The girls still continued to string meat when Sasha came up to them with an armful of pegs.
– Well, how are you, girls. The Serpent did not go around here, did he? – Looking to Misha, the guy asked.
“We can stand up for ourselves.” – Said Lucia, Sofia again blushed.
Of course, Sasha saw everything and already guessed that the flushed Sophie fell in love with his brother’s ears. But it’s better to leave this topic, and he said: “I’m going to set up tents with Mishka.” There he already melted the brazier. Shish kebabs will be fried when more heat is generated. Approximately by this time, the tents will already stand, and we will cast lots, where will be, whose will be determined by the draw. Is there a girl?!
– About! Lord of tents, you, as always right! – Lusya answered with a smile. Sofia at that time stuck in a three-liter jar with pickled meat, the brush took another piece, brushing the brine in a jar, strung it over the skewer.
– Go, look, maybe there is already enough heat, and it’s time to fry shish kebab? Prompted Lusya. Sofia, silently, rose, went to the side of the
