She tail whipped, he would rock the boat, but in General they passed through these sobs, and that they have for each other native people. I, Pash, could with Marina to live it. Could.
- Well, remember! I said. - How many have you seen her?
Six years. And I dream every night. <...> six Months ago, remember? I called? <...> I have this day Marinka in the subway. Met, and just stood there, reading the newspaper, looked up, and she stands before me. Face Tu face. I'm not even able to say anything. She stands and cries, no sobs, nothing, just tears flow. And went out immediately. In the "Komsomolskaya - ring". Left and never looked back. <...>
Log some time walked in silence, then quietly, and even as it is a pity said:
- Well, I'm certainly trying to obstruct. Work, travel, science... But for a long time is not enough. I'm at my limit.
- Is there anything you want to do?
