Le dolophu yayifana neyona ndakhulela kuyo. Izitratato ezinqabileyo, ubuninzi bezinto eziqhambileyo ... Ekuqalekeni indawo engafanelekanga, indawo enhle. Kodwa ndazi ukuba kwakunzima kangakanani ukuhlala kwiindawo ezinjalo. Ukulala ngokungapheli njengobuthakathaka, umoya wokungabi nandaba kwinto yonke, aba bantu abangasebenziyo abanokukhathazeka kuphela ngumbuzo wendawo yokufumana enye ibhotile ye-vodka, abafazi abaxhamliweyo bajikelezwe yinkomo yezingane ezifanayo ezixakekileyo. Njalo xa ndadlula ngunxila wendawo, emlonyeni wabo ukufunga okungahlambulukanga kwavela, ndawakhumbula ubaba. Ngethuba nje ndikhumbula, wayedla.
Olunye lwezakhono zobomi bokuqala endifundayo kwiminyaka emibili edlulileyo kwakuyimfuneko yokuhlala unendawo apho ungasinda khona, ukufihla ukubetha okungapheliyo kunye nokusetyenziswa kakubi kobawo. Wayebuyela ekhaya, kwaye ndaye ndifihla phantsi kombhede. Kodwa ubawo kwaye ngaphandle kwam kwakuye kuqhuba umsindo wakhe. Umama ... Njalo kusihlwa endlwini yethu yaphela ekuhlaselweni, kwaye kusasa umama wafihla izibhamu emva kwelanga lokukhanya kwaye waya emsebenzini ... Ndaphupha. Iminqweno kuphela ayifana nabo bonke abantwana. Andizange ndiyidinga ibhasikidi, ii-chocolates okanye izicathulo ezintsha. Ndandifuna ... ukubulala uyise oyise. Kwadlula iminyaka emininzi kwaye ubaba usaphila. Ukubetha omnye wethu akayi kuba. Umama ufile. Selula. Kwaye ndashiya ekhaya xa ndingaba neshumi elinesibhozo.
Waphumelela kwisikolo somthetho yaye ngoku sele unikezelwe kule dolophu elele. Njengokugculelwa, njengesivakalisi: ukuhlala kuwe, Olesya, kwindawo enjalo yonke imihla yakho. Ndizinike unyaka ukuba ndifumane iingcebiso ezilungileyo kubalingane bam kwaye ndiphume kuloo mlambo. Ngaloo busuku, ndagqiba kwelokuba ndijonge ngokukhawuleza kunye nezinto zokwaphulo-mthetho, okuza kuqwalaselwa ngeveki ezayo. Omnye u-Igor B. ukufa, umhlobo wakhe uFedor G. ufumene ubungqina bamangqina, ukuvuma kwesityholo. Ukubulala ngokungazenzisiyo. Ndayivula le ngxaki, ndaqala ukuhamba ngeefom. Amaphepha amaninzi okubhala ayatywinwa ngokwahlukileyo. Umtyholwa uthi ikhosi yeziganeko. "NgoLwesihlanu ubusuku ndisekhaya kwaye ndalungisa isithuthuthu sam xa uFedor G. weza kumbona, wayedakiwe, ngoko ndaqalisa ukumncenga ukuba aye ekhaya. UFedor wayenomdla kakhulu kwaye wathi intombi yakhe uAnya wayengafuni ukumbona kwakhona, kodwa akazange azi ukuba kutheni. Ndazisola ngeFenka. Sahlala kwindlu esondeleyo kwaye sasingabangane ukusuka ebuntwaneni. Ngaloo ndlela sasiphupha ngendlela yokuphulukana nalo mgodi, sizama ukufunda kakuhle. Ewe, ngokucacileyo, ayiyiyo injongo.
Emva kwesikolo uFedya akazange afune umsebenzi, kwaye izandla zakhe zaqala ukuwa. Ndiza kunxila, uze kum kwaye uqale ukukhononda: "Ndiyabona ukuba ndiza kufa! Wayengenako ukuphuma apha! "Ngaloo busuku, wayebuhlungu kakhulu. Ndayazi intombi yakhe kwaye ndikholelwa ukuba ngelixa uFedka edibana noAnya, unelungelo lokuphuma kwinqanaba elibi. Waqala ukundinyanzela:
- Igor, uye ku-Anka. Uthetha naye, uthi wena ndiya kutshintsha. Uya kukukholelwa. Kwaye akafuni nokuphulaphula. Ewe, kuba ngumhlobo!
"Kodwa siya kukhangela phi ngoku?" Mhlawumbi siza kuhlaziya kude kube ngomso? Uya kuhlaziya, uhlalise kancane ...
- Ewe, e-disco. Andifuni ukuba nayiphi na into ihlehliswe! Woza!
Kwaye sahamba. Kwabonakala ngathi uFedor ngokwakhe ufuna kakhulu utshintsho ebomini bakhe. Okokuqala sahamba ngendlela ngokuthula, emva koko uFedka wema, wathabatha ibhotile yevodka ekhwameni lakhe, engayibambekanga, wayifakela kwaye wanikela yona:
"Woza, mzalwana, masiphuze."
Ndiyeke, "ndaphendula ngenyameko.
Ingcamango epheleleyo ngale phulo yaqala ukubonakala ngathi yindidi. Kodwa kwakunzima kakhulu ukubuyela ekhaya. Xa sifika, i-disco yayigcwele. UAnya wema namantombazana eludongeni waza wathetha ngento ethile.
"Hamba," uFyodor wandichukumisa. "Mlethe ngaphandle." Mxelele ndifuna ukuthetha naye. Yiza, mzalwana, kufuneka umkhombe ukuba aphume kum.
Kodwa uAnya wenqaba ukuhamba. Ukunyaniseka kwakhe kwaqondakala:
- Igor, sele ndixubushe yonke into ngeFenka. Makhendishiye ndedwa. Andikwazi ukumbona kwakhona!
Kodwa nda khumbula ukuba ndathembise umhlobo ukumnceda enze uxolo kunye nentombi yakhe.
"UAnya," ndaqala ukumchukumisa. "Ufuna ukutsho ukuba uyakuthanda kwaye oku kulungele ukuqala ubomi obutsha." Yithetha nje naye, - ndabuza, - Hayi, ubuncinane ngenxa yam.
Xa sasiya ngaphandle, uFedka wakwazi ukugqiba ibhotile ye-vodka kwaye ngoku akazange adibanise. Waxhomeka kumjelo we-drainpipe eludongeni lwebhula, wanamathela kuwo ukuze ahlale ezinyaweni zakhe kwaye angawa. UFedka wabona uEnya, wamomotheka kwaye wayesazama ukummkela. Intombazana yabuya yabuya yambheka. Kwaye ngoko ngokuqinisekileyo-kum. UFedka waqalekisa waza wasasaza izandla.
- Awukwazi ukumbamba intombazana yakho!
"Unxila!" Watsho ngokukrakra. "Ndiza kuthetha ngani nawe?"
Ndemi ngasecaleni kwabo kwaye ndingazi ukuba ndenze ntoni ngokulandelayo. UAnya wancinci wangena egcekeni waza wahlala phantsi ebhentshini.
"Igor, awukwazi ukuhamba," watsho. "Ndifuna ukuthetha nale hero kuphela yimizuzu embalwa."
Ndahamba. Nditshiza kwaye ndacinga ukuba ndiyindoda epheleleyo kwaye andiyi kuphinda ndihambe ngeFenka. Emva koko ndava ukukhala. Kwaye ndamqonda kuye ukususela kwinqanaba lokuqala. Umama wayesoloko ekhwaza ngale ndlela xa uyise onxilwayo embetha. Ndithule kakhulu, kodwa iyatshisa kakhulu. Ndandiyika kwaye ndagijimela apho ayevela khona. Yonke into yayiqhubeka njengoko iphupha. Ndabona uFedka, owasusa uAnya emhlabathini waza wambetha intombazana enyawo zakhe. Wayenobuso ... wam mama. I-Scared, ngamehlo obubanzi kunye noyiko. Negazi. Ndambona ebumnyameni. "Ungumncinci ongezantsi!" - watsho uFedka waza waxabela yonke into, wambetha ... Ngandiphawuleza ndatshwankqiswa ukumemeza ndaza ndagijima kuye. Mhlawumbi ndandifuna ukumdonsa kude no-Ani, kodwa wajika wandixabela ebusweni bonke amandla akhe. Ibhola. Ngoko ubaba wayendibetha xa ndizama ukukhusela umama. Igazi lagalelwa etempileni zam, ndaza ndaya eFenka njengento ephosa. Waqhankqalaza kuye, wanyuka, wawa phantsi. Ndaqala ukumbetha. Utata wam onxila wayemi phambi kwamehlo ami ... UFedya wayesele elele ephazamisekile emhlabathini, kwaye ndibetha kwaye andinakuyeka. UAna wavuka emhlabathini waza wamemeza esithi:
"Kwanele! Uya kumbulala! Yeka! "Ndayeka kwaye nenzondo yayibheka uFedka, owayelele phambi kwam. Wayengasaphefumli ... "
Ndivale ifowuni yecala ndaza ekhaya. Ubusuku bonke ndandidotshwa ngumfanekiso wenkwenkwe encinci, ofana nentombazana encinci, yayifihla phantsi kombhede xa utata wambetha umama, waphupha ... wambulala. Andikwazanga ukumgweba. Kuba ndaqonda kwaye ndalungisa umntakwethu, owaye wathwala umthwalo onzima gqitha wobomi bonke bam ubomi. Ngentsasa, ndacela umhlobo wam ukuba akhangele le meko kum.
Umqeshwa, emva kokuphulaphula isicelo sam, wabukela ngoko nangoko ityala kuye, kodwa wakhumbuza: - Olesya, uyaqonda ukuba ngalokhu uhambisa iphupha lakho lokudlulisa ukusuka apha ngezinye iinyanga ezintandathu. Ndingathini kumntu onenhlanhla, obonakala ukuba akukho mntu wathintela ngomunwe?
