Emsebenzini, yonke into ifanele ifanele. Ndandiziva ndonwabileyo: Andizange ndixhomekeke kunoma ubani, akazange axelele nabani na kwaye akabophekanga ukuba athathe inxaxheba kwiingqungquthela zabasebenzi abathethayo. Ukususela kwangoku, ndandihlala mna! ...

Ibhizinisi lam liqale lahamba kakuhle. Kodwa ivenkile yonke le mpu melelo ingenanto. Hayi, ndatshutshiswa ngokupheleleyo.
"Mkeleke, uze kuthi ngoku ngokuqhelekileyo." Siza kwenza konke ukulungelelanisa abathengi bethu, "ndathetha ngokwam ngobuninzi, kuba ndandilungiselele okokuqala ukuba ndihlangane kuphela apha.

Yonke ubomi bakhe wayehlala kwindlu enkulu yokuhlala, waza wabuyiselwa kwakhona, kwaye u-Anna Nikolaevna wanikwa indawo apha kwiindawo zokuhlala, engazange avuyiswe ngaye ...
Kwaye wandula umsebenzi wam ngemihla ngemihla . Ekuqaleni, kwakukho iindwendwe ezimbalwa, kodwa kwakunceda kum - ngeli xesha ndifumene amava, oko ke, akunjalo, andinayo. Kwaye abantu batyula. Ndandifunde ngokuvuyela ukuba ngumthengisi-mthengisi - ukumomotheka, ubuhlobo ... Ndandiziva ukuba kubaluleke kangakanani. Ndandisoloko ndikhumbule ubuntwaneni bam: yonke intsasa ugogo wam kwaye ndaya kwisitoreji esifanayo se-milk milk apho u-Akazi Katya wayethengisa ikhefu lesonka. Ugogo wayexoxisana nomthengisi, kwaye ndakhangela kwimeko yokubonisa kwaye ndadla ishizi. Kwaye nangona kukho ezinye iindawo ezithengileyo apho kuthengiswa khona iimveliso zobisi, sahamba kuphela kumama wethu uKatya. Kwakuyimikhwa emihle. Ndandifuna ukuba ivenkile yam ibe yindawo efanayo yomphefumlo, apho kuhlala kukuhle ukuqhuba nokuthenga yonke into enobuncwane.
Kwaye ke ndandisoloko ndinexesha eliqhelekileyo. Umdlali osemdala owaziwayo obonakalisa ubuso obunobuso othe wandibiza ngokuba yi-princess kwaye ngolo lonke ixesha wayithenga into efanayo: isiqingatha sesonka saseBorodinsky kunye nebhotile yebhiya elula. Isithandane esinqabileyo: unomzimba omncinane kunye omude, onobubele obuthile emsila, uncinci kwaye unamafutha, unomhlathi omkhulu kunye nemilenze emincinci. Babesoloko bebamba izandla baze baqhekeza. Owesifazane ohlazileyo wendawo ochitha lonke unyaka kwengubo yoboya kunye nentsimbi yomlilo kunye namasimi kwaye uthetha naye. Wathenga ubisi, ngelixa wayebukeka ekhukhumele kwaye esongela.
- Lyudochka, ndiya kuhlala ndithenga yonke into kuwe . Kulungile kakhulu apha. Kwaye ukhonza ngokugqibeleleyo, "UAndrei wandixelela, umfana omncinane, omhle owayezama ngamandla ukunyamekela. Kodwa ke ndamthanda nje kuphela njengomthengi.
- Yaye amaxabiso enu ayamkelekile. Ixabiso elincinci kunokuba liphakathi, - litshilo ezininzi, kwaye ukuzingca kwandiphazamisa. Ngexesha lesidlo sasemini ndaya ehlathini ukuze ndondle i-squirrels. Kwaye konke kwakuhle kum! Njengoko bethetha, ubomi buyimpumelelo! Kodwa, maye, akukho nto ihlala phantsi kwenyanga. Kwiminyaka emibini idlula. Yaye yonwabe yonwabileyo. Ndafunda ukuba ukwakhiwa kwevenkile enkulu kuqalwe kwi-microdistrict yethu. Oku kwakuyigalelo elikhulu kum kunye ne-brainchild yami-isitoreji, apho ndandisifakile khona.
"Hayi, Lyudochka, izinto zimbi!" - UAndrei wayethetha ngokunyaniseka. - Uya kuba nomncintiswano onamandla. Ewe apho! Uya kukuchoboza ivenkile yakho encinci. Ndineziphakamiso. Phosa lo msebenzi uze utshate. Ndiyakondla ngandlela-thile.
Ngelo xesha, sasiqalisile ukudibana , kwaye sasinobudlelwane obufudumele. Nsuku zonke wafika kum ukusebenza, wazisa iintyatyambo waza wangimema ukuba nditshatile. Kodwa ngaphambi kokuba ndibe nosapho, ndandifuna ukuqina ngakumbi kwiinyawo zam.
- Akunandaba nokuba kunjalo! Kwaye andiyi kucinga ngako! Siza kubona - siza kubona. Abantu bahamba ngokukhawuleza kunye nale nkulu kwaye babuyele kum: Ndikhululekile kwaye ndonwabile ngakumbi.

Andizange ndiyazi ukuba luhlobo luni lwe-monster endiyilwa nayo. Xa ivenkile yavulwa, ukuphumelela kwam kwaphela. Andizange nditshintshe ngaphandle kukaAna Nikolaevna, Andrey kunye nobuqili, nangona yintoni umthengi! Kwafuneka ndiyenze into enokukhawuleza, kwaye ndathatha inyathelo elithembekileyo: Ndathatha enye imali mboleko kwibhanki. Yenza isikhangiso esitsha esimangalisayo. Uwandise uluhlu lwempahla yalo kwaye wanciphisa ixabiso. Yonke into yajika yaba yinto engenakulinganiswa: kwi-supermarket eyonakele yonke into yayingabizi kwaye ukhetho luyehluka. Kulapho ungathenga yonke into ngokukhawuleza: ukusuka kokutya ukuya kwi-toothbrush kunye nelinen. Ngokwemvelo, oku kukulungele kakhulu abantu. Okwangoku, ndandikweleta irente. Ama-akhawunti afika emva komnye: amanzi, ukukhanya, umnxeba. Kwaye kukho iingxowa-mboleko zokuhlawula!
Kwakuyintlekele epheleleyo kum!
- Nantsi uyabona! Yintoni endikuxelela yona? - akazange ayeke uAndreya, owayenene ngokwenene.
Wayekade elindindile ndifa, andingazi ukuba ndinceda njani, kwaye ndikhathazekile ngam.
- Kuya kuba kunjalo, kwindlela yam! Ndandicinezela ngenkani. Ngenye imini, xa uAndreya ndibona ekhaya, emnyango wangena ngokukhawuleza wambuza wathi:
"Ukuba ndithatha enye imali mboleko egameni lam ndikuncedise ishishini, uya kutshata na?"
Mna, ngenyanisekileyo, ndandicatshukiswa: ngaba wayethetha oko? Enyanisweni, umncedisi kumntu oyintanda akayithintela, kodwa ... - Kuthiwani ngomsebenzi wakho? - Ndabuza ngokudideka. U-Andrey wasebenza kwinqanaba eliqinileyo, wayenomdla kwaye wanikwa umvuzo omhle.
- Kuthiwani ngomsebenzi? Wathi ngokungakhathali. "Ukuba asiyifumananga kakuhle, ndiza kubuyiselwa ngam izandla nangeenyawo zam." Ndimele ndimncede umfazi wam intanda ebudeni bamaxesha amanzima! "Ewe, kungekhona wonke umntu onokukwazi ukwenza loo minikelo ngenxa yothando," ndacinga. "Mhlawumbi ndifanele ndivume?"
Sasitshatile, kwaye kunye sasihamba ngeesiganeko esihogweni esazange ndibe nazo. Kodwa, maye! UAndreya wayeyindoda yokurhweba engazi, kwaye ukungalingani kwakukulwa kwethu nalo monster owonayo. Ngoko, sinakho namhlanje? Ungasifumana. Thina, ewe, silahlekelwe ivenkile. UAndrei wabuyela emsebenzini wakhe omdala. Ndikho ngenyanga yesithoba yokukhulelwa. Siphila kakuhle kwaye sinovuyo. Iintengiso zentsapho zenza kwivenkile eyaziwayo. Kwaye emva kokushiya, siya ehlathini ukunyusa amaprotheni. Ngoku ndifuna umoya ophelileyo ...
Ivenkile kwakufuneka ivale. Ndashiywe kungekho msebenzi. Kodwa ebomini bam kukho indoda enothando nothando. Kwaye siyavuya!
