Namhlanje, inyanga ezintandathu zothando lwam kunye noAndrei Sergeyevich. Waba nomusa, wandibiza ngokuthi "pimple", kuqala wandinika i-barbarrow, ke indlu, kwaye andinanto engayithethayo malunga nazo zonke iintlobo zezinto. Kuba konke oko ndandithandana nomzimba wakhe onotyebileyo, amehlo akhe kunye nentliziyo entle, ngokubanzi. Umalumekazi wayenomfazi, inzala emibini yeminyaka yam, kodwa ukuqonda kwakhe ngokupheleleyo imasiko "yee-dudes" kwakungekho ngokwaneleyo yenkosikazi. UAndrew wathi - "ucebile", kwaye kwakungeke kwenzeke ukumkholisa. Sadibana nevenkile yokudlela, apho ndahamba khona, ndaza ndaza ndavalelwa. Ngaloo mini umalume wandibiza ngomnwe onzima waza wandibuza ebunzini:
"Ngaba ufuna ukuhlala njengenkosi, inkukhu?"
- Ukutsala? - Ndabuza ngehlazo elinyanisekileyo ngelizwi lam.
- Ukuphosa! - wabubula, kwaye emva koko ndaqonda ukuba le ndoda ayizange iphose amagama emoyeni: yathi - ngendlela yobukhosi, kuya kuba njalo.
Hayi, kwaye enkulu emva kobuhlwempu bendoda, i-tweaks yeesile kunye neenxeba ezinikezelayo ukuba ibe kwigumbi lamagumbi amabini kumgangatho wamashumi amabini anesine kwindlu entsha. Isixeko sonke sisesandleni sesandla sakho, kwaye ujonge yonke into ukusuka phezulu ukuya ngaphantsi - oku, ndithi kuwe, kuluvuyo! Iinyanga kunye nesiqingatha andizange ndishiye indlu, yonke imihla, ndicinga ngokugqithiseleyo iifenitshala ezibizayo, izinto ezininzi zombane, iipatethe ezithambileyo kunye neengubo ezimnandi kwi-closet.
Ngaba le nto iyona yam? Umalume wayenomdla ngokukhawuleza, ekhangele ukuvuya kwam, kwaye, kubonakala ngathi, ukutshatyalaliswa ngumnqweno wokundimangalisa ngesisa sakhe. Kodwa emva kweenyanga ezintandathu zobomi obumnandi nabungenasiphelo, ndaqaphela utshintsho olungaqhelekanga kwihambo yomthandi wam. U-Andrew ngandlela-thile wayesuka, waba yinto engapheliyo, yaza yangena ngaphantsi, kwaye eninzi ukuhlangabezana nayo, ukuba ndilungile kwaye akukho nto ifuna enye into.
Umoya woxanduva lwabazali basekhaya lwabazali, kwaye le nto yaqinisekisa ukuba imvakalelo yakhe embi yayisesikhashana kwaye akayi kundishiya. Kodwa iintsuku zadlula, kwaye u-Andrei waqhubeka edlala indima yobawo. Le nto yayinobuncwane bayo, kuba nangona bonke ububele bakhe ndandithandana nomzimba wakhe onokuthukuthela, kodwa ngokwenene, kungekhona ngentliziyo yam, kodwa ngengqondo! Ekugqibeleni, i-alamu yaxhalabisa kangangokuthi emva kokufumana umphenyi wangasese kwiphephandaba, wavuma ukudibana kunye.
Intombazana encinci yayibonakala kuye imbonakalo yegrey eqhelekileyo, ilitye, i-twirled iifoto ze-Andrei Sergeyevich ezandleni zayo yathi:
"Ngeveki uya kuba nolwazi olupheleleyo." Ngaphambi kwentlawulo ngoku! Wabeka intonga yeebhilidi eziluhlaza, kwaye i-detective yaphela. Kwiveki kamva wayehleli phambi kwam kwaye ethetha, kwaye ngelo xesha ndaye ndagqabiza ngefolda eninzi kunye neqela leefoto kunye nolunye uhlobo lwamanqaku.
"Iindaba eziphambili kuwe kukuba into inesithole," kusho umcuphi.
"Ndandimangalisile," ndandiphazamiseka. "Ndiyayazi oko." Ndiyaxolisa, kwaye kukho ithole lakhe. Kungekudala isikhumbuzo ...
"Hayi," waphumelela, njengokungathi uvela kwizinyo zezinyo. "Akunjalo ngawe!" Ngaba ucinga ukuba ndingumthandi onobubele?
- Yeka! - yavela kum. - Ukusuka kule ndawo ngokubanzi. Ngaba u-Andrei Sergeyevich unomnye inkosikazi? Ayikwazi ...
"Ngangoko unako!" Wawunqumla. - Krasnopolskaya Venus Ivanovna, iminyaka engamashumi amabini ubudala, umfundi, umlando wexesha elizayo. Kwiveki yokugqibela esiyibonene nayo, sasisebenza amaxesha asixhenxe, oko kukuthi, imihla ngemihla. Into ithengiwe.
Ngexa ndandicinga ukuba ndiyenze ntoni ngombambano, umcuphi wamtyhola intloko yakhe waza wachaza ezinye iindaba ezimbi:
- Okunye ... Ngokumelene nesibonelelo, abasemagunyeni balungiselela ukuqaliswa kweenkqubo zobugebengu.
- Yintoni? Ndiphantse ndiwa esihlalweni sam.
- Ewe, njengesiqhelo semeko yengxowa yemali: ukufumbathisa, ukukhutshwa kweerhafu. Akukho nto engavamile ...
"Ndingathini na?" Ndacela uncedo. "Unokwenza into, akunjalo?"
- kwaye akusikho mna. Nangona kunjalo, ukuba kukho imfuno, nceda uqhagamshelane. Ndiza kukuxelela idilesi yommeli ohloniphekileyo, onobuchule bokukhusela ubutyebi obutsha. Umphenyi wenza umsebenzi ozukileyo. Ndafunda noko ndingafuni ukukwazi. "Hayi, mntakwabo, wangena enkingeni," wacinga, uhlola iifoto kwaye ufunda ikopi yamaxwebhu avela kwifolda. Ekugqibeleni ubukeka bemi emifanekisweni yentombazana enhle. "Yiloo nto uyiyo!" Kwaye mna, Venus de Milo! Kwaye ngaba abazali bakho bacinga nje? Venus Ivanovna! Kwaye ufumani ntoni kuyo, Uncle Andrey?! "Ubusuku bonke ndawutshaya, ndivuthela umsi esihlalweni, kwaye ndingeke ndikwazi ukwenza ntoni ngokulandelayo. Uxhasi lobomi obungenakunqabileyo lwaluqhekekile ezandleni zam: iofisi yomtshutshisi yatsala enye indlela, uVenusa Ivanovna - kwenye. Kwaye akusaziwa ukuba zeziphi ezimbi zimbi. Ekuseni ndaya kwi-light, ingakhanga, ndagijimela kwidilesi apho intshisekelo entsha yomthandi wam onobubele wayaphila. Intombazana yayiya esikhungweni kwaye ngasemnyango wayiphendula ukuba akazi naziphi na uAndrei Sergeevich, kunye nam - nangona kunjalo. Ndemi ngaphantsi komnyango ndilinde, xa iVenerka Ivanovna iphoqelelwe, iya kuphuma ukuya kwiziko.
Wavula ngokucophelela umnyango , ndawusunduza umlenze wangena kwaye waxwayisa:
- Mamela, wena, Ivanovna! Kufuneka uqhubeke undiphulaphule. Ngokukodwa kuba andisuye umfazi wamalumekazi, kodwa konke okuchaseneyo.
- Kuwuphi umalume? Andryusha? Watsho, waza ndahleka.
- Ngoko ke, ntombi! - ndicinga. - Ibhizinisi lethu kunye nawe - alikho ndawo. Uncle, oko kukuthi, Andryusha, ukhanyisa iminyaka elishumi ukuya kwishumi elinesihlanu. Ukugqithiswa okupheleleyo. Yena, ke, izigidi ezimbalwa zeentsuku zemvula kwindawo ethile ziya kuhlala, kodwa sikunye nawe, singabanda okanye sishushu. Sinawe kule ndawo - enye intlungu. Ngaba uyaqonda?
"Ndiyayiqonda," uVenus waphuma ngokukhawuleza.
"Ngenxa yobubele bakhe bonke, kum, ndiya kummxwayisa ngengozi." Kodwa, ngakolunye uhlangothi, ucinga ukuba ingakanani imali eya kuthathwa ngumntu? Uninzi! Ngoko ke, umsebenzi wethu ukupompoza ezinye zeziqulatho zamalumekazi, oko kukuthi, Andryusha, kwiwethu. Kwaye kukukhuselekile kuye, kwaye kuthi kuthi-kuhle! Kukhona nathi kusasa yonke impilo, iyavuma?
"Ndiyavuma," wanyusa ilizwi elifanayo, waza wabuza: "Ngoko andinalo uthando olufanayo kuAndryusha?"
"Kunene," utshilo uVenka. - Yintoni endiyenzayo?
- Okokuqala, uAndryusha akafanele azi ukuba siyazi nawe. Okwesibini, kufuneka sifike ngeenguqulelo ngokubhekiselele kwixesha elizayo elizayo siya kufuna imali enzulu. Ngokomzekelo, ndithatha isihlobo esilugulayo ukunyanga kwamanye amazwe, kwaye wena ... xelele ukuba ndikhulelwe. Nangona kunjalo! Ukukhupha isisu konke. Makhe sikwenze: wanikezelwa nge-internship kwiziko, kodwa kufuneka ubuncinci amawaka angamashumi amabini. Ngaba iya? Khangela, musa ukuzixuba! Kwawe-izihlobo ezigulayo, kuwe-ukuqeqeshwa kwe-hillock.
- Ndiyabonga. Ndiyabulela kakhulu kuwe! UVenka wancinciza, nangona iliso lam elinqamlekileyo lichongiwe ukusuka kwiminithi yokuqala: udlala intombazana elula, akayena ongenalwazi kwaye uyisiyatha, mhlawumbi akayi kudibana nomalume nantoni na.
- Ndiyabonga? Ndihleka. "Hayi, uVenus Ivanovna." Ndiyakhathalela kwenye into. Ukufumana iingcebiso ezilungileyo - uninika isiqingatha samawaka angamashumi amabini. Khumbula, kuya kufuneka uhlekiselele ngamahlaya - awunakufumana nto. Andiyithandi oku!
Kwaye ndaphonsa imifanekiso etafileni, apho iVenka kwiimeko ezingabonakaliyo zamkela umalume wethu oqhelekileyo.
"Akukho konke," walumkisa.
Waba ngumvelo okwesibini , ububi bubuhlungu amehlo akhe, kodwa wawagxotha waza wancinciza wathi: "Ewe ukuba mna ^ Akukho! Ngaba uya kundigcina? "" Kuthiwani na? "- Ndaqinisekisa umncintiswano kwaye ndamshiya i-monastery entsha. Ngomso umalume wambiza waza wathi uya kuza ngokukhawuleza. Ndagijimela kwindawo yokuhlambela, ndagubungela amehlo ngamanzi abandayo kwaye ndandizibukela kwisibuko ngoneliseke: njengokungathi ndandilalela iintsuku ezimbini ndingenakuphumla.
- Inkukhu, kwenzekani kuwe? - Uncle wambuza ngokuxhalabisa, ebona ubuso obwethukisayo nobukrakra.
- Oh, Andryushka! Ku soyika! - kwaye ndandiqhawula ngezinyembezi zokuba andinakukhala. "Ngaba ndingayithengisa le ndlu?"
- Uthetha ukuthini? - umalume wamangaliswa; Ndixelele le ngcaciso emfutshane into eyenzekayo! "
- Umntakwabo umele asebenze ngokukhawuleza phesheya, mhlawumbi le nkwenkwe ingafa. Uloyiko!
- Ingakanani? Wabuza ngaphandle kokuvakalelwa. "Ingakanani imali?"
Ndathi, "Kakade amawaka angamashumi amahlanu eedola," ndathi, kwaye intliziyo yam yema kwangoko: ngaba ndiyatshitshise umalume okanye ndithengise ngexabiso?
"Ngandlela-thile zonke kanye kanye ..." wabubula.
"Ngaba omnye umntu unentlungu?" Ndabuza, ndizenza ngathi ndingaqondi nto.
- Hayi, kunjalo nje ... Ewe, akunandaba.
Ndiza kukunika imali, inkukhu. Ungalili, ilanga! Ngomso olandelayo, ethembekileyo kwilizwi lakhe, njengegosa legazi elihle, umalume wawela endlwini yam waza wabeka izikhwebu ezinzima kwitafile. Wow!
Wathi, "Iminyaka engamashumi amathandathu ama-dollar," watsho loo nto, ehambisa imali kum.
"Andrei, kodwa ufuna amashumi amahlanu ukuba usebenze," ndathi, ndibetha amehlo.
- Oo, hamba! Wabubula. "Kuphela ukusebenza-amahlanu." Kwaye indlela, nokutya, nokuhlala ...
- Owe, andizange ndicinge, - ndadumala, ndibuza: ewe igolide!
Ngomhla ndaza ndabiza le Venka waza ndathi:
"Mamela, Miloslavskaya-Krasnopolskaya!" Unayo imali, ndiyazi. Ndilungiselele, ndiza ngoku!
Akazange avulwe umnyango kwangoko, kwaye, ndixakeka ngokukhawuleza, ndafika.
Hayi, izenzo ezimbi zeVernka okanye ababulali abaqashiweyo abazange babonwe. Wabala amawaka alishumi.
- Akufanele ube njalo! Ndingumntu ohloniphekileyo! Kwaye akunakukukhohlisa nantoni na!
"Mhlawumbi, ufuna ukuhlala ukhululekile ebomini bakho bonke," ndaqhubeka ndicinga.
"Uthini na?" Wenza icaza.
"Yaye, ndithandwa, ukuba ungabamba umalume wakho, oko kukuthi, u-Andreya wakho othandekayo, imihla ngemihla." Ngokomntu, sele ndiqokelele izinto zam nangomso ndiya kwimimandla efudumele inyanga okanye ezimbini. Kwaye ndikucebisa ukuba wenze okufanayo. Okanye ucinga ukuba abantu abayi kuza kuwe ngokufanayo?
"Ngokwenene ..." UVenus waphazamiseka. "Kodwa iziko ... Yintoni endiyenzayo?"
- Yaye, lo mhlobo, zigqibo.
Ngomso wolu suku olulandelayo, umatshini wokuphendula wefowuni kwindlu yakhe yaphendula yonke into eyoyikisayo yeVenus ngokwayo: "UVenus Krasnopolskaya kule dilesi akahlali." "O, kunye nentombazana!" Ndajamelana nomnye. Kwasala ukuphelisa ingozi yesibini, apha ngaphandle kukaAndrew, owayefuna kuphela okulungileyo, kakuhle, awukwazi ukwenza ngaphandle.
Wafika ngosuku emva kokuhamba kukaVenusa. Kubuhlungu.
- Ewe, njani isizwe sakho, unayo ipimple? Wabuza ngokubuhlungu. - Ngaba uqhutywe kuyo?
Ndathi: "Ndaxoka ngomntakwabo," ndathi. "Hlala phantsi, no-Andryusha, kufuneka sixoxe ngokukodwa."
Wathi, "Hayi,", watsho, esadabukile. "Ngoku nawe ... Yintoni emangalisayo?"
- UAndreya, ndixelele ngokunyanisekileyo: ucaphukile ngenxa yeVenus? Ndabuza.
- Uyazi njani? - Uncle wavula umlomo wakhe ngothusayo. Nam, mna! I-VIP bison! I-Edison iindawo ezixhamlayo!
"Andryusha, makhe ndikuxelele yonke into ngokufanelekileyo." Ngoko kunjalo. Le ntokazi ibiza kum kwaye inikezela ukudibana. Imelelwa ngunkosikazi yakho uVenus Krasnopolskaya. Utsho amanye amaphepha kum kwaye uthi uAndrei Sergeyevich uya kubanjwa, ndithi, ndikunike amawaka alishumi ukuba ulahleke. Njengawe, uya kuphepheka, kwaye uthi, kulula.
Kwaye ndaqonda: le ntokazi yagqiba ukukhangela kwipokoth yakho, andizange ndithathe imali kuye, kodwa yathenga iphepha. Wayenomdla, wafuna amawaka amahlanu. Ewe, ndingomnye wabangamashumi amathandathu anikezela kunyango lomntakwabo, kwaye unqanyuliwe. Apha a ba, Andryusha! Kufuneka ucinge ngako ngoku. Wuthathe amawaka akho amawaka angamahlanu amahlanu. Kuya kuba ngcono kuwo wonke umntu! Umalume wayandijonga ngenyameko, waza wathatha amaxwebhu kwaye ixesha elide waya kwisifundo. Xa engenakubona into emitsha kuyo, waqhaqhaza waza wawaphosa ngokugqithiseleyo amaphepha kwiinkunkuma.
- Inkukhu! Imicimbi edlulileyo. Andihlangani nabo, nangona ndihlala ndibophelelwe kubo. Abo bafanele bahlale kule ndawo sele behleli. Kwaye malunga neVenus, kuthetha ukuba kwenzeka ukuba wazi ^ Wena ilanga lam! Xha lekile?
- Kwaye ke! - Ndathi ndakhangela amehlo akhe. "Andizange ndikwazi ukuba ndenze ntoni!"
"Kwaye malunga nomntakwabo, kutheni ufike nale nto?"
Okokuqala, ndifuna ukukuhlola. " Ndicinga ukuba andithethi nto kuAndryusha, akayi kunceda. Kwaye xa uthetha imali, ndagqiba kwelokuba: ndiya kubasindisa umntu othandayo ngenxa yemvula-ngokukhawuleza, ndicinga ukuba, baya kundibeka ebuthongweni.
Umalume wayedla ncinane ngeemvakalelo.
Andizange ndilahle xa bengangishiyi. Ndibetha ngengqondo: "Yonke into, Venka! Sushi oars! Akukho phenduka! ". Yaye malunga nemali! Ziyeke kuwe. Ukuba kwakungekho kuwe, andizange ndikwazi oko intliziyo yowesifazane onothando. Andifuni mntu, ngaphandle kwakho! Bastards ajikeleze! Yaye uzama ukufudumala izandla zakho! Kwaye wena, chick, ingelosi! Ngomso umalume wandixelela ukuba ndimlinde ekhaya kwaye ndingayi ndawo.
"Kubalulekile, inkukhu!" Wathi. - Ndifuna kukuvuyisa. Uya kuvuya.
Ngemini sasiqhubela kwiindawo ezintle, njengengqungquthela yeendlovukazi, indlu enkulu yokunethezeka. "Le nto kuwe, inkukhu," watsho umalume waza wanginika amaphepha. Wandibamba ngesandla waza wangikhokela ngaphakathi. Kwesinye samagumbi wajonga ngapha nangapha waza wabonisa ukhuseleko olufihlekileyo emva kwekhabethe. Ndayivula, ndaza ndabona ukuba yayigcwele imali. Bangaphi na apha: ikhulu elinamakhulu amabini, anamakhulu amabini, anamakhulu mathathu? Ndiyityumbile, kwaye uAndryushenka wathi: "Kuwe, inkukhu, akukho nto kwaye akukho nto yenqatshelwe." Kwiveki kamva, uAndrei Sergeevich wabeka entolongweni. Ngoxa uphando lwaluqhubekile, amagosa ayimlondoloze umlinganiselo wokuthintela ngendlela yokubhaliswa okusikelelekileyo ukuba angashiyi ndawo, kunye nomalume ngosuku lokuqala, ngaphandle kokugqithisa, wawela phantsi entabeni. Emva kwexesha ndafumana iindaba ezivela kuye. "Ndiyaxolisa ukuba andizange ndiphulaphule icebiso lakho, inkukhu!" - wabhala. - Yonwaba. Khangela! Kidszhazhay! Okungenakwenzeka kukubona. Wakho Andrew. Mna nje xa nditshisa iileta edibanisa kwaye ndagqiba kwelokuba: Ndiya kwenza konke njengoko umalume wamcebisa!
