      Action 1

      Scene 1. The perfect family!

      Darkness.

      Silence.

      A loud voice (pleasant, endearing). What do we know about the family? Perhaps all the things that it would be better not to know about… at least on yourself. But since we are all "damn lucky" with the choice of our second halves, let's at least imagine for a moment what an ideal family relationship between husband and wife might look like.

      Loud pleasant positive music sounds.

      Residential apartment.

      Disposing semi-darkness.

      Oleg enters. A pleasant gentle, fresh smile. In the hands of a large bouquet of flowers. Dressed decently.

      He takes a few steps, stops in tender anticipation.

      Nina comes out to meet Oleg. Pretty, well-groomed, "delicious" from all sides. Sees Oleg, rejoices like a puppy. Runs towards him. Hugs, kisses. Love, tenderness. The candy – bouquet period in all its glory.

      Oleg gives flowers to Nina, she accepts, admires. Tells Oleg emotionally about something (Words are not heard, everything is drowned out by the background music). Both are laughing heartily. They are happy, fresh, young at Heart and ambitious.

      Nina is all emotional, she literally clings to Oleg, beckons him, drags him along.

      Oleg, of course, is not against, but rather categorically "FOR".

      As a result, a bouquet of flowers falls out of Nina's hands, she is no longer up to flowers.

      Oleg breaks away from the passionate embrace, tries to pick up the bouquet, but Nina literally drags him away in a direction understandable to an adult viewer. And yet Oleg manages to take the flowers with him.

      Oleg and Nina are hiding.

      The music continues to play.

      A slight dimming and light again. (Preferably a different light, because we are going to beat another apartment now, however, this is not so important).

      Danil enters.

      A pleasant smile on his face, fresh, radiant and happy. In his hands is a gift that he hides behind his back. A relatively bulky box wrapped in a gift box.

      Irina comes out to meet Danil. Beautiful, fresh, tender and … just like from the picture.

      Irina takes out a pie in her hands, smiles gently at Danilo, shows a glance at the pie, they say, here… for you.

      Danil pulls out a gift from behind his back. It also shows with a glance, they say, but for you.

      Irina is delighted. Sets aside the cooked pie. He runs up to Danil. Hugs him, kisses him. Timidly accepts the gift. Cautiously looks at Danil in anticipation. He nods approvingly.

      Irina shudders emotionally, and even a little mentally, runs to open the gift as soon as possible.

      Opens out of sight, we only see how the gift wrapping flies away.

      Meanwhile, Danil approaches the pie, takes a piece, and begins to eat. Delicious. Savoring.

      A joyful Irina jumps out, screams with delight and jumps on Danil, wrapping her arms and legs around him.

      A piece of cake falls out of Danil's hand. I'm not up to pie anymore.

      Hugs. Softness. Passion.

      This is how Danil carries away Irina, delighted, bubbling with emotions.

      Positive music is CHEWED up like on old cassette recorders, stops, subsides.

      ZTM.

      Scene 2. The life of Oleg and Nina.

      A loud voice (pleasant, endearing). Well, there! Sometimes at the beginning of a relationship, something like this can be observed between lovers… But if the marriage has been going on for many years…, then it often happens about… so…

      Oleg and Nina's apartment.

      The light turns on smoothly.

      Oleg is sitting on the sofa, hastily wrapped in a blanket.

      The look is angry, sleepy.

      Her hair is tousled. There are earplugs in the ears (you can stuff more cotton wool so that it can be seen).

      Nina's heroic snoring can be heard from the next room.

      Snoring sounds, Oleg is angry. Wants to sleep, but can't, sits, waits for a lull.

      The snoring subsides and stops.

      Oleg looks hopefully in the direction of the calmed snoring.

      Trying to settle down on the couch. Closes his eyes. A blissful smile has already flowed down his face. He's finally almost falling asleep.

      But it wasn't there.

      Nina's snoring covers the sound space with a new force.

      Oleg jumps up on the couch. Angry as a dog.

      Oleg (nervously, loudly). AAAAAAAAAAAAA!

      A sleepy Nina comes running to Oleg's cry. Nina is in pajamas, her eyes are sleepy, her hair is haphazard.

      Nina (indignantly). Oleg! Why are you shouting in the middle of the night? Are you completely crazy? I'm out, I just managed to cover my eyes, I haven't even fallen asleep yet, and you broke my whole dream. What a stupid habit, yelling at night? And if I do that?

      Oleg (evil, very evil). Nina, my berry! How much I love you, you just can't imagine!!!

      Nina thinks about it… Understands.

      Nina (guessing, not immediately voicing guesses). Ya.... snoring again, huh?

      Oleg exhales with an angry growl, shakes his head affirmatively, but remains silent.

      Nina (a little guiltily). I'm sorry, you know I can't control it. And besides, you snore like a locomotive yourself, so don't blame me for everything.
