СКАЧАТЬ That's it. Who wants to. I would understand if you were in your late forties. When the deadline is running out, and there is no choice. Then yes, where to go. Jump into the last carriage of the departing train and be grateful to fate for giving at least something from your lordly shoulder.

      Liza. That is, you suggest not to rush!

      Anastasia. Exactly! Watch it! Take a closer look at him, listen to your feelings… You'll see – everything will fall into place and you won't need anyone's advice, including mine. You will know everything internally and yourself very accurately.

      Liza. Let's hug one more time, Mom. I do not know what I would do without you. I love you very much!

      Anastasia. And I love you, daughter. Very.

      Yasha. Hello everyone It's good to cuddle, I'm not alone. Here, I want to introduce my friend, Demyan!

      Demyan. Hello, everyone.

      Anastasia. Hello.

      Yasha. We study in the same group. We got lost on the way and decided to come in.

      Anastasia. You did the right thing. You must be hungry. Let me feed you.

      Demyan. No, I am… Thank you, no need.

      Yasha. Come on, Demyan, don't be shy. Everyone here is their own. My mother. This is Lisa's sister. There is another sister, Katka, but she is now in another city. She left on assignment, I told you about her.

      Demyan. Understood.

      Yasha. Lisa, why are you home so early? Don't you usually come back later?

      Liza. And I have two pairs canceled. The teacher is ill.

      Yasha. Ah.. it's clear. Are you courting a guest?

      Demyan. Yes I… Yes, what…

      Liza. With pleasure…

      Demyan. Yes… well…

      Yasha. It's okay, Demyan. We'll have a quick snack now, then I'll walk you out, we'll chat some more.

      Demyan. Okay

      , Yasha. Lisa! Are you dropping ladles there?

      Liza. I accidentally dropped it.

      Yasha. Yeah… It's clear. You're looking at Demyan because you're squinting, not looking into a saucepan.

      Liza. Fool!

      Anastasia. Yasha, stop it! Why are you embarrassing the girl?

      Yasha. What am I? I'm all right.

      Anastasia. There's nothing to do here. And as you eat, chop the meat, otherwise I don't have enough strength, it hurts to get a thick bone. My father will come home from work in the evening, I want to please him with a new dish. After all, we have a date today. Twenty-five years hand in hand!

      Demyan. Oh, congratulations to you!

      Yasha. Exactly! I forgot.

      Liza. But I remember!

      Anastasia. Lizonka, but you really are busy in the kitchen for a long time. Are you getting baptized? What are you whispering about? I found the time. Feed the guys, men don't like to wait long!

      Yasha. That's for sure!

      Liza. Yes, I'm already carrying it, I'm carrying it…

      Scene 4

      Demyan. Happy holidays!

      Liza. Demyan? Hi, I didn't expect to see you here.

      Demyan. My mother asked me to take some things to a friend, and my friend, it turns out, lives a few houses away from you.

      Liza. Who is this?

      Demyan. Anna Viktorovna Subbotina.

      Liza. Ah, Aunt Nyura. Of course, I know. So she's your mom's friend?

      Demyan. Yeah.

      Liza. Clear. And you congratulated me on the holiday when we met. What kind of holiday is it today? I'm not aware, I'm sorry.

      Demyan. So today is this…

      Lisa. M?

      Demyan. The devil knows. We need to look at the calendar, what day it is. There must be something. We have some kind of holiday every day, or even two.

      Liza. Yeah! So you don't know what kind of holiday it is today, or if there is one at all?

      Demyan. Well… Frankly– yes.

      Liza. And then what did he shout – congratulations?

      Demyan. I just really wanted to talk to you. Come over, get to know each other better.

      Liza. He's smart…

      Demyan. No, I'm actually guileless. Even more straightforward. I'm talking straight to you. I know it's not the way to do it, but I don't know how to go roundabout. If I liked the girl, then I'm without hints, signs… I'm not a romantic, in a word. But, which one is already there.

      Lisa. … And what? Did you like the girl?

      Demyan. I liked it.

      Liza. How much?

      Demyan. Yes, so, you know… it's okay!

      Liza. And tell me about her?

      Demyan. And I don't know much about her myself. I know she's my friend's sister. Which is very beautiful. Charming and charming. At first glance, it catches and attracts.

      Liza. Oh, and you said that you're not a romantic, that you don't know how to go roundabout. You can do everything! You can do anything! But he didn't say it head-on.

      Demyan. Should I?

      Liza. And why not? What are you risking?

      Demyan. It's just that suddenly this girl didn't like me.

      Liza. What if you liked it?

      Demyan. Hmm… So that's a completely different matter then. So, I say it head-on, Lisa, you're my…

      Sergei. Hi, Liz! It's good to see you. Good afternoon, Sergey, let's get to know each other.

      Demyan. I'm Demyan, we will!

      Sergei. I haven't seen you for a long time, girlfriend. Is everything okay, are you sick?

      Liza. Seryozha, everything is fine, don't worry. I was busy.

      Sergey. A. And I'm from you. I came to check on you, Aunt Nastya said that you went to the store.

      Liza. Yes, that's right. I haven't reached it yet, so I met a friend.

      Sergei. Understood. Then maybe we can go together? I need to go to the store too. The bread at home has dried up completely, damn it, only if you soak it. So it's better to take a fresh one, and feed this one to the dogs. СКАЧАТЬ
