It happened.
“By the way, did you think I wouldn’t notice the bruises?”
What other bruises? Kirill looked at his uncle in bewilderment.
– Violet! Clear traces of fingers on the buttocks and thighs. In size, it painfully looks like your giant paws!
“I didn’t notice the bruises,” Kirill was completely taken aback.
– If I were your father, I would unscrew your ears! So that this does not happen again, Cyril!

Do you understand that this can be regarded as rape? If anyone did that to Caroline, your cousin, by the way, I’d shoot him! So know!
“What rape are you talking about?! Who do you take me for anyway? Kirill threw indignantly.
– I used to take him for my beloved nephew, talented and smart. Now I don’t even know! Arthur threw up his hands. “Okay, it’s too late to sprinkle ashes on your head. The thing is done. But if I hear about this again, I will personally teach you the mind! Belt.
Cooling down a bit, the doctor continued:
I gave her a prescription. In a couple of weeks it will be as good as new.

– So long?
“You’re lucky that she doesn’t have any breaks!” For a long time, you see!
– Good good. Did you give her all the medicines she needed? Maybe some more vitamins?
– I wrote everything down.
“Great, can you pick it up now?”
“Take it, she won’t sit in the examination room forever. Arthur shook hands with his nephew and said goodbye.
Kirill entered the examining room and saw Kira looking miserably at the instruction booklet. He approached her and tried to put his arm around

her shoulders.
– Don’t be upset, Uncle Arthur said that everything will heal soon. Let’s go, I’ll take you home.
Kira silently followed him to the car.
She looked depressed, which only added to Kirill’s torment. It was the last thing he wanted to offend Kira. It is not clear how to make amends now. He wanted to talk to her, but he couldn’t find the right words. And what can be said in such cases? I’m sorry I bruised you? I’m sorry I got drunk and lashed out? I’m sorry, what even appeared in your life? Well, I do not. Cyril did not regret at all that he appeared in her life. And I didn’t regret yesterday. At all. However, if he had known that Kira was so

gentle, he would have been more accurate and gentle. But this is the only one of his mistakes.
On the way to Sinichkina’s house, Kirill saw a pharmacy and stopped nearby.
– Get the recipe.
– What for? she wondered.
– Over the top! Don’t ask stupid questions.
He took the paper from her hands and fled into the building. A few minutes later he returned with a package and handed it to Kira.
“Everything you need is here. If you need anything else, call me.

“I didn’t save the phone number,” she answered quietly.
“Here bitch!” he cursed to himself, turning darker than a cloud.
He glared at her and handed her a business card.
The silence lasted all the way. Only when he reached her house did Cyril cool down a bit. I didn’t want to let her go, but I had no choice. We need to meet her again. Only now it’s normal, on a sober head.
Kirill stopped the car, turned to her to ask when he could meet her. Kira was ahead of him,
briefly throwing:

– Till! And jumped out of the car.
She didn’t even wave goodbye, she quickly disappeared into the entrance. He wanted to roar with rage.
Kirill Alexandrovich, stop torturing the TV. Your rattling of the canals is already breaking my whiskey,” said Aunt Masha, a portly woman of about sixty. She came a couple of times a week: she cleaned the apartment and cooked. – You should get out of here. I need to clean up the living room.
– Is the duck ready? Kirill asked. An appetizing smell wafted through the apartment.
– Half an hour more. Don’t you dare touch the
oven!

Aunt Masha served in Kirill’s family for as long as he could remember. She lived with her father and ruled the house with an iron fist. Neither Cyril nor his father touched the household at all. Aunt Masha decided what dishes to cook, what detergents to use, whether new carpets and curtains were needed in the house. She even followed the clothes of the owners. Nothing could escape her keen eye. She managed Kirill’s apartment herself. In the mansion of Alexander Demyanovich, two maids helped her.
Aunt Masha was strict, but fair and resourceful. She was the only woman whom Kirill allowed to push himself around and whose advice he listened to. He resorted to it in childhood, scratching his knees. She boasted of success in studies and sports. Aunt Masha always found

time for him.
Cyril’s mother never showed much attention to her son. She was much more interested in shops, endless trips abroad, parties. As it turned out later, her husband did not care too much either. Alexander Demyanovich found out about her betrayal when his son was eleven. The wife was expelled from the house in disgrace and did not appear again in Cyril’s life. Alexander Demyanovich did not lament about the divorce, but he did not bring any more women into the house. He preferred to start intrigues on the side and quickly ended them.
-In half an hour Nathan will come! Then I’ll get only bones from the duck, “complained Kirill.
– A big duck, two troglodytes will have enough

to eat, – Aunt Masha did not fall for the
provocation.
Cyril took a deep breath and went to the kitchen.
The hum of a vacuum cleaner was heard in the living room. Cyril tightly closed the door and began to hypnotize the phone. He fought the urge to call Kira all day. Anxiety was eating away at my soul. He didn’t know if she would contact him if she felt worse. The anger has long since vanished and has given way to a nagging feeling of losing something important. I wanted to hear her voice, look at her, touch her. And not only.
Kirill grabbed the phone and, not thinking what he would say to her, dialed the number.

The phone rang with long beeps. Sinichkina was in no hurry to pick up the phone. Cyril called again, then again. The beeps were replaced by the message “Subscriber is not available.”
“Just wonderful,” Kirill hissed, throwing the phone down on the table. – She turned off her phone!
Later that evening, he decided to visit Kira in person. But here, too, failure awaited him. Kirill rang the intercom for a long time and to no avail, then went into the house behind one of the tenants. In vain. Nobody opened the door for him. It seems that the beauty was not at home.
-I also galloped off for a walk! So, health is in order, – he muttered angrily. Okay, I’ll talk to her

Kirill cursed, remembering that he would be away for the next four days. Well, there’s nothing you can do. He will endure. Probably…
