Prologue
Day of Calls
ОглавлениеMarianna is sitting on the veranda of a hotel in Sharm El Sheikh. Her heart is still pounding, and her hands are trembling. She didn’t sleep well again and has no appetite at all. How untimely…
A message from the travel agent in Semivetrinsk on Viber: “How are you? How was the trip and have you settled in?”
She has to respond. With trembling hands, Marianna writes: “Everything is fine, the hotel is good.”
“Enjoy your vacation,” comes the reply. Then a call: it’s from Evgenia. Marianna picks up the phone.
“Hi, how are you?”
“Fine,” Marianna says in a quiet voice. If only they knew how unwell I am here… I feel out of place.
“Have you been anywhere?” Evgenia’s voice comes through. “Go to the Orthodox church there.”
“I don’t know, I’d have to go into the city, maybe take a taxi,” Marianna replies, thinking.
“Bring me something if you go to the church, bring me a cross or an icon.”
“Okay, if I get there.”
“Well, bye, enjoy your vacation.”
Then a message came on Viber from the Chief Administrator at work:
“How’s your vacation?”
“Fine, it’s very hot,” Marianna replies.
“Seek refuge in men.”
In men… what does she mean by that… Though, there are options, maybe it will indeed help…
