The next morning I was sure that Marina would sleep at least until lunch. The benefit of the previous day turned out to be troublesome, and she also sat behind the laptop until late. However, the girl crawled out from under the blanket right behind me and sat down next to me while I was brushing my teeth.

In the bathroom there was a noticeable increase in various jars, boxes and tubes. Marina even dragged her toothbrush with bees on the handle.

With one hand, I hugged the girl by the waist, and with the other I brushed my teeth. It is rather unusual to do this together, but since girls want such closeness, I will not object. Marina watched me in a mirror image and looked very pleased.

At breakfast, I honestly warned Marina that I would be busy almost all day. She did not mind, only clarified that I will be engaged in affairs at home.

While I got out and laid out on the table folders with documents and records. Marina decided to do morning aerobics. The sight impressed me a lot.

Pretending that I could not find the document I needed, I lingered in the room and, out of the corner of my eye, watched Marina in sports shorts and T-shirts waving her arms cheerfully and doing various exercises.

- Do not stare! - Marina asked, deeply arched forward and swaying her ass.

“I didn’t think,” I honestly lied.

- Aha, of course! And then I do not see! - the girl began to squat actively, with her hands on her waist. - Enough!

I had to retire to the kitchen, although I wanted to look at the other exercises. Starting to be interested in sports is good, even useful. And how shorts look on Marinina tight ...

The next few hours I spent working with documents. Curious Marina quietly approached several times and looked over my shoulder, but did not ask anything, and did not comment, so as not to interfere.

I was so carried away that I did not immediately hear the doorbell. So who can it be? I usually have no guests. My friends know that I do not like to drive anyone to my apartment, so they always contact me by phone. Yes, and my address only Dimka knows. Really ... Ksyu? A chill ran down my back.

Olga stood on the landing. I expected her to see the least.

“Hello,” the friend greeted happily, bursting into the apartment without any delicacy.

Marina met her friend with a scream of joy and hugs. The girls immediately cracked about something of their own. So ... I did not understand.

- What do you not understand? - Olga easily read my bewilderment in the face. - You do not like when they come to visit you, I remember. But I am not for you, but for Marina. Any objections? That's great, go brew coffee with liqueur. Yes - yes, I know that you have liquor! Marina yesterday through ICQ boasted what kind of great coffee you did.

I don’t know how to argue with the girls, so I had to take a breather and organize coffee and sweets on this hog. Olga has already managed to stick her curious nose into all corners, saw what I was doing and graciously allowed me not to be distracted while she and Marina would communicate. Also, the door to the kitchen said to close, so I did not eavesdrop.

I declare loudly that I am the owner of the house, but it is prudent to close the door, and generally I am quiet. I just don't want to get involved and I have a lot of business, and indeed ...

I do not know. what they were doing there, but to me every now and then came a lively laugh. I did not mind, again immersed in the paper. At the same time, he managed to make several important calls and carefully plan the next few days. I had to make a very important life step.

The flow of guests on this has not dried up.I barely had time to remove the documents and ask Olga if she plans to stay for a long time, when the doorbell rang again. This time Maria Nikolaevna arrived.

“I forgot to call in advance,” the woman didn’t sincerely apologize, who was obviously on purpose without warning. Maybe she hoped that I would not have time to hide the evidence? I wonder what she expected to find.

Out of the corner of my eye, I manage to notice how Marina looks at Olga knowingly. Yes, it's a conspiracy! Watch out, Maria Nikolaevna! Ready to swear, Olga specifically waited for the woman to support Marina. Look how happy they are sitting - the plan was a success.

Olga managed to impress Maria Nikolaevna. Polite, educated, and even an employee of the prosecutor's office. How can you resist?

It only remained for me to bring coffee and cake pieces while the ladies were chatting lively.

- Igor, - Maria Nikolaevna handed me a piece of paper, another list - Please buy some products. I'll make you a casserole and salad.

- And buy some sweets! - Marina demanded, quickly finishing up something on a sheet.

Olga just chuckled and ... quickly added a few more points!

“Here, Igor,” Maria Nikolaevna tried to shove money at me, but I firmly refused:

- Not worth it, anyway you are cooking for us.

- Do not worry, - Olga supported me. - This owl used to live alone and spend money on food delivery. Pizza, sushi and more. You even save him by preparing homework.

“Well, well,” surrendered Maria Nikolaevna.

I quickly ran through the list with my eyes. Hmm ... Here you need to go to a large store or market.

“Igor,” Olga caught up in the hallway. - I threw off the text message Dimke, he is now free - to ride with you, so that it is not boring.

- Well! - this is good news.

Marina also went to accompany me, and at the same time she took upon herself the responsible task - to lock the door. Mistress ...

The girl quickly looked at Maria Nikolaevna and embarrassedly kissed me on the chin. Being completely open in relations with me, she was shy and even shy in the presence of other people.

I smiled encouragingly, promising not to linger.

For Dimka I had to go to his work. He offered to use his company car, but I did not want to attract the curious glances of passersby. My friend didn’t argue too much, he was less worried about what we were going to do.

- Yes, they are already harnessing you with might and main, - Dima studied the list and agreed that it was worth going to a large shopping center. - Tell me how it went with your parents? What is the "family friend" drawn?

- And you generally, how do you know everything? - I was amazed.

- So Marina spent the whole evening with Olga in ICQ, - Dima told me.

So this is what she did before bedtime, and I thought she was playing toys on a computer.

- Well, like this. What was there? - impatiently asked Dimka.

A suitable shopping center was located on the outskirts of the city, especially so that it was convenient to get to it by car, so along the way, which took some time, I had time to tell everything in detail.

“Kirill, of course, had a big screw-up with a fake policeman, but, in general, behaved like an ordinary person,” Dimka argued while we were parked. - Of course, he got mad, did something stupid, but all this can be attributed to stress. The fact that you did not like him does not make him a criminal.

- Marina said that he is Oleg's friend, - I reminded.

- Not illegal. He is not responsible for Oleg.

“Then I don't know,” I surrendered.

“And I don't know,” Dimka nodded. - But we will work out the version and find out. You still go about your business, and I will continue the investigation. There, with these pills, this porridge brewed ... But does not concern you.

“I'll take my word for it,” I grinned.

In addition to the products in the list there were several books, Olga tried. She noted personally verified allowances for housewives with detailed and simple recipes, a kind of hint for Marina, that it is time to learn. Or a hint to me ... it will become.

As we headed towards the car loaded with bags, I noticed an audio and video store for goods.

“I'll catch you up,” I take off all the packages to indignant Dimka and go into the store.

The range is great, but I do not want to spend time, so I immediately contact the seller:

- Hello, I would like to buy something ...
