We woke up together almost simultaneously and lingered in bed for a long time, since it was Sunday and there was no need to hurry anywhere. We talked, kissed, caressed each other and again chatted about this and that. When I finally left the bed to cook something for breakfast, I realized that by the time it would be more like lunch! We ate right in bed and stayed there until the early evening. Then we went to the hostel, where Ayyana took the necessary things, and on the way back we stopped at a restaurant and modestly, but with taste celebrated the birthday of my companion. And I gave her a small pendant on a thin chain of white gold and a new lens for her camera.
By early December, Ayyana finally moved to me ...

May 2011, St. Petersburg
- Nick, you understand that it is damn dangerous! That territory is not controlled by our forces. If something happens and ... I can not scatter my best shots.
At the end of May, late in the evening, we sat in the office of the editor-in-chief of the magazine for a glass of cognac and discussed a brewing business trip to a nearby country where a military coup occurred.
- I'll go, Jura! This is not discussed. That's because I, as you say, is the best, which is why I should be there!
- No, no, Shevchenko won this - an ardent, young, let him go, the combat experience is gained. Kolya and I have sniffed the powder!
I just shook my head, disagreeing with my boss and old friend, and sipped a tart grape drink.
- Do you seem to have any progress in your personal life, huh? - Yura suddenly turned the conversation over and winked at me, smiling slyly. - Heard, heard, you old bastard!
- Yes, damn it, you know ..., - I looked away to the side, I still somehow embarrassed in front of colleagues for our relationship with a young student, but remembering the sparkling look and sincere smile of Ayyana, I myself involuntarily smiled. They look and smile like that only when they love, sincerely, with their soul, with their heart. - ... you know, yes, I fell in love. And I feel happy, maybe even for the first time in my life, having lived for so many years, I am happy! And I do not know, maybe this is an obsession, maybe everything is fleeting, and how long it will last, I don’t know, but while I am, while I love and feel that I am answered with sincerity and reciprocity, then every day is mine! Since God decided there, in heaven, that I am worthy of happiness, so I will drink it to the bottom, how much is measured, even if I have to pay a big price for it ... You know, Yura, it's worth it!
When I mentioned God, Yura (an unbeliever, like me) even raised his eyes to the ceiling, as if there really was a god hanging down instead of a chandelier and nodding, confirming my words.
- That's not fucking Kolya you go anywhere. Here you have happiness over the edge, eyes like a boy shine when you talk about it, and you are going to war. Durrrak! - innocuously replied Yura. - It was decided, I will send Shevchenko!
- No, Yura, let's not swear. I need this report. If you want - send me Shevchenko, if you want - separate from me. But I will go. Not from the editors, so in itself, a free reporter.
The editor-in-chief only wearily shrugged his shoulders, knowing that it was useless to argue with me, finished the cognac, putting the bottle and empty glasses in the drawer.
- Let's go home, Kolya!

Ayana pressed her fragile body against me, as if she wanted to warm up, or was looking for protection. But from whom? From what?
Her thin fingers mechanically played with hairs on my chest, she touched my shoulder with her cheek, blowing her neck with her breath. I stroked the smooth, like marble, skin of her bare back, running her fingers along the ribbing waves of her slim body.Ayana lay, throwing her back on me and my thigh touched the silky fluff of her pubis.
- Are you excited about something? ... Read more →

I returned from the flight a day earlier. From a pier to each wheelbarrow docked. I ring, I ring at the door - no one unlocks it. I had to drop an army trunk from my shoulder, to look for my own keys, which are almost at the very bottom!
I unlock the door, in the apartment there is silence, I hear only - in the shower the water is noisy - my wash means, and in the hallway of sneakers other people, well, obviously not mine, fact, shit!
Well, I'm a calm man, with understanding. I know if a lover, then ...

It was December 30, we changed from the guard and I led the personnel to headquarters to report on the change, hand over their weapons, send the fighters to the barracks and go home to rest and get ready for the New Year.
From afar, at the entrance to the headquarters, the stocky figure of the political officer of the unit, who temporarily performed the duties of the commander, was already visible, and apparently was waiting ...

To no avail. Where to go next - she did not know yet.
Outside the window of a second-class carriage, which arrived a quarter of an hour ago, it was late spring at the terminal of Kulikovo station. The sun painted everything yellow: the walls of the station buildings, the faces of passers-by and their clothes, even the gray cracked asphalt of the apron, along which the gusty wind drove bits of newspapers and various small garbage. A passing dachshund casually marked a thick concrete pillar ...
