As soon as I opened my eyes in the morning, my eyes immediately fell on white boxes tied with a blue silk ribbon. Pulling them out to the middle of the room, she chose the largest one, pulled the ribbon with trepidation, removed the lid, and there! ... I stood motionless and looked inside, then carefully pulled out and unfolded - a fur coat! Frozen, she held her outstretched arms, examining her from all sides. I recognized the fur right away - a polar fox.I could not even dream of such a thing, and I did not even think about it. And now she pressed this light gray, fluffy beauty to herself. Carefully spreading the fur coat on the sofa, she opened the second box, from which she took out white boots with flat soles trimmed with fox fur of the same shade as the fur coat. Biting her lip, she placed her boots next to the sofa and opened the last little box, which contained white gloves with gray accents. And then emotions overflowed - I fell to my knees and, clutching my gloves, burst int

- Son-in-law Matvey with children. He comes every year, but Matvey never spoke to him. I only talked to my granddaughter. Today I decided to talk about it.We walked slowly along the line. The snow crunched underfoot, someone's conversations and laughter could be heard in the distance. I pulled the hood up.- Martha.- Mmm?- And what happened to grandfather Matthew? I know, of course, that it is not good to get into other people's secrets, but you never know, I will blurt out something superfluous, not knowing the situation.- Oh, Leah, this is not a secret, - she sighed, - It was a long time ago, about four years later, Darena, his wife, died. It was very difficult for Matthew. My son was then already thirty years old, probably, and my daughter, Maryana, was only twenty, in my opinion, turned. He, blackened with grief, overlooked his daughter, and she fell in love with a werewolf from another pack. Although he immediately told her: “You’re not a couple for me, but I won’t refuse you

- Leah, you're talking nonsense now. I just can't understand why you needed a passport in the camp, that's why I'm asking. Well, okay, I'll talk to Maxim and personally come.This generally pissed me off: they don’t want to return my document, and this tone of his, they say, is doing me the greatest favor.Thank you, but I don't need your presence. You shouldn't bother yourself so much, just pass it on with the driver of the duty car and that's it.- I still need to talk to you, therefore, as soon as I find the time I will come, all the more you still need to bring your fur coat.- Alexei, it feels like you don’t hear me, however, as always.- Always what?- Nothing. You need to talk, not me. So be kind, just hand over the passport. If in two days I don’t have it, I’ll go on foot to the flock and then explain to everyone yourself how I got there from South America! As for the fur coat, don't bother - I won't take it. Too expensive a gift for someone like me and not from those who ...

“It’s the same,” she sighed, “Maybe I’ll never succeed at all, and I’m just trying in vain,” she leaned her back against a tree and closed her eyes in frustration.“And you said you were wearing an artifact.” Show him.I looked at him warily.- Why?- Yes, just show, do not shoot. I have a guess.I hesitated, but nevertheless took out a cross and showed it to him in my palm. He leaned over and examined it carefully.- Come on, turn it over, - he examined it from the other side, and even closing his eyes, leaning slightly towards my palm, he sniffed, - And when was the last time you took it off?frowned:- Mmmm... I don't take it off at all. And what?Here he raised his eyebrows in surprise.- As! And why? Come on, remember: how did you feel before you put it on and after?I, having removed the cross in my bosom, straightened up, slowly wandered to the station.- They put it on me when I was sick. For a long time. Since then, I have not taken it off - this is my protection.- You know,

I looked at him warily, looked sideways at the porch. Well, nothing, if suddenly something goes wrong, I will have time to call.- Wow, and now try to direct me as if a wave stream of kindness, calm.I tried. Maybe even puffed out loud. Opening one eye, she asked:- Well, how? Happened?- Mmm, no. I will direct my stream to you now, so that you understand and I will comment. Close your eyes.Bli-i-n. Here's something that didn't feel right to me. I closed my eyes anyway.- You must first imagine the face, the image to whom you want to direct the flow, well, it seems like a good wish to direct, only internally. Feel how it is now.- Leah! What are you doing?- Sitting. I try to feel, - I looked at him in bewilderment.- You yourself have directed an energy flow at me.- Yeees? And I didn't do anything.- Come on again. Try to do, well, or feel the same as the first time.Closing her eyes, she tried to recreate the same feeling. And how to do this if you have not done anything before? I
