“Let’s start all over again, Nastya?” offers her ex-husband, drawing closer to her.
“Are you laughing at me, Gromov?” I say with a slight smile, shaking my head. “We’re too different!”
“Of course! You’re a woman, I’m a man. That’s natural,” he continues, coming even closer.
“Not about that, Andrey,” I stop him, raising a hand. “You’ll forget about me again—just throw me away like a little puppy, and me? I’ll fall apart into pieces again…”
“I see you quickly found who will put this puzzle together, dear?” he grits out. “A whole year you slept with Izmailov…”
Grabbing me by the elbow, he pulls me up from the chair.
“I can date anyone I want,” I say proudly, looking him in the eyes from below.
“Close your mouth, Nastya. You’ll be mine again. It’s a settled matter!”
