Description
“I didn’t even know you’d had a baby, Katya!” her friend says, surprised.
“Yeah. Masha is already… three,” I say, stuttering. “Don’t worry, Natasha, I won’t stay with you long.”
“Come on! Sergey and I have a huge, spacious apartment. There’s room for everyone!”
Natasha sits opposite and lowers her voice:
“And who is Masha’s father? You didn’t tell me anything about him.”
I want to sink into the ground. Because my daughter’s dad is her husband—he’s sitting across from me right now, looking at me without taking his eyes off me. Life throws me one surprise after another. Sergey and I loved each other so much, but he refused the child—because on the first ultrasound they found developmental defects in the fetus. I ran away and secretly gave birth. I even managed to get married and divorced, and he… he married my friend.
