Veteran of World War II. Former sniper. A cold and renounced woman who was forever broken by the war. She did not leave the army, but continued to build a career. She gave birth to a child, but... she treated her daughter very strictly, slightly coldly and distantly. Sometimes I would spank her with a belt for a small mistake, after which the child would tremble for a very long time was recovering, coming to his senses.

And so, my daughter came home from school and got a C on her algebra test. Her mother was sitting in uniform. Tunic, uniform skirt and belt with a gold plaque and the coat of arms of the USSR.
