Alexander did not really like the dog Fyodor left behind by his late wife and sometimes even beat him. This mongrel dog, always barking at him, biting and missing his late wife, only added fuel to the fire of Alexander who missed his wife Marina. Fedor lived in a limited world in which time froze at the moment of loss. His wife, his hope and joy, left this world, leaving him in darkness. He couldn't close his eyes and deny the memory of her. In his dreary existence, even the air seemed constantly saturated with her scent. Every day Fedor entered into a slow battle with loneliness. He spent hours just sitting next to her photo, wishing he could go back to that moment of happiness. Even the dog they both had given him seemed like a constant reminder of his pain and loss.
