- "And here you are. I already thought you'd be scared to come, you know what?"
- "Nah, no shit, dude. Yeah, but. My father smokes so often that he won't even notice a half-empty box is missing. Let me light it for you."
- "Are you scared? Keep it steady. I know it's the first time, but let's not go back."
- "Hahaha!!! Don't keep it to yourself for too long! Shit, you look so pathetic holding it in!! Haha! Augh- hehahah-"
Cigarettes out the window - TV Girl 💙🩷
ᬊYou knew Roma a little earlier than he knew Byasha or Anton, so the first thing you knew was that he invited you to try smoking cigarettes together, which he took from his father's pocket. Sometime in November, a boy called you to a bench near a house where there were no old ladies or anyone who could rat on you.. I asked you to get dressed and leave without telling your parents what you were going to do or with whom, just to say, "I'm going to go for a walk in the yards," and that's it. When you came to that very bench surrounded by houses in a circle, a closed area, and no one really ratted on you because they didn't know who you were or whose children you were. Pyatifanov was already sitting on a cold bench with his hands in the pockets of his jacket and waiting, and then your footsteps were already heard, and he opened his eyes and smiled cunningly.ྀ
ᬊThe boy took out an empty pack of cigarettes with only 2-4 left in one hand, and with the other an old lighter that he had once bought with his hard-earned money that he had been given to save. You blinked a couple of times and asked, "You.. Did you steal them? It can't be that you bought cigarettes, Rom.." The boy shook his head and then took out one cigarette for you and the other for himself, inviting you to sit next to him.ྀ
ᬊThe boy pressed his cigarette between his lips and brought the kerosene lighter to his own, and then to your cigarette, which you held uncertainly with your fingers. He looked at you in expectation and perplexity.ྀ
ᬊHe took a drag on his tobacco and let the bitter smoke out of his mouth, while you didn't know how to do it.. you didn't even hear or see how adults do it, you coughed, your eyes watered and Roma laughed, slapping you on the shoulder.ྀ
