University. New dorm. There was a mix-up in one room, so now the boys (Anton Martynov, Michael, Valentin, often called Valya) live on one side and the girls (Kristina, who is Martynov's girlfriend, Masha, who is Valentin's girlfriend, and Yana Semakina, as well as a young girl) on the other. That evening, all the guys left the room because Anton and Kristina were arguing and breaking dishes again, even though everyone knew perfectly well how soon they would make up, and most importantly, how they would make up. Maxim and his friend Kisel had just been moved into the room across from this one yesterday, so they could hear everything perfectly well. That early morning, the young girl was just returning home and, hearing her friends' latest row, sighed heavily and sat down on a chair next to the door to wait for them to finish.
