A wedding in Malinovka on Kosti-NF. A story.
Mrs. Quicktalker completed her report on plans and current affairs. She got up and was about to leave Mr. Wintertund's office. She paused for a second:
- A message from our correspondent from the Coal Region. A trifle ... A local resident was hit by a train ... This resident was taken to the hospital, half of his head was blown off ... But they connected him to an artificial respiration apparatus, so he is still alive ...
- How many people get hit by a train a year?
- I'll look in the data of the Statistical Office ... But he had a de facto wife ... They lived together for fourteen years ... She left her sister. They quarreled. So now her sister suspects something is wrong...
- What do the neighbors say?
- Our correspondent knocked on two houses. They didn't open doors.
- So, the neighbors didn't know anything about this family. An interesting situation. And who lived with this crippled man and his de facto wife?
- The husband's sister also lived with them.
- What does she say?
- She visits the hospital. Nothing intelligible she could to answer the questions of the correspondent. A simple country woman. She is embarrassed. The speech is poorly delivered. She is not able to connect words.
- One politician-activistess made a phone call me today - the one who "sculpted" a girl from the provinces (with her "business").
- Ah, I remember. The girl went to places of entertainment, drank alcohol. She had relationships with boys, and after that she hinted that if someone did not give to her a financial means (enough to buy an apartment) she would write a statement to authorities.
- Well, yes, she was attached to one of our capital's television and radio companies, they dragged her to the capital, but it did not work out. No one believed in the suffering of this businesswoman-girl... So, this, young actual wife, does she need money now?
- Yes. Needed.
- Does she need an apartment or a house?
- Needed.
- Does she need to find a some good job for the initial period?
- Need too.
- So, that politician-activistess asked to add more heat, more voltage, otherwise her topic somehow died out. Do we have storytellers?
Mrs. Quicktalker smiled:
- We are all a great storytellers. We tell a common [general] fairy tale about milk rivers and jelly banks. And we can vice versa. Can do the opposite fairy tale. An urine will flow. And around - a shit.
- Well, come up with something like that ... And we will demand a separate line for our radio station in the Budget Law ...
- Yes, money will not interfere with us ... We will think up ... "The dead are standing with braids ... And a silence around...".
