/ world today news/ The bill was staggering, but so were all their neighbors this month.
They shared the evil that had once again befallen them together, but each had to save himself.
– We live as if in a circular defense – groaned Gennady.
Katya was silent, she was already thinking hard about how to save themselves.
To borrow? There was no one – all their former colleagues, friends and acquaintances were poor like them.
They didn’t even think about protesting or refusing payment – they knew they would be crushed.
– This time there is no escape! Gennady formulated the situation.
– And what – shall we die? – Katya, his wife, asked quietly.
– If we have to – we will die! Gennady stuttered.
They had never spoken to each other like this, but now they both knew there was no escape.
In the neighborhood, the two of them were called the Pigeons, because the two of them always walked, always quietly and meekly, as they said – and they worked on the ant’s path.
They retreated, retreated, but now there was nowhere to go.
– I will have to die!.. – whispered Gennady, and Katya cried.
Then everyday cares absorbed them and they seemed to forget about the bill.
Gennady again went to the office of the company where he served as an accountant, but did not stay long and went home.
In the evening, Gennady raised the blood pressure, and in the morning, for the first time in so many years, Katya decided to go alone to the supermarket for bread – the pigeons didn’t buy anything else, their money still wasn’t enough…
Katya left slowly and slowly, and the people from the block looked at her in amazement – they had not seen her alone for many years. They were so surprised that they didn’t have time to ask why, where is Gennady…
Katya could feel the howl of the unasked questions, walked and remained silent – what could she say?
He entered the store, bought bread and started to go home.
He entered the apartment and instantly felt that something had happened. He threw away the bread. He did not bend down to pick it up, because he felt that the terrible thing was coming.
She didn’t dare call him because she seemed to know that he couldn’t answer her anymore.
She walked slowly and her eyes darted.
He found Gennady hanging in the bathroom.
When he did make his way to the living room and sat down in his favorite place, he saw the note:
“Kind, gentle and lovely.
I found money for the bill – I left it in the wardrobe.
I stole that money. I will not tell you from where, because you will go to return them.
Pay the bill and get used to living without me now, because I committed a sin and punished myself..
I kiss you and know that in my last minutes I thought of you.
Gennady”.
Katya did not feel how she went out onto the terrace and flew down like a dove.
He did not manage to spread his wings, but only spread his arms as if to embrace Gennady as soon as he met him…
