[Marinesky]

As usual, the holiday was a success.
There was a lot of good food, good wine, and, most importantly, good company.
And Maxim, Galin’s son, did not lose face this time.
He and his friend entertained our friendly female team as best they could.
It was already a lot of time.
It was time to leave.
Already almost on the threshold, Galya asked me:
- Listen, could you temporarily take Oleg to live with you?
Your boys’ room is empty anyway. He is a good boy. Whatever needs help, he will do it. He’s a tech guy, you know how well he knows.
Actually, this idea didn’t come as a surprise to me.
Galka has long been looking for housing for Maksimov’s friend.
They don’t offer dormitories in the first years at the university.
- I would take him in with me, but you know, my house is already full. –
Galya was right.
It is impossible to accommodate a guy with her.
And it’s true that I’m free.
My boys, when they left for St. Petersburg to study, they stayed there.
And my husband has been gone for three years.
- Okay, let him come tomorrow, - I didn’t mind.
- Why wait until tomorrow? - Jackdaw has already called. - Oleg, let’s get ready quickly. You will accompany Aunt Marina and get acquainted with the housing.
You can take our car.
We got to the house quickly.
I showed Oleg the room, handed over the keys to the apartment.
- I’ll bring my things tomorrow, is that okay?
I didn’t mind.
And with that he left.
The next day, returning from work, I found Oleg at home.
I’ll tell you straight, he surprised me.
The smell of fried cutlets was delicious.
And the table was almost set.
- I’ve been running the show here a little. Do you mind? - He said blushing, simultaneously taking off my coat and placing it on a hanger.
And already more confident.
– You wash your hands and go to the table. -
And he quickly ran to the kitchen.
I would even say he ran away.
On this occasion, I took out a bottle of red wine:
- Semi-dry, – and caught myself. - Maybe you don’t use this?...
