Tomato juice lover Gesha found a friend. A story.
Gesha lived in the same apartment with his great-grandmother, who lost her hearing due to her age.
Somehow, gradually, the joint life of Gesha and his great-grandmother settled down.
Once, when her eyesight still allowed Gesha's great-grandmother to read newspapers, she learned about the fate of a nervous elderly woman who lived in the same apartment with her grandson.
It seemed to an elderly woman that someone had stolen money from her - a pension.
Who could do it?!
It is clear that suspicion fell on the unlucky grandson.
The elderly woman called the police. The grandson disappeared.
Without a grandson, the elderly woman, who could hardly do any movement, also soon disappeared.
Gesha's great-grandmother thought about this newspaper material for three days, and, as a result, the joint life of great-grandmother and Gesha settled down.
Gesha's great-grandmother was thinking about the past, and Gesha drank inexpensive alcohol in the evenings.
Suddenly a turbulent period began.
Somebody began to knock loudly in the evenings at (on) the door of the apartment where Gesha and his great-grandmother lived.
The great-grandmother, due to her age, did not hear anything.
And Gesha, after having taken the inexpensive alcohol, usually slept.
So, no one approached the front door and no one opened it, despite the loud and insistent knocking.
But through a dream, Gesha was hearing a knocking on the door of the neighboring apartment - a pleasant neighbor Petya lived there, with whom Gesha greeted (when they met each other), and who without problems gave Gesha (according seperate, individual requests) small amounts - without any obligation to return them.
It seems that the door of the neighboring apartment was opening, some voices were heard.
Little later the restless period ended.
The knocking on the doors stopped.
Gesha did not pay attention to the absence of Petya.
Time will pass, and Gesha - one way or another - will meet Petya.
To make a life more fun, Gesha made the acquaintance with Kolyan from a neighboring yard.
Now, in the evenings, Gesha and Kolyan drank tomato juice in the yard in a secluded place in the fresh air.
Somehow everything in this life settles down..., the wind of time blows away worries... and life gets better...
