CHAPTER 2

Andrey has sat down in the plane at airport "Pulkovo". Nervously - fighting mood inspired him. It a hot forehead has nestled on a window, and on a body ran мурашки. It flies over clouds, looks at the dazzling sun, and with each minute comes nearer to a new stage of the life. It is a little being afraid, suddenly, something will go not under the scenario, written in his head. But all the same it flies, and the return way is not present. He recollected, how they grew grey with Mariyanoy behind a table, on a table tea smoked, and they together absorbed домашнею a batch. It would not like to be the hero of the Mexican serial. To Andrey speaks to itself ":" With this woman I am ready to grow old, but not to grow old! » . In his life was so many events, but the present love yet was not. But ahead at it - the long - long life full of dreams and realisation of in a life. After the plane has landed at the airport of a city of Penza, and has completely stopped, Andrey has taken breath. In its thoughts a happy life. Andrey in pass has seen the pilot who artfully smiled. Through a smile has told:

- Greetings, fellow countrymen - inhabitants Penzy.

 And was heard to Andrey: «Greetings, fellow countrymen - people reminding feminine sexual organ». - Andrey has not surprised such perception of its words. It was any sign, but during this period he could not understand, that meant.

It has received luggage. Has come on a stop of the bus and began to wait for it. Andrey has recollected Mariyanu at the age of twelve years. These memoirs have caused in it a smile. To lobbies there was the most beautiful girl with whom he admired in the childhood. The fine princess, with which he could not think of a meeting even in impudent dreams. The bus has approached on a bus stop, and it has entered into it. Has risen at back glass, and looked, how cars go. As he attentively peered at houses, suffering, that the bus so long goes. In St.-Petersburg it seldom went by the bus, always preferred the underground. Andrey has nestled a cheek on glass. The bus jumped up on hummocks, and Andrey hit a cheek about glass. At it the head from long pressure has ached, and it was even heavier to it to go. At last the bus has stopped not far from railway station.

… Andrey has sat down on an electric train. The electric train has got under way. And it steadfastly looked out of the window. Before its look floated houses, trees and fields. Knock of wheels, soothingly operated on it. With each blow of wheels it came nearer to Mariyane. That it closed eyes, trying to fall asleep. That opened eyes, looked that in a window, at passengers. But thoughts all the same did not give, not to fall asleep, not to look. Time inevitably went. Andrey needed to leave at station Raisin, but to it still was six stops. Having specified at the neigbour when to leave, it began to count stops, being afraid to pass station Raisin. And nevertheless he has waited when to leave at the following stop, at station Raisin. This time to it was remembered for a long time. Time lasted, he very strongly worried.

… Leaving an electric train, he has looked at the sky. And fast step, how much could, together with the people went to a bus stop. Unexpectedly for Andrey, before his eyes, there was father Marjany. Andrey, with a smile on the person, and with good mood, has greeted:

- Hello.

- Hi Andrey. - with calm, and a smile on the person father Marjany has told.

 Andrey has put suitcases on asphalt, and has lighted.

 - Give we will smoke, and we will go. I by the car. So you will go with comfort. - father Marjany has efficiently told.

Father Marjany took a suitcase, and they have gone to the car. They have sat down in the six, and have gone. On road of cars was not, and along the edges of road there were pines. In half an hour they were at the house of the bride. Got tired, nervous, it left the car. For them already waited, at a fence stood Mariyana and its future mother-in-law. Andrey went with a huge bouquet of roses, to Mariyane. Has kissed her on a cheek, one hand has pressed to itself and has presented to it roses. There and then the future mother-in-law has stretched a hand with the sour and dissatisfied person. And as the iron lady has greeted hand shake. Andrey was surprised, it when women hand shake did not greet. Mariyana, having looked at flowers, with a smile on the person has expressed:

- I do not love a rose, I love gladioluses.

- Next time there will be gladioluses. - with the same smile he has whispered Mariyane on an ear.

The future mother-in-law a slanting sight looked at it. Andrey had not a pleasant sensation as though it something now will steal. All four together not hurrying up they have entered into the house. The supper was already ready. Andrey have set for a table, and on the contrary villages on chair Mariyana. Andrey practically not that did not eat - has been paralysed by its sights. He tried to tell, but she did not listen to it. Mariyana thought: «As it rural, with absence of cultural development, could involve such person». - Amused its one, that it has ended the Penza pedagogical institute. Has unexpectedly watered a rain, drops knocked on a window. The settlement "Pine" has washed freshness. Mariyana поежилась from a cold. Has thrown shoulders with a down scarf. With a gentle smile looked on Andrey, and thought: «That waits for it in relations with Andrey».

… a day later, third Mariyana has put on a white wedding dress. It was beautiful and irresistible. The happiness overflowed it, she has waited the fantastic prince, in 25 years. During too time Andrey has put on a wedding suit, has hardly fastened a tie. They were happy. Only the mother-in-law went from a room to a room, the person at it expressed hostility by marriage Mariyany. Mariyana has approached to Andrey and has asked to attach to a suit a white artificial flower. Andrey has tried, has refused, but Mariyana insisted. And she has attached a white artificial flower to Andrey's suit. They had to wait still half an hour when the wedding car will approach. Mariyana and Andrey left on street. They breathed air pleasant and saturated with fragrant evaporations as though they were in the middle of a flower bed set by roses. They looked at the approaching wedding car. When it have stopped, they in it have sat down. The way to the REGISTRY OFFICE was not far, five minutes. Also they went with the raised bewitching mood. This day there was only one wedding in settlement. In the REGISTRY OFFICE waited only Mariyanu and Andrey.

In the REGISTRY OFFICE long to wait it was not necessary. All invited have gathered. A newly-married couple have asked to rise on a carpet, and invited to a parquet. Mariyana and Andrey stood and attentively listened:

- At you today road to heart day - you create a family together to pass the course of life, in common to divide pleasures, difficulties and to be true each other. We should you remind: the happy matrimony is inconceivable without the big human feeling and the deep realised responsibility for destiny of the loved one, in an equal measure it is inconceivable, if spouses in home life see only one rights, forgetting about new duties which it generates. Protect love which has connected you, and manage to keep it for all your joint life. (Executive committee of regional council of People's Deputies).

… Andrey has put on a wedding ring ring finger Mariyany. Mariyana has put on Andrey's ring finger a wedding ring. Have kissed.

… Andrey At first has undersigned for the certificate. Mariyana has undersigned. And both witnesses have undersigned.

… And them declared the husband and the wife. A newly-married couple has received congratulations from the invited visitors. Andrey and Mariyana solemnly left the REGISTRY OFFICE building. Lodge in the car, and have gone on settlement, with feeling of the executed debt. Have assigned flowers to a monument. The car went on settlement the Pine, Mariyana and Andrey looked that against each other, at passers-by. In fifteen minutes they have driven in a house court yard.

On a house threshold, there was a mother-in-law and the father-in-law with bread and salt. The mother-in-law has said congratulatory speech, but sincerity of its words was felt not. With it have suggested to bite off bread and who will bite off more, that will be the owner in the house. About the beginning bit off Mariyana, with extraordinary greed. Andrey has bitten off with feeling of necessity. Then they have entered into the house. It is not a lot of having taken rest, Andrey has learnt, that for them wait on a celebration at school where worked Mariyana. Mariyana and Andrey have gone to school to celebrate wedding, with teachers.

At school already waited for a newly-married couple. All teachers have gathered, for them it was in a novelty. The celebratory table has been covered. To Andrey it was not cosy a little, as there were one women diluted with two men. Andrey whom did not know, except SHamanovoy (girlfriends and schoolmates Marjany). Only Mariyana knew, what for it is necessary for it. Small wedding has turned out. All congratulated a newly-married couple. Teachers have tried, that all looked festively, beautifully and solidly. Mariyana has reported to the former colleagues, that she has married. In two hours the small holiday has ended. A newly-married couple went on road and with pleasure discussed a holiday at school. Mariyana with pleasure and great pleasure has discussed everything, as well as what words them congratulated. She enthusiastically argued on a forthcoming basic celebration. Behind conversations a newly-married couple has come back home. Houses already waited visitors, and the table has been covered. Mariyana and Andrey have a little taken rest, have sat down for a celebratory table.

Newly-married couple sat at the head of a table. Andrey considered visitors. After all settles, has begun a celebration. All by turns congratulated a newly-married couple, wished good luck in home life, it is a lot of children and health. Father Marjany looked through a doorway behind an event, and necessarily submitted from kitchen everything, that was necessary. And its mother sitting at a celebratory table, ordered the husband. Mariyana and Andrey under words: "bitterly" - kissed. The holiday was cheerful, Mariyana and Andrey rejoiced. A newly-married couple is closer to the end of day got tired more and more, and already waited, when the holiday will end. Practically at the very end of a celebration, the father-in-law has brought a cap and has given to its mother-in-law. The new mother-in-law, with a contented face and pride, with words: « And it is a gift from parents of the bride ». Has lifted a hand with a pack of money upwards. Has shaken by denominations, and not jumping up almost on a place, has thrown them in a cap. Andrey it has a little made laugh, he knew, that this money has been removed yesterday from savings-bank book Mariyany. The cap from hands in hands passed to visitors, and everyone, how many could so much and threw money. Time has come, and all visitors became disperses. A newly-married couple saw off visitors. They were happy and got tired. All were amicably approximately tidied up in the house. And Andrey left on street to smoke. Villages on a bench also looked at the night star sky. Mariyana left on street and villages near to Andrey. He has embraced its right hand and has pressed to itself.« Here it of happiness »- Andrey has thought. And Mariyana thought absolutely about"friend", it is a little being confused, she has asked Andrey:

- The first marriage night we will spend in Leningrad?

- Why? - Has with astonishment asked Andrey.

- In the house of the husband, all the same. - Mariyana with a grin spoke, gently looking in the face the husband.

- So we there will be only in five days, and that you wish to tell, that it is all correctly. - Andrey strongly upset spoke, surprised to such relation to.

- Well give here, now I will go and I will lay our bed. Sit, smoke, I will call you. Wait. - Mariyana it is strong разнервничалась, and has entered into the house.

Time went. Andrey has changed on a porch, and has lighted. Different thoughts ran in a head. Such difficult and confused day at Andrey yet was not. Such pressure, it when did not test. The door after a while has opened, and Mariyana has called Andrey to sleep. They have come into a bedroom, have undressed and have laid down in a bed.

 Mariyana before wedding suffered a complex of "the good girl". It was brought up by the father, and she tried to justify its hopes. The father very much loved Mariyanu and never raised on it a voice. He very much was upset because of its offences, but it was for it intolerable punishment. At school she studied средне. The notorious public opinion presses on Mariyanu, she would like it or not. After 10 classes, it has gone to Penza to arrive in art school, accompanied by the father. But passing by pedagogical institute, it has submitted to it documents on receipt. Chose a speciality of the teacher of initial classes, she understood, that with children of advanced age at it to work it will not turn out.

Years in twenty Mariyana has understood, that it is necessary to change the relation to, and to associates. Its self-estimation should not depend on external factors, and the opinion of associates should not influence acceptance of own decisions. Therefore it has become isolated, and by a pedagogics technique, she formed public opinion. As an example for Mariyany teachers of pedagogical institute have served. It would be necessary to look for such irresponsible people in all country. They cancelled lectures, put automatic machines for what, were late for seminars, had not time to check up examinations. At all thus with enthusiasm to tell about the scientific and pedagogical activity. She has understood, that irresponsibility ascends from worldly wisdom. Tormenting others, it is not necessary мучится itself. That it loved, it is not necessary to be faultless. And the main thing that guilty would be someone another, let even, if it the loved one.

Andrey and Mariyana laid in the beds which have been pressed down by a thick blanket. Mariyana strongly worried after all for it, it was the first night. Mariyana did not show neither caresses, nor feelings. Andrey was in not understanding that there is, a sensation, that something is not correct it did not leave.

In the first marriage night, again created mother-in-law, has laid down in a bed, but did not sleep. It in a head had so much different thoughts, that the head at it went around. She to a pain in a stomach regretted, that has agreed on this marriage. It laid in darkness and over and over again repeated the same phrase: «My God! That it does with my girl!? I hate! I will make all, that you to dissolve! I and knew, that it will come to an end!». And the new father-in-law laid in an outer entrance hall, and was happy. He thought: «Though the daughter will be happy. Will be at me the grandson. And I with it will play, as once with the daughters». With such thoughts the father-in-law has fallen asleep.

The first night has passed. Andrey still had only hope that all will be good, and that it will make all for this purpose. In the morning a newly-married couple has sat down to table, and began to drink tea. The mother-in-law around ran and constantly mowed a sight at Andrey. Andrey felt a hostile sight even on a back. The same day a newly-married couple began to pack things. What it was possible to send by mail, they packed into parcels. The father carried parcels on mail, and sent to Leningrad. So the young have spent all time before departure to Leningrad. Mariyana constantly all touched, and Andrey helped it.

Time when it was necessary to leave has come. The car to Penza stood at gate. The father loaded its bags. And mother Marjany with horror looked, on occurring event. It so would not like, that Mariyana left. And nevertheless, there has come the moment when it is necessary to leave. Mariyana has said goodbye to the parents, with relatives and sister. Andrey and Mariyana lodge in the car, and have gone to Penza. Two hours they went, and practically among themselves did not talk. Mariyana has become isolated, and thought of the. That Andrey did not ask it, she plainly did not answer.

The car has approached on the Airport input. Young left the car, have taken away things and have come into an airport building. While they waited for a start, they grew grey on a bench and among themselves talked:

- Mariyana you want, to you I will read our astrological forecast for November. - has asked Andrey.

- Read, together we will laugh. - it is indifferent she has spoken.

- Then listen! A lion: «Though in November the trip on Seyshely, nevertheless, occasions to pleasure also will not be enough necessary to you. First, you can prosecute a room subjects and dream. Secondly, will start to grow roots in new collective. The offer, received couple of months back, you, at last, will accept, and will not regret».

- Likely and will be. - Has grinned Mariyana.

- And now about me, about scales. Scales: «At you affairs always« too much ». The similar prospect will not cause the big grief in you. Behind a desktop you feel cosier, than on a house sofa». And so on.

- Yes, interestingly write. Yes say lies as always forecasts. - it is assured, but with feeling of irony spoke Mariyana.

Mariyana has opened the bag, has got a tablet, has thrown in a mouth, both has washed down with juice. Also has told to Andrey:

- The head is ill.

Andrey looked on Mariyanu, and Mariyana looked in emptiness. So they sat and were silent. Yet did not declare planting aboard the plane.

… Andrey sat at a window, and Mariyana nearby. She has asked Andrey:

- How you have learnt to write pictures?

- I began with the smallest. Wax мелками tried to transfer the sensation of the world. But as it was found out then, it and has appeared the main thing. I without a regret have said goodbye to habitual understanding of the world. Museums could not satisfy me with the picturesque canvases completely. Here also it was necessary, all that does not suffice to write most. After a while I began to paint in oils. It was necessary to experiment much. A year later began to write every day, destroyed borders between naturalism and impressionism. Changed a letter manner. What it is possible to think up still? Yes much! But how many it is possible to extol the woman who has lost sensuality and has a shapeless figure. Therefore I try not to write. You want, I will write your portrait?

- No, I do not want. I am able to draw. - Grinning, she has told.

Mariyana has again started something to search in a bag. At last it has got packing of tablets. Took one tablet. Has thrown it in a mouth. Also has washed down with its mineral water. Andrey has looked in eyes, and has asked it:

- What again the head is ill? And what for tablets you drink?

- The head is ill me. - it is nervous, she has answered.

- And how tablets are called? - He has asked again.

- I to you have told, they from a head. - having looked interrogatively on Andrey.

At this moment, the board, with an inscription has lighted up: «Fasten belts». The stewardess went on pass and checked, whether have fastened belts. At the plane have earned turbines, and it began to taxi on a runway. The plane has stopped. Andrey took for hand Mariyanu, and has kissed her on a cheek. Turbines began to work even more loudly, and the sound from them became even louder. The plane began to speed up, and after a while has come off a runway. And here the plane with Mariyanoy and Andrey began to gain height. They sat and worried, whether they will reach Leningrad, or not. At last the plane has gained height, and has headed for Leningrad.
