I worked in the glorious Soviet times on a travel bus. I stand somewhere at the stop, waiting for people to come in, looking in the back mirror.
I watch a grandmother, in a cloth, bending her nose to the bus, almost at a angle of 90 degrees. Well, I waited until her ass disappeared in the rear-view mirror, I closed the door and started to speed up. Immediately I hear loud screams in the cabin, I immediately look in the mirror and see this grandmother who runs behind the bus pressed by the door for the hand. I brake, I open all the doors, I go out. I immediately understood what it was about.
The back door closed for me once. Sometimes she needed her hand to help. Apparently, the grandmother rose on her foot and grabbed the door, she began to close the grandmother and fell out, and her hand was stuck by the door. I raise my grandmother, the people also jumped out, they mocked me, they sympathized with my grandmother. But it seemed like it was all over, the grandmother is whole, before me apologizes, speaking herself guilty, put her on the bench, she says she will rest and go on another bus. Well okay again I apologize to her, people load again on the bus - I leave.
And a month after two, I repair the bus in the ATP, a guard comes, says you there on the passing door, someone asks. I come out, the mother is honest, the same grandmother stands, rather not the grandmother, the woman is old, but slim, and you won't say that when I saw her last time that letter "G" reminded me.
Almost on my neck, you are my father, and thank you, and I owe you in the same spirit. And in the hands of two avocados with Soviet delicacies, vodka and other equally delicious things.
She told her story. It turns out that she has been a backbone for 15 years. Where it was not treated and in hospitals and in therapists, and even reached the famous costume of those times, the one with a beard, it was still often shown on television. Nothing helped, so I went under.
90 degrees, the towel closed - I was embarrassed until I knocked her door and pulled something out of her. Since then, it has been drastically amended.
