Igor was sitting at a table in a small kitchen and having lunch before work. He worked in the evenings in the theater as a cloakroom attendant in the center of the city. All already in the morning were at work. And Igor was alone. He lived in a small city in an area on the outskirts of the city, in a two-room apartment in a five-story house on the top floor. He had an older brother who worked in the same theater as an electrician. My mother was a teacher, a few months ago she retired, but continued to work in the district school, which was next to the house. My father worked as a security guard in a restaurant, also in the center. Since childhood, Igor had health problems, namely with his heart, therefore, he was not taken to work anywhere, he could not enter the school, but he did not despair. He finished eleven classes, worked as a janitor, cleaner, he was not afraid at all and was not ashamed of any work, and then he was lucky, his brother talked and he was taken as a cloakroom attendant. Igor was a short, wiry, twenty-six-year-old boy, he had black, docile hair and dark brown eyes, a kindly and sympathetic character, in principle, like everyone else in his family.
–Already four o'clock in the evening, in an hour you have to be at the bus stop.
Igor thought to himself, glancing at the clock that stood behind the glass in the suspended kitchen cupboard. When he had finished his meal, he washed the dishes behind him and went to get ready for work, the curtain of wood on the door did not loudly curl up when he went into the hall. Igor turned on the TV to listen to the latest news and began to gather.
