Vovka the indigenous Muscovite. He is five years old. He is afraid of darkness. He is also afraid of his father. Father can return drunk, mom will rush at him with fists, there will be a scandal. Vovka sits in the dark corner of the pantry and twists a glass ball in his hands. When he is completely scared, he sits in the pantry. There, with a glass ball, he is almost calm. He will remember this ball all his life. Shaking - and snowflakes are pouring onto the fairy -tale, good house.

Vovka seven. Winter. The house is empty and lonely. He is afraid of darkness. In the evenings he sits in the kitchen by the window, waiting for his mother. A cat sits next to him. He is alive, not so scary with him. If the cat is nearby, you are not alone. Outside the window people. When people outside the window are not so scary. Mom needs to wait a long time. She works in three jobs and comes late. Father has not been working for a long time, only mom works. Maybe the father will come before. Maybe he will come sober. The brother will return home. Mom will come. There will be dinner in the house. Or maybe the father will come drunk ... Vovka opens a window, with an open window is almost not at all scary, people are nearby. And you can turn on the light in the entire apartment, but then electricity burns, they will scold. They will scold the open window too. But very scary alone in a dark apartment. Even with a cat.

Very scary alone in a dark apartment. Even with a cat

Vovka nine. Sometimes mom cooks gray pasta for dinner. She has three men in the house, everyone needs to be fed, and she works alone, so there is no oil in pasta. Mom brings sausages from work. Vovka checks her bag every evening. This is such a game. He will play her all his life. If a woman enters the house, there may be something delicious in her bag. You need to check the bag. They sell cakes at school. There is no money for cakes. He and his brother at school are given free meals. They do not eat - poverty are ashamed, but come to look at the cakes.
Mom buys Vovka clothes in commission stores. There is no money for a new one. But about n does not put on the clothes that the parent committee brings.

Vovka returned to school after illness. He does not understand what mathematics are talking about. He is trying to do homework, but does not know how. Mom comes late. The father has a heavy hand, it is better not to ask him. Parents have several education classes, they can no longer help him. The elder brother is a second year, he is not much interested in mathematics. The next day, Vovka is called to the board. The mathematician calls him a fool. She does not like this family. A secondary brother, this one with the same future. Small, feeble, in ashen curls, Vovka silently stands at the board. Until the end of the school, the mathematician will say that he is stupid.

Vovka fifteen. He is still afraid of evenings. He does not want to live the way they live, but does not know how to live differently. In the family of his friend Seryozha on the table is a loan, from which the soup is poured with a beautiful ladle. They also have books. Vovka likes to read, parents of a friend allow you to take books with them. He was not left in the second year only because he did not wash his nerves to teachers.

Vovka seventeen. He is alone. Father died. Mom left for Gagra with her second husband. Brother sits. Vovka comes to graduation in his brother’s brother and suit. Nikt does not see how he is handed a certificate of maturity.

The next morning he understands that everyone has a future. And his future is the life of his parents. He does not want such a future. Classmates talk about institutions, he wants like them. In his house they never talked about institutions, his future is already clear - bread work is needed. He buys a reference book for entering universities, there are written specialties that he has never heard of.

Vovka sits for textbooks. Mathematics is a complete hopelessness, this is not a story, it can not be used. A friend of Seryozha says that mathematics is simple, and explains Vovka a rule missed in the fifth grade. Logarithms, sinuses, cosine Vovka will pass along with Seryozha in a month that remained before the entrance exams.

Vovka stands at the institute at the stand. He reads the list of those who received, not hoping for anything, stumbles upon his surname. He leads a finger named, checking the letters. His surname, his name is also his. To the fact that he entered the institute, his brother treats as a quirk. It is better to go to catering, at least you will be full. Vovka will throw the institute after the first session. It will act three more times, all three times successfully. With the fourth attempt, he will find what he will like.

Vladimir Alekseevich over fifty. He is afraid of darkness and loneliness. He has a cat, an expensive suit, a master of sports and a protected dissertation.

- I regret that a teacher of mathematics died.

- Why?

“I can’t put a candidate diploma in her nose and ask which of us stupid.”
The meeting of graduates forty years after school. Everyone is proud of them, especially the class teacher. She, unlike a mathematician, always considered him capable. There are two candidates of sciences in their class. The second is a classmate from a professorship.

“You changed my life,” says Vovka Seryozha.

- Come on, explained one rule.

An old friend does not understand what role he played.

These children with glass balls in their hands - tenacious, unbending wrestlers.

One rule. A sharp turn of life. The swollen path of the path, given to the only person in the family. Vovka was accidentally born in a foreign family or did their messengers not reach the rest?
These children driven into a corner for children with glass balls in their hands are tenacious, unbending wrestlers. All that they need to change life is a messenger of the path: a person who will tell that there are different institutions, and not just a technical school where you will be put against the will; Or a good tutor to prepare for the exam. Then they will go themselves.

It’s so easy to open the door to the door - pay for the work of the tutor.
