“Mom, enough.”
“What’s ‘enough’, Gena? Now nothing can be fixed!”
After Galina Ivanovna left, Anna immediately turned to her husband:
“Did you see her? She doesn’t do anything herself, yet she acts as if she were a queen!”
Some days after the wedding, Gena informed his parents:
“Lena and I have decided to move into that house, the one Galina Ivanovna gave as a gift.”
Anna Nikolaevna nearly lost her senses:
“Are you out of your mind?!”, “It’s all her influence! She wants to hide you in the middle of nowhere so that you’ll deteriorate faster and she can take the inheritance!”
“Anya, what are you talking about? Have you completely lost it?”, Alexander frowned.
Anna exploded, “I’m speaking absolutely sensibly! He needs constant medical supervision, and he’s planning to go to the middle of nowhere! I won’t allow it!”
“We already have the tickets”, Gena replied calmly.
Anna said coldly, “Fine, if that’s the case, don’t come to me for help anymore. Let your new family take care of you.”
“Gena, don’t be mad at Mom; you know her character”, Alexander said. “She’ll come to her senses. If you need anything, call me, and I’ll help.”
“Thanks, Dad.”
“But still, why exactly there? In this respect, she’s right—that place is a real dump.”
Gena smiled: “Maybe you won’t believe it, but there are healing springs there. Lena and her mother are sure that this place will help me get better. Honestly, I don’t really believe it myself, but why not try?”
“You’re such a skeptic. Sometimes what cannot be explained turns out to be the most effective. I wish you good luck.”
As they arrived at the house, Gena looked around in surprise at the overgrown yard: “It’s all wildly overgrown here!”
Lena smiled, saying: “Of course, no one has lived here for many years. But don’t worry, a little work and it’ll be as good as new.”
She opened the door, and they stepped inside. Gena was surprised, the house turned out to be quite cozy, and there was hardly any dust. He was so exhausted from the journey that he barely sat on the sofa before he instantly fell asleep.
Initially, Lena took care of the cleaning, while Gena helped as much as his strength allowed. To his surprise, he began to feel better—more energy, and his appetite became voracious. A week later, he completely devoured his dinner and even surprised himself: – I can’t understand how it happened, but everything went in!
Lena gave a sly smile: “I told you, miracles happen in these places.”
Gena looked at her curiously: “Why are you so sure?”
“When I was a child, I used to come here often and saw many strange and amazing things.”
“Of course, and all the local guys were chasing after you!”
