A cure for sadness

They had known each other for a long time. And not just familiar. They were best friends. Even as a child, two children met and walked together. Seryozha and Karina’s parents joked about their wedding. But until adolescence, friends did not feel anything for each other. Everything is changing, and Raevskaya became the victim of Cupid’s arrow. With every meeting with him, whether it was a trip to the cinema or a simple walk before his departure for filming, feelings woke up in her. But she didn’t dare tell all the Peas. Karina was afraid of losing him. The only friend without whom she cannot imagine her future life. The rainy autumn evening completely affected her mood. Not only did she get caught in the rain on her way home from work and got soaked to the skin, but Sergei hadn’t called for a week. When she reached her entrance, the girl went into the apartment and went to a hot shower in the hope of warming up. Coming out of the bathroom, she wrapped herself in her favorite blanket and sat on the windowsill, watching the rain, soon falling asleep in the same place with thoughts of the guy. In the morning, she was woken up by her mother’s call. The girl didn’t look at the display, just answered. " Yes? the voice was hoarse. " Honey, are you sick? " the woman forgot about everything she wanted to ask her daughter. " Probably. I got caught in the rain last night when I was coming home. " Maybe I should come? I’m worried about you. " Mom, it’s okay. I’m not small, I can take care of myself. " Okay, will you call me at lunch? " Of course. I love you. Karina put down her phone and headed to the kitchen. Turning on the kettle, Raevskaya climbed into the first-aid kit to look for the right pills. Having found and drunk one antipyretic, she brewed herself tea and went to the gym. Picking up the book, she continued to read it. While reading, she did not even notice how lunch came. Putting down the book, Karina went into the room to get the phone. After calling her mom and talking to her, the girl went to take pills again. As she was returning to the hall, someone knocked on the door. The girl wrapped herself more tightly in a blanket and went to open the door. When she opened it, she couldn’t believe her eyes. On the threshold stood a Pea with a happy smile. " Hi, baby. " Seryozha, no matter how glad I am to see you, now is not the right time, — the girl said in a hoarse voice and closed the door. It was very painful to talk, so she didn’t want to talk to him and explain what was what. It was not only the cold that was to blame for this, but also the fact that he did not write, did not call her for a whole week and then just showed up at her house. Let her love him, but she was proud and was not going to rush at him right away. After thinking a little about him and what had happened, Karina picked up the book and started reading it again. Sniffling and sometimes coughing, the girl read almost a third of the book until the evening. She was distracted from reading. Someone was knocking on the door again. Rayevskaya guessed who it was, and therefore tried to ignore it. But the knocks became more insistent, and, unable to stand it, she still went to open the door. " I told you it’s not a good time. " I don’t care. I drank the pills, brought them to you along with the fruit,” the actor raised his hands with two bags. “I’m going to spend the whole week with you. And your illness won’t hurt me,” he went into the house without asking her permission. " Why so? He didn’t show up for a week. And he could have done another week without me, " there was resentment in Rayevskaya’s voice, which Goroshko heard. " Baby, I didn’t mean to offend you. It just happened that way. I was busy. Filming… They’re so exhausting. I didn’t even have the strength to call my parents. " Seryozha, I don’t need your excuses, " the girl looked sadly at her lover and went back to the hall to continue reading the book. " Karin… The guy stopped sorting packages and followed his girlfriend. When he saw her in his plaid, which he gave her before leaving for one of the many shootings, he smiled and decided to try something. Sitting down next to her, he took the book from her, put it on the table and turned back to her. For a while he just sat and looked at her. At her red nose, slightly swollen eyes, which were still beautiful. He understood that, probably, he would not have the opportunity later. Leaning slightly towards her, Sergei began to doubt a little, but still decided and covered her lips with his, kissing her uncertainly. Karina wanted to push him away because of resentment against him, but she could not, only deepened the kiss, making it clear to Sergei that he could be more confident. He put his hand on her cheek and pulled her closer to him. Through a kiss, each of them conveyed all their feelings to each other. Pulling away, the girl smiled and hugged the guy. " After that, you will definitely get sick. He kissed the top of her head and hugged her tighter.
