My parents gave me an old one-bedroom apartment. I was weeping with happiness. I did the repairs myself and tried to make it cozy, and my dad helped me.
And then finally, when everything was done, I ran out to the stairwell to chat with a neighbor and forgot to close the door. I was away only for 5 minutes, but when I came back, the neighbor’s cat had already settled on my sofa. And it felt so good: even the cat seemed to appreciate my new nest. © Not everyone will understand / VK
