"With our driver." " He is a great guy." " Tell me." "I asked him, "what do you do in life?"" "And he told me that he used to be a footballer." "I said, "why aren't you a footballer anymore?""

" Mom, do you know why it's gone dark?" " Why?" "You covered your eyes with your hands." "No, it all went dark while I was taking a photo." "Are you alright?" " Maybe some coffee?" " OK." "Right." "Danil, here." "And here's one for Mitya." " Will you have your coffee with milk?" " No." "One teaspoon, one sugar, as usual." "I've drunk so much coffee at work today." " Did you add sugar?" " I did." "Oh, I've got headache again." "Can I have another pill?" "What should I do, put it under my tongue?" "Under the tongue, yes." "But have some water with it too." " I'll jump." " One... two..." "Wait, don't jump." "Come here." "Are you sure you want the black one?" "Maybe the red one would be better?" "I don't want to sleep." "Shall I show you a grown-up?"

"I've got no energy left for you!" "We'll just change suppliers." "Yes." "Artur Mikhalych..." "I'll screw in the bulbs myself."

" Have you sent the falafel yet?" " Have you sent the falafel yet?" "Yes." "Why nobody's taking the orders?" "Take this risotto." "Guys, who's working at the 8th table?" "Luba!" "Be more attentive." "If Oksana is out for a minute, you can bring the salad instead of her." "I've noticed that as soon as I enter the kitchen everyone starts cleaning." "While I'm away, no one's cleaning." "Can anybody tell me what sort of "know-how" is this?" "Here's the fridge we bought for hell a lot of money, and there's already some tape stuck on it." " Ah, this is a plug." " A plug?" "I see..." "What is this?" "This is what we have today, everything has been delivered." "And where's the paper?" "And no soap either as I see?" "No nothing." "No paper, no soap." "Scotch tape stuck on the fridge." "Perfect." "Mark, do we only have cold water?" "Why?" "And hot as well." "The water's hot." "Why cold?" "Will you give me a towel?" " Will you?" " Yes." "I'm getting it already." "You know, my hand is absolutely..." "Look, I'm touching you and I don't understand at all..." "What do you mean?" "I'm telling you, I can't feel." "For example, this thing, it's all." "But when I take it I don't understand..." "You don't even understand, what you are taking?" "Well, I was holding a cup and talking to Artur Mikhailovich..." "And I got a burn, you see?" "Really?" "Maybe you should have an acupuncture therapy?" "Doctor will say the diagnosis." "He'll look at you all along the spine..." "I see." "Maybe I'd better go the therapist?" "Why not?" "One doesn't prevent the other." "See the therapist and San Sanych as well." "Ask the therapist to come to your place." "Why going everywhere yourself?" "It all started with these weird sensations in my hand." " My right hand." " Of what kind?" "Well, a loss of sensitivity." "For example, I can't feel if the cup is hot or cold." "I can hold a cup with boiling water for quite a while before I feel anything." "Also, sometimes when I'm driving my mind just turns off." "Just for a second..." "Then I went to the market." "To buy some fruits." "That, what's it called?" "Jesus..." " An orange?" " No, not an orange." " The other one... that draws..." " Date-plum." "Breathe..." "One more time." "Right, well." "Your blood pressure is slightly raised." "Fundamentally it doesn't mean anything bad." "It may be an effect of the season." "The weather." "Your system has got exhausted during the winter." "Maybe, it's because you're constantly overworking..." "I will prescribe these pills for you." "Vitamins are necessary." "Have more rest." "More fresh air." "You are so young, you've got a child." "You have to take really good care of yourself." "Love and pamper yourself." "Get yourself a lover if you haven't got one." "Woman's emotions - good ones - are one of the best treatments for all the illnesses." "Mum, look, a mutant." "But it's a little bottle." "That's what I'm saying - a mutant." "Wait, it's my bottle!" "I've been looking for it for three days." "Give it here." " No." " Don't you have enough toys?" "No I don't." "You haven't bought me anything for ages." "Have you no shame?" "Right, you have to get ready." "Who are you playing?" " Pirates." " So?" "I can't see any pirate here." "Mom, look." "It's mine." "That's it." "Come on." "That's it." "Your feet are ice cold." " What have you been doing?" " I was making up a story." "What story?" " About endless drunkenness." " What kind of story is that?" "It's a story about a pterodactyl coming from his planet." "He seizes a crocodile and takes him to his planet." "But then the crocodile says, that that you shouldn't be rude." "And pterodactyl takes the crocodile back to his planet Earth." "And becomes the same as the crocodile." " Is it clear?" " Yes." "I want cookies!" "Just a moment, honey." "Mum, look." "Turtle-ninja has beaten them all up." "Very cool." "Breathe." "More." "Ok." "This one no." "And this one's good." "Spread your arms." "Close your eyes." "Now hands towards me, both." "Good." "Touch your nose with a finger of this hand." "Your nose." " Have you got photos from the X-ray?" " No." " You haven't X-rayed your head?" " Nope." "Ok." "And you don't know words like CT and MRT, do you?" "I know the words but I've never had it done." "OK." "Then I'll have the CT and come back to you, right?" "You do the CT, come back here, and then I'll pass you on according to whatever I see." "Then we'll know something for sure." "And what do you think it could be?" "4 months later" "They all are scared, panicking." "They run." "A!" "Help!" "Help!" "Godzilla has attacked our city!" "Mommy, tell me more about the crash?" "I've told you already a hundred times." "OK, look." "This is me." "And this car went very fast and I bump into his side." "And the car went away." "And I spin, spin." "Everybody beeps." "And I drift to the curb and bump into a post." "An ambulance comes." "I'm lying on the stearing wheel and don't even feel anything." "And then I woke up." "Where am I?" "Who am I?" "My whole arm is bandaged." "And they tell me," ""Don't you worry, we've inserted this iron thing into your skull, so don't worry, now you have an iron head."" "Like an Iron Man." ""From now on you'll never have a headache."" " Scary?" " Yes!" "Hello!" "Our Inna!" "I have an important announcement." "I've lost half of my brain and now I'm going to forget everything, please don't take advantage of it." "OK, guys, get back to work." "Hurra!" "Artur Mikhalych, what are you doing here?" "Wanna ask me out?" "Look, wait, leave it all." "Right, listen to me..." "If you need money for surgery or for treatment, there's no problem." "Do you understand?" " I do." " No problem." "I'm off." " That's it." " That's it." "That's it." " Take Yulya as a manager instead of me!" " Let's not discuss it." "Hooray!" "I'll to congratulate Yulya!" "What do they shoot into you in your hospital?" "You'll look for a replacement when you retire." "Now go and work." "Work therapy, by the way, cures alcoholics." "If you need cash, call me." "Artur!" " Thank you!" " What kind of harrasment is that?" "Bye!" "Have you joined a yoga class?" "Look here, you, yoga, go back to work." " I thought you'd ask me out on a date." " What the..." "Hallo, Yulya?" "How are you there?" "Everything's OK?" "Don't worry." "They are growing a dinasaur now." "Ah, growing a dinosaur." "Busy then." "Don't do that." "He's losing air..." "It's fine!" "He must stay under water." "The drip will finish in about twenty minutes and I will come back, OK?" "Alright." "Be careful there, yeah?" "Yeah, OK." "Thanks." "See you." "Wow, see, it looks fat like this!" "And like this - small." "Thin, fat, thin, fat." " Hello, Katya." " Yes, hello." " I'm sorry." " It's nothing." "So, first of all, you have to collect all the medical tests for Mitya." "Then pictures." "And I would also ask you to make a DVD." "A DVD with his videos." "Do you have any home videos?" "I do, just what I've made, amateur videos." "Fine." "You have to burn them a DVD and give them all to me." "How long should it be?" "Well, about ten minutes." "And you will be showing it to the prospective parents?" "And if they get interested, I'll be meeting them?" "Yes." "Exactly." "The sooner we do it all and have it, the sooner we can start the search." "Alright?" "Then, videos, pictures." "Could you please email me everything you've mentioned?" "I'm just forgetting things." "OK, no problem." "I'll send you everything today." " Are you fine with the price?" " Yes." "And, I'm sorry I'm asking you again, but are you sure you don't want to leave the boy with your ex-husband?" "3 months ago" "Come on!" "Why are you crawling?" "Stop crawling, you!" "He's playing on the field right now." "It's sure won't score." " No." "They must do it..." " Are you sure?" "Yes, sure..." "Borya, there's someone scratching at the door." "Go check." "It's getting on nerves..." " Hi." " Hi." "Can I come in?" "Yeah, sure." "Hang it over there." "No, shoes not here." "Come in." "The guys have dropped by, to watch hockey." "Hi there." " His current?" " Don't know." "Come in." "Have a seat." " Would you like some tea?" " Yes." " Black?" "Green?" " Green." "Oh, I lied." "I've only got black." "Ok." "That's right." "Let's drink some tea." "It's terribly cold." "Oh." "I'm dealing bulbs now." "These are broken though." "I'll have to take them back to the warehouse and exchange them." "Have some tea, you must be tired." "Would you like a cookie?" "Yubileinoe." "Just like back when we were kids." "But, well, it's cool stuff anyway." "These bulbs, I mean." "Soon the whole world will be using them." "There was an article in here." "Damn it." "Is it this one or not?" "And actually, you know, it's a very good thing." "Normal bulbs, they are kind of impulsive, right?" "They flicker." "Our eyes are used to it, but really we don't see this light." "But these bulbs can even be used in a greenhouse." "Plants can start growing better with this light." "It is said that these bulbs, energy savers, that they are white." "But actually this is the proper kind of light." "If you screw them in all the rooms, it will do you loads of good." "And in the bathroom and toilet too." "They help your body to produce vitamin D3." "It's all written here." "And those impulsive, impulse, bulbs are not good for you." "Where was that article?" "Yes, I..." "Yeah-yeah-yeah!" "He scored a goal!" "Watch the replay!" "I'll just watch the replay and come." "Sure, go." "That's my boy!" "Well done!" "I told you." "I told you they'd do it." "They have." "How is the little one doing?" "Actually he is not such a little one anymore." "Five years old." "Six." "Must be going in for karate?" "No." "He's not into karate." "That's right." "I'm also not a big fan of all this karate, taekwondo." "Look." "I've got such a big problem with these bulbs." "I checked them at the warehouse of course, but only two boxes." "And I took them to the car." "I'm such a fool, I didn't bother to look what they were loading and how." "Just sat in the car, waiting." "Now I've got no idea what to do with them." "Now they say I'll have to pay for the whole lot." "But I didn't break them in the first place." "Could you lend me two grands for a living?" "Thanks." "Or could you give me three?" "If I were you I'd think it all over one more time." "Actually I have thought it all over rather carefully." "I think I've got everything I need for today." "I will call you if I need anything else, OK?" "Lyuba, was it your brother who made that anniversary video?" "Yes, my brother, Antoshka." "Can you give me his phone number?" "Anton, I'd like to edit a short video about my son." "I see." "Lyuba told me." "Here I have all the materials on the flashcard, harddrive..." "I'll deal with it." "How long should it be?" "I'd like it to be 15-20 minutes." "And select those moments where he's smiling and so on." "Choose more touching moments." "When do you need this video?" "Can you have it ready in 2 days?" "Well, I was going to spend about a week on it." " I have other jobs too." " Is there anything we can do?" "Well, it'd be good if you added another five thousand." " Come in." " Hello." "Hi, come in." " What's your name?" " Mitya." "Have a seat." "The problem is that neither of us can have kids." "And that's what brought us here." "It's fine with us." "We've watched your DVD." "Such a nice, handsome guy." "We love each other dearly." "We've been married for four years." "She sells pills." "She's well packed with everything." "She's got a wonderful house." "By the way, we are both photographers." "We have our own photo studio." "We are professionals and we travel to different cities a lot." "Our photo studio "Mirazh" is known all over Russia." "We can't repeat it now." "It just was so sincere." "We just grabbed each other." ""It's him!" "Look!"" "I want to give him a real man's profession." "I think he will become something which I wasn't able to find and express in myself." "We could arrange it this way." "In order for the child to get used to us we could have an adaptation process." "We could take him for an hour or two." "We could spend some time with him, take him for a walk, have a chat, see what he likes." "And through all that we'd try to feel what kind of person he is and accept him as he is." "And he'd have a chance to see and accept us as we are." "She says, cool, who does he look like?" "And I say, like this?" "Jim Carrey." "But a bald Jim Carrey, who has cancer." "Everything will be fine, don't worry." "Vitalik will be absolutely fine." " It's a different boy." " What boy?" "Vitalik?" " It was the previous boy." " And who was on our screen saver?" " That's Dima." " Ah, it was Dima." "Ah, we are talking about Mitya now." " Mitya..." " But I meant him, yeah." "Yes, this is Inna." "About the DVD?" "Yes, that's right." "Yes, I spoke to Katya." "She showed me your video." "I watched it three times in a row." "And I called you." "Could you tell me about yourself?" "Well, who you are, what you do." "I'm 34 years old." "I was born in Rostov." "I graduated as a botanist." "I have my own florist's." "I think it was always my dream - to open a shop." "And at first it was very difficult." "But finally a year ago I've managed to do it." "And now I own a florist's." " Can I come and see it?" " Yes, sure." " Are you married?" " Yes, I'm married." "My husband's name is Sergey." "He owns a construction company." "I see." "Have you been married for a long time?" "Yes." "For seven years." " And you don't have your own children?" " No." "Why?" "I don't know." "Doctors explained it to me but I didn't get it." "I'll send you all the medical references, and you'll find the diagnosis there." "I'll send you mine too if you want." "My file is this thick." "Was it yours and your husband's mutual decision?" "I mean, you couldn't have children for a long time and you decided..." "To adopt a child?" "We wanted to for a long time." "But we've realized it only now, it must be the right time for it." "Why Mitya?" "When I saw Mitya," "I just wanted to be with him." "It must be stupid telling you." "You know perfectly well that he's wonderful." "He's so lively." "And so funny." " Oh, I'm sorry." " Get well." "It would be cool..." "I'll be asking you more weird questions, so don't take it personally." "Let's start with my visit to your shop?" "When?" "At some point." "Don't worry, I like you a lot." "You know, when I saw you, I felt relieved." "Because all my previous meetings upset me." "I'm so happy that you have appeared." "I'm glad to meet you." "Inna." " What's your name?" "I forget everything." " Olga." "I'm kidding!" "It often happens that people come in to buy flowers and they've forgotten to buy a present." "Or want one for themselves." "Often when we are making a bouquet, we don't always do it quickly." "These are wonderful pieces." "Oh, what is this thing?" "This is a ceramic article with elements of blown glass." "Proved to be insanely popular." "Zero items have been sold." "I was just thinking that soon I might need something like this urn." "Does it open?" "It's so pretty, already has flowers." "I just wonder, will it all fit in there?" "Maybe it will." "Or something like this?" "Though, no, it must be for big people?" "OK, what else is there?" " Do our people make pigs?" " No, these pigs are Finnish." "A Finnish pig." "How much is it?" " Twenty-eight hundred?" " Well, it's imported." "And what are these tablets?" "These are certificates." "Of the ikebana school." "You're an ikebana expert?" "It's the most in-demand profession." "My phone is ringing off the hook." "They call you from Japan and order ikebana?" "Yeah, just every day ten ikebana are being ordered." "Mostly by the Emperor's circle and other members of the Royal Family." " What's your name in Japanese?" " It's written over there." "There." "An upside-down man." "Well, that's me." "Cool." "And your outfit is very Japanese too." "Here, meet my friends." "Olga... and Sergey." " Mitya." " Hello." "Sergey is a constructer." "He can build a whole house or a kindergarten." "Will you take me to the building site?" "Sure." "But you'll have to wear a helmet there." "They'll give you a very cool big orange helmet." "Of course, or you could be squashed by a brick or a wheelbarrow." "Or a crane." " Count to three." " One." "Two." "Three!" "Oh, a figure!" "So, strength 16." "See, all sorts of abilities 14." "Luck 5." "Let's put it on its stand." "Do you know that the Emperor, the Lord of Sitha, had 30 luck." "And this one has five." "And he had the greatest strength." "A hundred percent." "And this one only has 16 percent." "So he'll beat him easily." "I'll leave you for a moment." "I'll fetch some napkins." "Alright?" " You're not afraid?" " No." "And where should we take him to eat?" "If you ask him, he'll say "Let's go to Macdonald's", for example..." "You can tell him," ""yes, you can have all that, but only if we eat soup first."" "You can refer to me, say that "Mum said that and that you can go wild after the soup."" "By the way, I cook a great soup." "There." "If he gets worried, you can call me." "What?" "It was good!" "Not the one that I made the other week." "I cooked a mushroom soup." "Serezha said "What is this soup with chewing gum?"" "It just 'cause there were dried mushrooms..." " Do you cook well, by the way?" " I do." " Serezha, does she cook well?" " Serezha, say that I do." "Serezha's mom cooks great." "And comparing to his mom I, of course..." "No as good..." "Is Olga always so insecure about herself?" ""Maybe I'm not a very good mom", "I don't cook very well"..." " Tell me how you two met?" " You tell." "I'd just come from Japan." "Went to the theatre." "And the bell for the intermission, rang." "I stood up very slowly." "And there were so many people, they all started to rustle papers." "All those women, "let's go", men hurrying to the cafe to grab a drink." "And I'm turning around through all these people." "And I see, in the back of the room, there's a man." "And at that moment it felt like he was also living in a different rhythm to all the others." "A full theatre, crowded with people..." "There's such a feeling when you meet some persone and it seems like you know each other." "When you meet her eyes and you think, "why is she looking at me?"" ""Why is she looking at me?" This was his first thought." "Larisa Mikhailovna, I don't really understand, honestly." "What are you talking about?" "Yes." "Good." "Why hasn't Mom come for me?" "Mom had to go to see the doctor today." "She has to have a little injection there." "And she said that you wouldn't mind if we pick you up?" "But why?" "The doctor said that because of the car accident she must get an injection." "It's nothing to worry about." "She just didn't have enough time to come and pick you up." "Okay?" " Shall we go for walk?" " Yes." "Together?" "Shall we take Serezha with us?" "Take me with you, please." "A couple more rounds!" "Perfect." "I'm doing well." "Will you fasten it?" "Oh, thank you." "Mom!" "As far as I can see the boy's having a great time." "I'm flying on a bug." "How are you?" "Have you tortured all the grown-ups here?" "There's some food there." "I cooked what I could." "Have you seen this?" "Oh!" "Yummy!" " Did you get to the museum?" " We did." "Mitya." "What kind of bread do you eat - white, brown?" "Thank you." "It's cold but not disgusting." "Still tasty." " Good?" "Have some soup." " I don't want to." "Eat some." "Look how thin you are." "Stuck your fork in the potato." "And what?" "And you've got a potatoman." "Look." " He's even got eyes, look at him." " Yes, there're the eyes." "How can we make a mouth?" "You can make a mouth with a little garlic." "Mom, I want some water." "Can I have some water, please." "It's a troll!" "We'll make hair too!" "Look!" "Wait!" "I'm a potatoman, how are you doing?" "No, we're making hair, look." "Oh, what happened?" "It's the brain!" " Mitya, don't play with your food." " I'm not playing." "Enough!" "It's our fault." "What are you making Bambi's eyes for?" "Get under the table and find it." "Alright." " Serezha, help him." " Have you found it?" "Didn't we discuss that you shouldn't play with your food?" "No, but we started it, we're sorry." "We won't do it again." "There's no need to protect him." "Did we discuss it or not?" "Yes, we did." "I can't hear you." "Speak up, please, so others could hear you." "Yes or no?" "Yes." "Next time, if you drop a potato, you'll have to eat it, do you understand?" "I understand." "Why aren't you eating your soup?" "I don't want to." " Take your spoon and eat soup." " I don't want to." "Olga tried hard, made some soup." "Go on, please, eat two spoonfuls." "It's no bother." "Maybe he'll eat some potato?" "No, he must eat his soup first." " What, is that all?" " Yes." "That's it." "Get out from the table, go wash yourself and go to bed." " How will I turn on the light?" " You'll take a stool." "Stop!" "Come here." "Thank Sergey and Olga for spending the whole day with you." " Thank you." " Thank you." "Good night." "Thank you for going for a walk with us." "Good night." "Good night." "Maybe, I'll go with him?" "Sure." "Just do as you like." "Don't think that I'm some kind of a hellcat." "He just never listens to me." "It's just that if I don't take them, I'm just like that one, like a Cinderella turning into this, what's that?" "What is it called?" "That one?" "I'm a little turtle!" "No one could defeat me!" "Now your back!" "You must press two times, quick, or else again..." "It's ticklish!" "Here, smell it." "It's just like tasting." "There are so many things I can't eat." "I just smell them like this." "It's like I've eaten a bit." "See, this is Mum." "His Mum is an alien here." " Is this you, dressed in orange?" " Yes, it's me." "In a space suit." "And here, he's so funny with this turtle!" "It was such a story." "Here he's got such a brave look." "He seems to be very confident, but he cried so much: "Oh no, Mum, I'm scared!" "I'm scared!"" "What can it do, it's just a turtle." "She just stuck her head out and that's it." "And this one, in a frame, I just adore it." "He wrote there on the frame:" "MA-MA." "We are ready to go to sleep." "We didn't wash the head." "Kiss your Mummy and go to bed." " Good night." " Good night." "Good night." "Bye." "Full speed ahead." "Look, I need your help with an injection." "It's funny, how he brought him out of the bathroom?" "He was screaming with laughter." "Pattson searched the whole house one more time." "He was already really worried." "Now he'll have to look in the back yard, in the garden." "When he was already getting dressed, he could find neither socks nor boots." "Why, it's always like this." "Always something's missing." "There, in the old wet chest, stuffed with rusty garbage, little Findus was hopping with joy." "When we went for a walk the other day, we were lying on a slide and meteorites were falling on us." "And in order to knock down the meteorite you had to spit at it." "Also he likes to say: "Hallo"." "Picks up a phone:" ""Hallo." "Hi." "Who's speaking?"" "When I was about 14-15 years old, all the girls were already kissing with guys." "Everyone in the class, and they all discussed it, how cool it was." "But nobody every looked at me." "'Cause I was very thin, skinny, and boys just didn't pay me any attention." "And I decided that I needed to practice somehow." "Because some day the moment for a kiss would come." "And I had to be prepared, professional." "And I thought, what looks most like lips?" "I took a kilo of mandarins, peeled them and I was kissing with mandarins." "Once a squirrel attacked me in the forest." "No, really, she jumped out and looked at me so aggressively." "A squirrel." "This big." "I just ran off." "She was about to do something to me." "And then we saw a real whale." "It approached and it had a white belly." "And when it turns over under your boat, you can see how huge it is." "It's massive." "And it swam under our boat like this, did this and dived back in." "It's the most beautiful thing I've ever seen." "You just can't believe that they really exist." "Cool!" "I'd also like to see it, these ones, what are they called?" "The ones you were just telling me about." "What are they called?" "Ok, go on, tell me about that, your first guy." "What, was Sergey your first one?" "Was he?" "Or you haven't had anything yet?" "Do you know that my Mum was in a car crash?" "Cool." "Now she has her head bandaged." "Now I also want to get in a car crash." "I'd want it too." "Well, she looks like a typical model." "A pretty thing." "I was totally petrified at first." "But I talked to her, and she is such a person, such a woman." "She always dreamt about a flower shop." "I came to see her in her shop, she was arranging bouquets." "No, they are sweet people." "She's so modelly, skinny." "And he says "my little bull-terrier", my fatty." "Why a bull-terrier?" "Has she got a firm grip or what?" "No, it's just so..." "There are such relationships between people..." "Has anyone ever said "you're my Rottweiler"?" "Well, what about Denis, how does he call you?" "Denis calls me nice names." "How?" "Pussy?" "How?" "What?" "Sunshine?" "Little elephant?" "Kitten?" "Bunny?" "Little hippo?" "How do you know?" "What, do I look like a hippo?" "I said, why, do I look like a hippo?" "Why a little hippo?" "And he says: "But I say a little hippo, not just a hippo."" "Are you aware that you're paranoid?" "Look, I'm not paranoid." "But a bull-terrier..." "You see, a little hippo is a kind animal." "It's kind..." "OK, forget it!" "Wait a second, there, I can't..." "Are you going to feed me today or not?" "I just don't know how to tell him." "Shall I tell him?" "No, I'll do it." "Do you enjoy your time with Olya and Sergey?" "Well, yes." "You have fun with them, you're not afraid of them?" "You're not listening to me." "Look at me please." "I've a terrible headache because of the car crash." "And I need treatment." "While I'm at the hospital, you can't stay here on your own." "You have to go to Sergey and Olga." "Do you understand?" "Can you turn around, Mitya?" "I'm tired of repeating it." "I'm just asking you to turn around and listen to me." "Did you hear what I just said?" "Can you look at me?" "Come here." "I want to talk to you and you're doing whatever." "I've told you ten times already:" ""Mitya, look at me."" "Do you hear what I'm saying or not?" "Do you want to sell me to organ-traffickers?" "What organ-traffickers?" "What are talking about?" "For little kids." "Are you being silly, honey?" "I saw it on TV, how some mums sell their kids to organ traffickers." "Of course, not." "I'm not selling you to any organ traffickers." "I can't take you with me, do you understand?" "They won't let little kids in." "Can you listen to me?" " Don't scare me." " I'm not scaring you." " You are." " I'm not scaring you." " No, you are." " Don't sell me." "Mitya, I'm..." "Do you want to sell me because I don't behave?" "Because I don't wash my plate?" "I'll wash it now." "I'll wash up all the dishes now." "See, Mum, I've washed it all." "You are not mad with me anymore?" "No, I'm not mad." "Will you also sweep the crumbs away?" "I'll tell them that we are not selling our boy to the organ-traffickers anymore." "Hallo!" "Yes, hi." "No, he is my little helper now, he has improved so much." "Now he's doing the washing up and cleans away crumbs." "We won't sell this boy even for a million billion dollars." "Well done, bunny." ""I know lots of them", said a little creature." ""And I know even more", another one said." "And they started together:" ""Once upon a time there lived a muckla, a very kind and nice one." "She also was very big and strong, clever and beautiful." "She was the best muckla in the world."" ""Yes", Fintus said thoughtfully." ""But you are my best friend."" ""Uhu", Pattson nodded and smiled." ""That's right."" "That's it, the end." "Mom, who are mucklas?" "Mucklas are Findus's invisible helpers." "Do you know that I am a muckla too?" "How is that?" "Even when you don't see me I'm with you." "If anything bad happens to you, I'll be around." "I can always hear you." "Well, will you live at Olga and Sergey's for a bit?" "Won't you be long?" "Honey, what if I'm gonna be long?" " Don't be long." " I'll try not to be, OK?" "Are you sure they're not organ traffickers?" "I'm sure." "They are good people." "Don't upset them, OK?" "Behave yourself, alright?" "Sergey promised to buy you a bicycle." "You'll learn how to ride." " Hi." "I'm..." " Sveta?" "Yes." " Are you from the hospice?" " Yes." " You came to see Inna?" " Yes." "Oh, she died yesterday." "Joking!" "Come in." "Why is it so dark in here?" "Do you have coffee?" "Yes, I've also got cakes." "Do you want some?" " Come in." " Can I?" "You need a chair?" "Sure." "I'm so sorry..." "I'm just nervous 'cause this is my first time..." " I've eaten a bit from the top..." " Oh, it looks very nice." " What else do you need?" " Shall I just sit with you?" "Great." "Let's sit for a while." "Maybe I'll clean up a bit?" " Wow!" "Will you wash the floor?" " I will." "You can't be feeling well?" "Let me do it." "No, it's cool." "When I'm on pills I feel just great." "It's just like LSD." "I'll call you three times a day." "And I'll be coming once in every two days." "Hey, don't bother, 'cause this week I'm going to kill myself." "But before that I want..." "What do I want?" "We'll go for a walk, we'll eat some cakes and ice-cream..." " Can you download films?" " No." "But my boyfriend knows." "You've got a boyfriend, cool." "Let him call me too." "Sure." "I'm joking!" "No, I'll just tell him which films to download." "That's it, I don't have any designs." "Though I used to be quite pretty." "Well, and now too..." "You're pretty now too and..." "Put it down:" "Manicure and pedicure..." "Actually, you see, I don't know what to say." "I'm not a big talker." "You don't have to." "I'll talk." "I've not talked to anyone for two weeks." "We'll do you manicure and pedicure, of course." "Cool!" "I like you so much!" " Are you afraid of heights?" " I am, since childhood." "Right, then today we'll jump with a parachute." " Does your neck hurt?" " Oh, yeah." "Well, my neck also used to hurt." "So I went into yoga." "And I felt much better." "But before it did hurt all the time." "I've got a book here." "Well, it's all for beginners there." "Oh, a hero's posture." "It's a very beautiful pose." "I can't really do it properly though, it's difficult to keep my arms spread." "Looks like Kama Sutra, doesn't it?" "Maybe." "It's all from India." "Just tell me what you need." "I'll go there and buy everything tomorrow." "Maybe, straws..." "It's OK, I've got straws." "Shall I throw this away?" "What the hell are you doing?" "Cool!" "That's classic!" "Why have you done that?" "What if you'd hurt yourself?" "If something happens I won't know what to do." "There, there." "I'll fetch a cushion now." "Just kidding." "I'm here." "It was a joke!" "Just a joke!" "What joke?" "You've frightened me." "Don't do that again." "I'm sorry, I won't." "But it really was a joke." "I'm sorry." "Oh, your hair's so wiry." " Cool." " Yes." "Ponytail." "I also had great hair." "Like a lamb." "Do you think I'm a blond or a curly brunette?" "Let's go?" "I need to take my pills." "Can you give me that one please?" "How many?" "I'm gonna be sick." "No, I'm not sick anymore, let's go back." "You're holding me so nicely." "Will you come to see me again?" "Yes, I'll come again." " Do you shave your legs?" " Me?" "Legs?" "Sometimes, yes." "When it's hot." "No, of course I do." "And I don't." "I'll never shave my legs again." "Coming!" "I'm here." "Don't look." "It's a surprise." "Oh, how much I love you!" "I'm giving you my love, and gifts, and flowers." "You are the only one in my heart!" "I kiss you." "I don't know how to switch on..." "By any tiny chance do you remember which channel I have to switch on for the video?" " Let's call 911?" "Hallo." " We'll have to deal with it ourselves." "What, you don't come on call to a terminally ill person?" "My video player doesn't work, are you nuts?" "I'm not capable of anything!" "Ah, there it is." "Oh, show time." "Bravo!" "You're the best." "Ok." ""Someone's not with me." "Ah, how can I find this someone?" "I can walk around the whole world to find someone..." "Come on, sing." "I can walk around the whole world..."" "Right." "And apart." "And left." "Oops, I'm so sorry." "No, it's really cool, come on." "Let's learn" "One more time." "Oh, how much I love you!" "I'm giving you my love, and gifts, and flowers." "You are the only one in my heart!" "I kiss you." "Sveta, let's go, it's time for me to sleep." "Help me get to bed." "Let's go." "Mom!" "I've found a sandwich in the kitchen!" "I don't know who made it." "Maybe it was Mucklas?" "Mom, eat some." "You're so thin." "You'll be transparent soon." "How delicious." "Mmm, I'm so full now." "Thank you." " Mom, can I watch cartoons?" " I can't hear very well." "Mum, can I watch cartoons?" "Ah!" "Can you brush your teeth?" "Sure you can." "No, cartoons." "And teeth?" "You can scratch my head here." "Right, scratch it." "Mmm, nice." " Mom, who are "lokhi"?" " What?" "Or chumps?" "Well, these lokhi are this kind of people who explore the Loch Ness monster." "Oh, then I want to be a lokh." "I want to be a chump." "Do you see, I've got a new haircut." "Do you like it?" "Yes." "Very much." "You look a bit like a scarecrow, but on the whole it's a good haircut." " I look like who?" " Like a scarecrow." "What scarecrow?" "The one with straw instead of hair?" "Mom, when beavers build a dam, do they eat the wood or spit it out?" "Inna, it's me, Sveta." "I've bought such sweet-scented apples." "And also a red bilberry tea." "One, two, three." "It's a dangerous situation." "Goal!" "See, it's very cool!" "Much better than PSP, isn't it?" " No." " Come on." "Why not?" "Because you always beat me." "Well, dude." "Play instead of talking then." "Let's go." "Hey!" "What was that?" "Goal." "Hey, young man, bring the goalkeeper back please." "Don't you see?" "He's been infected by the possesiter." "Bring back the players, we'll continue." "I can't find him." "Look!" "It's not him?" "No?" "Where has he come from?" "Hey hockey players!" "Your snacks are here." "Time out." " Time out." " We don't need a time out." "I won." "Did you beat Dad?" " The boys's having fantasies." " You beat Dad at hockey?" "Yes." "Daddy is losing his grip." "Getting older maybe." " Tell Mommy how exactly you won?" " Come here, darling." "His team was ruined by the possessiters." " By what?" " Possessiters." " Possessiters?" "What are they?" " Possessiters." " Possessiters?" " Yes." "You're right." "And he started doing this." "Right." "And what is a possessiter, tell me?" " It's a zombie." " A zombie?" "Zombie." "When they possess a person he turns evil." "And flies away into unknown." " Teleports himself?" " Yes." "I think it's time for our boy to start writing sci-fi stories." "We have a bright future." "Bye." "Now we are writing the second sentence, right?" "Continue: "Children go to school"." "Are we going to continue or it's a full stop?" "The first one was "Children go to school", so we start with a capital letter." "Now, count, how much sentences are there in the text, ok?" "And divide them with vertical lines."
