GALINA: Well, I've salted it several times before.
MASHA: Why?
GALINA: Yes, because I try – not salty borscht turns out. I'll throw another pinch, try-again no. Still add. And then I started talking to you, and then I started talking to you again.
MASHA: So, over-salted, with whom does not happen, so what is the whole tragedy in this?
GALINA: Yes, you know, he doesn't like salty things at all. Eats some kind of all lean. And then I made a mistake. Well, here we are fighting for this topic. All my efforts were wasted. How I would! (swings in feelings).
MASHA: Okay. Listen, do you know who I just met?
Masha passes through the room, settles down, creates an intrigue with her intonation and facial expressions.
GALINA: Who?
MASHA (leans back on the sofa): Well, guess what?
Masha smiles slyly, but Gale is not up to fortune tellers.
GALINA: I don't know. Who?
MASHA: Well…, think-think…
Galina gets up from the floor, picks up a rag, a pot, a bowl, and looks at her friend.
GALINA: Why are we smiling so slyly, huh?
MASHA: Well, well?
GALINA (changes face, extremely surprised): Come on…
MASHA (triumphantly): Daaaaaa!
GALINA: Noooo..
MASHA: yeah Yeah!
Galina returns to her usual state, excitement and interest instantly evaporate.
GALINA: Listen, I have no idea who you're talking about. So, I decided to play along a little, I couldn't resist.
Masha's face changes. She's disappointed.
Galina goes to the kitchen and takes away the pot, bowl, and rag.
GALINA (shouts from the kitchen): Want some tea?
MASHA (shouts in response): Pull!
Masha sits down more evenly on the sofa, takes out her makeup bag, looks in the mirror, and powders her nose.
MARY (mutters under his breath): What an incomprehensible woman… And after all understood each other with half a word until married not withdrew! There now as…
Galina returns to the room with the cups, treats her friend, and sits down next to her.
GALINA: Well… so who did you meet there?
MASHA: Hermana!
Galina freezes with the Cup in her hand, not bringing it to her mouth.
MASHA (noticing the reaction of her friend): Aaaaaaa… My feelings are still alive, alive…
Galina does not immediately move away from the hang-up. Still, he carries the Cup in the specified direction, SIPS and chokes. He starts to clear his throat.
Her friend pats her on the back.
GALINA: What? Who! What kind of feelings? What are you talking about? So many years have passed. And then… I didn't like him very much…
MASHA: Oh-Oh-Oh… didn't like it. Don't tell me! How many tears were shed on my long-suffering knees about the relationship that you had then…
GALINA (interrupts): So! Masha! Stop!
MASHA: Well…
GALINA (interrupts): STOP! STOP! STOP!
Galina again brings the Cup to her mouth, begins to drink, Masha at this moment casually finishes her story.
MASHA: I told him I was coming to you.
Galina chokes again and clears her throat. He puts the Cup down on the table. Masha pats her friend on the back.
Galina, catching her breath, looks at Masha with a disapproving look.
The one with the guilty grin.
GALINA: Are you crazy? Why did you remind him of me at all?
MASHA: So I'm not just like that! I didn't want to say anything about you at all. It just sort of happened. We crossed paths by chance and said Hello. Word by word. He asked how you were, so I told him everything was fine. I'm coming to you right now.
GALINA: So he asked about me…
Galina looks away, confused.
MASHA: yeah…
They shake their heads.
