Book-8. Diplomatic corps novella

– Go, your name! – The older girl, smiling mischievously, pushed the little girl.

The girl with an affable smile, gently approached the Ghost, and came to a figure higher. Hands with long, sharp claws dug into skinny and turned to face the crowd. The girl looked frightened children. The figures echoed each other swan voices were silenced children, huddled fearfully to one another. Scratch the girl did not survive the first, emboldened tried to rush back to the front. But the sharp claws dangerously headed toward her, stopping the attack. When the hands recoiled from the girl she quickly ran away. Dima pushed forward at this time and watched the figures in white. Again gesture figure was higher invite Dima has come up. Someone pushed him. The boy devoured by curiosity and fear, was not moved. But curiosity won yet, and he slowly approached the figure. When they reached the haunted him, he suddenly grabbed powerful clawed hand. Drew him to her, and holding tight to the head, pressed down mouth and nose to his body, blocking breathing. At that moment, the mental order was gimlet brain:

«Tell them, that we did not do wrong to anybody, tell them that we were not touched, otherwise we will perish because of your germ- infested atmosphere! Say?»

Dima, shaking with fear and suffocation decided:

«I will say, to breathe,» – but stronger hand going into your mouth and nose with a white jumpsuit, and in another moment he would suffocate. Frightened boy thought:

«I have to say, I will say that you do not do anything to them: only let you do not touch!»

In a moment, his face turned to the crowd. Sharp claws dug into his right shoulder, creating an unbearable pain. Someone else’s idea was again to drill the brain:

«Tell me, with what we’ve done nothing wrong! Let us not touch! Say?»

«I’ll tell you- " – And the claws slightly eased the pain in my shoulder. The boy was silent. Again, a sharp pain in his shoulder began to grow up miserable. And he mentally said,

«I’ll tell you- " – The pain has subsided a little, but his shoulder ached as if it dug five acute poisonous snakes. The boy started to speak, not for a moment doubt that it will not understand Chilean children. With every word he said, claws released his shoulder, and the pain subsided, giving the confidence and firmness in his words. The boy spoke in Russian, but to my surprise heard these words in an unknown tongue Spanish:

– Do not touch them! They will not do anything wrong! – He repeated these words twice. The crowd, as bewitched, peered at Dima, frozen with fear, chilling, waiting, what, then, did this happen on someone else’s kid knows not where dumped in their children’s game in ghosts.

And Dima, feeling light and strong push hands, he realized that his mission is over, and heroically went back to his seat. Another minute standoff continued. In my head, Dima became a thought:

«We’ll be back, to thank you enough! Nothing just happens, should pay for everything! Goodbye! See you soon!»

Two figures suddenly turned and entered the gate. They went into the girl’s house and hid there. A crowd of children, devoured by curiosity, began to cry out to Mary was the name of the girl:

– Come and see where they ran away?

A girl came up against. She was scary, what if bringing it will enchant and it will turn into a mummy? Or even worse do something to her and she dies? But the inexorable kids persevered. Yes, and Mary herself overcame the fear of curiosity, and she gave up.

Dima was listening to children and was not surprised that he understands the Spanish language, as they say in the same way as he speaks in Russian. Anyway, so it seemed.

Meanwhile, Maria timidly approached the house porch. But inside was hesitant to enter, afraid. Began to look in the window.

– Well, what? Is there anyone? – Not appeased her cousin Teresa, a little under half a year older.

Finally curiosity got the better, and Mary decided to enter the cabin. Did not have with her for about ten minutes. Everyone has become boring. The boys ran away, the girls were alone, and Dima.

Mary appeared in a puzzled and surprised look, talking about the fact that she was unable to find anyone in the house.

– You lie all! – Unable to stand, blurted Teresa. – I know you’re with these assholes agreed to scare us so?

– What are these assholes, eh? – Onset usually quarrel between friends, who are often at this age, and which, as suddenly come to an end as it began.

Dima was bored and sad because he has no other and that his father does not love him. Consumed by these feelings he sadly trudged home.

Home all seemed to be the same. Only strange moans could be heard from my mother’s parents’ bedroom. Dima thought that bad parents and decided to see what was going on. With rapid strides up the stairs, carpeted green carpet from the living room to the second floor where the master bedroom. Pulling the door handle, he tried to open it, but all in vain, the door is locked.

– Mama! Mom! Are you ill? – Became alarmed call.

Groans immediately stopped. Behind the closed door started any fuss. Then, in the doorway appeared mom in a pink terry- cloth robe.

– Son you’ve come?

Yes, Mom! And, whatever you have done, you do not get sick?

Anya looked up in surprise at his son. In her eyes there was fear. She has carefully considered the boy:

– Repeat what you said, Dima?

– You do not get sick? – Dima not less surprised look on her mother, who was even more surprised and told the room:

– Leon! Our son speaks some gibberish! Come on, if he did not get sick!

– I hear you! This is pure Spanish! – Krazimov said.

– How? Where did he get the Spanish language? – Anya cried out in surprise.

– Sonny, what you looking at me so offended that he spoke to some gibberish? – Anya was not appeased. She could not believe that his son spoke in Spanish here so suddenly nor grained, no reason. And Dima, in turn, could not understand what was wanted of him, as he also says parents in Russian and understands them.

– Mommy, what are you, I’m telling you in Russian? – He said that when he heard in the said foreign language not understood by him. It scared the boy in earnest. He suddenly looked at with fear which seemed father. Leonid son looked worried. He stood in front of Dima such a high and mighty in the black family shorts, and the boy seemed at that moment the most reliable father in the world, which can solve any problem and trouble. And he turned to his father:

Papa I speak in Russian! I do not understand why these self out unfamiliar words? – Bob suddenly spoke in Russian. All breathed a sigh of relief. Anya pulled her son to her. Pressed him to robe and gently stroked on the head, still lamenting:

– My little son! Well, thank God all cost! Do you have a dad so scared that I nearly died of fright!

– I’m sorry, Mom! I’m sorry, Dad! I do so I will not do!

Saying these words, Dima firmly decided not to tell his parents what had happened in those moments when he was with the Chilean kids.

– Where is your car? – Asked the father.

– I put it in the garage! There is a garage for him, in a corner of the yard. I built it myself and the car drives very well inside. – Proudly said Dima.

– Well done, son! – Leonid gently took her son from the embrace of Ani and raised high above his head, saying, – You’re such a big and clever boy!

Peace was restored, and life regained its rhythmic cycle in the life of Dima Krazimova…

And two weeks later, suddenly appeared in the house Krazimov background Firs:

– Good day! – Came in without knocking, he is to his home.

The seed was sitting in the kitchen and had breakfast. Leonid stood up from the table and walked slowly into the living room.

– What do you instilled in our house? – Leonid asked warily.

– Sit down. – A gesture pointing to the chair at the coffee table, said von Fiers, the voice is not very soft and smacked the order.
