Pov. Lila If I'd only known my life was going to go to hell, I probably wouldn't have been born into this world. My grandmother died of a heart attack, I didn't even have money for her funeral, thanks to our neighbors who collected everything bit by bit. "Lil, don't cry! We'll figure something out!" My brother whispered in my ear, and I was too broken for words. We were sitting with him in our gray one-story house, it turns out that my grandmother took a large amount of debt and did not have time to pay. "One million rubles! I can't make that kind of money! Not only is there nothing to live on, but it's also a debt!" Tears roll down my white blouse, no one can help me. "Lila! I'm hungry" My brother asks me, and I wipe my eyes and look at his pale face. I open the refrigerator and see empty shelves, with all this fuss, we have no food left. I'm looking for money in my wallet, but it's only a hundred rubles. I shake out my wallet as a familiar business card falls out, my heart leaps out of my chest. I have no other choice! With shaking hands, I dial Platon Olegovich's phone and wait for his call. Long beeps, and my little brother is already laying his head on the cold steps. "Hello!" "Hello! You see, my brother is very hungry!" I stutter on every word, and I hear just lively music. His hot breath is transmitted to me through the phone, and I wish I hadn't called him a hundred times. "Where are you? My driver is coming to pick you up!" We waited with Vasya on the street for about two hours, as a black foreign car stopped near our fence, and a tall man of about forty came out of it. "Please, Platon Olegovich is waiting for you! His voice was just as authoritative. Sure, if you work for the worst monster. A mad demon with eyes scarier than night. We drove along the glittering roads of Peter. The bright headlights of cars were reflected in the dark, and Vasya was already asleep on my shoulder, and I still couldn't come to my senses. Where am I going? Why did life do this to me? I am overcome by a terrible excitement when we stop in front of a huge mansion. The doors open and I hear my brother's admiration: "What a Palace! Lily!"And then he ran into the house without even waiting for me. "Vasya, stop!" It was already late, I run into the hallway, where I see a lot of people. Is there a party here? He is coming to some kind of table, and takes the candy. I'm so ashamed. I have to go after him,and then I see a pair of sly brown eyes. He drinks alcohol and strokes his wife's cheek as she squirms in his arms. Why am I getting scared? My brother completely lost his conscience and began to eat all the sweets from the table. Platon Olegovich puts down the empty glass and moves in my direction, I start to move away from inertia. And his eyes are burning with a bright flame. "Lila, are you here for dinner?"Honestly, his smile is like Lucifer's. And that I will continue to remain silent? " I'm sorry, my brother is... He laughs and touches my left cheek, letting me know that nothing bad has happened: "Come on, baby, don't be afraid! Galya, take Lila and her brother to the kitchen, they need to be properly fed! Licks his lower lip and returns to his wife, who is already drunk... "Should I go home?" I shake like a hare, at which the servant Galya laughs: " Girl, well, where will you go at night looking! Don't worry Platon Olegovich has already asked to prepare a room for you!"She offers me a whole plate of sandwiches and we safely eat it with my brother. In the morning I wanted to go to the toilet, and I accidentally ran into Platon Olegovich. I was wearing only a nightgown. What a shame! "I'm sorry!" I was so embarrassed that he gave me a sly smile, and then said. "You're trembling all over, me, why are you so scary? Lila, after Breakfast, come to my office!" I could only exhale when he was gone. I return to the room on wobbly legs, but Vasya is not yet awake. Today is just Monday, we need to hurry to school. All the textbooks are Packed in a backpack, and I'm a passion, as I want to eat.But I know I'm in someone else's house! "Lilka, I so don't want to go to this school! They'll tease me about being an orphan there" My brother stretches in bed, and his stomach immediately rumbles. We go down to the living room, where Plato's wife is sitting at the table and leafing through a fashion magazine, she is so important that sometimes she does not notice anyone around. And then he appears. " Good morning! How did you sleep?" The smell of his perfume stars my whole body, I do not immediately respond, because I can not hear my eyes away. What am I doing? He might notice! "Plato, I need money!"Addresses to him his wife All, and I have a piece does not fit in my throat. "For this week you spent almost two hundred thousand rubles! I think we should to reduce your appetite!"Нis tone was too imperious for me to ask him to do that.
