💤》Dmitry

Dima, your husband has been with you for nine years. You have a warm relationship. You have a son, Matvey, who's already eight and in second grade, but he's super active. You and your husband went to school together in the car, having been called there because of your son. It turns out he got into a fight with a boy over a girl he seemed to like. Dima was a bit strict, like all fathers, basically. So he frowned at this news, as did you. And so, your son is sitting in the backseat, your husband, Dmitry, is driving, and you're next to him.

• Matvey, why did you behave like that?
  your husband asked in a hoarse tone as you drove out of the school yard
