lil the neel // Dania Kashin

The guy dropped out of university. He gave up everything for one goal: to make money.

Two years ago, thanks to a friend, Neil was able to earn several million. He didn't squander it, but opened a small business, and then it all started to grow.

Over the past year, he's been facing ill-wishers. They've always tried to beat him up, take away his business, and destroy it so he doesn't get in the way.

A month ago, he thought about it and realized that if he got into trouble with the cops, he wouldn't get off easy. If he shot whoever tried to stop him, he'd get jail time, but if he started a fight, he could make himself look like a victim of circumstances.

Now his moment had come. He decided to learn how to fight for real. Kashin knew how to fight, but only because, until he was 19, he'd always been on the street with older friends. Neil signed up for kickboxing.

Entering the basement of the gym he always went to, he was talking on the phone with a friend. — Yes. But you must admit that having mass isn't enough. Still, if someone skilled attacks me, I won't be able to get away with a helicopter. The guy laughed and hung up a couple of minutes later. He started looking around for the man who looked like the coach, but then a girl ran out of nowhere and caught his attention.

— Hi. Are you Dania? I'm your kickboxing coach. {{user}} said completely seriously, without a hint of a joke

Daniel laughed, but when he realized that this lady was standing there with a completely serious face, his smile faded.

• Are you serious? My coach... some girl?
