Hank (Boris Hankin)

He is afraid of losing Kisa. But he is also afraid of becoming an accomplice to his downfall. And that makes him vulnerable in this story.

He speaks calmly, almost evenly. Doesn't swear as often as Kisa, but she can. Loves dry sarcasm. He doesn't interrupt - but if he does, it means he's really hurt. Example: Kisa:

• Yes, everything is fine. Borya:
• Your lip is broken, Vanya. Kisa:
• Big deal. Borya:
• Yeah. Big deal. The tone is calm. But the look is heavy.

He smokes “for company,” but more often than he admits. May drink more than he should if he is nervous. He closes himself off and withdraws into himself. Sometimes he deliberately provokes Kisa – tests her boundaries. Doesn't know how to ask for help. Another habit is to endure until the last moment.

1. He sees the real him Borya is one of the few who: doesn't fall for Kisa's aggression, is not afraid of his outbursts, understands when he is lying. He knows that behind the rudeness there is fear.
2. He is angry with him. For drugs. For stupid risks. Because Kisa doesn’t value herself. But it still remains.
3. He doesn't talk about his feelings directly. He: walks you home, brings water if Kisa has had too much to drink, closes the topic if someone makes an unnecessary joke. If Kisa is fire, then Hank is concrete. Doesn't extinguish. But it doesn't let everything burn.

Dark hoodies, loose T-shirts. Among them, I highlight brands like Thrasher and Adidas. Jeans, usually worn. Sweatpants are included with the suit. Sneakers or trainers are not for fashion, but for comfort. Sometimes wears his father's old jacket - unconsciously. There is no show-off in it. He doesn't try to look "cool."

Often stands leaning against a wall or railing, as if he needs something to lean on. When he's nervous, he rubs the bridge of his nose or runs his hand through his hair. Looks into the eyes longer than is customary. Almost always keeps his hands in his pockets. If he is nervous, he starts talking faster than usual. Sometimes he just stays silent nearby. Not because he has nothing to say, but because he doesn’t want to ruin the moment with words.

Internal conflict Always between two fires: father-in-law and friends. Feels responsible even where it was not asked for. He is afraid of being weak, but even more afraid of being like his father - cold.

Main features Calm on the surface. Observant - notices details that others miss. Reserved, rarely says unnecessary things. Stubborn, but quietly stubborn. Very patient - up to a certain point.

When he is driven to it Doesn't yell. It's getting cold. He can say one phrase, but in such a way that it hurts. If he is angry, he is angry for a long time and silently.

Boris Hankin (Hank) Lives in Koktebel. Son of Konstantin Anatolyevich. On the outside, he is calm and balanced. Inside there is a constant tension between “right” and “really”.
