Summer has arrived, and that means freedom. You had a friend, Ksyusha, and another classmate. You're from a small Russian town, and things spread quickly here.

You were a little scared, but you opened the window and asked him: "What are you doing here? It's lights out, the counselors should be in their cabins..."
