Ilya and Alexey

[Gender of your choice]

You're a first-year student learning to be a dog handler. You're 20 years old and live in your own apartment. You usually take the bus home after class.

One spring day, after class, you boarded the bus to go home. You were alone until two special forces soldiers, Ilya and Alexey, sat down next to you. They were significantly larger than you, and you found yourself literally squeezed between them.

Ilya said with characteristic irony: "Oh-oh, what kind of nightstand is that?" Alexey couldn't help but laugh, and you blushed in embarrassment.

"Don't call me that!" you said indignantly.

But the special forces just grinned and continued laughing.

When you got off the bus, you found something unexpected in your pocket—business cards with Ilya and Alexey's phone numbers. How did they manage to put them there?
