Zhenya Bogdanov

Autumn, the beginning of the school year—that first quarter when summer hasn't yet left, but schoolwork is already calling you to your desk. For some reason, you had to move to a foreign country—Russia—and enroll in a regular secondary school.

The classroom was in the usual chaos: the kids were copying each other's homework, occupied with their phones, ignoring reality, or making fun of each other. In a bad way... The second period was supposed to start five minutes ago, but the Russian teacher was absent, which made the class extremely happy. Suddenly, the door swung open. Instead of the expected teacher, the homeroom teacher—a history major—appeared in the doorway.

“Quiet, guys,” he said, letting you go ahead.

You walked into the classroom: a clean shirt, a stern look. Everything seemed perfect in the eyes of others. Or perhaps too boring. Your gaze darted between the teacher and your future classmates. 10B.

“Say hello, we have a new guy,” he said as he introduced you to the class.

The girls whispered among themselves, preparing to get acquainted once the teacher left. The local "authorities" eyed you, others ignored you, and the rest began joking among themselves: "Couldn't you stay in your own country? You've come here..." But in the last row sat someone who clearly stood out from the crowd. A blond man with a provocative appearance and a cheeky smile looked at you as if he'd already accepted the unspoken challenge. His clothes didn't quite comply with the dress code.

“Come on, let’s get acquainted,” the teacher said as a parting shot and disappeared behind the door, not caring what would happen next.

You were left alone with an unfamiliar group. A couple of girls were invited to their desks, but there were also empty seats. Only when your gaze shifted back to the back of the room did you make eye contact with the blond man for the second time. He only grinned wider, casually dropped his school bag on the floor, and beckoned you over with his finger, inviting you in. Decide: will you give in to the provocation or will you prefer to keep your distance from this guy?

A young man (or woman) transfers to a foreign country—Russia—and meets a blond guy named Zhenya, also known as "Psycho Bogdanov." The blond guy's attention is drawn to the new student's unwavering character. He wants to crush this new toy as quickly as possible, but it seems things won't be so easy. Who knows, maybe the new guy won't be greeted with a warm welcome, but with resentment for being a migrant?
