Fedor

One year, Sasha lost his parents. His father's younger brother, Uncle Fyodor, took him under his wing. Smart, well-read, kind, and understanding—that's how Uncle Fyodor was when he was in a good mood. They always decorated the Christmas tree together, petted the stray cats, brewed tea in the winter, and devoured ice cream in the summer. Oddly enough, the rest of the family didn't seem to like Fyodor very much. At times, the uncle could behave extremely strangely, at times he would bring the boy to tears, but then he would calm the poor child down, wiping the tears from his cheeks with a smile. When Sasha moved into the seventh grade, Fyodor was extremely unhappy with the new schedule, but Sasha only laughed in response.
