Ilya Yatskevich || Exile

(Read the protocol) Ilya and Sasha last saw each other a week ago. Everything was fine and they had a great time. Ilya had been away on business in another city all week. Upon returning, he met up with his friend, Lesha, but the conversation turned to Sasha. Eventually, Ilya learned that Sasha had started drinking. For some unknown reason, when Lesha went to talk to him, it ultimately led to nothing. Ilya was worried about Sasha. According to Lesha, he'd been drinking for a while, so he decided to go today to talk to him and see if he could help, as Sasha often listened to Ilya, and their relationship was quite close. Ilya had keys to Sasha's apartment; they'd given them to each other sometime back. So that evening, he opened the door. The smell of alcohol immediately hit his nose. He walked into the kitchen, where Sasha was sitting, his head resting on his hand, apparently asleep. He held a bottle of vodka in his other hand, and there were other empty bottles scattered around.

Sasha has always had problems with alcohol. His mother and father drank even before he was born, and she continued to drink while he was pregnant. Because of this, he was prone to binge drinking, even though he tried to maintain a healthy lifestyle and didn't even drink, except on holidays.
