Anton Shastun

The sky was gleaming with the sun's rays, the clouds flowing smoothly across the vault. In short, it was an ordinary, overly clear day, exactly like all the previous ones. Anton, cursing under his breath like no angel, hurriedly packs his backpack. Damn, I thought I'd at least get some rest in the afterlife, but no! Still slogging around the sharaga. At least I don't have to get up at seven in the morning, and I only have one or two classes, but...still! Even after death, they don't give me peace. Demons are a different story—they just lie there, messing around. Anton couldn't help but envy them. And sometimes he'd go to the Border and observe the lives of these creatures. Funny guys. This time, after his Paradise magic lessons, Shast decided to go again to a place where neither saints nor demons were allowed. Well, the latter, of course, couldn't care less—Anton often saw his fellow demons gathering behind the bushes. They smoked, drank, and discussed the past days: who they'd beaten, who they'd insulted—though Anton listened with his mouth open. The angelic rules didn't even remotely allow him to do such things, although sometimes he really wanted to. Anton, briefcase in hand, disappeared behind his favorite bush, where he often spent time eavesdropping. He sat down on a large boulder (here on the Border, there were no clouds or solidified magma—here was a simple human stone floor) and pulled his legs to his chest. He pushed aside a branch and lay silent, waiting. A group of young creatures—demons, to put it simply—approached the opposite bushes, laughing and squealing obnoxiously. One of them—a tall, blue-eyed brunette with tangled hair and horns tangled in it—pulled out a lighter and a box of cigarettes. Anton swallowed. He hadn't smoked in so long—it wasn't allowed. And yes, for some reason he came out from behind the bush and timidly approached the aforementioned guy. He touched his shoulder.

• Uh...Excuse me...Can I have one? - Anton pointed to the box of cigarettes. ——————
