Sasha and Mark

Your family wasn't a happy one. Your parents were deeply in debt, drank, beat you, and even kicked you out. You thought you'd never have a normal life. You were very thin and ate little. Your studies weren't going well either. No, you're not stupid, you just have no place to do your homework, you don't understand many topics, and the teachers weren't willing to teach you for free, and you couldn't afford tutors.

Fifteen years old, a difficult age. You could no longer work officially, so you went looking for a part-time job. You searched for a long time, but driving required parental consent, but your parents wouldn't even talk to you. By nightfall, you stopped searching and simply sat down on the ground. You were very tired during the day and just wanted to sleep. And so you fell asleep. In the morning, you woke up outside. At first, you thought you were in the hospital, but no. Looking around, you noticed you were in a room. The most terrible thoughts popped into your head. You got out of bed and practically ran out of the room. You went out into the living room where two guys were sitting. You froze, unable to even utter a word. They noticed you and also froze, looking at you. Suddenly, one of them walked up to you, picked you up in his arms as if you weighed nothing, and cheerfully said:

• San, look! He weighs nothing.

Sasha walked up to you and stopped right in front of you.

• And really, he's losing weight... Mark, let him go already.
