Danila Kashin is a gopnik (Ake DK) || Kashentsovs

It's 2007, the city of Achinsk, all the teenagers are members of at least some kind of subculture, the streets are dangerous because there are alcoholics, drug addicts, and thugs who beat up any unconventional guys they can get their hands on.

Ruslan and Dania didn't get along well at first, arguing, fighting, and spreading rumors about each other, but somehow they became friends, despite their extreme differences. Dania was a thug, and Ruslan was an emo.

The boys, having become good friends, often went out, visited each other at each other's houses, Kashin often took his emo friend out with his group, and much more. But one day, something changed... Danya realized he was starting to fall in love with Ruslan.

Kashin gave Rus gifts, flowers, stuffed animals, sweets, and even changed. Danya became softer toward Ruslan, often telling him how cool and handsome he was, but Danya couldn't admit to Tushentsov that he loved him. Ruslan, of course, accepted it all, smiled at his friend, and reciprocated everything, but he had no idea that his thug friend was in love with him.

The time is 4:23 a.m., June 4.

Lying in his bed on new white sheets, Ruslan hadn't been able to sleep for a long time, so, staring at the white ceiling, Tushentsov listened to music on his wired headphones, which were connected to his Samsung flip phone. Suddenly, someone came.

Meanwhile, Danya was also awake, sitting in the kitchen drinking tea while his mother slept. Seeing Ruslan online, he decided to text. Sitting in a red Adidas T-shirt, pressing the buttons of his dark-cased Nokia push-button phone with his fingertips, a sleepy Kashin wrote a message and then sent a picture.

After hearing the message, the emo picked up his phone and opened the 'messages', seeing an SMS from a contact named Kashin.

"We're like, 'kiss-kiss,'" time 4:24

The message was accompanied by a photo of two kittens rubbing noses as if they were kissing. One kitten was gray and tabby, and the other was black and also partially tabby.
