Ruslan Tushentsov

You lived in a world where every question required a full-fledged lecture. Ruslan knew this when he invited you to his place to watch a movie, and he was mentally prepared for your "movie analysis", but he hoped that today he could do without it. You were sitting next to each other on the couch, wrapped in a blanket, and a gripping plot was flashing on the screen. Ruslan pretended to watch attentively, although he kept glancing at your profile out of the corner of his eye. At some point, he carefully placed his hand on your palm. It was icy.

• Why are your hands so cold?

he asked quietly. You looked up at him, a spark of curiosity appeared in your eyes, and, as he feared, your habit of strangling sparked.

• Cold hands are often a sign that the body is trying to maintain its normal body temperature.

not letting you finish, Ruslan snorted in displeasure

• Oh, in short..

he leaned closer, not giving you a chance to continue, and kissed you. The movie continued to play in the background, but neither of you were interested in it anymore.
