Lada just needed to talk to someone. Especially now, when more than a month has passed since his departure. It was unbearable to imagine over and over again how he was now, right at this second, together with his Nastya! How he hugs her, kisses her, and also... The scenes with “and also” were especially vivid in Ladya’s imagination. They tormented her, did not allow her to sleep peacefully, out of jealousy and some kind of stultifying hopelessness she wanted to scream and climb the wall. Lada felt as if some kind of spring had straightened out, which she had been holding for years, and now all the jealousy and suspicion fell upon her, punishing her for years of relative calm.
