opening her eyes and ears. She unbearably wanted to enter a technical institute! Once the school said that it is recommended to the technical institute, then you must go to the technical institute! And she will not fill up with chemistry, she will simply go to another department. The city was still a pedagogical institute, but he did not care about her at all, she did not like to teach others and did not like when she was written off.
Gone are the last school holidays Katerina. She passed the school final examinations, came to the institute, and there turned out to be several buildings. She went around all the buildings, found where they take the documents. A girl in a protective-colored skirt at a huge table sat down and began to fill in papers. I read in the admissions committee that the institute has four faculties. Long struggled with the choice between the two faculties.
Then a voice like God’s voice rang out above her head:
– Girl, fill in the paper on the mechanical faculty!
The person who said this disappeared into space. And Katerina sat and thought: what is this faculty? She obediently filled out papers on the mechanical faculty. In the admissions office she was told what exams will have to pass. They advised two weeks to attend preparatory courses before passing the exams. Math, physics, native language were to be handed over.
Katerina’s horse is mathematics. She picked up a collection of math problems and went to the house where a table with benches stood under maples. At this table, she solved all the tasks in a row in mathematics. Then she solved problems in physics and taught formulas. Neighbor, as an experienced mentor, said that if she missed some task, she would end up on her exam. Solved everything. She solved physics with less pleasure, but did not perceive her native language properly.
She really liked the preparatory courses. She enjoyed listening to lectures on familiar and unfamiliar topics at the same time. Lectures were held in the old building, and exams were taken in a new, beautiful building. On top of it was written: “Faculty of Mechanics.”
Huge assembly hall. Day of admission to the students. For the first time, Catherine’s heart said where she is.
After some time, the newly minted students were taken by cars to the state farm. We drove long in the steppe, brought to the farm “Merry Grove”. In the steppe were the same houses of recent construction. Behind the outskirts there was a flock of birches.
Seven girls on the first night were placed in a residential building. Inside is clean. At the entrance to the floor was a kettle. In the center of the room lay a tabletop. In the second room was a canopy. Young people slept under the canopy. The girls laid on the felt board. They remember the night. All night they were bitten and bitten by someone. Young under the canopy moved and moved.
The next morning, the girls were asked to change their habitat. Scratching the back of his head, a certain man freed the state farm for them. Place zlachnoe. A small house in which a huge number of empty bottles was hidden behind the stove. They put the students seven beds. All amenities in the yard.
Katerina chose a tall blond woman, a boxer who could protect her, but he had another boxer who beat her off, older and stronger. What did the girl with the second boxer do? She broke records for walks in the steppe after working on current.
Yes! All students worked on current. Grain raked. Once Katerina was sent to work in the kitchen. The kitchen fed students and tractor drivers. In the dining room fed those who were next to her. Food for those who were in the field was placed in a metal container that looked like a can. The containers were put on the car and taken away to the tractor drivers.
She was lucky: she saw a total solar eclipse in the state farm. With a new girlfriend, she went to the near railway station for candy. I had to go far. The road is country. No cars. Returned before dark, but suddenly it became dark dark.
The girls came up to the state farm and saw that all the students with smoked glasses were looking at the sun. Lucky everyone. They saw the halo of the solar corona. Students worked at the farm, and went home. Katerina then went to watch the championship of the city in boxing. On this, her boxing passion ended.
Once the institute group gathered in a private house of a fellow student who had a graceful figure, a fluffy mane of hair and long painted nails. First grade. Still little familiar with each other. Dancing brought together the young. At the evening, Katerina met a young man who promised her a wedding ring.
Chapter 5
Mathematics in the first courses was quite complicated. For unknown reasons, for the first year of study at the institute, Katerina was shown on TV seven times. She was shown in sports form and in an ordinary dress. They showed at the training session and at home, where a whole team of TV people came. She was interviewed. She was shown silent. She was twice made a marriage proposal with a rowan tree covered with red berries.
Katerina looked out of the window, as if she felt that they were waiting for her: she saw Grisha’s classmate. He was handsome and looked like an agent from a movie. Cloak. Belt. Usually, young people rarely use belts.
Now Grisha stood and dutifully waited for Katerina. She put on her shoes on a layered sole, a dark blue coat, shook a shock of hair that was scattered over her shoulders, and went out to meet fate. A tall, slender young man was standing by a rowan tree on which there were not yet leaves. It was April. He waited, pulling the belt buckle, emphasizing his thin waist.
His gray eyes were carefully looking at the fourth floor windows behind which Katerina lived. He was in love with a wayward and sensual girl. In my head flashed a walk with her through the snowy streets. Normal people sat in such a winter at home, and she walked with him through a light frost, laughed and talked. The winter ended abruptly, and now it was almost warm. Spring reigned over the land when there was no snow, and the leaves had not yet dismissed.
Together they went to the institute where they studied. The road went past the house under construction. The young man pulled the girl towards the construction site, above which the crane stood. From the future house, only the first floor made its way into the world like a snowdrop.
Gregory attracted Katerina. He hugged her, frantically pressed his lips to hers. He drank the nectar of love gently and passionately. She accidentally responded to a kiss, and then clung to his belt on a raincoat, as if she pulled a bit on a horse, and pushed her away.
She did not think that it was impossible to just walk to the institute with a guy. For her, it was a lesson or a call that guys grew up and walks are not for them.
When they came to the institute, fellow students were already in the audience, and their joint appearance was not left unnoticed. Most of all such an appearance Katerina did not like fellow student Vitaly. He was shocked, noticing the excitement of the couple, the girl’s disheveled hair. And lips? They were larger than normal sizes. A red vision flashed through his head as he went to a concert with her. On Katerina then scarlet dress shone. His memory was interrupted by the appearance of a teacher.
Stands with the kinematics of machine tools appeared out of the ground next to the black board. Students forgot about love and entered the world of machine tools entirely. Chic world of mechanics, if you understand it. The following two pairs were held at these machines: milling, turning, boring.
This is where the priority of the guys was undeniable. The girls only recorded the results of laboratory work, but there were few of them, in the sense that the girls on the course were significantly less than the boys.
A surprise on the last couple was a book about love in poses, which traveled from a desk to a couple. Someone brought it, hid it in a book with a machine on the cover and let it go by the students. Trapped cheers here and there were heard in the audience. Life went on or was just beginning.
At night, the machines bristled with tools and crowded around Katerina. They danced the dance of metal monsters. The milling cutter on the milling machine twitched like a shoulder during a dance. The girl woke up and thought
